You’d probably be surprised for how much free traffic it will bring you if you become an active member in the blogosphere. Besides it can make your blog more mainstream. There are tons of blog pages created and many more created on a daily basis. You need to make sure that if you plan on blogging that you make yourself stand out from the crowd. There are tons of social networking sites for bloggers that can assist in creating a name for yourself and your blog. The more time you spend on working on networking the better results you’ll see.

Don’t expect to get thousands of visitors overnight from a couple conversations, but over time if you consistently use the social networking sites for bloggers, then you can gain a following of people, especially if your blog is half-decent. Twitter is probably the most popular network for bloggers right now and it allows bloggers to follow the daily Internet lives of other bloggers. Anyone can use the site though and you don’t need to be a blogger which means that many blog readers also use the site to follow the popular bloggers. If you make yourself noticeable on Twitter, then chances are more and more people will begin to follow you. That simply means they can see your post whenever you write something new to Twitter.

When you post a new blogging page, you can notify everyone on your Twitter about it within seconds which will help you gain a readership. If your knowledge is useful and not just regurgitated nonsense, then you will stand a much better shot at retaining the readers who come from the social networking sites.

Another way to become active in the blogosphere to benefit your blog is by commenting regularly on different blogs. I always make sure I comment on certain blogs, as time goes you’ll gain a friendship with the other blogger. Doing so will help benefit your blog. This can lead into link exchanges, blog post exchanges, and even traffic exchanges through numerous methods. The possibilities are endless. The fact is most bloggers like networking with other bloggers to help each other out. All you need to do is make yourself noticeable by commenting on blogs. Obviously you might not be noticed on a blog with hundreds of comments a day; but if you comment on semi popular blogs, you can become noticed quickly.

You can also link to other blog pages in your blog posts. Other blog owners will then notice that they’ve been linked to from your blog. This could end up getting you a trackback link in return. Depending on which blog links back to you, it could bring in huge amounts of traffic. The traffic coming from these blogs is indeed very targeted.

If your friends are also bloggers, you can exchange link with them and always be networking with other bloggers. Also if you’re asked for help from a fellow blogger, you should help them out because you’ll never know what it could lead too. You may end up getting a link from them or even a review from them. It could lead to more traffic. If it is a service you offer on your blog, then you may even get more business from it. Sometimes doing free leads of higher paying jobs will pay you back in a long run so you should always consider doing freebies for some people. If it gets you advertising out of the deal, then it is not working for free anyways. So you need to think of it like this.

There is nothing more important than becoming friends with other bloggers in your niche. Although there is sort of your competition, you can probably still be benefited from helping them out. Blog commenting also builds your backlinks so this is the most important thing to do. Even if it leads nowhere you’ll at least be getting some backlinks. The do-follow backlinks help your search engine placements as well although most bloggers don’t use do-follow. If you find a do-follow blog, then you should bookmark it and comment there at least once a day. Then you’re guaranteed to be increasing your backlinks everyday which is something that Google and the other search engines love to see.

• download a plugin here.
• Once you downloaded the file; unzipped it.
• I use FireFTP to upload the unzipped file to this folder /wp-content/plugins/. But you can use whatever FTP you want.

One more thing you need to do before you can use this plugin. That is you need to edit adsense.php otherwise you can’t earn money because those codes are not yours.

Open adsense.php file, search down to the middle, and find the lines of <!– Begin Google Adsense code –> and <!– End Google Adsense code –>. You need to put your Google Ads between these two lines. Make sure you use the following codes to wrap around them. What I mean is your codes should look like the one below:

You can change to float right, left or center; adjust 5px to meet your needs. By the way margin: 5px 5px 5px 5px represents for top, right, bottom, and left margin spacing respectively. After you made your changes, make sure you save it and upload it back to this folder: /wp-content/plugins/adsense/.

Now login to your WordPress Dashboard, click on Plugins on the Menu Bar, and make sure you activate Adsense. You should see a new button, Adsense, on your editor’s Code Button. Now go ahead and try to click on Adsense button and place the ads wherever you want it to be. See mine on this post. Hope you enjoy it like I do!

By the way both WordPres.com and Google Blogger are Free service that offers a free blog site. If you are thinking to have one, these two are good choices for you to start. Check out Comparison of Google Blogger and WordPress.com Blog to make a wise decision before you choose one.

Update 7/15/2008: I learned how to change the title now which I talked about it here in this post: Learning How to Blog With WordPress – Part 2. If you are using a full version of WordPress blog (WordPress.org blog), by default your blog’s permalink (permanent link) looks like this http://sitename.com/?p=123 which is ugly and Google will penalize for this kind of urls (web addresses). Therefore it is very important that you optimize your permalinks first before you want to continue to do anything else with your WordPress blog. You don’t need to learn the hard way like me:

• Login to your WordPress Dashboard; click on Options/Permalinks (for WordPress 2.3.x) or Settings/Permalinks (for WordPress 2.5.x). See the screenshot below; it is taken from WordPress 2.5.1:

Click the above picture to enlarge

• Look for Common Settings under Customize Permalink Structure section. There are a couple of choices offered by WordPress. See the screenshot below:

Click the above picture to enlarge

• In the Custom Structure, type or copy and paste /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ in the text field. Your permalink will turn out to be: http://www.sitename.com/2008/7/15/postname/. According to Using Permalinks<<WordPress Codex, set up your permalink like this is always a good start.

• Alternatively in the Custom Structure, type or copy and paste /%category%/%postname%/ in the text field. Your permalink will turn out to be: http://www.sitename.com/category/postname/.

• Make sure you scroll all the way down and click on Save Changes to save it.

Hope the above information helps you if you are a newbie at WordPress like me.
