A couple days ago I had an interesting chat discussion through the chat widget on my site, with a fellow blogger friend named Phase. We discussed Phase’s new blogging site, The Phase Files, as well as many aspects of blogging such as networking, site design, writing under a pen name, widgets, Google Analytics, SEO tools, blog carnivals, and commenting. It was a good conversation and covered many topics that every blogger should be aware of. If you’re a blogger, you’ll find some interesting tips and tidbits. Enjoy!

8:11:55 PM  plugoo_buddy: [My Plugoo] [Phase] Hey man

8:12:09 PM  Cold Philter: Hey Phaser.

8:12:11 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I just got your post — I’m flattered and glad u enjoyed it

8:12:20 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] how did u find me

8:12:55 PM  Cold Philter: Through BlogCatalog.  I realized that if I need to start meeting other bloggers if I want anyone to check out my site.

8:13:22 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’m glad u did man

8:14:01 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, that’s a big piece of the blog equation I was missing.  The whole point of blogs is that you create a discussion…and I wasn’t.

8:14:04 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I have been blogging for about 3 months now and it’s going really well ever since i started networking

8:14:24 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] yea totally man

8:14:33 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i like ur site a lot it’s fucking sick

8:14:38 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i just RSS’d u

8:14:40 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, networking is awesome, it’s really good to get feedback from other bloggers.

8:14:48 PM  plugoo_buddy: [INFO] Visitor [Phase] has left the conversation.

8:15:28 PM  plugoo_buddy: [My Plugoo] [PHase] sorry i put u in my google reader

8:15:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [INFO] Visitor [PHase] has left the conversation.

8:16:40 PM  Cold Philter: No worries.  Awesome brother!  I’m glad you like the site.  It took a bit of work to get it the way I wanted it.

8:17:12 PM  plugoo_buddy: [My Plugoo] [Phase] I need to add a blogroll,  a newsletter and a few other widgets and i’m done. Did u design this page by urself?

8:18:30 PM  Cold Philter: I didn’t design the template, but I did design the graphics.  You can check how the template originally looked by going to www.sizlopedia.com/tigopedia/

8:18:39 PM  Cold Philter: The link is in my site’s footer.

8:20:12 PM  Cold Philter: It’s a pretty decent template, very customizable, and had most of the layout features I was looking for.

8:20:27 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] dude u r amazing

8:20:55 PM  Cold Philter: I better be…ha ha…I’m a web designer….

8:21:00 PM  Cold Philter: Well…not officially.

8:21:03 PM  Cold Philter: hehe

8:21:07 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] omg

8:21:17 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’ve been meaning to find one for a very long time

8:21:29 PM  Cold Philter: Yo, if you need any help, let me know.

8:21:37 PM  Cold Philter: Is your blog Wordpress?

8:21:39 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i do!!!

8:21:42 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] no squarespace

8:22:01 PM  Cold Philter: Hmmm…not too familiar with that software…how do you like it?

8:22:06 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I need to add a blogroll, a newsletter for people to subscribe for my news updates

8:22:09 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] it’s Hosted

8:22:19 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] very easy to use but i’m useless at tech web design

8:23:15 PM  Cold Philter: Ah, I gotcha.  Newsletter is good, get subscribers in addition to RSS

8:23:26 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i have a huge facebook group

8:23:28 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] myspace

8:23:37 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’m on blog catalog and 1 other blog network

8:23:44 PM  Cold Philter: Oh yeah?  That’s cool.

8:23:45 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] but I need both those

8:24:26 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, I don’t have a blogroll either, another reason why I’m meeting some other bloggers.

8:24:36 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] you have a good eye if u were to change anything about my site what would it be

8:24:59 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I have a shit ton of fans/readers on facebook so u hit up the right guy

8:25:12 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i have a vastly growing subscriber base

8:25:22 PM  Cold Philter: That’s awesome….good job!

8:25:28 PM  Cold Philter: As far as your site….

8:25:30 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] so i’ll help u out

8:25:30 PM  Cold Philter: Let’s see.

8:25:41 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’ll put u in my blogroll once i have one lol

8:25:48 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] right now i just have a links section

8:26:03 PM  Cold Philter: I would make the banner a little smaller, add  a cool background graphic maybe.

8:26:25 PM  Cold Philter: Nothing too showy though….something faded.

8:27:15 PM  Cold Philter: I like the pictures you included in those links of your friends.

8:27:35 PM  Cold Philter: Putting funny/cool pictures relevant to your post would be good.

8:27:39 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] my web-design friend thought of adding a backgroudn scheme too

8:28:11 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, something simple, doesn’t need to be complicated.

8:28:21 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] what would u do

8:29:27 PM  Cold Philter: Hmmm…I would put in some graphic relevant to what your site’s about…your stories with women. 

8:29:41 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] it cant be a woman in the background theme tho

8:29:42 PM  Cold Philter: Because it’s The Phase Files…maybe a faded photograph of files…

8:29:49 PM  Cold Philter: No…no woman…

8:29:49 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] that’s waht i was thinking of!!!!

8:30:08 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] it shouldnt’ be a woman

8:30:10 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i like the folder idea

8:30:11 PM  Cold Philter: I bet you could find a nice royalty free photo you could use.

8:30:24 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] how do i get a blogroll

8:30:25 PM  Cold Philter: Change the color on it…

8:30:54 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] color on what

8:30:58 PM  Cold Philter: Well, wordpress has a blogroll widget.

8:31:16 PM  Cold Philter: The color of the files so it matches your site and blends well.

8:31:31 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] yea my web designer mentioned that

8:32:32 PM  Cold Philter: Not sure what you would do for a blogroll on your site.  Just add the links in the sidebar as a panel probably.

8:32:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] yea but by and large u like the site

8:34:06 PM  Cold Philter: Yes, I think you write good content, but the site design needs something.

8:34:35 PM  Cold Philter: It wouldn’t take much.

8:34:47 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’m all ears

8:34:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i want the best relationship themed blog

8:35:48 PM  Cold Philter: Well, like I said, the background, maybe adjust the colors some, maybe change the font style…basic things really.

8:37:02 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] back

8:37:13 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] you want to get in there

8:37:15 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] lol

8:37:32 PM  Cold Philter: Haha.

8:38:08 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I wish I could introduce myself but I cant — it would ruin the mystery

8:38:13 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I’m 23

8:38:17 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] live in Boston

8:38:43 PM  Cold Philter: haha…it’s all good. 

8:38:53 PM  Cold Philter: Don’t tell anyone.

8:39:00 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] my friends know

8:39:06 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] and friends of friends but that’s it

8:39:31 PM  Cold Philter: Good.  Keep your anonymity.  Safer anyway.  That way you have the freedom to say whatever you like.

8:39:53 PM  Cold Philter: Anyone searches my name in Google, they immediately know everything I’ve written.

8:39:56 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i wont get too degrading

8:39:58 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] lol

8:40:52 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] did u RSS my site

8:41:15 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, not degrading, but maybe you don’t want an employer finding your site for example.

8:41:29 PM  Cold Philter: I RSS’d through Firefox.

8:42:40 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] yea that’s true

8:43:16 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] let me ask u something, what’s the fastest way to get a site to grow exponentionally

8:43:33 PM  Cold Philter: Haha….if I knew that I’d be doing it!

8:43:58 PM  Cold Philter: I think it’s a combination of a few factors working together.

8:44:24 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i have a great team doing word of mouth and i’m networking very well

8:44:31 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] u picked the right guy

8:44:36 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] i’m telling u

8:45:32 PM  Cold Philter: Great content, Great site design, networking, giving the visitors something they want.

8:45:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [Phase] I got almost all of that

8:46:03 PM  Cold Philter: You checked out my contact page right?

8:46:20 PM  plugoo_buddy: [INFO] Visitor [Phase] has left the conversation.

8:46:32 PM  plugoo_buddy: [My Plugoo] [phase] i’m there now

8:46:44 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] why

8:47:21 PM  Cold Philter: I saw on my stats that someone viewed it.  The form isn’t working since I upgraded my Wordpress.

8:47:30 PM  Cold Philter: I need to get another plugin for it.

8:47:43 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] where do u get plugins

8:48:07 PM  Cold Philter: Well, the plugins I need are made specifically for wordpress.

8:48:21 PM  Cold Philter: But you can get widgets that work on most sites regardless.

9:02:13 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] what about "pussy…. where were you?"

9:02:20 PM  Cold Philter: haha

9:02:26 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] lol

9:02:52 PM  Cold Philter: The key is to find out the words people search for and include those in your writings.

9:02:53 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] shit it didn’t show up

9:03:15 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] phase is a big one

9:03:39 PM  Cold Philter: http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/index.php

9:03:48 PM  Cold Philter: This tool is really useful.

9:03:59 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] wow!

9:04:03 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] let me ask u something

9:04:13 PM  Cold Philter: Type in a word, and it gives you all the most popular searches that use that word.

9:04:22 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] hahaha

9:04:27 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] let me ask

9:04:31 PM  Cold Philter: Ok?

9:05:03 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i thought the most important thing that needs to optimize SEO was ur brand name aka The Phase Files or Phase Files

9:05:22 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i thought the higher up they show on google, the better indicator of how well the site is accomplising SEO

9:05:42 PM  Cold Philter: Yeah, that’s part of it….but there’s a lot factoring into it.

9:05:57 PM  Cold Philter: You want to get those most people possible viewing your site right?

9:06:05 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] what words would u recommend i start using then more often

9:06:07 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] yea!

9:06:58 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] dude ur like a blogging expert

9:07:08 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] god bless

9:07:28 PM  Cold Philter: I don’t know….if your next article is about a certain topic….search for that word in the SEO tool, and find out what keywords people search for the most, and incorporate those into what you write.

9:07:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] my next story on monday

9:08:05 PM  Cold Philter: What’s it about?

9:08:08 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] is about how i get the worst head ever from my crush in 5th grade

9:08:13 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] like 2 years ago

9:08:23 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i’m going to make fun of her and call her out on how awful it was

9:08:32 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i timed it 23:50 that’s bad

9:08:43 PM  Cold Philter: Ha ha….well ok.

9:09:05 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] yea she was attrocious

9:09:21 PM  Cold Philter: Search "head" the SEO tool.

9:09:37 PM  Cold Philter: "how to give head"  - 3682 searches

9:09:52 PM  Cold Philter: "girls giving head" - 2856 searches

9:10:06 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] so let me ask u this

9:10:13 PM  Cold Philter: "women giving head" - 1228 searches

9:10:24 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] if i incorporate DIRECT words  into the langauge of my story for instance

9:10:27 PM  Cold Philter: You’ll be competing with a lot of porn, but that’s what people are searching for.

9:10:30 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] of the "Women giving head"

9:10:34 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] I would generate higher SEO

9:11:14 PM  Cold Philter: Yes, because when a person searches for an exact phrase that’s in your site, your article will more likely show up in a search.

9:11:25 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] dude ur a lifesavor!

9:11:31 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] thats waht SEO is!!!

9:11:49 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i never knew of a resource to use to optimize it!!! I will make my stories flow based around the language to optimize SEO from that site u gave me

9:11:56 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] hell ya! well done

9:11:57 PM  Cold Philter: All seo is, is making your site easy for people to find in search engines.

9:12:13 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] dude how the fuck do u know all this

9:12:19 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] what are the other secrets

9:12:24 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] lol

9:12:35 PM  Cold Philter: Blog Carnivals.

9:12:40 PM  Cold Philter: Those are good too.

9:12:41 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] what’s taht

9:12:58 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] ur like my coach haha

9:13:28 PM  Cold Philter: A blog carnival you submit your blog entries to a web site, and then they post a link to your site on their blog in a series with other people’s blogs.

9:13:43 PM  Cold Philter: It’s important to get linked by other web sites.

9:14:15 PM  Cold Philter: The more site’s that link to your site, the higher your rank in search engines, and the easier people will find your site.

9:14:19 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] HOW DO I FIND ONE

9:14:27 PM  Cold Philter: www.blogcarnival.com

9:15:02 PM  Cold Philter: Every time I write an article I submit the link to at least 5 upcoming blog carnivals.

9:15:02 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] so

9:15:14 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] how do i know whom to submit it to and where and what’s it for

9:15:30 PM  Cold Philter: That’s the sucky part.

9:15:40 PM  Cold Philter: You have to look through the list.

9:15:57 PM  Cold Philter: And read what they are about, and if they want articles that deal with what you’re talking about.

9:15:57 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i had no idea this shit was so complex

9:16:10 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] thats what so hard about mine

9:16:16 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] I have the most unique blog on the net

9:16:22 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] u know

9:16:46 PM  Cold Philter: Well….if could be put into the "relationship advice" I think.

9:16:52 PM  Cold Philter: That would be a category for it.

9:17:02 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] oh really

9:17:23 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] dude u’ve taught me so much

9:17:34 PM  Cold Philter: I think so….because even though you aren’t giving out advice directly, you are sharing your stories that deal with dating and relationships.

9:17:42 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] you seriously just did me a lot of help

9:18:01 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] you’re automatically given the #1 spot on my blogroll

9:19:50 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] my goal is to publish a book

9:20:20 PM  plugoo_buddy: [phase] i held off on putting in adsense to generate enough traffic to justify higher PPC
