Well-written. Thanks. I have been learning a lot about different CMS programs lately. I have also been experimenting with setting up an e-commerce site using WordPress. Have you ever done that? Any suggestions for me? It's pretty fun learning it. Visit my blog if you'd like to read more. Thanks again for this blog - it is really informative.

Blogs i think are the best thing in terms of “minimal work and maximum ROI” , CMS systems like Drupal, Joomlaa i find heavy on resources and too technical to manage. Blogs are light and make content publishing so much easier. Gives the power of writing and publishing to even those who are too scared to touch a website and worry about breaking stuff.

IABC seminar was great event, I regret i did not get a chance to learn more about Twitter and Lintbucket (never heard of this one before), but I see you have some workshop coming up (but is in Vancouver) . What’s driving me crazy is, I still do not know how typepad works, was going to shoot a support email or sales email to typepad guys to get more details. Unless you do not mind sharing some info on how Typepad has been working for you and if possible finer details of how it works ?

Signed up today for Twitter http://twitter.com/bloggybloggy , will try to locate you on there if you use Twitter and try understanding Lintbucket.

Another Seo tip for closing statement : “Get as many backlinks as you can from other sites that are similar in nature to what your site is about”. And do not fall for “alexa’s” site ranking if you are purchasing a site .

Hi, Sumeet! Sorry I didn’t get to meet you at the IABC seminar. Some great thoughts above on how blogs can support SEO. Having well-formed URLs is so important – I’m glad you pointed this out! I use Typepad and they made the change about a year ago from having the page names be as they are now rather than just /archive/page=93 – so much better!

Glad to see you’re spreading the word about good blogging practices!

Cheers .. Kate
