11# How to write post headlines

The headline of your post is important for two reasons

1) Good headline draws readers attention at the moment they are deciding whether to read it
2) Again, Google picks the headline keywords for indexing. So it's important to have keywords that reflect the content of the post and also get ranked high in the search queries.

Here is a good post telling how to write headlines:

They say it makes difference. I will try it, starting from this post :)

10# Adding images to your posts

Images are good to have in your posts. They grab attention, they are indexed by Google..However, it's hard to find free quality images on the web. Check these sites:

All you have to do is mention the source of the image in your posts.

By this far I have used the Blogger default font for my posts. I have seen in many blogs where the authors use different fonts, more suitable for web:
Here is a small comparation of available fonts:

  • This was written with Comic Sans MS
  • This was written with Default Font
  • This was written with Courier New
  • This was written with Tahoma
  • This was written with Trebuchet
  • This was written with Verdana

I find Verdana-font to be most usable for blogging, so for now on I'll use it
for my post.

This is my second step turning my blog more visible, I'm gonna submit my site to Yahoo for indexing. The Yahoo Site Submit option is easy and free. All you have to do is enter the URL of the site you'd like to submit to be included in the Yahoo Search index. Must have a free Yahoo ID in order to do this (registration required).
