Show Adsense Ads Below Post Title

In most blog templates, placing Adsense ads below post title is a good way to increase your CTR (clickthrough rate). Below are the steps on how to do it:

Note: It is assumed that you have already customized your Adsense ad unit or link on Google Adsense.

1. On Gogle Adsense, get the code of the Adsense ad unit or link that you want to place below the post title.

2. Copy the code and convert it to HTML format on Hacktrix. Copy the converted code and put in a side for the mean time (Note: Hacktrix is not in anyway associated with Blogger Counselor).

It can be either a document in any form used as a planning tool for web design, or a web page that lists the pages on a web site, typically organized in hierarchical fashion. This helps visitors and search engine bots find pages on the site.”

When you publish a post, it may take days or even more than a week for it to be crawled by search engine bots. In my previous post, we have discussed how to submit sitemap to Google. Now, we will talk about submitting your sitemap to Yahoo! to get every page of your blog be indexed more promptly than usual.

Add Meta Tags to Blogger

According to Wikipedia, “meta elements (meta tags) provide information about a given Web page, most often to help search engines categorize them correctly.” And therefore, when search engines know your blog better, the more chances for your blog to get higher search engine rankings.

Swap Blog Title and Post Title to Improve SEO

The default positioning of Blogger title tag is <Blog Name>: <Post Title>. But do you know that this is actually NOT the ideal format to increase your chances of getting at the top of the search results?
