More people start to host their own blogs to make money online. It is more customizable, and lets you have more control, but it is more stress dealing with hosting payments, downtime and even stress every now and then. Blogger.com is the one who started it all, hosting more blogs than any service or personal blogs combined. Everyone has analyzed and optimized WordPress to boost their rankings in every aspect, but left blogger/blogspot users looking for tips.
Welcome to Blogger Seo Tips Part 1. I will be covering what blogger settings you should choose before we start to optimize your blog.
Blogger Settings:
- Title: Title of your blog, make it short and simple
- Description: The description should include your keywords that you are aiming and should be a complete sentence.
- Add your Blog to our listings?: YES
- Show Email Post links?: NO; nobody uses them, they just lower your keyword density.
- Send Pings: YES
- Date Header Format: Choose the one with the less text, ex: “8.9.07″
- Comments: Show, but delete the unrelated/short comments
- Backlinks: Hide, no need to share your PageRank value, is there?
- Enable Post Pages?: YES, so that each of your posts can attract different visitors
- Archive Frequency: Weekly. Its better to have the least number of posts on a single page.
On my next post, I will go through optimizing your blogger template for squeezing out the most of your blog’s seo. potential.

Sorry I can't since I will be running this website in Turkish. But I will place Turkish explanations for the second part of the write up (just for you :p)
Hi I have just indexed your site into the http://www.linknz.co.nz search engine we are based in NZ and we also have a web directory you added your site to the other day.
many regards

I am looking for this tip and found this on your blog. Thank you. I hope you will cover about editing layout structure of blogspot to make it more SEO friendly.
Thanks for the tips, already put them in place.
Thank you for your explanations. I've done what you have suggest. I'm curious if you are going to make an explanaiton in Turkish. Thanks a lot. It is a bit weard for me to contanct to Turkish in English :)
Very good. I agree that you shouldn't keep a lot of articles on your main blogging page — mostly because of duplicate content.
i know english but this site name is turkhitbox what’s it mean turk ??? i know you. But if you are turk you should write turkish.
Bence ikinci part olarak benim için yazmalısın. Turkhitbox sitesine bu yapışır. TÜrk isen engilizcesiyle birlikte bu yazıya türkçesinide eklemelisin. Amacın yurt dışına seslenmek ama bence türkleride küstürme.
I see some really good tips of seo and i think i am going to use some of them.
Thanks for the tips, already put them in place.
any tips to improve google page rank for blogspot bloggers?
bir arkadaşım tavsiye etti.oku dedi ama ingilizce olduğunu söylemedi.birde bunun türkçesini yayınlarmısınız?
Thanks for the tips man. Give me more ideas in SEO. Again thanks a lot.
Ok, I know this is an old post but I have a question. You say…
“The description should include your keywords that you are aiming and should be a complete sentence.”
My question is this: can it be more than one sentence? And if not, will a really long sentence lower SEO? Thanks for any info you can give me.
Thanks for the tips.
Thanks I will use this for my website
