Which Word I write frequently in this blog
My new blogger friend Ben Tremblay posted a Blogging Tutorial video on his blog last week and ask his readers to count how many times he pronounce the word “Right” in that video. He believes that he speaks this word “Right” a lot. He was right, in that 4:45 Minutes video he pronounced the word “right” nearly 29 times. Interesting na?
I don’t post any video tutorial on this blog; so I ask myself which words I write frequently while writing posts. I google my quarry to see if there is any tool which can give me an idea which word I use frequently. I find this cool tool at Wordle.
Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. Write in your blog URL and you will find the answer.
Look like in the picture below that I speak about “google” a lot. (Ghoos!!!)
My 4 years old son Aditya Sharma now has his own blog.
I have already introduced to you to my little cute son “The Shanker Bakshi Junior” a couple of month back. As a blogger what the best I can offer him is to create his own Blog. I wonder how he would feel after 10 or 14 years when he will see how his dad is updating maintaining his little blog over the years. He is probably the smallest blogger from I N D I A at present. Head over to this link if you wish to visit his blog, there is only couple of post over there.
I am passionate about my blogging and as I said earlier I want to blog till my last breath, may be one day my son Aditya will write a guest post on this blog and inform you that his dad is no more in this world, and try to win your heart too.
You know how to get to the top of the search engine! I should have posted about Photoshop, too.
I don’t have followers yet on my Twitter, I’m kind of lazy to invite followers as of now.
Interesting about that Worldle. I tried it immediately, and guess which words I’ve used a lot on my blog – Christmas, Phone, Advent, Hosting.
Yes its good to be with Google at No. 1 Spot, Only this article sending 300 to 400 Visitor per week from google Search Engine.
Oh you have Twitter account, place the widget on your blog, i will follow you.
Yes i have notice that you use these word a lot.
You have pasted the TITLE of the post in Google search engine and that’s the reason you have ranked on the top.. isn’t it ? that’s quite obvious..
If you ranking for some odd short Keywords then it would have been great..
Google analytical Treat it as “short Keyword” anyway am enjoying free traffic of 3000 to 400 Visitor from google for this “short Keyword”
You’re gonna make an ebook cover for me, bro? You know I need one….
Oh ya, get your boy learn a thing or two about blogging from big bro, Yan, will you? He could probably be making his way into the Guinness World Record being the youngest subscriber to thoushallblog.com.
Yan
I already promise to you that if he is gonna learn lessions about blogging then it must be from you – The master Pro- blogger.
Very clever with the Photoshop idea Shanker. Search Engine traffic is the best by far so if you can get another 10 of those going you’ll be doing very well …. good luck, i know you can do it!
