Establishing your blog as an authority in your market can be a difficult prospect. This is particularly so if you are just starting out. The more authority you have the more people like Google will admire you. Bear in mind that Google ranks the pages and posts in your blog and not in actual fact your all round blog.

This is big news. Because this signifies that every blog post or page you write should extend your blogs authority status. So make absolutely sure it does. How?

Listed below are a couple of tactics you can use immediately and add to into your blog training.

The first is one of the simplest ways to begin developing your authority. It is to build incoming links through commenting. If you utilize a plugin called CommentLuv on your blog you will be able to leave comments on associated niche blogs that also have CommentLuv installed.

How do you locate a blog with this plugin. Easy as pie. Go to Google search engine, and do a search using your keyword and exclusive operators.

If I was looking for blogs in the 'Panic Attacks' niche I would search for

panic attacks & "title="CommentLuv Enabled""

rather

"Enable CommentLuv" + panic attacks

You should be able to retrieve plenty of results for blogs in the panic attacks niche that have CommentLuv installed. Ideally you would make at a minimum 10 comments per blog post or page you write. If you make this a habit you will before long start to establish your links and, hence, your authority status.

The second cute trick that you could make use of in your blog training and that will also conserve you hours and hours of blog promotion effort is automating your social network notifications. Social networks allow you an option to broadcast your posts to the entire world. Submitting your notifications one by one is not actually feasible in the long term. Try out this and I assure you that sooner rather than later you will give up.

Anyway, right here are your step-by-step guidelines:

1. Get a complimentary account at http://ping.fm
2. Add Social Networks utilizing Options provided (this is the time absorbing bit)
3. Make account on those networks that you are not a member of yet, and attach them to the social network list for Posting
4. Install a new plugin PingPressFM using "Add New" option and activate it
5. Get API Key from ping.fm and append it to the Options of your plugin using Settings -> PingPressFM
6. Click on "Triggers" and insert check for "Trigger Active" for each posting trigger you want to use.
7. Click "Update Options"

Bingo! That's all there is to it. Every moment you post or build a page on your blog the plugin will give out a notification to ping.fm using the triggers you have enabled on your blog which, in turn, will make automated posts to each social network you have added to your list.

This automated system operates a treat and, now set up, will grow your reputation without thinking about it.

Every blogger should investigate ways to automate the critical functions of a blog without compromising on the quality of the actual posts. Using these simple tactics into your blog education will bring rewards in the long run and, best of all will allow you to focus on your content.
