Post optimization Tips to get higher SERP

Let’s talk about On-Page Optimization, especially on posts content. Like everybody said that content is the king, and SEO is the queen. That is the critical area in our site. Blog post optimization gives your posts the best chance for showing up in Google for a predetermined keyword phrase.
I am using a EO plugin, and it give me inspiration to share what are they talking about. There is a technique to optimize blog post for better SERP in search engine result. Not just make a new post, publish and you will get good SERP. At least there are 10 things in their suggestion. What are they? Here is the complete list.
1.    Use Enough Keyword Density.
Keyword density is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears on a web page compared to the total number of words on the page. Try to use it between 2 – 6%.
2.    Add Keyword Phrase in Post Title.
Always include the primary keyword phrase in the page title. Keep the title less than 70 characters in length.
3.    Add an H1 Tag Containing Keyword Phrase..
Most blog CMS’s automatically assign an H1 tag to the blog post’s title. But if you not sure that your theme have it, add H1 tag with the primary keyword phrase in it on the post content.
4.    Highlight Your Primary Keyword with boldface or strong near the top of your content
5.    Add an image with keyword phrase in alt text.
Always make sure to have at least one image on every blog post. Also, include the primary keyword phrase in the image file name and the image alt text.
6.    Add Keyword phrase to first sentence.
From the start of the sentence, you should use keywords that leads your post contents.
7.    Add Keyword phrase to last sentence.
In your post, most of the keywords should be used so that your post may get indexed. It is strongly recommended that the usage of the keywords must be reasonable otherwise you may be penalized by search engines.
8.    Inbound or Internal Links.
It is recommended to link the primary keyword phrase to a page on your website domain with the intent of helping that page rank for that word.
9.    Use more words.
Try to use enough words in your post content so that most of them get indexed in different search engines like Google. It is commonly seen that longer posts are indexed for different keywords.
10.    Use nofollow link for external links.
As you know that this is a DoFollow blog and it receives almost 98% spam comments. So, don’t use “DoFollow” link for external link, except the link have good and important or have correlation with your post. I suggest you to use “Nofollow” link to all of external link in your blog post.

Broken Link Checker Plugin for WordPress

Your visitor came from search engine and Got a 404 error. This is the bad thing for website owner that his users are being disappointed. Everyone knows that with the passage of time, websites grows and pages are added continuously.

So, this is very common to get some broken links because sometimes we accidently delete some pages or some of our pages are expired due to many reasons. Then we should have to do something with these broken links so that the users may not get worried.

For wordpress users there are many broken Link Checkers are available but most of them have too many disadvantages. Today, while I was searching, I come across a very powerful and hand plugin named Broken Link Checker.

Broken Link Checker plugin

This nifty plugin runs in the background anytime you’ve got your admin console open, and produces a report in the dashboard if it finds any dud links or missing images. Each row in the table also has a number of options that allow you to fix the problem without leaving the admin console, so it’s quick and easy to fix them.

Configuration

As you can see, configuration is straightforward:

Status – this alerts you to any problems found, with a link to the management page. You can also manually restart the scanning process, although this should rarely be necessary.
Check every post – here you can configure how frequently your site will be checked.
Broken link CSS – until they are fixed, by default any broken links will be displayed as a visual cue to your visitors.
Exclusion list – I haven’t found a need to use this as yet.
Work session length – pretty self-explanatory!
“Delete Post” option – the plugin author doesn’t recommend you use this, and neither do I!

If you change any of these values, don’t forget to click the Update Options button.

Fixing broken links

The management screen displays a table, with each row representing a broken link or missing image. It looks like this:

Here’s a brief explanation of each of the columns:

Post – displays the title of the post or page which has the broken link
Link text – displays the link text
URL – displays the faulty URL, along with an Edit option for you to correct it
View – this allows you to view the post or page, as seen by your visitors
Edit Post – this takes you to the post editor so you can make changes in context
Discard – this removes the row from the table, although it will reappear with the next scan if the link hasn’t been fixed.
Unlink – this gives you the option to remove the link from the post, whilst retaining the link text.

When should I update my blog?

We know that the new bloggers are very much excited to do SEO for their blogs and most of them usually asks this question that "How often should I update my blog?"

The truth is that some multi-author news blogs update several times per day, while other blogs are lucky to be updated once per month. This happens because a blogger have not too much time to write articles regularly or he can't post 2 or 3 articles per day.

So finally, when should we update our blogs so that we can meet the current needs of Search Engines just like Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc…
This depends on your blog's nature that what sort of blog you are developing.

If it is just a personal blog that is just for fun, then it really doesn't matter how often you post. You are posting mostly for your own benefit. However, if you want regular readers for your blog, then your post frequency is going to be very important.
If you want visitors to come to your blog every day, then you are going to want to post something on your blog at least once per day.
If you want visitors to check back every once in a while, then posting once or twice per week is probably enough.

But whatever you decide, consistency is the key. Don't update your blog 5 times in one day and then do nothing to it for two weeks. Readers hate that kind of thing. Readers like predictability, so be predictable.

Search engines like Google and Yahoo love continually updated blogs. So if you are looking for a good search engine ranking, you will want to pace yourself so that you can be sure to update your blog on a continual basis.

The key is to find a schedule that works for you and stick with it. If you can only post twice per week, then do that consistently and stick with it.

One thing that can free up time to update your blog more often is to automate other tasks. For example, some bloggers spend more time promoting their blogs on social bookmarking sites than they do blogging.
But remember, the number one key to blogging is hard work. If you work hard, and you stick with it and you regularly post quality content then you will be well on your way to blogging success.
