    You are absolutely right. by myself i recommend to own a domain and then start putting content on that. its more beneficial than other blgspots etc. i am a freelance writer. though i have developed a subdomain site. but you will see the difference.

    For blogger, fastest way to get organic traffic is to write on what is trending currently. You can refer to google.com/trends/hottrends (USA) or google.com.sg/trends/hottrends (Singapore). Trending topic will give your site a chance to be found as long as it is the latest entry but it is not a permanent traffic as readers are news follower. For huge permanent organic traffic, use google keyword tool and search for a topic that has massive amount of search every month. Write exactly the keyword that google keyword tool suggested to you with an original article. Then put in videos, images, social sharing icons and tell a friend plugin. If possible, get like 9 or 10 high PR backlinks (PR6 and above). You shall see your blog ranked highly by Google.

    I wrote an article on "How to commit suicide" and I got top 5 in Google. "How to commit suicide" has over 600,000 search every month. Go and search in google "How to commit suicide" and you can find my blog.

    Yup totally agree. Get a real host and domain.
    Also a few other things I picked up on. For SEO purposes your site should have good on-page seo before you start looking at your off-page seo. Using SEO Doctor Addon in Mozilla it gives your site a 57% rating and explains the reasons.
    Im not sure if you are able to sort this using blogspot but there are some great platforms out there such as wordpress and joomla that could really be worth looking into that have great seo advantages.
    And like Dillon says some great keyword targeted content will get you to the top.

    By the way Dillon great work for getting to that position.:cool:

    Link building, SEO, content marketing and comment marketing. All important and all need to be done strategically. For example, content marketing isn't just about the content. It's also about the promotion. Comment marketing isn't link building. It's being social and engaging in discussions about the topic you're trying to promote.

    There are different ways you can do that and it is very easy:
    1. PUT YOUR URL ON EVERYTHING: Maximize your advertising efforts by listing your Web site address on everything you do. Print the URL on your company’s letterhead, on your business cards, on the front of your building or the door to your office suite. Use the URL in your e-mail signature. List the URL on any print advertising that you do, including phone books, brochures, flyers, and direct mail pieces
    2.PODCASTING: Podcasts are audio files recorded in a radio talk show format. By posting podcasts on your Web site and other sites like Apple’s iTunes (www.itunes.com), customers can subscribe to your podcasts, download them as soon as they are available, and then listen to them on their computers or portable MP3 devices. The software to create podcasts is free; for more information visit http://www.podcastingnews.com/.
    3. RECIPROCAL BANNER ADS: Companies such as 123Banners (http://www.123banners.com/) help businesses by facilitating free banner advertisement swaps. By allowing a company to advertise on your site, they allow you to advertise on theirs. Be sure you retain control over what Web sites carry your ads, and what ads you post on your site.
    4. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE:There’s no advertising like personal recommendations made between friends and family. The best way to encourage this type of “viral marketing” is to provide excellent customer service
    5. EZINE: Write an e-mail newsletter, called an ezine, with articles about your industry, your products and services, and related news of interest to your customers. Check out sources such as goarticles.com and ezinearticles.com, which provide free articles you can use in your ezine. Advertise your ezine for free with directory sites such as www.ezine-dir.com.
    6. ADVERTISING ON A BUDJECT:
    Sometime a small investment can go a long way. One particularly effective and affordable option, for someone on a writer's budget, is to pay for specific keyword advertising though the Google Adwords ( http://www.google.com/adwords ) program, or using Yahoo search marketing ( http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com/ ).
    For as little as 10 cents you can ensure a visitor is sent directly to your home page. Furthermore for every person who clicks on the link usually 20-50+ people will have been exposed to the ad you paid for. These people will then have your book in their buried somewhere in their subconcious. Not bad for just 10 cents.
    Consider it from a financial angle. Let's say you make $5 for every book sold. An investment of $2.50 could send 250 people directly to your site, and expose your book to 10,000 people or more. If you are careful that you only target potential buyers through careful keyword selection, then that should easily turn into at least a sale or two.
    7. YOUR BLOG: Your blog will be much more effective if it is hosted as part of a community, where a lot of blog readers aggregate. For instance, my own blog, Heron-centric, only started to take off in popularity when I joined the Artima.com blogging community.

    Step 1: Buy a domain, if you want people to take you seriously then do it.

    After this it is basically depending on the SEO that you do on your site.
