In my experiments with money making blogs I have found that it helps greatly if ...(i) you choose a blog name that is relevant to the niche / subject matter of the blog and
(ii) that the blog title contains some of your keywords.
I believe that by following these two steps it's possible to get decent positions on Google search pages.
If we take Mike's Money Making Mission as an example the following keywords give the blog a useful position:
Mikes Money Making Mission - 1st on Google (probably this would be expected!)
Mikes Money Making - 1st in Google
Mikes Money - 1st on Google
Money Making Mission - 1st on Google
Making Mission - 3rd on Google
Mikes Mission - 15th on Google
Now some readers will say something like ...
"Okay, but will people search those keywords?"
or
"What about the keywords: Money Making?"
My answers to this: Firstly people do search those words.
Secondly, with the keywords Money Making, there are over 38+ million search results. With all of the big boys about I wouldn't really expect to be number one, or even on the first couple of pages but ...
... this emphasises the need for long tail keywords.
For example, with these long tail keywords:
money making chain letters - MMMM is 2nd on Google
chain letters money making - MMMM is 1st on Google
money making zlio - MMMM is 1st on Google
money making blog - MMMM is 1st on Google
Plus there are lots of other examples which I won't bother to list.
All I'm trying to illustrate is the value of:
(1) Keywords in a blog's title and also
(2) Long tail keywords which also contain the title
keyword(s).
If we also take my Celebrity Insider blog. Search the keywords Celebrity Insider on Google or Yahoo and it's top of the pile.
That's it! Think blog names and long tail keywords.
Good luck,
Mike
