Tools You Need in Blog Marketing
Here are tools that will help you in blog marketing:
Links
To extend your blog’s reach, you need to create links to it. If you’re trying to build a customer base, you need more than just a couple of links: the more, the better. Also, you need to get links from sites that are reliable and are recognized to be authorities in your field.
Videos
Videos are great way to attract site visitors. Tutorials and “how-to” videos will get your site visitors talking about your site. Using videos for blog marketing also enables you to submit your blog to video directories. If you have videos that suit the market of your blog, take advantage of them. Submit your blog to all of the directories where it fits in.
Paid directories
If you have funds for you blog marketing, then use them to submit your blog to paid directories. Paid directories set standards for the sites they list. Getting your blog in these directories reassures your site visitors of the quality content that you try to provide.
Press releases
You can also use press releases when promoting your blog. You can have a press release written about your blog for a fee. You then submit it to all of the latest news sites. Press releases work wonders in getting your blog known. Having your site linked from these news sites will also help it generate more visitors as well. The cost of press releases varies with the company or person who writes them, but the cost is usually reasonable and will easily fit within your marketing budget.
Discussion boards
Forums, message boards, and other discussion boards are a great way to establish your online presence. However, make sure that you only post on a message board that is relevant to your blog. Else, no one will be interested enough to click your link. You’ll find it easy attracting new readers to your blog with the use of message board posting, provided that you are an expert in your field.
To bring some more traffic into your blog, look for other blogs that have the same target market as yours and leave comments on the articles. If your comments are full of useful information, you will certainly attract visitors to click the link to your site.
If you use these tools, you’ll find blog marketing easier. Considering that millions of websites compete for that precious click, it takes skill and diligence to become famous in the Internet. Start small and know where to find help when you need it. That’s the road to success in blog marketing.

Google Page Rank
My blogging tips:
1.Learn from the experts.
2.Check, maintain and tracks your links.
3.Use relevant keywords in titles and in the body of blog posts. Use Google Suggest. As you type into the search box, Google Suggest guesses what you’re typing and offers suggestions in real time. This is similar to Google’s “Did you mean?” feature that offers alternative spellings for your query after you search, except that it works in real time. By suggesting more refined searches up front, Google Suggest can make your searches more convenient and efficient by keeping you from having to reformulate your query. Google Suggest might offer suggestions that you will find novel or intriguing.
4.Validate your html in your draft posts and clean it up prior to publication.
Validate the html on your front page and correct all errors.
5.Set up a Google Webmaster Account, verify your blog and use Google webmaster tools.
Use the resources at Google Webmaster Center.
Automatically inform Google when you update your pagesGoogle Webmaster Tools provide you with detailed reports about your pages’ visibility on Google. To get started, simply add and verify your site, and you’ll start to see information right away.

Google Optimization - Key Factors
Make sure your new pages link to your old ones (related posts).
Add a sitemap to your blog.
Use title optimization
Use but do not overuse relevant keywords in your posts.
Submit your site to web-directories.
Use robot.txt files to prevent non-relevant content from being scanned.
Submit your site to Google for site verification.
Write blog content for your readers - not for search engines.

Optimising your images
Google seems to prefer images of a reasonable resolution, and that makes sense because so do people. If you have to use small thumbnails on your page, make it link to a bigger image of 800×600 or bigger.
Name images in the format “/images/my-image.jpg”
Do not rename or move an image unless you really have to. The Google image bot is very slow at indexing images, so by renaming an image it may disappear out of Google for 6+ months.
No upper case filenames (nothing to do with SEO, but for your peace of mind when you move that Windows site to Linux)
NO SPACES in filenames
Use rewriting where images are dynamic
Name your image to match the phrase you want to be found for, where appropriate
Use relevant alt attributes on the images that include the phrase you want to target. Try to include the phrase in the alt attribute and filename
Use the search phrase in text in close proximity to the image. A caption below the image is perfect.
