Get Great Ideas For Your Content Blog

Get Great Ideas For Your Content Blog

easily get distracted and everything seems to have already been written! To make matters worse, requirements to content concepts and titles have become much more complicated. With the growing importance of referral traffic, we now have to rethink title strategies and how they appear on social sites.

 

 

Check your Comments Section

When you let people share and comment on your site, you could end up with some great blog post ideas. Your readers might ask for more information about a specific item you didn’t cover clearly in your first post, or they might share their own opinions about the topic, which could make your fingers itch to write. Reading those bits carefully could make your blogging much easier.

Check out the Competition

According to 2014 stats, more than half of all small businesses don’t have a website. As a result, your top competitor may not have a blog that you can follow. But that same competitor might be active on social media sites like Twitter and Facebook. The posts you find there could give you great ideas about topics you should cover.

If you grab an idea from someone else, be sure to tweak it or amend it or somehow make it your own. Stealing outright could get you in hot water, both with your competitors and with Google. But borrowing a good idea could help you to come up with the story idea that’s been eluding you.

Yelp Pages

People with reputation management problems are likely accustomed to the idea of using Yelp as an early warning system. When they see a poor review pop up, they know they must get to work generating content that either refutes or explains the complaint. But Yelp can also help you write blog posts about issues people either like or have questions about.

Read through your reviews and look for items that get a lot of mentions. Not all Yelp comments will contain blog gems, of course. Some might just contain complaints or random bits of praise you can’t build on. But, watching the comments closely could give you some great ideas for writing that will really resonate.

Targeted Keyword Research

And ofcourse, nothing beats good ol' fashioned keyword research. This is a fundamental part of the writing process, as it helps you find the right terms which will perform better on SERPs. But more than SEO, your searches can also help you to find out what people are looking for, and that could give you some excellent blog post ideas.

With Google AdWords‘ Keyword Planner, you can run a simple search on a topic you’re planning to cover. Your results page will give you keywords that are similar to the topic you’ve hit, but they come with just a few changes.

We'll soon publish an entire section dedicated to keyword research in the SEO process, so stay tuned!

Coming up with new content ideas is not easy. But if poke around and are receptive enough, with enough luck you will soon find great content ideas to go on your blog! Good luck :)

Search Engine Optimization:Tricks For Improving The SEO Of Your Website

Tips And Tricks For Improving The SEO Of Your Website
Most people take a lot of pride in the sites they build and the businesses they put together via the web. But this pride doesn’t come without first experiencing success. No one is proud of a failed business or website. Here are some SEO tips you can use in order to make a success of your business:
For the best results in search engine optimization, be sure to use only the highest quality of content. It doesn’t matter how many great keywords you have in an article if the article is dull, trite, or simply badly written. Search engine bots are not going to buy your product or service, people are. If your article can’t impress people your search engine rankings won’t matter.
An introduction to search engine optimization can be found all over the Internet. This is where you would go to learn how to get more traffic onto your web site. This is very common for those who have affiliate sites, blogs to generate income.
Keep your keywords in mind, but create your page for the users. Search engines crawl for keywords but they are not the ones choosing to click on your link. A page title or meta description that is full of keywords without content will keep people from clicking on your link.
Continually focus on ways to improve your search engine optimization throughout the life cycle of your site. While initial consideration during design is important, continual adjustments and tweaks to your optimization plans keep your site moving up in ranking results. Be proactive in reviewing trends or analytic data and make ongoing adjustments accordingly.
If you are looking to hire a company to do your SEO for you, make sure to research and interview them thoroughly. Determine what kind of tactics that they use for their optimization and make sure that it fits in with your brand and business strategies. Ask if they can provide references for companies that they have helped and search them. If they rank high, you may be on the right track.
If you would like to increase your search engine traffic through back links, make use of social media. Sites like Twitter, Tumblr and Facebook allow users to share your links on their own page with a simple click of a button. Many Twitter and Facebook pages have high page rankings, and being linked to from them can significantly increase the page rank of your own site.
Today most search engines are capable of indexing Flash content on a website, but be cautious in using it on your site. Flash content simply does not index as well or as completely as HTML. For optimal search engine ranking make sure your site relies primarily on plain HTML, and only use Flash for non-essential bonus content.
As you can deduce from the information above, search engine optimization is about making your website appeal to the engine and to your particular market. It’s a careful blend of quality control and targeted advertising that you can pull off by using what you’ve learned above. So, how about working for that first page placement?

How to Use Blogger and Google+ Comments System Together With Toggle

Google+ comment is a cool new and improved commenting system for blogger, which allows you to create a strong bond with your readers. This new commenting system not only provides extra coverage but also brings additional engagement to any Blogger site. This system provides them the flexibility to share and discuss much more quickly. However, before anyone could leave a comment, they have to get themselves registered on Google plus. It would work for some users, but not everyone wants to put barriers around their site and content. Who does not like freedom?  Same thing applies here too. You do not want to force your visitors to starting using platform because, you are endorsing them. Today in this article, we will show you How to create toggle Google+ and Blogger comments in blogger

We have created a toggle method that would allow you to enable the new Google+ Comments, but without losing your old Blogger commenting system. Users can continue to comment like they use to do in the past but Google Plus users can hit the “G+” toggle button and can comment, share and view the activity you post has had using that.

What are the Disadvantages of Google+ Comments?

First and foremost  to use this feature, it is must that a person should have an account on Google plus otherwise he cannot leave a reply. Now not every single person on this earth is using this platform so this probably would annoy your visitors. 

Secondly, this commenting system depends upon the URLs. Unlike Facebook Application ID, it does no stores anything in your API. You would lose your all previous comments if you change the URL of your article or think about re-branding your domain. 

It does not send notifications to your Email Address whenever someone either leaves a reply to your blog or posts a new comment. On the other hand, all comments are published instantly without any review so it may become an ideal place for Spammers.

The Solution:

Step#1: The first thing you need to do is to backup your template. After logging in, from the dashboard go to Template >> Edit HTML. Now enable the HTML Editor’s built-in search box and search for the following code.  (Quick Tip: Click anywhere on the HTML editor and Press CTRL+F to enable the search box).

 **********************************************************************************

<b:includable id='threaded_comments' var='post'>
.
.
.
.
</b:includable>

**********************************************************************************

Step#2: After finding the code mentioned above, replace it entirely and accurately with the Following code. (Remember: Make sure that the tags are properly closed otherwise you would face errors).
**********************************************************************************

<b:includable id='threaded_comments' var='post'>

After adding the above CSS codes, again in the template search for ending </head> tag and just above it paste the following jQuery code:

<script type='text/javascript'>
 /*<![CDATA[*/
$(document).ready(function() {
    textToShare = '';
    $(document).mousemove(function(m) {
        generateTooltipPosition();
    });
});
$(document).mouseup(function() {
    $(document).mousemove(function(m) {
        generateTooltipPosition()
    });
    var textToShare = getTextToShare();
    var MBLSharetip = document.getElementById("MBLSharetip");
    if (textToShare != '') showMeTooltip();
});
$(document).click(function() {
    var textToShare = getTextToShare();
    var tooltipTitle = null;
    var newTooltipTitle = $("#MBLSharetip").attr("title");
    if (newTooltipTitle == "") return;
    if (newTooltipTitle !== tooltipTitle) $('#MBLSharetip').animate({
        opacity: 0
    }, 30);
    if (textToShare != "") showMeTooltip();
});
$(window).resize(function() {
    if ($('#MBLSharetip').show()) {
        $('#MBLSharetip').animate({
            opacity: 0
        }, 30);
    }
});
function showMeTooltip() {
    var pageURL = window.location.toString();
    var twitterLink = "https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=" + getTextToShare() + "&via=" + twitterAccount + "&url=" + pageURL;
    $('#MBLSharetip').show();
    $('#MBLSharetip').animate({
        opacity: 1
    }, 30);
    $('#sendToTwitter').attr('href', twitterLink);
}
function getTextToShare() {
    shareTxt = '';
    if (window.getSelection) {
        shareTxt = window.getSelection();
        generateTooltipPosition();
    } else if (document.getSelection) {
        shareTxt = document.getSelection();
        generateTooltipPosition();
    }
    return shareTxt;
}
function generateTooltipPosition() {
    var selection = window.getSelection && window.getSelection();
    if (selection && selection.rangeCount > 0) {
        range = selection.getRangeAt(0);
        pos = $(window).scrollTop();
        selection_text = selection.toString(), rect = range.getBoundingClientRect();
        $('#MBLSharetip').css({
            top: (rect.top + pos - 20) - 32 + 'px',
            left: rect.left + (rect.width / 2) + 'px',
        });
    }
}
/*]]>*/
</script>

Now lastly, to display the widget we need to add the HTML code in the template. Search for the ending </body> tag and just above it paste the following code:

<script>var twitterAccount = "mybloggerlab";</script>
    <div class="MBLSharetip" id="MBLSharetip">
         <div class="tooltipContainer"><a id="sendToTwitter" href="" class="sharingLink twitter"><span></span></a></div>
     </div>

Once everything is done press the "Save Template" button present towards the top of your screen and you're done. Congratulations, you have successfully installed the widget on your site. Now visit your blog and select any text to see what happens next.
