How To Add Meta Description Tags to Blogger

1 comments
Blogger just introduces Meta Tags are HTML elements used to provide structured metadata about a web page. This will give your blog better search engine visibility. Such tags are placed in the head section of an HTML document and Search Engines might use this data to display the search snippet when they display a page from your blog. Most of the Social Sharing Tools like the Facebook Share or the Google Plus buttons will pick up this meta description to create the snippet which gets shared to the Social Networks.

How to add Meta Description Tags


Blogger has rolled out an array of SEO features and now adding Meta Tags has become so easy. You can do it easily from the Blogger’s User Interface without doing much of Template Editing or pulling your hair. So here is how to do it


  • Go to Settings Search Settings and Enable Meta Tags. In the Text area give a 150 character description which will describe your Blog. This text might be used by Search engines when your Blog’s home page is displayed on Search Engines. Here is the snippet that I have given “Blogger Widgets provides you the best quality blogger tutorials.It also provides you with free blogger widgets and  gadgets to build a better blog.”


How To Add Meta Description Tags to Blogger
  • Now when you make a Post, you can set the Meta Description from the Post Editor’sPost Settings  Sidebar. 
How To Add Meta Description Tags to Blogger




























You can always edit the Search Description for existing posts as well 

  • Now you have to add some code to your Blogger Template. To do that Go toTemplate and Proceed to Edit HTML . Find <head> and immediately below it paste the following snippet. 
<b:if cond='data:blog.metaDescription'>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.metaDescription' name='description'/>
</b:if>
  • That's It you have done it. Blogger rocks. :)

Affiliate Marketing 101: Understanding the Basics

Affiliate Marketing 101: Understanding the Basics
Imagine a marketing program that can increases sales 10% to 25%--and you don’t pay a dime unless you get results. Sound too good to be true?"



That’s pretty much how affiliate marketing works. Through these online programs, you sign on with a partner that markets your product or service, often through a link or banner ad you place on their website. The affiliate then gets a commission based on sales, visits, or customers that result from those efforts. It’s the ultimate in pay for performance. “An affiliate partner will do a lot of the marketing for you. And you only owe money if they provide the outcome you want,” says Marty Fahncke, president of FawnKey & Associates, a consulting firm with expertise in affiliate marketing.



At the same time, successful affiliate marketing requires understanding some basics. Here’s what you should know:

Evaluate your affiliate marketing channels


Your affiliate can be anything from a website or enewsletter to a shopping portal, to name a few. Fahncke points to one client, a small business selling sunglasses, as a case in point. Perhaps their most successful affiliate is a website devoted to bicycling, which recently included an article about the product and a link to their site. The company pays the affiliate a 20% commission on sales. At the same time, however, the firm uses a variety of other affiliates. The bottom line: “You want a good mix of different types of channels,” says Fahncke.



How many? There’s no magic number. You can make money with perhaps twenty, or in some cases, thousands. It all depends on the quality of the partner. For example, three or four effective affiliates that specialize in search engine optimization can provide you with as much business as hundreds of mediocre websites, especially if they’re not quite the right fit for your product and demographic.

Scrutinize the affiliate marketing commission


Commissions run the gamut, from 3% to as much as 90%, although the average is around 15% to 20%, according to Fahncke. The amount depends on a variety of factors. High volume products, for example, tend to command lower rates. At the same time, you get what you pay for. Take Steven Rothberg, president of CollegeRecruiter.com, a career site for college students and recent graduates. He pays about 50% more than many other companies in order to attract the best affiliates possible. About 10% of his revenues come from his affiliate marketing program.

Focus on recruitment and retention


Recruiting high-quality affiliates is one of the toughest parts. While there are lots of choices out there, finding the right partners, getting their attention and negotiating the final details take time - as long as a year in many cases. How to find them? One possibility is to sign on with an affiliate marketing network like Commission Junction. Almost all of CollegeRecruiter.com’s affiliates, for example, have resulted from its relationship with the network, through a program in which interested affiliates that are a good fit automatically become partners. Another tack: Shawn Collins, co-author of Successful Affiliate Marketing for Merchants (Que, 2001) uses software to determine which affiliates his clients’ competition is using. Then he targets them with phone calls and direct mail.



That’s only the first step. Just because you’ve signed a deal with an affiliate doesn’t mean it will let you go live. To make sure you are “activated”, as Collins puts it, you also need to work constantly at staying top of mind. For example, he will send the top twenty affiliates for each client gifts, and call them at least once a month.

Decide if you’d prefer two tier affiliations


Somewhat like the classic Mary Kay-style Multi-Level Marketing arrangements, these affiliates use a referral network to generate more sales for the company and commissions for themselves. An affiliate that is working with a particular company’s program will attract other partners to join up. It, then, receives commissions from any activity those newer affiliates generate. The system ensures more income for partners throughout the chain and greater visibility for the small business. Plus, “It saves time if you can’t do your own recruiting,” says Collins.

Find the right affiliate solution provider


You need a method for tracking traffic, sales and payments. There are two ways to go about it. One is to install software in-house and do it yourself. That can be a big job, however, especially if you’re short-handed. The other is to hire a third party to provide the technology and customer support needed to facilitate the transaction. You’ll pay a percentage of your affiliate’s commission to the firm.

Watch out for fraud and spam


There are a variety of scams out there, so be careful. One common type works this way: An affiliate earns a commission on an order that they actually place themselves, after which they return the product. Says Fahncke: “The merchant ends up paying a commission on a product they didn’t really sell.” As for spam, you can be held legally responsible for the actions of your affiliates that send out junk mail on your behalf, thanks to the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003.

Add Floating Share Buttons To Your Blog’s Sidebar (For Blogspot)

1 comments

Apart from working on traffic and search engine optimization (SEO), there’s a need to intergrate your blog with popular social networking platforms. A floating share buttons (social bookmarking) widget by the right of every page is just one of the gadgets you must add to your blog if you intend to get free traffic from facebook and twitter. I wrote a post last week that went viral thanks to the power of facebook sharing. The post received close to 500 facebook likes in just a week! Underestimating the power of share buttons is like neglecting a major source of traffic to your blog. I’ve already written several posts on integrating your blogger hosted site with facebook, google plus and the rest of them. These posts include adding like buttons to individual blog posts, adding google plus buttons to blog posts, facebook comment box for blogger and large share buttons under blog posts among others.

Having a floating share buttons widget makes it even easier for your blog visitors to share your blog posts they find interesting. Unlike the previous ones, it’s easy to get this done as you won’t need to do any sort of HTML editing on your template. The floating sidebar sharing widget comes with the most popular social sites. You can see the widget just at the right side of this page and it scrolls with the page, leaving your visitor no choice but to share your content.
Add Floating Share Buttons To Your Blog’s Sidebar (For Blogspot)

How To Add Floating Share Buttons On The Sidebar

1. Log in to your blogger account and click on Design

2. You’re now looking at your blog’s layout, right? Click on Add A Gadget on the sidebar.

3. Select HTML / Java Script

4. Paste the code below into the box and save. There’s no need for a title.
 
<!--SideBar Floating Share Buttons Code Start-->

<style>

#pageshare {position:fixed; bottom:15%; right:10px; float:left; border: 1px solid black; border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;background-color:#eff3fa;padding:0 0 2px

0;z-index:10;}

#pageshare .sbutton {float:left;clear:both;margin:5px 5px 0 5px;}

.fb_share_count_top {width:48px !important;}

.fb_share_count_top, .fb_share_count_inner {-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;}

.FBConnectButton_Small, .FBConnectButton_RTL_Small {width:49px !important; -moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;}

.FBConnectButton_Small .FBConnectButton_Text {padding:2px 2px 3px !important;-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;font-size:8px;}

</style>
<div id='pageshare' title="Share This With Your Friends">
<div class='sbutton' id='gb'><script src="http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1"></script><fb:like layout="box_count" show_faces="false" font=""></fb:like></div>
<div class='sbutton' id='rt'><a href="http://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-count="vertical" >Tweet</a><script src='http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js' type="text/javascript"></script></div>
<div class='sbutton' id='gplusone'><script type="text/javascript" src="https://apis.google.com/js/plusone.js"></script><g:plusone size="tall"></g:plusone></div>

<!--SideBar Floating Share Buttons Code End—>


5. Save the widget and preview your blog.

If you already have a google plus button above or below your posts, the one in the widget might not appear. It seems you can’t have two +1 buttons on a page.

If you’re using a dark template, you can try out the code below if you don’t quite like the first one:

#pageshare {position:fixed; bottom:15%; right:10px; float:left; border: 1px solid black; border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;background-color:#000000;padding:0 0 2px

Google Page Rank – A Beginners Guide
  1. Toolbar Pagerank and Pagerank are two different, unsynchronised measurements based on the number and quality of links that pass pagerank to a particular page.
  2. Google Toolbar Pagerank Not Visible? Just because a page has a Toolbar grey bar does not mean a page has no real pagerank – it can mean that of course, but it can mean other things. I’ve theorised Toolbar Grey Pages do not pass pagerank to external sites, and may be an indication Google has an issue with the page.
  3. A white Google Toolbar generally signifies that the page has a measure of Real Pagerank, and that Pagerank score will be reflected in the next Pagerank update (which happens whenever Google decides will happen) – one of the most common questions about Pagerank is “When Is The Next Google Pagerank Update?
  4. The fast way to lose PR is to openly sell links on your website. This is now officially against Google Webmaster Guidelines for inclusion.
  5. The most common reason for a drop in Toolbar Pagerank is simply your website is recieving less Pagerank via the links it has pointing to it from other sites. This could be because the pages those links on them have less PR to give, the links themselves have dissappeared and no linger point to your site, or Google has in fact changed the way Pagerank works.
  6. At the moment, a tangible effect when Google penalizes a site, is a reduction of visible Toolbar PR. Many sites who openly manipulated Google SERPS via paid review blogging and link-selling had their Google PR dramatically reduced in the last quarter of 2007 in Google’s opening salvo in the “war on paid links’, or so Google would have us believe.
  7. Toolbar PR has little or no effect on amount of visitors Google will send you – believe me. Perhaps this is why bloggers who had PR devalued reported no loss of visitors from Google. A reduction in real PR however could see less pages on your site being indexed.
  8. Many believe Google can’t find all paid links, and are using the Google Toolbar to spread FUD,
  9. If you install the Google Toolbar you will see a green indicator in your Internet Explorer / Firefox toolbar showing you the Google Page Rank of the page. Hovering over the green bar will give you a number which is the page’s Google Page Rank.
  10. It’s accepted that Toolbar Pagerank is more than a few months out of date as little as 2 weeks out of date by my observations. That is, Toolbar PR and Real PR.
  11. Google Toolbar / DC PR is not an accurate representation of your current Real Page Rank and now that Google openly manipulates what you see, the integrity of the toolbar PR is very questionable indeed in some comminites like the seo community for instance – although in 2009, for most sites, it seems pretty accurate and sensible to me.
  12. Think of Google Toolbar PR as ‘an indication of the PR of what your site might have been a couple of weeks ago.
  13. To get a higher Page Rank for your domain, you need to get a lot of other pages with PR to link to you. I used an analogy to visualize Google PR, and used this same Google Heat analogy to get a PR 7 site until PR was apparently reduced within the SEO community, and this site fell to PR 5.
  14. Page Rank flows, and so can be manipulated, channeled, blocked (with NoFollow) and screwed up. My Google Heat article explains how you can channel PR around a site. Just substitute “Heat” for “PR”.
  15. Remember sites don’t have Google Pagerank, pages do. That’s why it’s possible for an internal page to have a higher PR than the home page.
  16. The way a page gets Google Page Rank is from links to it and that’s the only way of Increasing Google Pagerank. IBLs (incoming backlinks) from high Google Page Rank pages can give you more Google Page Rank ‘Juice’ than links from low Google Page Rank pages. There is one other factor at play. The Google Pagerank they “give” is spread over the number of outgoing links on the pages. You may get more Google Page Rank benefit from a Google Page Rank 3 page with only two outbound links than a Google Page Rank 5 page with hundreds of outbound links.
  17. Google looks to be rolling out PR changes month to month recently. One thing you can be sure off: When Google revises Google Page Rank the fastest way to discover it is at Digital Point.
  18. I’ve seen sites go from anywhere from PR 0 to PR 7 in one update although in 2009 it’s MUCH HARDER to manipulate Pagerank the way I used to circa 2007 when Toolbar PR was a joke.
  19. One still useful aspect of PR is that when an update happens you can use Toolbar PR to monitor how effectively you have spread potential Google Juice or Google Heat through a site architecture.
  20. I could go into Google PR being a recursive algorythim, with decay factored in, and probably pretty far removed from the original Google Pagerank paper created by Larry Page who it’s actually named after, but this is a beginners guide and I don’t know enough about the maths anyway. You don’t need to either. Just get links from other sites!
  21. I think a page accrues REAL PAGERANK within hours….
