Twitter Addictive.
Mr Stone was one of the four men who created Twitter in 2006 and has remained creative director, helping it become one of the most influential social networks in the world.”

Keywords in the context of Blogging, refers to the set of words that indicate the subject dealt with in the Blog.
Keywords follow a logical sequence in the structure of the blog.
If one were to write on Cancer of the Lungs , the natural sequence will be about what cancer is,general symptoms,causes if any, various types of cancer,Lung Cancer and so on.
Here you will find a logical sequence and the Searches follow a uniform pattern based on Reasoning.
So key words must relate to the subject on hand that flows automatically as you write along.
There must be no artificial loading of keywords as suggested by some SEO sites as the Search Engines are programmed to detect such artificiality.
There are two aspects in Keywords in respect of websites.
One is the writing aspect and another is the technical aspect of the website in relation to structure of the blog in the web site.
The later one will take care of it if your subject is naturally dealt with and not every one of us can control the technical aspect of the web site as all of us are not technical people.
The General principle is to write to inform and to share but never with the sole intention of increasing traffic.
Quality key words are those which have strong relevance and as such will automatically bring in traffic.
Though I am not a blogger who has very high traffic,I found that natural writings brings in quality readers who are really interested and urge you to write.
‘Keywords are the words that are used to reveal the internal structure of an author’s reasoning. While they are used primarily for rhetoric, they are also used in a strictly grammatical sense for structural composition, reasoning, and comprehension. Indeed, they are an essential part of any language.
There are many different types of keyword categories including: Conclusion, Continuation, Contrast, Emphasis, Evidence, Illustration and Sequence. Each category serves its own function, as do the keywords inside of a given category.’
As one keeps on Blogging,one would like to know as to how his blog is read,number of people per Day/Month;how many pages are viewed,how much time the reader spends on the site ,what the bounce rate is and a host of other details like keywords .
There are number of sites providing this information free of cost.
I have found Alexa.com the easiest to understand without too many IT jargon,simple yet detailed.
You visit the site ,enter you site url in Search and you get information on Traffic Rank(Global and Country specific, Reach,Page views,Page Views/user,Bounce Rate,Time on spent on site ans Search information relating to your site.
You can also get information on audience profile,age,income group,educational level and keywords details.
You would also get to know how your site looked in the past by way back machine.
You also get to know details on in bound links and outward links apart from the details of sites linking to your site.
You may become a member by creating an account and the site has affiliates programme as well.
Loading time is provided and you can correct mistakes,adjust your blog accordingly.
The only disadvantage I felt was that it does not provide historical data for anything ,1,00,00.
You get Click stream, Related Links and a host of other details relating to your site.
There are two kinds of Bloggers,who write for their pleasure and for the Audience.
I belong to the first category.
But as one goes along he finds that a section of the audience like what he writes and with the help of Alexa he can zero in on the group,key words,subjects and concentrate on those topics/tags.
More than others it was a revelation to me as I write what ever that interests me and I have found that there are people who have the same predicament,in my case as to what I really write consistently on and for others what they really are interested in reading.
I find in Alexa a good friend who does not preach.
