How to optimize your blog post titles by Replacing H3 with H2 For better ranking

Blog titles is strongly one of the secret ways to call up your blog in search enagine results, if properly optimized. In my last post, I discussed on how you can add Meta description to your blogger blog.

I find out lately that most new bloggers still use blogger platform, most especially those that are in other niches. But today, I will be talking on how you can optimize you blog titles by using H2 tag. This is a very important aspect of search engine which you need to know and most especially if you are still using blogger platform.

Headline tags start from H1 and go up to H6 in decreasing order of size. They play acute importance in your blog template optimization. Just as I explained in my previous post that Meta description is a way to tell the search engine what your blog is all about.

Headlines, bolded and highlighted texts catches attention. By default all blogger templates are made such that the H1 tag is given to Homepage Main Title, H2 is given to Blog Description or Header dates, sidebar headers and H3 is assigned for post titles.

Which invariably mean that your Post titles are second most important part of your blog after the main title. Sidebar titles and Post description are peanuts in comparison to your post titles. Do you know that it’s you post title that pings search engines for updates and they are indexed and as well crawled by robots.

When it comes to SEO, we often refer to post title as the KING while the post body which is the content is refer to as the Queen; funny right? So if the so called king is addresses with a wrong header tag (H3) instead of H2, then I think you should start looking for alternative to get search engine traffic.

How to Change Post Titles Heading Tags in Blogger Blogs

To change post titles default H3 tag to H2 heading Tag then follow the steps below,

Go To Blogger> Design > Edit HTML

2. Backup your template

3. Search for .post h3

4. and replace it with .post h2 (keep replacing that for all occurrences of .post h2)

5. Then search for,

<h3><data:title></data:title></h3>
And replace it with this,

<h2><data:title></data:title></h2>

6.Save your template and Congratulations the job is done.

How to Make you Post Title appear before your Blog Title in Search Engines

As for those using blogger platforms, I remember I said something one time like this, that we have lots of “behind the scenes” to blogging than what we see with our physical eyes. Do you know that one of the very cogent thing you must do after you have optimize your blogger’s blog is to be aware of the setbacks of blogger that will really slow down, or even hindered your traffic from booming like you’ve wanted.

This is actually a very simple and effective change, but it’s very important to your blog, in respect to the fact that you wanted to be a better blogger, and also you want to increase your blog’s visibility. I guess, this is what many people have not noticed, but I remember some few months ago when I initiated my blog posts for retweet on tweetlow, (a twitter platform that allows you to submit your post links for re-tweet). A friend actually pointed my attention to the fact that blog title (homepage) is coming before my post title, which actually made it difficult for people to tweet my post.

What are the side effects of your blog title coming before your post title?

1. However, since Google displays the first 66 characters, therefore due to the unnecessary occurrence of the blog title makes important keywords of the post title to be chopped off.

2. Therefore, you get low traffic to your blog.

Check the screenshot below to understand what I’m saying:

Before the application of the code

After you’ve applied the code

Therefore, how can you make your posts title comes before your blog title?

1. Go to your blogger> click on design> Edit template

2. Make sure you backup your template before any correction.

3. Search for this code in your template:

<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>

4. And replaced it with the below code:

<b:if cond=’data:blog.pageType == "item"’>
<title><data:blog.pageName/> | <data:blog.title/></title>
<b:else/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
</b:if>

5. Click on save, then you are done.

Now open you browser and search for your blog, then you now see that you post title will now come before you blog title.

Checkout Some Tips on how to promote your blog

The competition is high and the market is boiling, several millions of blogs are created on daily basis and still you are keen on not promoting your blog? Don’t mind me that was the exact statement one of my blogging mentors told me some few years back. Either you like it or not, directly or indirectly, you have to promote your blog or else you subscribers will flew off totally like a loose bird.

If you really want to go far in blogging industry, then promoting and marketing your blog should be one of the courses to learn in blogosphere. I’m actually proud to be a blogger and I’m not sure about you, therefore now finding it difficult to promote your is a case that will hunt at the long run.

Promoting your blog makes it popular, get you more traffic and a lot of your readers would be aware of its existence and what the blog is make up of. For you to promote your blog, all it takes is hard work, time management and determination. To be candid, it’s very easy to promote ones blog, but laziness has eaten some blogger’s marrow which makes it very difficult to do so.

Today, I will be sharing with you a million dollar worth of tips on how to promote your blog. Therefore, fasten your sit belt and let’s roll.

Get a High quality contents published

There are differences between contents on blogs and high quality contents. To me, contents are just ordinary article posted on a blog wherein when visitors get to the blog and read, he will just sign! Ok…. this means he/she just got information not a solution.

However, quality content to me is a type of contents that meet people’s demand, interactive, useful and also ever green. Whereby you can always go back to the blog every now and then to check on the blog again.

With this high quality contents, a lot of bloggers became famous with the way they write out of passion, as a reader, you were able to feel expressions, signs, as if they are talking with you in the real life. All because they were inspired to write. Therefore, I’ll advice you to learn the art of writing post that visitor will love and also search engines.

Blog Design

I guess some people don’t know that the way you look from the inside, is the way you look on the outside. You blog design really matters when promoting your blog. It’s a very good thing to be a web designer, but a very bad thing for you trying to show chase all you design ability on your blog.

With this your so called design talent now make your blog to look so wacky and jam-packed with odd color mixtures. There is nothing you can compare with simplicity in this world. A very simple and cool color helps in the promotion of one’s blog.

How come the pro bloggers are using designs that are simple? It’s like you never thought of it? This is simple because using a simple and cool design attracts more visitors and also reduces your blog speed. When there are too much of designs on your blog, it slows the page load down.

Therefore I’ll advice you to go for a cool color of design, not too conspicuous one.

Your attention is needed

Anytime a visitor comments on your blog and it takes you weeks to reply, when you never notify them that you’ll be out of the sphere for some time, and then your credibility is at stake. Try and give you attention to your readers by replying their comments as soon as possible.

Let me help you with my own style of doing things. I linked my email address with my smartphone, so anytime I have emails from my blog… I reply instantly because I have already linked my mails to the phone. I think this act has really built a very good relationship between I and my readers.

Therefore, I will advise you should check the method or if you think you have other better option which will make you to respond to your reader’s comment A.s.a.p., and then make use of it because quick response to readers comment help to gain their trust and confidence on your blog.

Facebook Fan page Very Essential

Facebook is undoubtedly the No 1 social networking company in the world, and a lot of bloggers have taken the very good use of Facebook to promote their blog. Therefore, get a Facebook fan page for you for your blog will definitely give your followers impression that you are an authority in your own field.

However, you can you your Facebook fan page to build a good relationship with your followers and also to drive turns of traffic to your blog by the posting your blog links on your page timelines.

You need to optimize your blog contents

I believe with the level of which blogging have reach, whenever we hear optimize the first thing that come to our head is SEO? This is very correct anyway, because the word “optimize” works hand in hand with search engine.

For you to optimize you blog posts, you need to have the knowledge of the keywords. We have two types of keywords: the genre and long tailed keyword. A very good example of these two keywords is: Genre keyword- Make money and Long tailed keyword- How to make money blogging.

You need to tune you blog posts in such a way that it will be search engine optimized, in other to rank very high in the search engine. We have lots of keywords that people search for on the web, which are related to you blog chosen niche.

Therefore, I’ll advice you to make keyword search before writing post. Note: be meek in your usage of keywords in other not to fall into Google penalty of cloud keyword density.

Use Social Media Buttons

It’s very advisable to have the social media buttons at the buttom of every published posts, in other to make sharing of your post to different social bookmarking sites very easy.
This is the easiest way to promote your blog, because your readers can easily share any of your post that met their needs for other friends to benefit.

Make Use of your Email Listing

A lot of bloggers have been using this means to promote their blog. Some of them believe this is a very good avenue to market their product, and this is why you need to work on how people will subscribe more to your bog.

Therefore, in other to make this method work very well, your emails need to be interactive, entertaining, precise and direct. And sending out too many emails in a week can push your readers to unsubscribe from your mailing list.

So I’ll advise that you should be very calm when you deal with your customers or readers through emails. I believe if you follow these above steps, then you are on the verge of promoting your blog in an audacious way.

Therefore, endeavor to share this post with your friends, like our page and follow us on twitter… your comment is highly welcome.Thanks

How To Check Your GTB Account balance Right From Your Room Via SMS

Guarantee Trust Bank(GTB), as we all know are one of the fast rising bank in Nigeria, in fact I wouldn’t want to rate them as the best because they have virtually captivate almost everybody to their banking system, in which you hardly see anyone without a GTB account despite the person having other bank accounts. Guarantee trust bank has again come with a big bang development.

We’ve all heard about their online banking, online transaction, but this time hardly have we heard about this new innovation. It’s a different phase of their development, though many might have heard about but not all have been able to channel it all because they never know the rudiment of the principle behind it. It saves a lot of time going and standing at the ATM machine, or probably going to the banking hall like some old mamas does.

And what exactly is this new tech? It’s how you can check you GTB account details and balance right from your phone, from your room via SMS. It’s this interesting? On several occasions that I’ve been to an ATM machines, where the person right in front of you will just get to the machine and after like a minute He/she is out, only to ask the person; are you done?

The next response would be Of course, I only came to check my account balance. Ignorance they say is a disease and knowledge we all know is power. If you take your time and follow the simple steps am going to highlight below, then getting to check your GTB account balance via your phone (SMS) will be as simple as following instructions. Let’s get started .

HOW DO I GET STARTED?
1. You need to compose your text message with this format: Bal (space) NUBAN Number; Note: NUBAN Number is the new account number given to you by your bank, its always a 10- digit Number.

2 And then you’ll send it to this number: 08100550000 and wait a bit for the reply. E.g Assuming my NUBAN Number is 0034313100,which is anyway, I will type: Bal 0034313100 and then send to 08100550000.
3. After this process, you account balance will be send to you with immediate effect.
But one thing you need to note is that:
– You network provider may charge you for the SMS, which most of the time is always N5 for all networks.
-Only the number you registered with, during the course of your opening of account with GTB can only be use for this process, if not you won’t get any reply.

I believe justice has been done to the issue of you going to the banking hall just to check your account balance. And if you’ve enjoyed and learnt one or two things from this post, kindly share the post and tell others about our blog. We need your comments. Thanks.

HOW TO BECOME A BETTER BLOGGER

Was in a deep discussion with my brother, when my mind bumped on an idea and Immediately I picked up my system and started writing this post.

He (My brother) told me something that is very applicable to virtually everything you find yourself doing in this world, not only as a blogger, so also as an individual, engineer, be it an entrepreneur, or a web developer, and also internet merchant…. so many like that. And what was all this talking and conversation about? It’s simply on how to become a better person.

Read: Learn how to Write A SEO friendly Contents

Hmm! immediate I capped it and my brain booted that I can make something out of this topic. And this is exactly while am here to talk to you on how to become a better blogger.

Guess you are reiterating the words? That was also exactly how I did. “How to become a better blogger” Some would say am I not already a better blogger? After all, am making $10000 in a month, why others would say don’t mind this man, because am already a better and even a pro blogger because my today’s page view was 25,000.

Do you think all these stated illustrations make a person a better blogger? No, is the answer. Making millions of dollars, or have thousands of people visiting your site daily never makes you a better blogger.

After several thinking and findings, I came to a shocking conclusion of how to become a better blogger, which many might find very lovely, why others might flair up the gong, but any which one you fell to; take and make very good use of what you gained.

Below are the several views gathered on how you can become a better blogger.

Read:How to promote your blog

BECOME AN EXPERT IN YOUR AREAS

Do you even know some people actually started blogging because they heard that people are really making money from blogging? Do you think blogging is majorly for making money?

Today I was discussing with a fellow blogger and an issue came up there when he told me that, “I know blogging is all about someone’s daily encounter” Is that true? In fact, to me that was a very good explanation of what a blogger is.

Are u really expert in the niche of the blogging you took? Or probably most times you call a friend who is a web developer to help you with java script on your blog, because you can’t handle java script.

Most times, am dazzled with the hand work of some bloggers, the likes of Mybloggertricks, justnaira, this guys are a typical example of been perfect and expert in someone’s field of specialization. Likewise so many others who we couldn’t mention in this post. So been an expert in what you do really make you a better blogger than thousands out there.

NEVER YOU COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

Wow! In fact this was actually one of the things that almost drove me out of blogging some few years back. All because I had a friend who was very good at spicing up a blog and me, I only knew some fundamentals, and instead of me to build on the fundamentals I’ve already got, then I begin to compare myself with him to the extent that I almost fade away.

Comparing yourself to other bloggers is very bad. Imagine you as a newbie, and you are comparing yourself with someone that has been in blogging for 5 years…guess you wanna crash.

One Secret you don’t know is that you will always be doing better than the other guys, why the other guy will always be doing better than you.

A man said “Comparing yourself or your success to other people is not only pointless; it’s a sure-fire way to feel like shit”. Face what you are doing, how is it going? Are you progressing? That should be you uppermost target, not others.

WILL YOU LIKE TO EMBRACE THE STRUGGLE?

Yea! Big question that many blogger wouldn’t like to like to answer, and majorly which even allows and gave the starter the gut to start bidding for money when he has not yet gotten recognition.

Anyway, some blogger were so fortunate as at the time when monetization wasn’t so hard like this, so many things that got my attention nowadays is when you just get emails from a new blogger and tell you that please Mr Yourblogcoach “ can I apply for Ad Sense tomorrow?” Because I opened my blog yesterday, the next thing am always doing is to burst into laughter, blogging has a race, struggle which everyone needs to engage and probably it now depends on you.

Some always get light struggle while others get it a large. But anyway, struggling or “hard times “is a normal part of self-development or doing anything worthwhile in life.

But most guys don’t want to struggle at all. But remember one thing that “You are not a failure just because you don’t succeed at every new thing you try. The only true failure is to quit trying.”

I’ll like you to comment and share this post to some other people who you also think will benefit from this article as you have right now. There is a word that says “There is love in sharing”, so I wouldn’t want it to be that you’ll only benefit from this, why others wished to. So please share, like, tweet, and make this post go viral. Thanks
