Blog is best resource to increase traffic on website, how blogging can be more helpful to increase website traffic and website page rank is mentioned here.

Now instead of using free blogging platform like blogger, wordpress, typepad and other, integrate blog on your own domain in root directory for ex. /blog/ you can also use it as sub-domain ex. blog.domain-name.com

We have seen lots of bloggers which are using content from other resources and giving them link as credit of content. This is nice but if we want to take full benefit from blog, than we should write some unique information with fresh content, which should not been used on other sources before your publishing. So if you have not integrated blog on your domain than just do it first. I recommend you to install word-press on your domain to use as blog. Else you can use other blogging CMS.

After setting up blog on your domain, you need to go for posting some tips or information on your blog with fresh content. All posting contents should be fresh and well internal linking to related posts. For that you can use some plug-ins and components or PHP customization for related posts after your blog post. This is best way to show related posts on your blog, but it will be good if you point that related post with link from your content of particular postings.

Don’t forget to optimize your blog and keep promoting your blog.

Will Google Buzz Kill off Forums and Blogs?

Nice thread on buzz user forum about Google-BUZZ. Discussion topic was “will Google BUZZ kill off forums and blogs?” And some intresting answers were like this,

There are many factors which will ultimately decide the fate of both internet forums and Buzz. Right now, Buzz is not organized enough to act as a forum. You could say that Twitter should replace forums too despite the limit of 140 characters since you can reply to people. I must say though that the ability to essentially have a thread within each buzz post does position google in a better spot to take over forums. The problem is that the forums out there today that are already popular will continue to have people congregate at. Buzz will basically be the “walmart” of Forums, while the actual established forums around a specific topic will be the specialized stores. When you are looking for new Furniture most people prefer Rooms to go over walmart because of the selection and knowledge Rooms to Go has abiout the products. The same goes for forums. Nich specific forums will remain popular in my opinion, even 10 years down the road.

Forums aren’t all the same. They are created in a variety of ways, they are configured with so many features it’s simply impossible to replace all such cases with Google Buzz. All the existing communication species (forums, chats, guestbooks etc) will stay with us. Some of them will become less common, or even rare, but it is unlikely they all will be exterminated.

When we are working with PPC, Keyword Selection is head ache for all PPC users. I am running more than 3 PPC Campaigns and also facing same problem for keywords selection and also some unaccepted requirements from clients makes me MAD. Like Ad Display problem on same keyword having high Bid or Ad Displaying on non selected keywords and wasting of money with clicks and also unwanted traffic on Web Site.

Here mentioned some of important and useful points foe batter performance in Google Adwords PPC (Pay Per Click) Services.

Broad match: This is the default option. When you include keyword phrases such as tennis shoes in your keyword list, your ads will appear when users search for tennis and shoes, in any order and possibly along with other terms like: new tennis shoes, men shoes for tennis, and so on…

Broad matches are often less targeted than exact or phrase matches.

Phrase match: Your ad appears when users search on the exact phrase also when their search contains additional terms, as long as the keyword phrase is in.

Same order: A phrase match for “tennis shoes” would display your ad if a user searches on: red tennis shoes, newtennis shoes, but not for: shoes for tennis

Exact match: The search query must match your keyword. This means [tennis shoes] will only match a user request for: tennis shoes and not for: red tennis shoes, even though the second query contains your keyword.

Want to use Wordpress as an E-commerce site?

Wordpress as a CMS is simply wonderful and it can also be converted as an e-commerce portal and can help you in showcasing to selling of the products without much efforts. Well, it’s really isn’t that easy as simple blogging because you are taking it the next level, however it’s relatively far simpler than other available tools on the internet.

1. WP e-Commerce is an excellent plugin which converts your blog into a complete shopping cart. At the moment the main plugin page isn’t working. We hope to see that page up soon as now there are various paid options available too.
2. YAK for WordPress is another free and simple shopping cart plugin which allows you to run wordpress as a shopping cart. There is a whole long procedure of setting up the plugin and how to configure it, to ensure that you can display the products and receive payments through cheque, deposit, credit card form or through paypal.
3. eShop : This is WordPress 2.5 and above compatible shopping cart, which is actively developed at the moment and has got some of the most wonderful options. It’s one of my first suggestions to any one, who wants to use WordPress as a shopping cart too.

Well, the above mentioned plugins are good enough when it comes to setting up the shopping cart, however there are several things for which you may not need a e-commerce solution. Here are some of them which have nothing to do as far as e-Commerce sites are concerned but are worth a mention -

1. WP BankRoll : This is a free/premium plugin, which allows you to earn money by allowing you to sell reviews on your blog. This plugin integrates with PayPal and if installed you get the ability to sell the reviews and also even lets you configure things in a way that an advertiser can write the post himself. Ah! that’s a neat thing, isn’t it ?
2. EasyPayPal : If you want to charge for your content, then you can do that with the help of this plugin. It also lets you help in creating various other type of payment pages which completely depends on your need. Without mentioning this plugin, this post would have been incomplete.
3. Zencart & WordPress integration : This plugin is not a shopping cart however, it integrates wonderful and open source shopping cart software i.e. ZenCart with WordPress.

I hope that you find all these plugin not only useful but money making too! If you happen to be a plugin developer or if you know about some other e-Commerce tools for WordPress then do let us know and we’ll update the list.
