We know the importance of backlinks for every site and blogs. The main objective behind making backlinks is to get good page rank. Before every page rank update we try to make more backlinks. It is good for our blog. Good page rank will help in getting more guest posts and direct advertisements.

But some bloggers or site owners doesn't think much about the safety features while making backlinks. They try to buy links and opt link exchanging etc. These tricks are bad seo and are against webmaster guidelines. So we must know the safe ways to make backlinks. Following are the safe ways to make backlinks.

Guest Posting 

This is the best and safe way to make backlinks to your blog. Post some guest posts on different blogs with your blog url. Try to post your guest post on good page ranked blog because it will help in increasing your blog page rank.

And select blog or site having the same blog niche as your site or blog. Because in that case, it will make the readers to visit your site or blog as well. In other cases, the readers might not bother to visit your blog. So it is always preferred to post guests posts on sites with same blog niche as yours.

Blog Commenting

This is an easy and fast way to make more backlinks, and more bloggers are adopting this way to make backlinks. Moreover, posting comments on other blogs will help in getting more traffics.

Why are most people opting blog commenting to make backlinks? Every guest post that we post may not be accepted by the opposite party. Hence, commenting on the same blog will help in getting links easily. But most of the top ranked blogs may not accept links on the comment which will make posting guest posts compulsory.

Social Networking Sites 

Today, there are many social networking sites on the internet. So you can make backlinks to your blog by signing up in social networking sites. These sites are top ranked sites. So getting links from these sites will help your blog to get good page rank. Moreover, sharing your post on these sites will help in increasing your blog traffics.

Don'ts of blogging. A blogger must never do these things

A blog beginner does more mistakes on their blog. Consequently they are forced to stop their blogging career. Most of them don't know how to maintain a blog. They are unaware of what to do and what not to do. They start a blog with some good works and more bad works. That's why most of the bloggers stop blogging career in their early stages.

It is more important for a blogger to know the don'ts of blogging than the dos of blogging. Being unaware of what not to do in a blog causes the blogger to make more mistakes. Most of the bloggers only think about what is to be done to make a good blog, which is good. But at the same time we also need to know more about what is not to be done while blogging. Here are some basic things you must understand.

Copying Content 

Most of the blog beginners are doing this which will have a very bad effect on the blog. They copy content form other blogs or website and simply post it to their blog. This is is a big mistake.

This is one of the main points to be considered while starting a good blogging career. Never copy content from other blogs or websites. In case you have the habit of copying content then your blog will be removed from the search result by Google. Also you will never get good traffics.

Fake Information 

Writing and providing information to readers is important  you must know about what exactly you are writing. Make sure that the information provided is true and useful.

Because, if you are giving fake or wrong information you will face more problems from it. Also google will ban your blog from search result. So write what exactly you know, and avoid giving wrong information to readers.

Avoiding Your Viewers

Never avoid your viewer. Every viewer is important to you. Even if you have many readers you must give good place to all your readers. Other wise they will not visit your blog and your return visitors rate will decrease.

Reply and respond to your readers when they ask or request for any information through your blog comments. By the way you can also attract more blog viewers.

Thinking Blogging Is Only For Making Money

If someone asks you, "Why you start a blog?", what will be your answer? Most of you will have the same answer "Just for making money ". Money making is the reason why more blogs are coming up every day.

But never think blogging is all about making money, Just think that making money is only a part of blogging. Otherwise you will concentrate more on increasing your blog earnings and very less on your blog traffics which will have negative effects on your blog. So give first preference on increasing blog traffics.

Benefits of reading other blogs having same blog niche as yours

Whether you are a new blogger or an old blogger, you are not just visiting and reading your own blog, but also others blog. This will fetch us a lot of benefits. So almost all the bloggers continues to visit others blog. This means that there are a few bloggers who do not bother to visit other blogs. Hence this article is for those who do not visit others blog. In my honest opinion we must visit other blogs too. Some of the benefits that can be derived from visiting other blogs are discussed below.

Getting New And Trendy Information

If you are not visiting other blogs having the blog niche same as yours, you will never get any new and trendy information. Why must you post new information? New information are posted to create good impression.Google loves new and trendy content. And posting new and valuable content will increase your blog traffics.

At the same time more number of visitors will be attracted to your blog. It will automatically increase your blog revenue, your blog traffic rank  etc.But never copy the content from others blog. Just understand the topic and write it correctly in your own words as per your understandings.

Clarifying Your Doubt

All are not perfect. Every one may not know everything. Every blogger will have their own doubts about a particular topic. But some times we will not be able to clear the doubts by only reading the articles from a blog. At that time we can ask the article writer or founder to know more about it. This can be done through comments or emails.

Getting New Widgets

Bloggers use different types of widgets for their blog to make their blog user friendly and attractive. By visiting other blogs you will see new widgets that they have added on their blog. You can use the widgets in case you like any. If they have not written about the widgets, then you can ask the blog founder for the same.

Good Contacts With More Bloggers

If you are visiting other blogs you will get in contact with more bloggers. You can contacts with more than one bloggers from one blog through guest posts and comments. Also you can share your ideas and information with them and also ask them to write a guest post on your blog.

Most of the adsense ads publishers get their first check after one year or so because their earnings is increasing gradually. Why is your blog earnings increasing slowly? The reasons can be-

Low Blog Traffics

Blog traffic is the main reason behind the gradual increase in your blog earnings. This is a normal thing. Without any visitors you will not get any ad clicks and page impressions. Nevertheless, you must have good traffics to get more earnings if you are using adsense or any other alternatives and affiliate marketing. Your blog must have a minimum of 1000 page views per day.

So just work hard to increase your blog traffics. You can increase your blog traffics by promoting your blog post through several ways.

Low Quality Content 

We bloggers always say "Content Is king". Yes it is true, It not only means a simple content, but a high quality content. If you are not posting high quality contents on your blog, you may face many problems like the Google effects. And also the low quality content on your blog can bring down your earnings. People will never prefer to visit your blog if your blog content is of low quality. And consequently your earnings will increase very slowly.

Incorrect Ad Placing 

Placing of the ads on your blog page is important for getting more earnings. If you are placing ads in correct place on your page you will get more clicks. You may refer the blogs of top bloggers to know the exact way of placing an ad. By doing that you will have better idea of where to place ads on your page.

More Ads On Single Page

5 Things to think before registering a domain name

Most of the bloggers start their blogging career from blogger platform or WordPress platform. Not willing to buy a domain name, they always use free service in the beginning. Only after their long experience of blogging they think about buying a domain name. And they go on with their plan of buying a domain name matching the blog name without thinking much about it.  . But this is not the best way of starting a blogging career. You must consider several important things before buying a domain name.

First of all you need to understand the importance of buying the domain name before publishing your first post. If you are changing your sub domain to custom domain after several months of using your blog, your site traffics will drop down and you will have to work hard to make more backlinks for your new domain name. Likewise, think about the following 5 things before registering a domain name.

Domain Name Length And Spelling Error

This is one of the common mistakes committed while registering a new domain name. That is spelling error. Even I had committed the mistake while registering my domain. So i can tell you, think before selecting a domain name.

And also avoid selecting long name for your domain. For example try to avoid domain names like "www.exampleofmynewdomainname.com". Just select short domain name like "www.example.com". It will help the viewers to remember them easily. And also avoid using tough words or those words that are difficult to pronounce to make the domain name.

Top Level Domain Extension

Domain name extension is another important thing to consider before registering a domain name. Mainly there are three top level extensions which are .com,.org and .net. Try to select any of these extensions for your domain name.

Register For Many Years 

Most of us buy a domain name only for an year. There are many reasons behind this. It can be lack of  enough money to buy domain for many years or it can be lack of certainty in continuing their site for long years. Any ways, if you are taking your site  seriously you must purchase a domain for at least 2 or 3 years.

Because search engine will always notice your domain expiry date and if you are registering for one year Google will list your domain under spam. So buy domain name for a minimum of 2 years.

Avoid Exact Match Domain Name

You must avoid exact match domain. Exact match domain means it is an exact match of top level domain for example "www.facebook.com". If you are registering a new domain name as exact match of facebook ex: "www.myfacebook.com", it will get effects of Google EMD update. So just avoid exact match domains as much as possible.

Try To Include Keyword On Domain Name

Adding keywords on your post title and post content is important for seo. Likewise including keyword in your domain name also can be a big benefit for SEO. But the keyword should be related to your site's topic. If your site is about blogger tricks you can add single words like blog or tricks in your domain. It will help your site SEO.

5 basic skills to become a good blogger

Most of us start blogging without thinking more and only after a few months we begin to think more about blogging. Some of the bloggers are getting in the top positions of blogging and some of them are discontinuing blogging after few months.
People have interest and ability to become one among the best in their selected field, whether it is career or arts or anything. So a blogger also need to have some few abilities or skills to become a good blogger. The blogger's interest in blogging is one important thing above all. A person should never enter the field of blogging without interest because it will not serve any purpose to you. Moreover, keep in mind that blogging is not a source of quick money. You need to put in a lot of hard work to get money.

Reading Skills 

Majority of us had hated reading as a student. Our teachers and parents had always forced us to read. And we never liked it. But in blogging you should never hate reading. This is one of the important skills that a blogger must possess. You cannot move forward with a  blog without reading.


How reading ability helps a blogger? if you are a person who considers reading as a lethargic activity, then it will fetch you a lot of trouble in blogging. You will lack  information and you will not get any new and latest posts to  update in your blog. A blogger must read other blogs or sites for getting new and valuable information, and also search for new information on the internet. So ability of reading is a big part of blogging.

Writing Skills 

A blog and a blogger cannot exist without possessing writing skills. A blogger must have the ability to write well. While writing a blog post, write it for others and not for yourself or for the search engine. Write with simple words so that all levels of people can understand your article. Avoid writing 1000 and above words in an article. Keep track of the word limits. Nevertheless, people will always hate reading posts with more number of words or with large content. But more number of words and large content is good for SEO.

So when you are writing a blog post consider these things also. Try your best to present the information well.

Listening Skills 

What is the role of listening skills in blogging? Listening skills is one of the important ability that a blogger need to have. You will not succeed in blogging without listening skills. No blogger can know everything. So listening to others will always help in getting more new information. The size of the information does not matter. But quality and completeness matters.

Listening to other bloggers and media will help you to increase your blogging skills. And you will get more facts and information about your blog niche. So always listen when others are talking. And grab what you need.

Have Good Patience

If you have good patience you can always succeed in any filed. So a blogger must have good patience. There will be times when your blog traffics and earnings will decrease. Neither feel nervous nor disappointed about such things. And never discontinue working on your blog. Just wait for some more time with patience.

Many bloggers discontinue blogging in very short time. The main reason behind this is the lack of patience. So if you want to become a good blogger you must have good patience.

Management Skills

We know how a manager performs their career and how important they are in a company. Similarly, a blogger is the person who manages their blog. You need to have good ideas about managing your blog. The time when you are posting or making links or designing or arranging pages etc. And always promote your blog post. There are many commitments in managing a blog. So understand all those things and keep blogging.

Policies that should be strictly followed by an adsense beginner

Normally adsense is described as the money generating machine. It is true. Adsense is a money generating machine, but only for those who use adsense carefully by following all the polices. Such bloggers can make more money from it. Otherwise their adsnese account will get banned. And they will never get a new adsense account on the same payee name.

If you are a beginner in adsenese you must read the policies and follow all of them strictly. But bloggers neither read them nor do they follow these policies. Only after their adsense account gets banned, they start thinking about the policies. First of all you must understand Google is a big company and they know everything. People can't cheat them easily. So just follow the policies for keeping your money generating machine for life time.

Never Click Your Own Ads 

Clicking their own ads is the biggest mistake an adsense beginner do and due to this their account gets banned. A beginner always think about ways to make money quickly. And in the first day of getting adsense account itself they start clicking their own ads. And the second day their adsense account is banned.

So never click your own ads. It will surely not serve you any good. There are no secondary things that you can do to get back your adsense account. So you must believe in these polices

Never Ask Others To Click Your Ads

Some adsense beginners avoid clicking their own ads. But they ask their friends or others to click the ads. Some time they give ad title as "click on the ads" or "for get more info" etc. These activities also will get your adsense banned.

Even if you are asking your friends living in other states or other countries Google will catch your invalid activities. So never do these tricks for getting ads clicks.

Avoid Adding Adsense Ads On Violated Sites 

You must check if your site has any violated content or not, and if any copyrighted things are added or not. And also follow the Google webmaster guidelines. If your site have any violated content just remove the content and also check your webmaster tools. If they are showing any messages about your site being under Google violation, just remove the ads from your site otherwise your adsene account will be banned.

Third Party Advertising Providers Ads

You can use third party advertising provider's ads with your adsense ads on the same page. But there are some conditions that apply for this. Never select advertisers providing ads like adsense ads. In case of any similarities on the third party advertisers ads and google adsense ads, then it is against the adsense policies. It may also become a reason behind your adsense account getting banned.

Ask Question To Your Readers

Why is alexa rank so important for blogs


Alexa is the web information company which gives full details about a website including its traffics stats,search analytic,site audience,bounce rate,backlinks and many more. And the alexa also developed tool bar for giving better ranking information. Alexa gives the rank on each domain. They shows the global rank,country level rank and also district rank. So it is more helpful for all site or blog owners.

But some of them are never believe the ranking strategy of alexa.They only believe the Google page rank. But in my opinion alexa rank is also important just like Google page rank.You must work hard for improving your alexa rank. Because the alxea ranking is based on several strategies like page views,backlinks,bounce rate etc. Google ranking is also based on almost these strategies. But alexa ranks updates daily.

Alexa rank is important for blogs, isn't it?

Yes, because most of the bloggers understand their blog popularity based on their alexa rank and obviously based on their Google page rank also. So your blog alexa rank is more important like google page rank.

If you are giving any ad space for direct advertisement, you must have a good alexa rank. Most of the companies are giving direct ads based on site alexa rank.

Alexa rank helps to develop blogging interest in bloggers through their daily updates. Most of the bloggers check their blog alxea rank daily. If it is increased they will happy. So in order to get a good alexa rank all bloggers are working hard.

If your blog rank is 100k, alexa will start to show a graph of your blog. So getting 100k rank is also important. Try to work hard for getting rank upto 100k. After that it will automatically increase your rank. In my opinion 100k can be considered as a better alexa rank. Now I am also trying my best to reach 100k.

In alexa you can also understand the number of backlinks, the backlinks are showing up to 100 after which it will count but will not show the name of the linked sites. Anyways, the count will help more for predicting next Google page rank.

How to increase your alexa rank ?

 #. Claim your blog to alexa

 #. Add alexa widgets to your blog.

 #. Add alexa toolbar to your browser

 #. Make more backlinks.

 #. Post good and quality content

 #. Update your blog daily

 #. Ask readers to post reviews

These are the basic things you must do. Then the rank will increase automatically.

Google panda and penguin effects checking tool


We, bloggers always think and seek for a genuine and valuable tool for checking Google panda and penguin effects. There are more scam tools available on the internet. We all try to avoid those scam type checker and always wait for a new and better one.

Google panda and penguin update is one big headache for all bloggers. They always scare the bloggers with the upcoming updates. And now the latest panda update 4.0 is almost complete. Also the bloggers are waiting for a big algorithmic change in the Google penguin updates. So this is the time making most of the bloggers confused about the effects. Will the algorithm change effect their blog or not? This has made them to check their Google analytic a number of times.Here is a tool for checking Google panda and penguin effects.

Panda And Penguin Effects Checking Tool 

The tool is developed by Baracuda. This is not based on the checking domain name. This tool works with your Google analytic details. So If you want to check your panda effects you must have Google analytic account with your blog.

Before the launch of this tool I had been checking panda effects through Google analytic. Not just me, most of the blogger  do the same thing. If any traffic is dropped in the analytic on the panda updated date, then it means that the blog is caught by Google panda. So we confirm the effects by making this check.


The same is happening in the penguin tool as well. Just go to penguin tool and login with your Google analytic account. Allow penguin tool to access your analytic data by. Then it will automatically collect your analytic data from your Google analytic and show a graph same as your Google analytic. But there is some difference here. Inside the graph you can see all the updates of Google panda,penguin and other like a cross line. It shows all the updates.

So you can check the line whether the traffic is dropped or increased on the line. If traffic is decreased you are under the effects of either panda or penguin. And for minute checking just drag or select the part you want see which will zoom the particular part. You can check your graph properly when zoomed. In contrary to the name of the tool, it is not confined to the penguin updates but it also shows panda and Google's other effects. So I must say this is a good and proper checking tool for bloggers and website owners.

If you are not managing blog in a proper way, it will not make a good blogger and a blog.

When you have made a blog and if you are taking your blogging life serious,  you must follow some important things.First of all you must know how to mange your blog. Here I am writing about how I manage my blog. So read the following.

Publish A New Post Daily

The reason why you need to publish a new post daily is that when you are publishing daily, your blog will be indexed in Google search quickly because your blog is crawled by Google everyday. So your blog needs to be up to date. And also publishing a new post will increase your alexa rank and google page rank. And by this way your blog traffics will also increase.

Please note that mere posting some content daily is not enough. Because your post should  have a good quality. Sometimes making a quality contented post will take one or more days. So understand well about your post and after that write and publish.

Daily Check Webmaster Tools 

Checking Google webmaster tool is good for your blog. Because google webmaster tool shows everything about your blog. It shows your blog health,traffics,crawl error, Malware etc. In case if any errors are shown, understand the error and clear it.

Most of them are using google webmaster tool because it is free and it will show all types of warning messages and error reports. So checking webmaster tool daily is must to make your blogging life more easier.

Think Only About Blog Traffics

Most of the bloggers think only about money. First they check their blog monetize tab and their daily earnings. If it is more than the previous day, they will be happy but if it is below than the previous earning they will be disappointed and they tend to loose interest to publish a new post. This is not good for a blogger. Never think about your earnings. Just leave that and start thinking about your blog traffics. Try to increase your blog traffics.

If your blog traffic is decreased than previous day or week, think more about it. Not for your earning. When your traffics is increased your earning also will increase automatically. So always give first preference to traffics.

Check Blog Comments And Give Reply 

You must check your blog comments daily, and approve it. Never approve any spam comments as it may effect your blog. If you are responding your incoming comments quickly, your commentators will be happy to commenting on your blog.

And also reply blog comments. If you are not replying, readers will not be interested to comment on your blog. Try to give reply to all commentators. Also reply to the questions asked by the readers if any.
