The title suggests the author is going to explain some very sophisticated ways to get traffic/leads from blogging, yet goes on to talk about fairly straightforward things everybody should know: ie having blog in own subdomain.
- josefresco 13y agoYeah it started out very in depth but then mentioned one very obvious fundamental SEO practice (something Matt Cutts bestowed upon us many months/years ago) and then goes off into bizarro land with the CMS stuff at the end.
- aerosmile 13y agoJose, I appreciate that feedback. I tried to address readers of all levels of SEO experience, so I started out with the basics and then progressively went deeper into some more advanced topics. It sounds like I could have been more clear i my writing. If you have any specific questions about the CMS stuff, just let me know.
- josefresco 13y agoSorry for the harsh criticism (this is HN after all) I just was confused and it's probably my fault based on assumptions I had going in. I tend to eat up SEO articles because I have small business web clients for whom I perform SEO service but this was more targeted for larger online brands running blogging or content creation networks.
- bhouston 13y agoIt says the opposite in the article, that you shouldn't have blog.domain.com, but rather it should be hosted on the main domain.
- aerosmile 13y agoAs someone else pointed out, that's exactly the opposite of what I suggested. Here's more info why putting your blog on a subdomain is not a good idea: http://www.agent-seo.com/blogging/seo-subdomain-vs-subdirectory/ http://www.agent-seo.com/blogging/seo-subdomain-vs-subdirect...
