By default Fast Blog Finder searches for blogs using footprints programmed inside the program. In the version 3.2 we added the ability to use custom footprints instead of the default ones. This little yet very powerful feature makes your search potential almost UNLIMITED.

If you see a decrease in human traffic to your website, it's most likely because your site lost its position on the first page in search engine results. It's time to sit and think how you could improve the situation. Below I share with you 5 obvious but sometimes overlooked tips to master your website search engine optimization:

So many sites provide so much information about search engine optimization, so it's sometimes difficult to understand what to do and what not to do to optimize your website for search engines. You can really be stuck if you are new to SEO. I'm going to help you put your knowledge in order by telling you about the most common SEO myths and giving some useful tips as one goes.

If you’ve been blogging for a while, you’ve probably realized how time-consuming the whole process can be. Taking your blog to the next step involves coming up with fresh content using various different perspectives, a feat that often cannot be simply accomplished on your own. Recruiting several regular contributors is a great way to push your blog from a personal pet project to a something that can create money, recognition, or both. Here are a few ideas for finding additional bloggers to contribute to your blog:

Blog commenting and directory submission are the simplest ways to get search engine friendly links to your website that help your site rank high in SERP. But blog commenting and directory submission are very time consuming if you don't use the right tools.

Now you can submit your website to directories in the easiest and fastest way — using Fast Directory Submitter.

The development of the new 2 version of Fast Directory Submitter is finished. The program underwent many changes and improvements and we have every reason to say that it takes directory submission to a higher level.

And here you can learn about the differences between Fast Blog Finder Gold and Free editions.

How to upgrade?

Fast Blog Finder v3.0 has a new engine which recognizes new blog platforms and finds much more DoFollow blogs than the previous version. When developing the v3.0 we spent many hours for manually verifying hundreds of blogs to ensure that the program determined the blog type correctly.

Despite this, we don’t expect the program to be 100% accurate in analyzing the blogs. So, we added the "Report Wrong Blog Type" option to the program. Using this option you can send us the URL of the blog that was determined incorrectly by Fast Blog Finder. We'll check it out and make improvements in the program engine. When a new version of the checking engine is available, Fast Blog Finder will download it automatically when you open the program. You won't need to re-download and re-install the entire program. Fast Blog Finder will update the checking engine automatically every time a new version of it is available.

Well, now I continue my tests…

We’ve been working hard at the new 3 version of Fast Blog Finder and now I've got my private 3.0 version to test.

In addition to the improved search and checking engine, we added several new features to the v3.0.

So, the new version can determine the blog type from two new platforms and find much more DoFollow blogs where you can comment on.

Plus, the v3.0 can skip the blogs where you must login or register to post a comment and search for your approved comments on the blogs.  And in the v3.0 there is the form auto-fill option where you can create different profiles (name, email, URL, and signature) for different niches.

Is it worth to upgrade to the v3.0? Let’s see.

In the Part I we found out that not all the links pointing to a website are equally valuable and may be divided into 3 types based on their impact on the website position in search engines.

In this part we’ll examine the factors that primarily affect the PageRank. If the PR is important for you, you can pay attention to these factors too.

The key factor in achieving top positions in search engines is link popularity. The more sites are pointing to your website, the better. Any link you obtain has some impact on your search engine rankings.

Not all the links you build are equal. In this article I talked about the types of links you should avoid in order not to spoil your search engine rankings.

Now I’d like to speak about quality links to help you clearly understand what you should focus your efforts on.
