Somewhere along the earlier stages of my blogging life, I decided that blog gurus are not telling me the truth about building traffic to my blog. They are adamant that if you write good quality articles, every thing esle will fall into place. People will start spreading the word around that you have a good blog. Contents is King, they say. you do not need SEO. SEO is not important.

I am happy I digressed early and I have been telling people who comes here the contrary. Search Engine Optimization IS important if you want to build up your traffic from scratch. It is THE only free way to get traffic if you are not prepared to pay for it. with good SEO you can even write crap and still get the traffic flowing in day in, day out. Not that I advise this though. at least write something presentable.

Many a times, I try to stop short of calling all those successful bloggers hypocrties for telling their audience they do not need Google or Yahoo. sometimes I fail, for they are indeed hypocrites. They are SEO experts, when the blogger’s mask is taken off.

They know the importance of Search Engines and the potential of good traffic that these search brings. They know every trick in the books about building backlinks and about SERP rankings. They own the best SEO tools to do their research and ‘analyzations’ of sites that they are competing with. They will try their best ot out rank them with SEO, not with their superior quality contents. the fact is superior contents CAN NOT compete with SEO and they know it.

For the past 2 weeks I have seen 2 very prominent bloggers go back on what they have been preaching all along. one just started a membership site for people who are interested to have their post checked for good SEO practices. Members are required to pay something like more than 47 bucks monthly, if I am not mistaken, to have their script do an run down of what you have done wrong with your post and what could be done to improve the SEO of that post.

Another did a post today on how To Optimize a Single Post on Your Blog For SEO, which is a shrewd cover up post for selling a SEO software called Market Samurai. I have no problems with that as I too have heard of good feedback for this software. the only thing holding me back from getting it is because I have already spent a few hundred bucks buying SEO Elite and Keyword Elite some years back. I still use them, but that arsehole stopped upgrading it!

Anyway, like I said, this a clever cover up post for an affiliate product and if you read the comments, you will see he is going to make quite some sales from that post. AND, I am guessing this post is just a small warm up for more SEO products to come.

Call me anything, but I am not linking to these 2 famous bloggers. everybody reads them anyway, so whoever is reading this will know who I am referring to. the issue is, why are they propagating SEO now when all this while, they have been telling all to pay more attention to the quality of their contents? I’ll let my favorite four piece answer that.

  1. Optimize Your Blog Post For Search Engines the most frequently touted advise by blog gurus is something like ‘write good quality contents and traffic will come” or something to that nature. I have always rubbished this advise for my personal believe is, no matter how good the quality of your blog post is, it does no good…
  2. A High Bounce Rate could mean High Clickthrough Rate a blog’s bounce rate, if you are new and wondering, is the speed rate your visitors leaves your blog. the faster they leave, the higher will be your bounce rate. It is as if your blog is like a trampoline and who ever drops on it will be bounced…
  3. What are Membership Sites as the name suggest, a membership site is a site which you have to pay to get in. inside, you can expect so-called ’secret information’ on whatever that site is offering. It can ‘never revealed blogging secrets’, ‘magic formulas to make money online secrets’ or whatever that people are dying…
  4. Why Use a SEO WordPress Theme WordPress by itself is already a very well search optimized blogging platform. Coupled with the endless plugins that improves it further, WordPress can be said to be the best blogging platform that one could find. why then should anyone bother about whether the Theme they are using is Search…
  5. Truth behind some Blogging Tips there are thousands of Blog gurus around. everyone who has been blogging for a couple of months and have read tips from gurus before them will turn into another guru wannabe. That’s the reason why you can read a thousand blog gurus and you will still find the same…
