It is old school SEO, which says a 6% keyword density has to be maintained in a well written SE optimized copy to make sure that the search engines pick up the keyword from the rest of the text. There has been no or very less changes to the keyword density algorithm that webmasters still follow the 6% keyword density rule.

Sometimes it’s difficult to find things on Google. Like for instance if you want to search for all the items and the websites related to “your keyword” today or yesterday on a time bound scale, things are going to be difficult.

There is a nice tool which let’s you do it. It works just like a Google search but, you have the option of opting for data to be shows that’s indexed on Google either today or yesterday, last 7 or 30 days. This is a nifty tool especially, when you are keyword researching.

• You can find out how frequent is people blogging on the keyword.
• Do a competition analysis on the keyword.
• Do a study and decide on how and what to write on the article, looking at what’s been written already.

Like for instance, you found an interesting keyword on Google Trends that is related to your niche. And you wanna immediately blog on it to get some traffic. So it makes sense to check out what’s indexed on Google today and yesterday on that keyword. So you don’t want to repeat yourself what some one else has written, which is likely to put you lower on the SERPs. Taking a look at what’s written yesterday and today on Google (indexed), you can easily figure out how to to title the article.

Ex: The current top most searched keyword on Google is “David Copperfield” and you decide to write an article on it.
You do a time bound search and find that many people have already written (today/test) on “David Copperfield Video”.
So you might not want to repeat it, rather write on “David Copperfiled latest Video Released” or something attractive like it (be honest with it please).

Enough said, try the tool here.

AdSense is indeed a fine tool to generate some cool cash online. The problem with many young bloggers is that they simply don’t use the AdSense units to optimal use. By optimal use I mean, getting the maximum from the ads using the least resources.

Many bloggers end up just adding the AdSense codes and just earn a few bucks from it even though there is good traffic. The problem here is that they are not able to make use of the traffic and use the ads in the right way to get the clicks.

Well, after all, all AdSense gurus say is  - put the ads in between the articles, mask them, use all the allowed ad units etc. Well, who doesn’t know that? Here are few AdSense plugins for wordpress I found interesting. Now, I can’t possibl tell you how and when to use it. That’s left for the clever guys, but I’ve found luck with most of them. They increase the revenue and also make managing ads a whole lot easier on AdSense.

4. AdSense plugin for sidebar

5. Add AdSense codes inline between posts
   yes, this plugin basically does that. it allows you to add the AdSense code in between articles, between the lines neatly.
6. AdSense plugin that allows to add images next to ads
   No..No..No, I know it is illegal, but this is not it. This plugin helps you add images next to your ads and also adds a line in between. This is legal according to google TOS. Update: This is against Google TOS. Sorry for the wrong information.
   
7. Increase revenue with AdSense referrals
   This plugin adds a neat “Install Firefox” button on your blog that has your referral code in it. So whenever there’s someone who visits your blog from another browser other than Firefox, it throws up the button (not to FF users). You can earn up to 1$ per referral.

Well, nothing much to give you any mileage but it helps you with a reference of all the things that you’ve stumbled in the past.

This tool helps you to import all your stumble upon favorites to one page, along with all the links to the websites you have stumbled and also categorizes them accordingly with tags.

A nice tool. I found it interesting to see all my stumbles on one page.
You can use this links page for several purposes such as -
- Resubmitting them to other social medias.
- Wiling away your time.
- Showing off your stumbles to your friends.
- Cross checking/Reviewing your stumble upon experience.

Okay, I cooked up all those but nevertheless the tool is cool. Check out.

Hey, there’s a cool site that will do just that. Search rapidshare (and some other infamous file storing services) for downloadable files with the name you are searching for.

This is really cool since rapidshare does not allow you to search it’s database while services like 4shared does. Rapidshare is the most popular service for temporary file storage, so this too may come in handy. I searched for “google” and here are the results. Some ebooks and some rar files. A word of warning, there could be illegal/virus infected files. The service does not scan the files for viruses unlike 4shared.

Search Rapidhsare files here.

The guys at MyBLogLog, Ian Kennedy and his team have been putting on some good show recently. First they released the MyBlogLog buttons , then they had a competition, and now they have a new widget, the AboutMe widget.

The ABout Me widget is an interesting one, if you have been planning to put all that social media profile links and a compressed profile with all the info on you, this is the widget for you.

Check this sample widget. It’s Ians. I had trouble customizing it for the blog and believe so many others too would’ve had the same problem. Yes, the colours and text were very much cusotmizable, but adjusting the width was a problem.

And guess that, the guys have gone ahead and added that option too. Now you can adjust the width of the widget suiting it for your blog.

I had tried the widget on the footer first, but thought I’ll wait for some more customization. Well, now with all the customization available, you might want to add it to your blog too.

After the Lijit guys, I’m liking the MyBlogLog guys too.

Some of you might have already spotted it.. for those who have not, here’s the news.

I have a new website directory launched at DaiySEOblog. You can find it here.

It is a simple directory which enables you to add your site with the Title, Description and URL to the appropriate category. No link back required ;)!

There are some interesting categories at the moment, and many of them are technology, blogging and internet related. I’ll be expanding it soon to at least 50 in number soon. My idea is to keep the listings close while focusing on the content.

Does it make any sense having two categories - Web 2.0, Internet, Blogging and Weblogs? No Isn’t it?
So I may stick with one category Internet. But it’s not that horrible as it sounds I have some really nice categories for you there.

I will be manually moderating the submissions to the directory, and ONLY quality websites will be added, just because I want to keep out spam and low-quality websites.

By quality, I mean sites with original content and good quality articles. If you have a young site with no incoming links at all, don’t fret, provided you have good articles and a decent post frequency, you’ll be included.

Why should you include your blog in the directory?

Good question. Here goes -

- It’ll fetch you some quality  google juice.
- Get indexed on Google and other major search engines in less than hours.
- Also some decent traffic (you may have to get creative on the description.)
- Get noticed by other DailySEOblog readers.
- You don’t have to copy paste a code to link back!
- It takes only less than a minute to submit a site.

Who is the directory for?

Yet another good question. Popular bloggers might find it irrelevant because, they already have submissions at various directories.
But this directory is for the young bloggers, the budding bloggers who have great content in their blogs but cannot find a place to show it off.

I have gone through this earlier when I started blogging. When I had a month old blog, I found it difficult to get people’s attention. And honestly speaking, even some of my friends today were not willing to link to me, they would simply avoid my request.

So this directory aims at taking young bloggers out of that frustration.

Here, we give free incoming links to all the quality bloggers out there who is looking for some attention and some google juice the next google update.

Having said that, I’m extremely concerned about the quality.

If you are still not convinced whether to submit your site or not, read this and this and this.
Meanwhile, if you have suggestions, forward them my way.

MyBlogLog who is running a competition for US bloggers to grow their community, has come up with a range of buttons for your blog.

Many of them are the standard 88×31pixels buttons that fits neatly to your sidepanel. I think they are a bit old fashioned and not really web 2.0.

Designers out there, if you have an idea for a button, do let them know. Ideas are always welcome at MyBlogLog.
