Artur,

After reading your post, it's fairly safe to say that a .com will rank higher than a .pt as a generic rule. BUT... there are lots of other factors to take into consideration as well. You are using wordpress, one of the best things about it is that it has a huge community behind it and you will find lots of support on their site in the forums and FAQ's. I understand that delving into the PHP in WP can be a bit daunting but as long as you look into the forums and FAQ sections in the wordpress site you will be fine.

Hi Steve, hello everyone ...

Steve nice list of "How to`s". Good content for newbies like me.

I know a bit of SEO and implement some of yours "how to advices".

The best platform is WP, but is a litle bit more dificult to learn that blogger because i dont understand much PHP.

I`ve a few blogger blogs and Sapo blogs. I´m portuguese i want to target portuguese readers. If y make a free WP blog with a .com domain it make a better posicion on google.pt than a Sapo blog with a .pt domain?

Thanks for the answer in advance.

Artur,

high demand/low supply is the key for your niche. Find a niche that is wanted and spin it to suit you. Niches within a niche can be really good.

Hi, great article, thank you for sharing this information with the rest of us...

There is no mention however of how to give focus to a blog and optimize content well, and most importantly how to drive traffic and get visitors.

Thank you.

Contextual ads operate much like traditional pay-per-click search engine ads. You bid for placement and pay a fee each time someone clicks on your ad, but instead of your ads appearing in search engine results, they appear on web pages on other sites.

I like to compare contextual ads to ads you might find in a magazine. Pick up any special niche magazine and you'll see ads for products or services related to the subject matter of the magazine as well as ads on subjects that might be of interest to readers in the magazine's subscriber demographics.

Want a good reason to try contextual advertising? Think volume and exposure. Consider all the sites you visit each day on the Web. Most of these are candidates for contextual advertising. Cpxclick.com claims to have partnerships with over 500 search engine sites in the system already. For a company wanting widespread exposure on the web, I can't think of another medium that has the potential reach of contextual advertising.

Great article. Certainly good for new bloggers and probably wise words for experienced bloggers as well. (Maybe just check the spelling a bit :) ) I think patience is the key too. Rome wasn't built in a day, so that is VERY good advice. Hope you don't mine me linking back to this article.

Great Post! Some really useful tips here. But just a note about changing the permalink structure:

I agree that changing it is a must - but if you're just starting out, be careful about using /%category%/%postname%/, unless you are very sure that your categories wonâ€™t change.

I fell into this trap - as my blog matures, I need to tweak the categories, which would break my permalinks.

Great tips. I'd also suggest using Faststone Capture for taking screenshots. It's the best tool I've found for this necessary blogging task.

Yep, most everything in this world comes down to marketing -- in my humble. You have to buy what you're selling and sell it constantly. Writing a blog is no different, you have to believe that you have as much knowledge about your subject as you want to convey.

Actually, starting a blog isn't like starting a business. Starting a blog is like writing in a paper journal, and that's not very business-like is it? Positioning yourself as a guru or otherwise expert in something on your blog is like starting a business. You've got to be shrewd and write interesting things.

I think the hardest thing is to find a topic that you a) love to write about, b) won't get bored writing about, and c) isn't a carbon copy of what your chosen blogging guru is writing about.

Starting a blog is just like starting a business IMHO â€“ you need a unique selling proposition. If you've got that then I think you're most of the way there!!

Great article - thanks! :D
