Blog Ranking Issues
Why some blog posts don’t rank.
Everyday more and more people are getting involved with Internet Marketing, buy blogging. It is a real shame that many people spend hours writing articles and blog posts and then destroy their hard work by spamming the article / blog post with to many outbound links.
- They start panicking because they have a lot of search engine competition.
- They register many Free Blogs and fall into the trap of “overload”.
- They are so desperate to get their main website ranked that they damage their blog posts by placing to many outbound anchor links pointing to the website that they are trying to help.
I WILL GIVE YOU A SHORT TO THE POINT ANSWER.
Background
We publish many articles, press releases and blog posts for clients.
We have found that if you have more than two outbound links in your text that the search engine ranking and priority of your blog post gets downgraded.
Solution
- Write shorter articles which point to the complete article located on your main website.
- Place one contextual anchor link within the first sentence of the blog post. This ensures that if another website syndicates your RSS Feed that your main anchor link will appear on the syndicating website.
- Make sure that the title of the blog post contains the main “anchor link phrase” – The title of this blog post contains the phrase “Internet Marketing” and the first outbound anchor link is on the phrase “Internet Marketing” which is pointing to one of our website EuropeInternetMarketing.com.
- And if you must, you can place one outbound link at the end of the post that gives credit to the author.
- Schedule your blog posts – WordPress offers you the option to schedule your blog posts – Depending on how many blog posts you have to publish, try to schedule the publication for one a day or every second day
