Website promotion. Technorati.
Some days ago I devoted my evening to looking through articles and blog entries about SEO and the ways of website promotion. These topics seem to be the most discussed after Paris Hilton’s adventures. Not that I decided to make my hobby blog to something commercial. I just have no experience in this sphere and so wanted to get a common impression about these technics. Being the owner of a blog, the tips and tricks for bloggers were of a special interest for me. As I understood the key to the success and to the popularity of the blog was in the first place to be active. Active in all the ways. To write regularly, to read other blogs and to leave there your comments. There was also an advise to register your blog in all the possible search engines. I don’t have a list of such engines, but what I noticed is that after I launched i-gorod practically three days later I was visited by Technorati and added to its index. After a while I decided to make an account at Technorati and to claim there my blog. What I mostly liked is the registration procedure. After you choose your nickname and password you can add your blog. To verify whether you are really the blog owner Technorati determines itself the engine, that your blog is powered by and asks you to create a temporary posting and put in a link with some id. After you’ve done it in the seperate browser window, you come back and submit the request. Two or three seconds Technorati spider runs through your blog (maybe only rss feed?) and finds the link. After that the registration is complete and you can take out the temp posting.
You are right, the most important rule is to be active.
Another way to promote blog is to translate your posts into your blog in livejournal.com, for example. You can find there a lot of IT-communites and became a friend of their member. This is the way to get several hundreds readers.

I harmonise with your conclusions and will eagerly look forward to your next updates. Just saying thanks will not just be enough, for the extraordinary clarity in your writing.

author: 1-Oz Silver Round | July 3rd, 2010 at 9:38 pmHey I just want to let you know, I actually like the writing on your website. But I am employing Flock on a machine running version 9.04 of Ubuntu and the design aren’t quite satisfactory. Not a strong deal, I can still essentially read the articles and search for info, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of hard to use with the config I’m running. Keep up the superb work!

I did want to write a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically sweet. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief. I have always enjoyed working with information processing systems and am attempting to learn code in my free time.
