Yes. Do you have a perfect post title? I do (I think so). I use to wonder around Google a lot. Finding the stuffs that I want. I tried to look for latest TM product ~ UniFi (HSBB). Searching ‘UniFi Suck‘ in Google. Result as below…
What do you see? Can you find ‘UniFi Suck’? Well, I cannot. I can see i’m saimatkong… UniFi and Lowyat.NET : Malaysia’s Tech Enthusiast Resource Community in the first 2 results. Let’s take them as example since their SEO are good. Can be ranked 1 and 2. But does not have the perfect title.
Luckily, ‘i’m saimatkong’ blog name is short. Therefore, you still can see the whole blog post title. However, the case is not for Lowyat.NET, only ‘TM…’. Therefore, a good title arrangement is a must to attract more search engine visitors. You can have it this way…
Post title ~ blog name
or
Post title only
Make sure that those searchers can see what they want to search easily. Then you will have more incoming traffic from search engine. Is your blog post title in the correct way?
Is web hosting with dedicated IP address better than shared IP address?

Shared IP vs dedicated IP… Do I need dedicated IP for my blogs? That’s the question that I asked on July 2009. And I got myself a dedicated IP in the end. Thought of lot of things back then. SEO, traffic, search engine ranking were the factors that I made the purchase. Does it really help in SEO on improving my blogs traffic?
What is a dedicated IP?
You will get 1 unique IP number for your web hosting account – your primary domain. For my case, 70.40.213.222 is the dedicated IP that I own. When you type 70.40.213.222 into your web browsers address bar, it will route you to the main domain which is JayceOoi.com.
What is a shared IP?
Most of the websites have shared IP addresses. Depend on web hosting provider, 200 to 300 websites sharing the same 1 IP in shared web hosting package is normal. Some have less than 100 websites sharing 1 IP.
Who need a dedicated IP? What benefit does dedicated IP bring?
- Having your own Private SSL Certificate.
- Anonymous FTP.
- Access your website with IP even when the domain name is inaccessible.
Okay, there is lot of myths about dedicated IP on SEO. Some said it did improve Google PageRank and search engine ranking while some denied. I saw some blogs which rank higher in Google does have dedicated IP when I purchased it last year. It is just USD 2.50 per month for dedicated IP. Can’t you earn that back with your blogs? I asked myself. After using dedicated IP for more than 6 months, does my blog traffic increased? YES. But I did lot of other SEO optimizations too. So does dedicated IP really help? I don’t know…
Will you purchase dedicated IP for your blog?
How to get traffic to my website for free? This is a question that being asked by many of us including me. I have been blogging for almost 3 years. What have I done to increase my blog traffic? Well in short, I took the slow and steady move. Being as an application developer in MNC, I blog for part time only. Therefore, I do not have time that most professional bloggers have. However, it does not stop me from blogging professionally.
JayceOoi.com traffic sources on November 2009
JayceOoi.com is the first blog (I called it website for last 2 years as I did not want to admit that it is a blog) that I have. And then PrettyGirl2u.com and spBlogger.com. All of them have traffic from search engines for free. I am not going to discuss on every single step here, just high level as most of us know to do so already.
Things that I do to get traffic to my website for free…
- Make my website a search engine optimized (SEO) website.
- Comment at others’ blog.
- Active at famous forums.
- Don’t stop learning new stuff
Search engines love SEO websites. You will get lot of traffic there. All you need to do ~ get lot of incoming links as you can. Personally, I don’t blog purposely for search engine. There are some who do so in order to make money online. And it is proven that it work. I would like to have more direct traffic. Why? This mean that your blog is informative and people are willing to visit again. And indirectly, it will bring more incoming links too. Finally, I always keep this in mind.
Write good content, do proper marketing == money money traffic traffic come. 
Hmm… How does Google counts the incoming links? I don’t know. Do you? Anyway, here are the incoming links for all my blogs…
As at 9 October 2009
JayceOoi.com – 225 links
spBlogger.com – 118 links
PrettyGirl2u.com – 128 links
Forum.JayceOoi.com – 71 links.
Hey… Compare to 19 July 2009, JayceOoi.com and spBlogger.com dropped. But the other 2 up. Why I cannot get more than 1000 incoming links for JayceOoi.com???
Incoming link is very important to all of us. Especially in search engine world. The more incoming links you have, the higher your website will be placed. That’s mean more traffic from organic source ~ search engine. JayceOoi.com has 60 incoming links back on 11 Nov 2008. How about now? It should be better, right? Yaya… But still not so good enough. It has 254 incoming links now.
Well, I am writing this post because I want to keep track of my blogs incoming link. And here your are…
As at 19 July 2009
JayceOoi.com – 254 links
spBlogger.com – 134 links
PrettyGirl2u.com – 113 links

I always envy to those websites that have so much incoming links. How do they get so many link?
