How Can Web Hosting Affect SEO?

All of us know very well that the real traffic of website can be gained through SEO. Moreover, Recently google started to count the speed of website for its search engine algorithm. Whenever, someone wants to play some tricks, you should keep in mind that the change webhosting company should not affect your SEO ranking otherwise your all hard work will get a zero value.
 
It has probably taken you some time to achieve your rankings, so you'll want to make sure that you don't have to start from the beginning simply because you have a new web host.  Luckily, you can change web hosting providers without any SEO impact by following a few simple steps:
 
Keep Your Domain Name

If you registered a domain name for your website, you should be able to move it to your new website by using the DNS provided by your new provider.  This is an essential part of changing web hosts -- without your domain name, you'll be forced to wait for your new site to be read and indexed by the search engines. Also remember that your domain name is your online identity -- which can be even more difficult to recreate.
 
Don't alter URL structures

Think about your website as a whole -- it's not just your home page that the engines index, it's every page of your website (and its corresponding URL).By keeping you URL structure the same when you move your site to a new web hosting company, you'll be able to retain your rankings and the valuable inbound links that affect the search algorithm.
 
Pick a reliable provider

You must do your research before choosing a reliable web hosting company. Look for online reviews of your candidates and focus on those that offer an uptime quote of 99.99%. Most of the hosting companies are resellers of other companies and in case of any problem their own account can be suspended. So, try to contact a webhosting company that owns their own servers.

Continuous Work

And at the end of story, I want to say this that a blog or a website can only be succeeded only if the owner posts frequently and updates the website continuously.

January 2011 Google Page Rank Update

Finally, Google has rolled out a Page Rank update after nine months. Before this, most of us were thinking that Page Rank technology has stopped to work but this PR update has confirmed that still PR is important in the eyes of Google. I am looking many new threads on different forums such like DP, sitepoint and v7n etc.. where many members have confirmed their PR update.

The last update had been on April 2010, so around nine months ago. That is quite a long time, especially if you consider at some periods in the past Google would roll a new PageRank update every three months or so.

Is PR important or not? This can be very well understand from the quoted text.

The take home message here is that PageRank is important, but it certainly is not worth obsessing over; there are many other factors involved in website ranking that should be given nearly equal consideration. In addition, simply building a good website is the best thing you can do to attract visitors, even without a great PageRank. PageRank, however, will likely follow – consider it a welcomed byproduct of your hard work.

The PR on most of my sites hasn’t changed a lot. Some of my niche sites gained 1 or 2 points, but that was it. My blog is still on PR 2 and may be it would gain some higher PR.

Is Buying Links a Good SEO Practice or Bad?

Link building is a major part of SEO and that can be done through many ways. Buying links is one of them and most of the webmasters do this for two purposes mostly. Some of them wants to build true backlinks to get higher ranking in SE and others buy links to up their Page Rank.

We know that the Buying links can gift a huge number of backlinks very quickly as compared to the organic method of backlink building but this can be very dangerous for your website that can be penalized by Search engines. Google has officially announced already that if someone buy backlinks to just increase Page Rank or to use these links for spamming, not only these links will not be count for SEO purpose but he will be penalized by the Google.

It does not means that the links, that someone buy, are used for increasing PR purpose. However you should aware that google has very powerful Link Detection strategies. For example If you are overcrowding your Blog Roll or you have gained a very large number of backlinks in no time, then Google can consider this as spamming or they can penalize your website due to violation of their TOS.

So far we have discussed the demerits of buying links but it does not means that we should not buy links. Links are still valid for the ranking but we should keep in mind that we make our links as Google wants. Google has defined very well for those who buy links can make their links valid by (Full Detail)

• Adding a rel=”nofollow” attribute to the <a> tag; or


• Redirecting the links to an intermediate page that is blocked from search engines with a robots.txt file

So, we conclude that we should be aware of the right method of buying backlinks and using them in an SEO friendly way otherwise you may get banned from Google.

When should I update my blog?

We know that the new bloggers are very much excited to do SEO for their blogs and most of them usually asks this question that  "How often should I update my blog?"

The truth is that some multi-author news blogs update several times per day, while other blogs are lucky to be updated once per month. This happens because a blogger have not too much time to write articles regularly or he can't post 2 or 3 articles per day.

So finally, when should we update our blogs so that we can meet the current needs of Search Engines just like Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc...
This depends on your blog's nature that what sort of blog you are developing.

1. If it is just a personal blog that is just for fun, then it really doesn't matter how often you post. You are posting mostly for your own benefit. However, if you want regular readers for your blog, then your post frequency is going to be very important.


2. If you want visitors to come to your blog every day, then you are going to want to post something on your blog at least once per day.


3. If you want visitors to check back every once in a while, then posting once or twice per week is probably enough.

But whatever you decide, consistency is the key. Don't update your blog 5 times in one day and then do nothing to it for two weeks. Readers hate that kind of thing. Readers like predictability, so be predictable.

Search engines like Google and Yahoo love continually updated blogs. So if you are looking for a good search engine ranking, you will want to pace yourself so that you can be sure to update your blog on a continual basis.

The key is to find a schedule that works for you and stick with it. If you can only post twice per week, then do that consistently and stick with it.

One thing that can free up time to update your blog more often is to automate other tasks. For example, some bloggers spend more time promoting their blogs on social bookmarking sites than they do blogging.
But remember, the number one key to blogging is hard work. If you work hard, and you stick with it and you regularly post quality content then you will be well on your way to blogging success.
