Blogger.com is a free blogging platform that is owned by Google.

One strategy is to set up a blogger blog as your main website. It’s quick and easy.

Another strategy is to set up a Blogger blog as a method to get links to your main websites.

When you set up a blog with Blogger it will be created as a sub domain on the blogspot.com domain. (For instance http://nextgen-links.blogspot.com )

That means you get all the link juice that comes from an authority site like blogger, which is a great thing for you.

To take advantage of this strategy for the search engines, you’d want to create a “mini blog” on Blogger that links back to your own site. This is a similar concept to adding articles to an article directory, though you have more control over the blog. The downside is that you don’t get the built-in article directory traffic.

The more entries you add, the more likely you are to be found by other Blogger.com users, and to rank highly in the search engines because your blog is coming from such a respected domain.

Since you’re linking back to your main website you should start to see your traffic and search engine rankings increase. Remember that every little bit helps, and that results build over time, so each of these strategies will work together to increase your overall traffic.

There are webmasters who think that they can boost their search engine rankings and get tons of article directory visitors to their site just by submitting an article or two. If only this were true. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case at all. You need to sustain an active level of submission to stay at the top of the search engines.

That doesn’t mean you need to spend your life writing articles. As long as you’re consistent in your efforts and don’t stop at just a few articles you’ll likely see great results. Still, those who submit many articles over a long period of time usually see higher levels of traffic.

You’ll find that the number of articles you need to submit really depends on the niche you’re in. There are some niches out there where just one or two articles a month will do. There are other niches where it’s ultra-competitive, so you’ll need to submit more articles, more often.

Here at NextGenlinks.com we suggest to try and submit 1-2 articles per week, every week. If that’s too much, then shoot for 2-4 articles per month, every month. The key is to be consistent.

We use ArticleMarketer.com to submit our articles and we have seen tremendous success, we highly recommend their services.
