When building websites, there are two types of navigation you need to keep in mind. Navigation for humans and navigation for search engines. In order to keep your site both human and search engine friendly, all websites should have both an HTML sitemap as well as an XML sitemap.

If you are copying and re-spinning articles from other sites, or just want to respin your own articles for article submission, you might ask yourself: How much do you need to edit it in order to avoid duplicate content penalties?
Why is having an RSS feed important?

RSS feeds are very useful for frequently updated sites; namely blogs. People often have feed readers to watch multiple sites at once. They then only really click to visit a site if a new post or update shows up on the RSS feed. How they work is…Basically, you just have a file on your server. Anyone that visits your site can tell their “RSS Reader” to check it every time that they use their reader. So it’ll download and display the contents of that file in their reader–if their reader understands the contents.
Use Blogger to build backlinks

If you are serious about blogging, you probably shouldn’t use Blogger to operate your MAIN blog. Why? Because Wordpress is better - more options, more plug ins, more control. If you want to make your blog/site big… you need to be hosted on your own server and not use someone else’s free service. What I recommend is to use Blogger to drive some early links to your *HOSTED ON YOUR SERVER* Wordpress blog.
