Set SEO For Blogger Blog? What do you think about that?
There is no seo plugin for blogger blogs, but we have the best seo plugin for WordPress which is Yoast.
Bloggers keep panicking every day when they aren’t getting traffic, and they keep seeing others blog getting traffics and their rank increasing day-by-day.
Some even stop blogging because of low traffic, some bloggers keep checking their Alexa rank to check if they are really improving or not.
Checking Alexa rankings is a bad habit, I also do that sometimes ago, then I feel depressed after checking it.
I use to check my competitors own with mine and ask my self
Malik, Your Rankings Is Coming Down
These Days.
Why?
Like seriously, when I saw that the rankings, I felt depressed then, but I took a man heart and I keep working.
Some people can’t do that because after seeing it, they will feel like quitting blogging, that is why I said checking blog’s Alexa rankings is a bad habit.
New bloggers start blogging with blogger platform because it is free, I also start with that, but after some months, when my eyes opened I moved to WordPress.
Bloggers seo is also good because that blogger platform is created by Google itself, so the seo should be good if you set it very well.
Let me quickly give you guys a point, back then after moving to WordPress, I applied for Google Adsense and got approved after 3hours.
I was amazed, I applied for it on blogger and it was approved after 3days.
That was the first thing, I saw as a message that WordPress is a very good platform.
Am I a talk-active? People say that but I don’t believe, just trying to express my self in my language( Laughing out loudly).
Do you know?
Blogger Blog SEO Can Defeat
WordPress Own.
That is the fact, but some people still don’t believe that.
Guys, Don’t get me wrong, WordPress SEO Is better Than Blogger’s own, so WordPress seo is still the best.
But When it comes to ranking, google doesn't care or know if your blog is WordPress or blogger.
That is the reason why I said blogger blog seo can defeat WordPress own.

The Keywords is the most crucial things inside the meta tags.

https://plus.google.com/xxxxx/posts' rel='publisher'/>
<link href='
