Blogging is indeed exciting especially when you have so many interesting ideas to share to your readers. It is easy to set up your own blog for free. However, don't get too excited especially if you plan to increase traffic and market your blog. Aside from posting quality contents, one has to know about SEO (search engine optimization) in order to gain more readers for your blog and maximize your blog's potential. I do not have much idea regarding SEO. I am just lucky that there are fellow bloggers who are willing to share their ideas about SEO stuffs. I still have so many things to learn. Right now, I can say that my blogging experience is great. I learn several things from expert bloggers and get to connect with them as well.
Anyway, this blog of mine is almost three months old and still I experience several blogging problems, both technical and SEO problems. So, I decided to write those problems I encountered while blogging. This would serve as my guide when I set up another blog. Here is the list of my blogging problems and some solutions I made. Still, I have so many things to resolve. Hopefully, I could address these soon.
1. Feedburner Stealing My Backlinks - this one had already been resolved and I made a separate article for this and how I corrected the problem with the help of a fellow blogger.
2. Making Post Title Appears Before Blog Title - The same fellow blogger who helped me with the problem about feedburner also informed me regarding this problem. I am so glad that he is very helpful. I will make a separate review on this soon. I already corrected this problem. It would take some time though before I can see better results once Google and other search engines would reindex those previous articles I made on this blog.
3. Alt Tags on Images Posted on My Blog - I am still trying to figure out this problem. I found out about this when I checked the status of my blog site. It says there that alt tags on images posted on any blog is relevant to tell search engines about what my page is all about. I got only 19 images which have alt tags and around 70 images got no alt tags in them.
4. Internal Pages Have No Page Descriptions - I do not have any idea about this, still trying to figure out how to resolve this problem...or is this really a big deal for SEO? Anyone???
5. Social Subscriptions - I know social networking sites are helpful to increase audience in any blog. I would work out on this soon.
6. Archive Page - I already had an archive section for my older posts. However, this problem came up when a particular paid to blog site that I applied for required their applicants to have an Archive Page on their blogs. I read blogs regarding putting up Archive Page, still I have trouble setting it right.
This would be all for now. I know there would be more things to learn and explore in blogging. Gradually, I would be able to resolve these problems in due time.
Feedburner Stealing My Backlinks

FEEDBURNER STEALING BACKLINKS??? I really do not have any idea regarding this stuff until a fellow blogger emailed me about this problem. I have been leaving some comments on his interesting and informative blog for a few days now. Then, I was surprised when he informed me that my CommentLuv link on his blog is giving a link back to FeedProxy.google.com instead of a backlink to my site. I really do not have any idea what he was talking about at that time. Fortunately, he was kind enough to send me a great article that would explain thoroughly on how to rectify my problem on feedburner settings. The site link is http://www.synactable.com/
Image via CrunchBaseDue to this incident, I learned how important backlinks are. Those established webmasters and bloggers may give credit to any blogger who would frequently visit or comment on their blogs. This thing is a great advantage especially to newbie bloggers like me. This would mean that those search engines would give a higher status from the quality backlinks one would get from those webmasters. I also learned that a blog site may gain higher status if you get quality backlinks from blogs with the same niche. So, in my case, I was lucky enough to get quality backlinks from some established websites which has the same niche as mine. When you get more backlinks, your blog site will also improve its rank. Remember, these backlinks are freely given by the site administrators especially when they appreciate your efforts on taking the time to read and browse over their sites and leave interesting comments.
How about you? Have you ever encountered such problem with Feedburner?

WriteArticlesGetPaid.com Review

One of the fastest growing trends today on the internet world is of course doing some home-based online jobs. Online writing is very common among those home-based online jobs. There are several online companies that offer article writing to aspiring writers. One of these several writing website companies is www.writearticlesgetpaid.com.
First of all, the website is quite easy to maneuver. You simply register, key in your chosen username, first name, last name, email address, PayPal account and then the password. Then you click, register and you are ready to go. You do not have to wait a confirmation message from your email. You can now log into the platform with your username name and password. Once you successfully logged in, you can start writing by hitting submit button on the topmost part or click Write A New Article part. You can choose different keywords. You have to write a minimum of 400 words per article. You need to use the given keyword in your written article. The keyword density should be around 2-6%. You have to be certain that you utilize the given keywords or else your articles will not be accepted for submission. Anyway, there is a counter that would notify you on the number of words that you have keyed in so far. Anyway, to make the story short, it is just so easy to use the platform. Even high school students can do it all alone.
My experience with this site is just satisfactory. I cannot say that it is good or bad, just in between. I joined this site through a friend of mine. I started writing articles just last July of this year. I wrote around 3 articles during the first week of my registration. Those articles were all approved and at the end of the week, I got my payment through my PayPal account. From then on, I continuously write on writearticlesgetpaid.com. During those times, I could write around 6-8 articles per day. They decline articles which have low keyword density, plagiarism or some grammar errors. I was given a second chance to revise those declined articles. If you could not pass the revision part, then your article would be deleted from your account permanently. Anyway, each article costs $1.25. I got prompt payments every week. The good thing is that they actually pay.
However, on the negative aspect, I experienced several flaws from the site. Sometimes, I could not access the site due to some technical glitches which is quite frustrating. There is no contact information on the site to report regarding some problems. In short, I was on my own. In addition, there were times that it would take two weeks or almost a month for my articles to get approved. The amount per articles is quite measly if you are an experienced writer. However, for a newbie, it is a good training ground for you. The writing is just freestyle. You need to research on the given keywords. Now, on this part, it is quite difficult to come up with a good and grammatically correct article. You have to make used of these keywords several times in your written articles. Here are some strange keywords that I encountered while writing on this site:
- Complete Blood Count Normal
- Meet People Online Free
- Short Children S Stories
- Halloween Punch Recipes Alcoholic
Those are just some of the keywords that are simply difficult to compose. I also heard some feedback from friends that they tried using multiple accounts since their previous accounts were not accessible anymore. All in all, the site is legitimate but then again, there are just too many technical problems which leave the writers frustrated. I suggest that the company should try to make some revisions in order to address the problems.
Anyway, if you have any experience you might want to share regarding writearticlesgetpaid.com, feel free to share your ideas. It is good to bring important information for everyone.

Update: (Dec. 17, 2011) - I checked my account on writearticlesgetpaid.com just this morning. I could not access the site anymore. There might be some technical problems again. It usually happens. Anyway, for almost three months of work on this site, I was able to earn around US$500. I cashed out my earnings through PayPal.
Update: (January 10, 2012) - I checked the site and it is working fine now. It can readily be accessed. The problem is that there are no available articles to be written at this moment. If you are a writer on this site, just check it from time to time. You may be able to grab some keywords soon.
Latest Update: (August 03, 2012) - I stopped writing for this site. They keep declining or removing my articles without valid reasons. The payments are always delayed. So, I suggest you find better legitimate writing sites.
