Search Engines are certainly the best and free way to get more traffic to your blog. Here are some tips to increase chances of your blog being crawled by search engines
1) Make sure your blog’s title, subtitles and pages contain the keyword for blog.

2) Include your keywords in the hyperlinks while linking to your internal pages. For eg. you have a blog about Adsense then instead of a link like “click here to see that” you can use link like “view my article on Adsense tips“. See the link contains the keyword “Adsense”.

3) Search engines really don’t care about how many pages are linking back to you but what they care about is how many “quality backlinks” your page has. Its worthless if the site linking back to yours is not related to your theme.

4) While naming your pages too you could include your keywords. Instead of naming them like page1.htm name them like adsense-tips.htm.

5) Search engines love sites with good and lots of content. So make it contentful.

6) Also do make it easier for your blog to be crawled by search engines. Make sitemaps for your blogs. You can do it on Googe and XML-Sitemaps.

7) When your site has at least 15 pages submit your URL to Google, Yahoo and MSN. Don’t bother about other search engines because many of them are just the portals of these big ones.

That’s it now your blog should be good enough to show up on Search Engines.
