The first blog was created in the year 1994 since
then blogging has evolved from what it was then
into today's microblogging platforms.
According to mediakiv.com, there are more than
440 million blogs and websites in the blogosphere
today and each day more blogs are opened.
Looking critically at the large and growing amount
of blogs and websites it would be wise to note
that the workload on search engines in crawling
and indexing these sites is pretty enormous.
Thus, ranking becomes a little harder than it
should be. But, by structuring your site in the right
way, search engines would be forced into
recognizing your blog/website and concurrently
rank it.
To set your blog and website for search
engine recognition, you have to follow these SEO
best practices on structuring your blog for search
engine recognition. And they are:
1. Search Engine Friendly URLs
Have you ever visited a page in a site and the link
looks like this
http://www.domain.com/fam/
ck_offline.php?.p=_pid=52277dadgbfbfee288_did=16
6862_bid=1598150.html?m=1
This is an embarrassing mess!
The length of URLs is capable of confusing search
engines and site visitors who would want to share
your blog updates by the directly copying and
pasting the post's link.
Sites with clear, short URLs are always search
engine friendly as they rank better on Google
search engine.
To get a shot at ranking well on search engines
make your URLs as short as possible.
Blogging platforms like Blogger for example
allows you to customize your URL of a post.
2. Site Navigation
It is a general rule that making it easy for your
blog readers also makes it easy for search
engines.
Keep your site simple. Make sure your site is
easily understood by visitors.
A site that is not properly designed to suit easy
navigating confuses search engines when they try
to pick out the contents on the site.
Your website navigation should be made up of real
text links and not images.
As an additional boost, You can include the links
to pages you want search engines to crawl on your
homepage.
