    “If you have a blog, whether you realize it or not, copyright is a subject that directly impacts your life.

    Not only are you constantly creating new copyrighted works while making your blog but, most likely, you are integrating other’s works into your site including your blogging application (IE: WordPress), your theme, images with your posts, quotes, etc.

    However, there is a lot of confusion and misunderstanding on matters of copyright. Some of it is because the law is genuinely confusing, some of it is caused by misinformation that is being spread around the Web and much of it is the simple fact that most bloggers aren’t interested in these issues.”

  • Blog SEO Tips

    “Here are a few neat Search Engine Optimization (SEO) tips to help your blog rank a little higher in search engines. Why should you listen to me about blog SEO? Granted this blog is fairly new, and PageRank 0, but most of my posts get listed in Google for the keyword I want within minutes, and I am actually on the first page right now for “adsense privacy” and “adsense cookies” (depends on your browsing history now).

    Now, it is not very difficult to get into the first page as a “recent” result, even without much SEO – these are blog posts and other news items within the last few hours that show up in Google search results. Try it – if you search Google for relevant news when it happens (try Googling a Twitter trend) you will see a few blogs and sites with lower “authority” but when you search for them a few hours later they will be lower.

    Often, these “fresh results” seem to completely drop out of the search results before going into the “main” index. Remember: now that Google uses your web history to refine results, you may need to clear cookies, clear web history, and change your Google search settings to see the “default” results, and you have less control over your position for your target keyword phrases in actual visitor searches.”

    “I first began blogging a little less than three years ago and I have certainly come a long way in this field since that first post. At first, it was a passive hobby, something to satisfy my knack at web and graphic design while at the same time being able to express what I was learning. Yet now, I love the passion of writing and the excitement of encouraging and challenging others.

    A very large portion of my audience here at Site Sketch 101 is composed of other like-minded bloggers. Many of you find yourself somewhere along that same journey that I have been taking. Many of you want to improve your abilities to influence others through your blog.

    It is important to begin with content. Many other attributes of a blog, including design and marketing, are useless if you cannot provide your readers with quality entertaining, challenging, and informative articles. In fact, you may have the neatest design in the world, yet without great posts your readership will only be mediocre. Follow these guidelines to begin transforming the quality of your blog.”
