A blogging tip!

[twn]

We all trade links with other blogs. When trading links often a simple link is added to the blog like:

<a href="http://www.mycoolblog.com">My Cool Blog</a>

Well that is cool and works fine. But most search engines like to know a bit more about a link so use the title tag to supply some more info about the link:

<a href="http://www.mycoolblog.com" title="Now this is one cool site">My Cool Blog</a>

It is preferable to put one sentence with 1 or 2 keywords you target in the title tag. It will do good for your search engine ranking.

But don't go abusing it like putting a keyword list in the title tag, cause that could harm your ranking.

That's it!

Thought this was pretty much standard practice but nice tip regardless.

For a experienced blog webmaster this indeed something you do automatic, but a lot of blogging newbies that just dipped into the html pool don't know about the title tag and their uses.

but nice tip regardless.

No problem
