No need to worry any further cause the Google has added a new feature called ‘Wonder Wheel’, which can be used as an excellent Keyword Suggestions Tool. Google’s Wonder Wheel is easy to use and effective in giving accurate keyword suggestions.

To use this tool, first go to the Google Search Engine and search for any term, lets take ‘Keywords’, on the result page, click a link- ‘Show Options’ present on the upper left hand side. Now a long list of activities, which can be performed to get the desired search results is listed on the left. Move down the list and click on ‘Wonder Wheel’. This will generate a wheel like structure, with searched term in the centre and keyword suggestions at the ends of the branches.

For instance, you want to have to know the Most Searched Keywords related to the word ‘seo’, then just search the term in Google’s Search Engine and follow the procedure above. You will see a result like the one given below.

Note: This feature too, like many other services of Google is country specific and experimental, therefore this feature is available in Google.com search engine and not in Google.co.in. Thus, search the terms in Google.com only.

Free Methods

Bookmarking Sites
There are numerous bookmarking sites floating online. But, only a handful of them are able to provide good links to the submitted material. To achieve instant response and better backlinks submit each and every article you post, to the social bookmarking sites. Do not get confused with the huge number of bookmarking sites available; just stick to the best bookmarkers like the Digg, StumbleUpon and Technorati. They are enough to serve your purpose.

Commenting On Authority Sites
There are sites which are pretty old and their anti-spamming laws are not so strict and thus, allow the users to submit their links along with their comments. www.onlywire.com are some such sites. only thing you have to do is make two different accounts and start commenting on the various new topics under discussion.

Free Blogs At Wordpress Or Blogger
Create a two or three free blogs on some big blogging site like the Wordress.com, Blogs.com or Blogger.com, to name a few. Then quickly generate a good content on these blogs, either by copy-pasting from some other site or just by writing it on your own. Do not get too much into writing original content on these blogs. Just put around 50 to 70 copied but interesting articles on each blog and then leave them as such, for a month or so.
Keep checking their google ranking regularly after they become a couple of months older. After a couple of months when they get a good a Google pagerank, link your independent blog with this Free blog.
You will see that the blogs which are build on these big sites get a good pagerank and come in search results more frequently than your individual blogs. Linking to these blogs will be a great help to your blog.

Yahoo groups
Posting your links at yahoo groups is also seen as a good way getting a boost in traffic and a fair backlink. But, posting comments and links on Yahoo groups is yet not seen as an effective method.

Paid Method

Buying Backlinks
I wont recommend this method to you, but then also many bloggers do this in order to get instant and fruitful results. Become a member of any Webmaster Forum, like the DigitalPoint.com, and then go through the categories at the panel, here you can begin your thread requesting for a backlink from an authority blog or site. On receiving some good offer, go for a blog which has a higher pagerank, preferably 3 or 4, a good alexa ranking and a regularly updated content.
If your budget is low than you can think of compromising on any of the above mentioned characteristic, but do not go for a low pagerank site or blog.

But, for a good pagerank  always try to build up a genuine and creative stuff on your blog. Originality is the only thing which can help you sustain in your niche for long.

Non-followers do not go away easily
As Twitter provides a ‘following’ limit of 2000 and one can extend this limit only when his ‘follower’ count reaches 2000+. And while adding friends in twitter often we start following the people who do not follow-back. These non-followers are useless and need to be removed, but ‘un-follow’ these non-followers become time consuming and tiring. Even though there are free services to remove these non-followers quickly but, there functioning is also very poor, they tend to delay the deleting process, which in turn becomes frustrating.
And friends if you are thinking of deleting the non-followers please sit down only when you have a whole day to spare on things like this.

Followers tend to disappoint
At times it becomes very frustrating and discouraging to learn that whatever time you spent searching a topic, going deep into it and then framing a nice piece of information, just to please the followers at Twitter, did not even get noticed by handful of the people following you. At this stage, one tends to think that all their efforts have gone in vain and twitter followers are not to be relied upon.

Generating a huge following at Twitter is not everyone’s cup of tea. It requires a lot of time and labor and if someone is patient enough to put in these things, there are great chances to own a Twitter account with Lacs of visitors.

1.Is my blog my hobby or a profession?

This is the most important question a budding blogger must ask himself before putting in his greatest efforts into his blog. The time you should give your blog depends on whether your blog is a career for you or its just a hobby? confused people most land up giving up their blogging, due to the continuous imbalance in the amount of work and time they put-in and the amount of success they fetch by their efforts. Less success is more than enough to force you give up your blogging.
So, to avoid such a shameful loss, one must be clear about the way he/she thinks about blogging. If it is a hobby then one should plan and give less time to blogging and work slowly. For the other who consider blogging as a business or a job, they should be giving their complete time and attention to their blog and should be ready to learn from their mistakes, cause until or unless you start learning you can not be the best in your niche.

2.Am i ready to help people? OR Am just here to make money?

Helping does not mean to personally spread out your support to your readers. It means that you should feel happy and eager to provide your readers with something which they can not fetch easily on Internet. Answering to the comment and queries by readers can also fetch you good name and success. Keeping a money minded personality seldom helps anyone, neither the readers nor the blogger, are happy at what they get. It is fact that ‘Your notes or writings reflect your thinking’.
So, try to avoid this blunder by shaping your mind to be helpful and serve your readers a good content. if at a step, you are able to please your readers, then you will realise that success lies on the next step only.

3.Am i a copycat or a genuine writer?

Being a copycat is the biggest mistake made by the budding bloggers,as they are unaware that a copied content does not only brings visitors, but it also brings a bad name and a lot of trouble (copy writes violation) to you and your blog. One must avoid copying as much as possible. Write four articles a week instead of copy-pasting 40 articles. Genuine content adds a reputation with your blog’s name and to yours as well. Genuine content helps fetch regular readers and a higher search engine ranking.

What is copying? Most of us often get confused with this question. Copying means that your are copying the entire content of some other person and are just making a slight changes in the format of writing, else everything is same.

How to avoid copying? You should start writing on your own, take the basic structure by reading few articles, add some extra points and do not see the source article while writing. this will help you be genuine and protect your identity while writing. but do remember to add some new and innovative ideas and illustrations to your work.
4.Do i know the copy-writes?

I was expecting this questions from most you. Copy-writes are the legal rules and regulations formulated by the government to protect the genuine writer from getting exploited due to copying of his original work. Different sites have different rules, so before starting your journey as a blogger you should know the general copy-write laws, so that you do not land up losing your blog due to this, cause a single complaint to the Google about your blog copying someone else’s content will be fatal to your blog as Google will blacklist your blog and after some time almost all the major search engines will also stop listing your blog. So be precocious!!!

5.Am I promoting my blog or trying any SEO for it?

Just posting articles on your blog and waiting for a good response, is like a dream for a new blog. For a good number of readers you will have to publish your blog for quite a good time. You can do so by telling your friends to visit your blog regularly of by sending them updates and asking them to spread it out to their friends also. You may also use social networking sites like Orkut, Facebook or any other social bookmarking site like Digg, Stumble Upon etc.

6.Am i regularly analyzing my blog’s performance?

After asking these questions if you think that you are into the blogging and you know your directions and the basic things to avoid, then you shall start promoting your knowledge and skills by analyzing your blog regularly, such as the unique visitor a particular article is getting, which are the weakest articles and why are they so?, how to include more variable and valuable stuff regularly to maintain the interest of the regular visitors and rank higher in your niche.
