    That’s terrible, I’d never come across MyBlogGuest. Thanks for the heads up, everything else is pretty much the same things I do each day!

    One other I do daily is check for spam posts, probably 6 or 7 times a day!

    very important if you run a forum or open comment blog.

    I’ve just printed this out and stuck it to my noticeboard. Some really helpful tips which Online Marketers will undoubtedly forget to do each day!

    I’d also recommend identifying 1 potential client per day – at the end of the week, approach the top 3.

    I would maybe add “Skim Thru Blogs and Information Hubs That You Follow” just to see if there is any new and important news in your industry. Other than that, this a great list.

  12. Henry Louis says:

    A few on page changes can be tweaked in order to monitor the search engine’s reactions to the changes. Keep in mind that the tweaks should not be impacting the performance of the website.

    When it comes to doing internet marketing I will specifically look for link building of my website as it will fetch me with decent number of traffic and juice from Google Search. which seems to be one of the best possible way to make most out of it.

  14. Y8 says:

    Is sitemap still reliable in seo or can it be committed without any worry?

  16. Lana Holmes says:

    I prefer to do all these things after the “real” work, but thank you for the list!

    I am quite sure that if most bloggers did these things on a daily basis then their site would rank well. Some of the bloggers today do not have enough time to do these things and this is to the detriment of their blogs which end up getting less traffic and lower rankings.
