Post to blogger via email

The Mail-to-Blogger feature turns any email account into a blog-posting application. In Settings | Email you can create a Mail-to-Blogger address which you will use to send posts via email to your blog:
To post to your blog via email, you need to configure your Mail-to-Blogger email address in Settings | Email:
The format of the email address is username.secretword@blogger.com. Note that this email address must be kept secret. Otherwise, anyone who gets it will be able to post as you.
Also be sure to specify whether or not you prefer your email posts to publish automatically. If this option is not checked, then your posts will be saved on your account but will not appear on your blog until you log in to Blogger.com and publish them yourself.
Once you have saved your Settings, you can send email to your blog. The subjects of your email letters will be the titles of your posts, and the body of the emails will be the posts themselves. To include an image in your post, you can attach an image to you your email.
Notes:

• Sometimes email programs append text to the bottom of each sent message; to make sure this cruft doesn't get posted to your blog, put #end at the end of your post.

Make Visitors Come Back To Your Blog?

In previous postings I've seen a little how to bring in new visitors. This time I will discuss about how to order a new visitor returns to your blog.

When new visitors come, they will read your blog. Start from here will be a long affair. You have to look backwards. Before they come, you must make arrangements so that people who have your sleigh with difficulty into your blog, and likes to read your blog content.

They just want to go back to your blog if your content is useful. If they did not find any benefit on your blog, then do not hope they will return.

This is your duty to carefully give them what really be a benefit for your prospect. Give what they want, and guaranteed you will like.

The things you can do is:

    * Create a topic of interest.
    * Write a compelling headline.
    * Write an article full of benefits.

Besides you look back, you also have to look forward.

It means what?

Before the visitor arrives you should already provide interesting content. We already know that. But what about after a visitor arrives, what can you offer to them so they want to go back again?

Not because of content, but because of other things. Create "something" that could make them to want to come again. Think about what the best things you can do to make it back.

Some of them, you can do:

    * Send an email to them every new article you posted.
    * Offer a bonus for those who participate comments.
    * Make a quiz or a questionaire on your blog.

Actually there are many other creative ways. But the most important thing is, all of you at first repeat visitors are new visitors.

Your task as the owner of the blog is to juggle as many new visitors into repeat visitors. The higher the percentage, the greater the number of repeat visitors you receive. So that would lead to more rapid growth of traffic to your blog.

So, have you ready to make changes to your blog, so that more and more visitors to your blog? I am waiting for your comments.

How to insert Codes and Scripts in Blogger Posts

If you enter any Java Script or HTML code in your posts, Blogger will automatically execute that code considering it a regular part of your post. We just need to encode our HTML special characters like <, >, & into entities <, >, &. This is a really painful process but Beta Templates is here to help you.


1- Go http://www.blogcrowds.com/resources/parse_html.php or to http://www.eblogtemplates.com/blogger-ad-code-converter/  paste your code in the box there and press CONVERT AD CODE button.
2- The page will refresh and you'll see that the code you pasted in the box has changed. Don't worry, copy that code and paste it in your post.
3- Publish your post and you'll see that your original code will appear perfectly without execution.
Tip: When you're trying to directly copy-paste Adsense code in Blogger HTML, you'll first need to convert it otherwise you might receive an error.

Top 15 effective Tips to Increase Blog Traffic !

Every Blogger Should Read this tips to increase traffic !

Top amazing Tactics to Increase Blog Traffic

here are the best Simple Ways to Get Your Blog Noticed in the Blogosphere !

The blogosphere is a big and busy world with over 100 million blogs and growing. How do you attract visitors to your blog? Follow these simple tips to drive traffic to your blog.

1. Write Well and Write Often

Frequently updating your blog with useful content is the first step to building your blog's audience. The content you write is what will keep readers coming back for more. Make sure you have something meaningful to say to them and say it often to maintain their interest and keep them loyal.
Furthermore, post frequently to increase the number of chances you have for your blog's content to be noticed by search engines such as Google or Technorati.

2. Submit Your Blog to Search Engines

Get on the radar screen for the popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo! by submitting your blog's URL to them. Most search engines provide a 'Submit' link (or something similar) to notify the search engine of your new blog, so those search engines will crawl it and include your pages in their results.
It's important to understand that simply submitting your blog to search engines doesn't mean your pages will appear at the top of a Google search results screen, but at least your blog will be included and will have the chance of being picked up by a search engine.

3. Use and Update Your Blogroll

By adding links to sites you like in your blogroll, the owners of those blogs will find your blog and will be likely to add a reciprocal link in their blogrolls. It's an easy way to get the link to your blog in front of many readers on other blogs. The hope is that some of those readers will click on the link to your blog on the other blogs' blogrolls and find your content interesting and enjoyable turning them into loyal readers.

4. Harness the Power of Comments

Commenting is a simple and essential tool to increase your blog's traffic. First, respond to comments left on your blog to show your readers that you value their opinions and draw them into a two-way conversation. This will increase reader loyalty.
Second, leave comments on other blogs to drive new traffic. Make sure you leave your blog's URL in your comment, so you create a link back to your own blog. Many people will read the comments left on a blog post. If they read a particularly interesting comment, they are highly likely to click on the link to visit the commentor's website. It's important to make sure you leave meaningful comments that are likely to invite people to click on your link to read more.

5. Syndicate Your Blog's Content with an RSS Feed

Setting up an RSS feed button on your blog makes it easy for your loyal readers to not just read your blog but also know when you publish new content.

6. Use Links and Trackbacks

Links are one of the most powerful parts of your blog. Not only are links noticed by search engines, but they also act as a tap on the shoulder to other bloggers who can easily identify who is linking to their sites. Linking helps to get you noticed by other bloggers who are likely to investigate the sites that are linking to them. This may lead them to become new readers of your blog or to add links to your blog from theirs.
You can take links to other blogs a step further by leaving a trackback on the other blog to let them know you've linked to them. Blogs that allow trackbacks will include a link back to your blog in the comments section of the post that you originally linked to. People do click on trackback links!

7. Tag Your Posts

It takes a few extra seconds to add tags to each of your blog posts, but it's worth the time in terms of the additional traffic tags can drive to your blog. Tags (like links) are easily noticed by search engines. They're also key to helping readers find your blog when they perform searches on popular blog search engines such as Technorati.

8. Submit Your Posts to Social Bookmarking Sites

Taking the time to submit your best posts to social bookmarking sites such as Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit and more can be a simple way to quickly boost traffic to your blog.

9. Remember Search Engine Optimization

When you write your blog posts and pages, remember to optimize your pages for search engines to find them. Include relevant keywords and links but don't overload your posts with too many relevant keywords or completely irrelevant keywords. Doing so can be considered spamming and could have negative results such as your blog being removed from Google's search entirely.

10. Don't Forget Images

Images don't just make your blog look pretty, they also help people find you in search engine listings. People often use the image search options offered by Google, Yahoo! and other search engines, and naming your images with search engine optimization in mind can easily boost your traffic.

The blogosphere is a big and busy world with over 100 million blogs and growing. How do you attract visitors to your blog? Follow these simple tips to drive traffic to your blog.

11. Consider Guest Blogging

Guest blogging can be done when you write a guest post on another blogger's blog or when another blogger writes a guest post on your blog. Both methods are likely to increase traffic as your blog will be exposed to the other blogger's audience. Many of the other blogger's readers will visit your blog to see what you have to say.

12. Join Forums, Web Rings or Online Groups

Find online forums, web rings, groups or social networking sites such as Facebook and LinkedIn where you can share ideas and ask questions of like-minded individuals. Add a link to your blog in your signature line or profile, so each time you post on a forum or participate in another online network, you're indirectly promoting your blog. Chances are many people will click on that link to learn more about you.

13. Promote Outside Your Blog

Promoting your blog shouldn't stop when you step outside the blogosphere. Add your blog's URL to your email signature and business cards. Talk about it in offline conversations. It's important to get your name and your blog's URL noticed offline, too.

14. Nominate Yourself and Other Blogs for Blog Awards

There are a number of blog awards given out throughout the year. Nominating yourself and other blogs and bloggers can draw attention to your blog and drive traffic to it.

15. Don't Be Shy

The most important part of the blogosphere is its community and much of your success as a blogger will be tied to your willingness to network with that community. Don't be afraid to ask questions, join conversations or just say hi and introduce yourself. Don't sit back and hope the online world will find you. Speak out and get yourself noticed. Let the blogosphere know you've arrived and have something to say!

Which Blogging Software do I need to choose ?

Questions Bloggers need to know before Choosing a Blogging Software!
Before You Choose Your Blogging Software, Ask Yourself These Six Questions

Choosing a blogging software can be confusing because on the surface, the various blogging software products such as Wordpress, Blogger, TypePad, Moveable Type, LiveJournal and more are quite similar. Following are six questions to ask yourself before you select your blogging software to help you make the best choice to be a successful blogger.
1. What Are Your Goals for Your Blog?

Do you want to blog for fun or are you trying to make money or build a popular, highly-trafficked blog? The blogging software you choose is largely dependent upon your goals for your blog. Ask yourself the following questions to determine your goals for your blog:

    * How much space will you need to store your blog's images and content?
    * Do you want to display ads on your blog?
    * Do you want to add forums and other features to your blog?

2. Do You Need to Significantly Customize Your Blog's Design?
Blogging software varies in terms of its ability to allow bloggers to customize the appearance and layout of their blogs with logos, specific fonts, designs and more. It's important that you determine the amount of customization you want and need for your blog before you select your blogging software.
3. Are You or Is Someone You Know Technical?
Different blogging software platforms require varying amounts of technical skill and knowledge. While there are blogging software options that even the most technically-challenged people can navigate and use successfully, many of the blogging software packages that provide advanced customization and features require at least some technical ability.
4. Will Your Blog Have Multiple Authors?
Some blogging software platforms are easier to configure with multiple authors than others. Determine your author needs before you choose your blogging software.
5. Do You Need Custom Email Addresses Tied to Your Blog's Domain Name?
If you want to have email addresses customized to match your blog's domain name than your blogging software options are more limited. Even if this is something you may not need in the short term, it's important to think about it now before you choose your blogging software.
6. Do You Have Money to Spend Each Month on Blogging Software and a Blog Host?
Your budget will have a significant impact on the blogging software you choose. While there are many free blogging software platforms available online, those free blogging programs typically offer limited features. Although those limited features are usually adequate for the average blogger, they may not be enough for your blog depending on your long term goals for it.
