We all know content is king but does adding content to a blog versus a website give you any more benefit. It seems like blogs loaded with content are easier to gain higher search engine rankings than simple html websites. I have been able to get blogs onto the first page of google in days where it takes sites months.

Any thoughts on this from you SEO geeks.

I'm no SEO geek, but I do know that SEO spiders like the fact that blogs have a simple design - they're closer to plain text (how SEO spiders view the Net) - and are usually updated more frequently than HTML websites.

The other advantage with blogs is that each update is "pinged" to places like Technorati and other ping servers.

Therefore, each time you make a post, no less than 5 other sites on the web (sites that the SEO spiders love to visit) display your updated content.

Reading the great posts and wanted to comment. I am new at creating a poker website and enjoy playing poker in moderation with friends. I started route66poker.net and am not happy with it, like someone said in a post don't try to be all poker to everyone all the time or something like that. I am having problems finding a niche with the site and would love to hear some comments. I have a blog i've started pokerbonus.blogsome.com and also agree with another post about creating too many sites. I think I am going to buckle down on onee and make it really good before I go on. Any ideas would be grreatly appreciated on www.route66poker.net niche. I picked it mainly because of the poker hand so maybe talk about playing that hand and winning if thats even possible. I do have a fair amount of online poker rooms in the directory on the site, somewhere around 80. Once again thanks for the help and the great posts by everyone.

I could really use yours guys' expert opinion. I started working on a poker site recently before starting to read all the wonderful posts here. I thought I could make a run of the mill site and make some money and after reading the great posts realize its not the right way to do it. I enjoy playing poker as a hobby and must say I am not the most experienced at it and want to create a site that is unique and not a copy of someone elses hard work. I really could use your opinions, thoughts, etc on something that might be worthy to work on. I am pretty resourceful. The current site is www.route66poker.net and I was thinking of having tournament information and a tag line like "Route 66 Poker: Your road to poker tournament success." But it seems there are already lots of sites out there with tournament, bonus information and the such and after seeing an excellent job that ajpoker has done i dont want to compete. How popular is the carribean poker? Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I think a great way to begin writing poker content is to pick a topic that people are talking about in the poker forums and put your opinion and twist on it.

Take Care,
