    How do I get a new blog to rank high on search engines? It already has a few posts with quality content.

    If you have already at least 10 post in your blog you can now do link building, follow the basics in SEO and start promoting your blog.

    Placing the 'keyword' in the following will help you:

    •title of the post
    • title tag (if different from the title of the post)
    • heading tags (not just h1, either)
    • internal linking
    • links to the post's permanent link
    • outbound links
    • URL
    • alt tags

    I think all SEO tactics work for sites would work for blogs, too.
    Of course, fresh contents are essential key for a blog success. :)

    Just a reminder, manage your time and make sure that you won't compromise the quality content that you should constantly be providing just because you are busy promoting your site, doing seo stuffs.

    You should start link building, directory submission, article submission and social bookmarking submission to get good SERP.

    As content is always the king, add every day fresh and interesting writings so that people would want to read what's on your blog. Of course, do not forget about social bookmarks, link building, HIGH quality directories submission etc. In fact, are you writing for visitors of for Google? :)

    Naaah I dont agree. I`ve got 3-4 "blogs" with only 4-5-6 posts, and I began building links for them almost right away. Doesnt matter how many posts you`ve got as long as it all looks natural. I mean, you dont exactly wanna use Xrumer for a site with no content and stuff like that..
    Actually, I`ve been on the first page of Google with a medium competitive keyword with a website with absolutely no content at all, and only a few links..

    just keep on building inbound links slowly and steadily using social sites, book-marking sites, article sites, directories, blogging sites and commenting on other blogs. Ideally you should have several pages of your blog already built up before publishing. The more word count for each page the better. 400 or more word count per page is ideal. 1000 word count per page is excellent. Moreover, keep up making long posts with your main keywords and keyword density in mind. Do this on a regularly basis. Not more than 1 post a day and Not less than 1 post a month. Continue building backlinks and tweaking your site. These 3 things will slowly but surely lead you to the fist page of any search engine.

    It is very important for bloggers to learn how to optimize their keywords in order to rank and generate more traffic. Social media promotions is also effective in creating buzz about your blog. It's best to try all the channels possible to increase traffic. Another thing is to build traffic is to be unique, choosing the right niche is important as well and then writing a useful and helpful blog post every day and linking out to other blogs.Many people are afraid to lose "link juice" for linking out, but this actually boosts your ranking and gets you more traffic.

    As you have said, you have some quality posts in your blog, so the first step you should take is place the links of all of your post in all major socially bookmarking sites. Just wait for seven days and see the results in Google search. Thanks

    Did you perform a keyword research before you created your blog? Are you targetting the right keywords for your blog?

    Since it's a new blog, you have to perform link building to build quality back links for your site.

    Fresh - unique and niche content at regular time
    Social bookmark - directory at equally amount in quality sites
