How To Index Blogger Posts Faster

Every new blogger want to increase blog traffic fast, for this you need to index your blog fast.Indexing a new blog can take two weeks or more normally but we can fasten this process by simple tricks.Actually this process include two steps.In first step google bot collect information of your posts and add it in search index box.Once your posts will index google bot start crawling your blog.

Google bot is very busy because billions of people update their blog daily and even hourly and it can not index all of them simultaneously but today i will show you how to speed up this process.

How Google And Other search engines finds your blog?

You have to submit your blog or site's sitemap to webmaster tools to tell search engines that you have a site or blog and you want it to index your blog and its content. So after submitting sitemap to search engines, they crawl your blog or site and index its pages which are allowed to be indexed

Submit sitemap:

Sitemap is very important thing, it provide more information to Google and other search engine site crawlers that are bots to crawl and index your blog. It is a kind of notification to search engines about already publish post on your blog. When a sitemap is submitted to search engine it starts showing only submitted posts.

Posts You Might Need To Read:

Ping your blog:

Actually many newbies do not know about blogger seo and how search engine works and hence fails to get traffic. Pinging your blog tell search engine that your blog is updated and it helps to index your blog fast. You can ping your blog daily there is no limit but it is recommended to ping when you update your blog with fresh content.

You can ping your blog at https://pingomatic.com/

Fetch as google:

Use "Fetch As Google" in Google webmaster tools and Bing webmaster tools to submit your new posts and exclude those which you don't want to be indexed. You can find this tool in Google webmasters tools and Bing webmaster tools, I am not sure about Yandex. It will help to index your posts quickly.

Share your content:

Also share your new posts on social media. It also helps you to get targeted traffic, pining posts tp pinterest or making a video related to post and give related link in the description will bring you targeted traffic as well as boost indexing process. A blog which have all posts shared more on social media is considered as an active blog and crawling of new posts is faster than other blogs.

Submit blog to directories:

Submitting your blog to directories is very beneficial in indexing a new blog. There are paid as well as free directories available online. Dmoz is one of the very popular, human edited directory and its free, you can submit your blog to it and find other directories on Google!

Try out these tips, once your blog is indexed you will see the difference in your traffic. Do not rush and keep patience.

How To Stop Country-Specific Redircetion In Blogger

stop country specific redirection in blogger - 101helper

Google often updates blogger and always adds something new, which is sometimes good and sometimes bad, for example recently Google added "Featured posts widget" in blogger that many people liked and also added HTTPS feature that lets you enable HTTPS so browsers can consider your custom domain safe and secure. But some updates in blogger aren't good and one of them is country-specific redirection of blogspot e.g if you open 101Helper in India you will be redirected to 101helper.blogspot.in similarly in UK it will be redirected to 101helper.blogspot.co.uk which affects your blog in following ways:

5 Reasons To Stop Country Specific Redirection In Blogger:

1 - Affects On Performance: The first affect of country-specific redirection is on site performance, it slows down your blog because it takes time to redirect to country specific domain e.g in, fr, jp, uk, id etc

2 - Ads And Gadgets: Some ads are also affected by specific country redirection for example Revenuehits ads disappear when blogspot blog is redirect to a country's specific domain it may also happen in case of Adsense and your earnings can decrease. Another problem is some gadgets like web page translator stops working when a blog is redirected, it may happen with other gadgets too.

3 - Seo: Your backlinks gets divided because of different domains so you need to do more efforts to create backlinks for each country e.g blogspot.in backlinks, blogspot.co.uk backlinks etc. So its better to redirect your blog to top level domain that is dot com so you don't need extra work and efforts, you just have to concentrate on dot com.

4 - Socail Media Shares: Just like backlinks are divided because of country-specific redirection, social media shares are also affected because when a post of your blog is shared on......for example 10 times on Facebook from uk domain(yourblog.blogspot.co.uk) now when you visit yourblog.blogspot.com you will see zero Facebook shares so post shares are also divided.

5 - Crawling And Indexing: Some webmaster tools like Yandex show an error while indexing your blog, after submitting sitemap yandex show mirror site detected error it could be blogspot.in or blogspot.co.uk or other so your site isn't indexed.

So these errors emphasize to redirect all domains to the top level domain(.com). It will solve ads and gadgets loading problem, seo problem, crawling and indexing problems and improve your blog performance.

How To Set Auto Redirection From Country-Specific Redircetion To .COM In Blogger?

Follow below steps to set auto redirection from country specific domains to top level(.com) domain.

Step 1: Go to blogger dashboard.

How To Use Google Fonts In Blogger Blogs

how to use custom google web fonts in blogger

Font is one of the things that makes a site look great. A font gives your writing skills a style which impress your readers therefore choosing best fonts for site is really important. Especially in-case of fashion blogs font style is very important. Blogger has many built-in fonts but these are too common because everyone is using one or more of them, for example for titles they use a different font and for post body they use a different font so to a unique font for your blog you have to call it from some external source and then apply it in your blog. So this post is to teach you how to use custom fonts in blogger blogs. I will use Google fonts but you can use fonts from other websites also by following steps below. I am using Google fonts below they don't have any negative impact on page loading speed.

Follow below mentioned steps to use Google fonts in your blog.

Step 1: Go to Google Fonts

Step 2: Search for a font in Google fonts and click on the quick use icon as shown in below image(I am choosing Kimberly Geswein).

how to use google fonts in blogger blogs

Step 3: Scroll down to step 3 where you will see a code as shown in below image.

Step 4: Copy the code given in the box.

Step 5: Go to blogger dashboard > template and click on Edit Html.

Step 6: Below <head> paste the code you just copied.

how to use google fonts in blogger blogs 101helper

Note: Make sure to close the tag of code you just pasted like this(highlighted with yellow color!):

<link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Shadows+Into+Light' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' / >

Step 7: Search for below piece of code in your template by using Ctrl+F.

<Group description="Page Text" selector="body">

You will find some codes similar to this below the above piece of code:

<Variable name="body.font" description="Font" type="font"
default="normal normal 12px Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif" value="normal normal 12px Yanone Kaffeesatz"/>
<Variable name="body.text.color" description="Text Color" type="color" default="#222222" value="#666666"/>

Now all you have to do is to find value="........" in the codes you found and replace the font name with the name of the font which you want to apply to your page text. Make sure to use accurate name otherwise it will not work. You can find the accurate name of your font on the Google font page from where you copied the font code as shown in below image:

Step 8: Click on save template and you are done.

CSS Code For Different Titles:

After following above part of this post you might have default font for your blog title, post titles and gadgets which could only be modified with Css so following are the css codes for different titles(blog title,post titles,gadgets) which are to be included above ]]></b:skin> in your template.

For Post Titles:

.post-title.entry-title {font-family:Your font name;}

For Blog Title:

.Header h1 {font-family:Your font name;}

For Gadgets Title:

div.widget > h2, div.widget h2.title {font-family:Your font name;}

Replace Your font name with your font name which you have imported from Google

5 Sites To Submit Your Posts To Boost Traffic Instantly

New bloggers often search "how to boost or increase traffic instantly" and don't find any answer or usually get answers that are not satisfactory. So they head towards fake traffic or seo. Fake traffic is obviously useless because you don't either get money and that traffic is limited because same visitors visit your site again and again for points(traffic exchange) and there is no ad network that pay you for ordinary traffic. So fake traffic is not beneficial that's why bloggers optimizes their blogs for search engines to get traffic that is organic and unique, but the fact is that once your blog is optimized for search engines you will not get traffic in one day but you have to wait for months or for year. Actually it depends on your blog's topic e.g if you have a blog about making money you will get more traffic in less time because every 2nd person is surfing on internet to earn money.

So this post is about how can you increase your blog traffic instantly. It could be better called free promotion which is good because it will increase your blog reach as unique people will visit and know about your blog. So if they are interested in your content they will remember your blog or they may bookmark it to visit it again. It will help you in another way too that is backlinking and you can also get more subscribers on your fan pages.

So in this post I will tell you about five sites which could be useful for new blogs promotion and after submitting your blog to these sites you will see an instant boost in your traffic. If you don't get traffic in one day keep calm and work a little more because "Rome was not built in a day".
