I have noticed from my previous post on Good Blogging Practice, that the title of a blog post is important. On that post I have integrated a poll titled-“Good Blogging Practice Part-1″-Does This Kind Of ‘Title’ Snatches Your Attention Toward Rest Of The Post?, and till date this post don’t have grabbed much attention towards my readers. So, there are some problems. What could be the problems?
- Lack of promotion
- Lack of readership
- or other problem
In my concern, the very problem is right promotion. Visibility is required for a blog to get acquainted with readers. We are human being always hungry for information and knowledge, and blog is the right media to get those food. Here the very problem is?unexpected growth of blogosphere. Today, each and every day lots of new comers are getting into this big sphere. So, proving yourself as a better blogger is not a silly job, and that needs quality writing, right promotion, etc.
By the way, I think for Espreson or other blogs, title is not a big factor, because 10 years back people weren’t familiar with the name of Blog, but today, a large number of people are aware of it. Today, ‘Good Blogging Practice Part-1′-this type of title is not hot, but who knows tomorrow.
As I have told earlier, Visibility is required for a blog to get acquainted with readers, but how? This is a big question for every blogger. So, ways of visibility is our concern, and in this regard I want to add some ways from my experience which could help you find visibility. Lets share,
- Getting engaged in some forums or discussion boards
- Genuine on-the-topic commenting on other blogs (No! spam comment like, nice post, nice coverage, etc.)
- Other methods
In the next upcoming part I will cover all the above ways, so be in touch.

About title of a blog:
I tend to approach this from the search engine optimization point of view. Which is, I think, not too far from the point of view of someone doing a quick skim over a list of blogs.
From that point of view, title is important: because the blog is easier to find if the first few words of the title contain at least one keyword.
I’m not fanatic about that: “Easy Griller” is the name of one of my blogs, and it’s about grilling. But “griller” is close.
My first website has a name that is poetically appropriate for the topic, but a very poor choice for getting noticed. “Brendan’s Island” gets a very great many hits from people looking for information about the Irish saint. I finally gave in and added a page about him.
That name is a mistake I’ll not make again.
Thanks for making this series of posts: I’m looking forward to the next.
