  I’d be interested in gathering bloggers who also are members of Amazon Kindle bloggers or authors themselves. I could use reviews of my 18 books on Kindle, not promoting sales, but just to peek into the ‘blurbs’ and tell me how I’ve done so far.
  Recent three titles are on my blog on wordpress. But can you access? Thanks/Dee Tezelli, SEattle

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If you want to increase traffic then don’t listen to anyone who professes there are passive ways of doing that. Increasing traffic to a blog is hard work. If you want your blog to rank well in search engine results then that begins with creating and publishing original content posts (not pages) ie. unique content that cannot be found anywhere else on the internet.

  If you are using a WordPress.com theme good SEO is a given. However, going beyond the theme what the blogger has done within that structure is worth evaluating. Whether you write informative, persuasive or controversial content learning how search engines work, and how to apply basic SEO to you content will benefit your blog as it will increase traffic from targeted readers. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/10/21/two-seo-videos-for-bloggers/
