Looking For SEO

Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to write on this blog lately because I've been so busy with my other sites. Mainly, I've been migrating my DIY site from Blogger to Wordpress (not by myself - that would be a disaster!) and trying to figure out how to use all the cool, but very different formats, tools etc. Of course, this new blog now has a Google rating of 0, zero, zilch because it's considered a new site, so I have to work very hard in getting it seen out there by all you folk.

Search engine optimization is not something I consider myself very good at. I've been spending a lot of time online reading whatever I can get my hands on, trying to work out the puzzle of what works and what doesn't. I can't say I've found the answers yet. I may have found some interesting and revelatory information, but nothing that says exactly what I need to do in the way I can absorb it.

Writing is my forte. This is what I do well. I sometimes think I'm spending too much time doing something I have no real interest in (the SEO stuff). Yet, if I want to take my writing further and be someone online, there is no other alternative. I feel as though I'm in a catch 22 situation. My writing is suffering from all this rushing about trying to glean information. However, the alternative is to write like crazy and hope to get discovered for my brilliance :-)

What do I do? It's a real puzzle to which I've yet to find the answer. Thanks for bearing with me as I chase the invisible.
