Blogger SEO - Publish, And Publicise

One of the odder questions, by folks who just don't get it, comes from the folks who value SEO - but don't want to work for it.
Why is Blogger so weak on SEO?

What many folks just don't realise is that Blogger leaves the SEO to us - because Blogger supports other folks rights to publish their blogs anonymously, and without SEO. It's your choice - and it's your effort to make - either way.

The choices, provided to us by Blogger / Google, are quite basic.
Which ever decision you make, controlling the search engines is a key step, on the way to anonymity - or to fame and fortune. And use of Google Webmaster Tools is a key process, in controlling the search engines, and in evaluating success.

In either case, learn the issues involved, in fulfilling your personal goal. Don't expect Blogger to do it all for you.

Make your blog a combination of what you want - and what will please your readers.

Who wouldn't want their blog to be known in the internet? Whether you use SEO on it, people will somehow find their way to your blog.

Alexis,

Believe it or not, some people want to stay anonymous - or be visible only to a small group of friends.

Adding A Link To Your Blog Post

Occasionally, you see a very odd, cryptic complaint I just added a link in my blog, but the link vanished! No, it wasn't your imagination.

Embedded Comments And Main Page View

The option to display comments, embedded below the post, was made a blog option relatively recently. This was a long requested feature - and many bloggers added it to their blogs, as soon as the option was presented to us. Some blog owners like this feature so much, that they request it to be visible when the blog is opened, in main page view. I would like all comments, and the comment form, to be shown underneath the relevant post, automatically, for everyone to read without clicking on the number of comments link. And this is not how embedded comments work.

What's The URL Of My Blog?

We see the plea for help, periodically I need the URL of my blog, so I can give it to my friends. Help! Who's buried in Grant's Tomb, after all? No Chuck, be polite. OK, OK. The title of this blog is "The Real Blogger Status", and the title of this post is "What's The URL Of My Blog?".
