  • Include Target Keywords in Title of the Bogs- while it may be hard to always do this, by keeping the title related to the topic, your blog will always be relevant
  • Make use of  H1 tags - All blog editors allow for custom templates, so be sure to stylize your blog title in the H1 tags
  • Link With Other blogs - Find other related blogs that your readers might find interesting, and ask for a link in return
