Blog Op has recently posted a ton of great content.  3 Super posts in a single day, Chris is over there kicking it up a notch.   In case you missed it here is are the links to the posts.  All are a worthwhile read.

 Supplemental Results Hell - Are your pages appearing on Google’s main search results?  Or are they getting return as supplemental results that people won’t see unless they click “Similar Pages?”  See how you can find out if you are in supplemental results hell, and what you can do about it.

Are You Pinging The Right Services? - Chris correctly points out that some sites seem to get updated in Google reader and Bloglines much quicker than others.  Perhaps that is because some people aren’t pinging the right services?   He has a list of some different sites that you can ping.  Pick one or many to make sure your page updates.   I personally only use http://rpc.pingomatic.com/ and have never had any trouble.

Niche Blogging - One thing that new bloggers will get thrown at them time and again is that they need to find a niche and stick to it.  While this may be true in order to maximize the amount of money you make from your blog, it isn’t necessarily true in order to maximize the enjoyment from it.  The bottom line is, it is your blog, you should do what you want on it.  If you want to vary your theme a little bit, and that will keep your interest going, then go for it.
