Indeed, the return of the 'how to' blog posts! I'm writing this post as per the request of a friend using blogger. Thought it might come in useful for others too. Note that I'll be going real slow on details so nobody gets lost along the way. So, let's jump right on topic!
Step 1: Go to your blog home page: https://www.blogger.com/home
Step 2: Click on your blog name in the blog list(if you have more than one)
Step 3: You are now on your blog dashboard. You'll find the menu on the left with "Overview, posts, pages, etc.." options. Go to "Template" in the list.
Step 4: Here, you should find two buttons. One of them is "Edit HTML". That's your guy. Click him!
Now, it is strongly advised to keep a backup copy of all the codes which will be displayed in the window that pops up. Just copy-paste those codes in a text file somewhere and save it.
So, that's it. If you have any other queries in those regards, let me know.

Enough of random blog posts!
Weird.. to have me have a go at randomness.. So recently, I have come across SEO blogs which talked about the importance of content in a blog post. We hear everywhere how Quality is important: Quality over Quantity. I do agree with that... 100% even. OK, lets say 80%.
Quantity is just as important for search engine to get material to rank you with, as they are to users to quench their thirst for more and more info. I'd take the following examples from the friend's blog I am currently working on.
I'll start by the worst example Ever... this forlorn post has the least views on the blog although it is the latest one published there. Why? It has no weight. A crawler would not have enough data to rank this page properly. For the human eye, it is read through in one glance. Yes, one might argue (we all know who that "one" might be) that this is food for thought, and of course, I agree with that. But this is not enough for a blog post. It is not enough to catch the reader's attention, and there is not even room for a "read further..." there (note that this is not a MUST). Maybe if the dear author expressed her views more explicitly this would have been different.
Through my several blog digs (yes, I dig blogs), I have found that the optimum number of words for a blog to catch a user's and a user agent's (crawlers) attention is 700 words.

Blogger tips for better visibility on Search Engines
To begin with, let me clear things out.. I am a beginner SEO, freshly shoved into that world. I'm currently still learning and positive.. AND negative feedback are most welcome.
So here goes, the first assignment I undertook. There is this bitchy buddy of mine (love her anyway) who is pretty good at blogging and actually takes pleasure in doing so. So, I offered to make her opinion reach out to more people by applying my expertise *cough* on it.
http://theexperimentoflife.blogspot.com/
Right now, it still is a budding project but, if we add some sweat to it, it sure will bloom. And of course, there is also the fact that we're going to make money from it once we obtain a generous amount of regular visitors.
The steps I have undertaken to make this blog the popular guy/girl in the yard are as follows:
