Finally Indexed and Working on SEO now

Well, back to my night job of trying to make money online.  The blog is indexed now on google.  My first post was two weeks ago, so it took two weeks to get indexed, but I didn't write any articles for a while. The first article that I wrote about my website was about one week ago.  So, taking that into consideration I figure that it took about a week to get indexed on google.  The site is still not indexed on yahoo but google is the search engine that really matters.  


The next step is to try and get my site higher up in the search for making money online.  I know this may take a while, but I think it is good practice for other sites and blogs.  Once I get the hang of blogging and some of these techniques, I will be moving on.  I'm planning on keeping this site going to track progess of different online money techniques, so we can find out what work and what doesn't.


In each post you'll notice that I try to use my keywords relatively frequently.  This is one major aspect of getting ranked in search engines.  Whatever search engine is looking at you needs to know what your site is all about.  If you are trying to base a blog around techniques for money making and just take about dog grooming never mentioning the main purpose you are out of luck.  Your site will get picked up for dog grooming and not for the reason you wanted.  


Another good technique I've noticed is starting and ending each post with you keywords.  You should also bold those keywords at least once per post.  These are different things that search engines look at and notice when crawling through your site.   


Well, that's it for now.  I've got to get to some other things.  Actually, I need to relax a little.  Going to watch a movie.  Hopefully, you enjoy the blog and are learning a little about how to set one up yourself.  If you are than keep coming back and try and make some money with me.  For now though, it's a good thing I haven't quit my day job.
