How important is blog posting for SEO results?
If you are looking for a way to get free exposure and traffic this is definitely the way to go. Believe me I know I have plenty of my blog links on the top of the major search engines. And I was surprised at how easy it was after I finally figured it out.
Now I am no SEO expert but after years of blogging and trial & error I figured out to get my blog posts to the top of the major search engines, especially Google. This is my view and experience as to why I think it is happening.
First of all my blog has been around for a few years so it has some aged SEO rankings and has been been spidered everyday for those few years. So just by that alone it has some authority with search engine optimization. I am not sure if this has anything to do with it but this blog is also self hosted, not on a Word Press server. My blog is hosted by Hostgator
Secondly I learned the extreme impotence of keywords and the power of keywords in SEO. Also how important title tags are. You want keywords in your title tag of the particular post page. Also the first 3-4 words should be the main keywords for that blog post title, because that is the way people do searches on the engines.
Also use keywords throughout your post or article. Don’t keyword stuff your post do about 7-10 keywors per 500 word article or post. Also use different keywords for main topic which gives the search engines more to grab for the particlular topic. Don’t underestimate the importence of using keywords. Also if you have any images in your blog post put a keyword in the image code.
If you have a Word Press blog on their server or self hosted on a different server you want to use this plugin for your SEO marketing “All In One SEO Pack” it is on this page click here for free plugin. It is the premiere SEO plugin for wordpress to optimize your blog for search engine traffic.
You also want to ping your blog to some pinging services so the search engines know your blog has been updated with a blog post. The one I use is called pingomatic and is FREE
That’s it not much to it, it is easier than you think. Any blog post I do now gets on the top Google right away. The quickest I have seen my blog post hit the top page of Google is within 14 minutes, that’s fast.

Hey Regina
You absolutely can. Just get the all in one SEO pack plugin from the plugin search and upload it and you can set your SEO parameters for each blog post, I use it all the time.
Let me know if you have any other questions I am more than happy to help.
