Links and Trackbacks in Blog Posts

As you can observe from many blogs, they always include links within the content post. Well this either to cite an original source of information, or to provide a breadcrumb trail and a tap on the shoulder to bloggers whose posts you are linking to in the form of a trackback. This trackback will generate a link that serves as an additional source of traffic to your blog.

Blog Posts Images

For me, these images provide more colorful and visual relief from text heavy web pages on a blog. Aside from that, these images can drive traffic to your blog too. As well all know that there are many people who do keyword search through search engines in order to find images and pictures online.

Blog Post Publication Date

If your blogs are updated frequently and are with timely content, your blogs will be successful. Well, readers would like to read timely blogs rather than those blogs with long gaps of time between posts, which means they are less valuable than blogs that have more current posts. As a reader, you also check the publication dates of the blog post.

The Blog Post Title

The title of your post is basically a headline. You should have a good title to entice your readers to read more. Furthermore, blog titles are important to your search engine optimization. This means that your titles help drive traffic to your blog. Always be careful in using your keywords so that search engines will not consider your blog as spam.
