New Look and Feel - SEO Web Design

I’ve finally completed the new web design and layout for this blog. Don’t you think it looks better than the previous design? The last time I fiddled with Blogger template was at least 6 months ago and it took me nearly a week to customise a design template. This time round I got the new web design which is SEO friendly in less than 2 days.

You’ll see that I’ve rounded the corners - no more sharp corner and a step closer to Web 2.0 design!

These are some of the changes:

• Main column on the right and sidebar on the left
• Monthly archive on main page
• Comment on individual post page
• Added rel=”nofollow” to some of the external links

However, the most important factor in this design is to make the the main page, the individual post pages and the archive pages as SEO friendly as possible. I can probably showcase this design as an example of SEO Web Design.

In fact, this new design and layout is to prepare for a port of this blog to Wordpress. So far, I have published more than 120 posts. It can be painfully slow to re-publish the entire blogsite when I update the blogger template.

It will be another 2 weeks before I have the time to start playing with Wordpress and customise the template. I can see that it will take several sleepless nights to achieve the effect and result I desire!
