Did you know that 90% of achieving solid search engine rankings is dependent upon building quality one-way back links to your site?.  Building links is one thing, but to see any true effect, you have to build massive amounts of them. This process can be tedious and costly, and requires you to buy links in most cases to get high quality one-way back links. What about the sites requiring that you put a reciprocal link back on your site. If you agreed to do that every time someone requested it, before long, you will have a cluttered, dysfunctional website bombarded with so many links, you could not navigate your way around.

Another problem arises.  To find high quality back links to your site, sometimes require that you to go through hundreds of article directories, guest books, forums that are of high quality and other directories that have good page rank and some sort of relevance to your site, that will even allow you to put a link on their site.  Beginning to see the picture?  Here is a suggestion.

To help you with all those tedious tasks and improve your search engine optimization, use a link building service.  One that will literally eliminate the need for you to do your own link building search.  They work like this. They will take snippets of your unique content that are relevant to your site, and automatically disperse them across their huge network of blogs over time.  With time you will begin to see your traffic increase, building sales and your brand name.

I personally use a professional link building service that I am very happy with. They are highly networked and can have your site building one way links in no time.  The rewards are outstanding.  Go directly to their website here.

Blogs require good design and layout, constant maintenance, interesting content and topics to keep your visitors coming back for more, and some interaction by way of inviting comments and feedback…and that is just for starters.  There are a host of other things you can do to set your new blog on the path to success, but that’s for another article.

Before you get into all the ‘pretty’ decisions about your blog, like color, font size and what WP theme you’re going to use, I want to address a more pressing need that should take priority over most other things. That is the need for you to sit down and start researching a good web domain name for your blog.  Sounds easy doesn’t it?.  Let the truth be told.  It could take you days to finally find a good web domain name,  one that even closely represent what your site is about. That’s because all the ‘good ones’ are gone..or so you might think.  Let me explain how you can go about this task without pounding your head on the computer desk from frustration.

There are a lot of theories floating around out there about how long or short a domain name should be.  Some experts say that your domain name should be the name of  your site, short so people can remember and spend less time typing it into their browser, minimizing the possibility of making mistakes.  I agree with all of this, but for me it’s not set in stone.  You can have longer domain names that people can still remember, without jeopardizing your search results in the major search engines.. You just have to be a little creative.  If you absolutely cannot come up with an appropriate domain name, here are a few suggestions.

Buy an existing domain name.  There are sites where you can actually buy a domain name on the aftermarket.  Try some of these:

• wwww.sedo.com
• www.snapnames.com
• www.afternic.com
• www.tdnam.com

Get a domain that has been dropped or no longer in use.  There are expired domain list you can refer to. Some website owners never renew their domain registration and they become available for you to snatch right up.  You just need to sign up for a free account with them.  Here they are:

• www.pool.com
• www.clubdrop.com
• www.snapnames.com

One great tool I’ve personally used and I highly recommend is the Domain Name Analyzer.  It is a free tool that comes ready made with various combination of words,  enabling you to create your own domain names.  Once you’re satisfied with what you’ve created, the program will actually run a mass search of whois of the entire domain name and return results in no time.  Very cool tool. You can download it here for free.  This will help you create your web domain names that are not necessarily “short” but appropriate.
