Blogs are very important in SEO because by using them we can serve fresh and unique content to the user and search engine both. Google love blog because most of the people who writes the blog use the fresh content for attractive users. There are many tips which can help people to optimize their blog.

1. Use an Attractive Design - A good look and feel blog can attract many users without any SEO.
2. Use RSS Feed – Make sure your blog has an RSS available. Many blogs don’t have RSS feed automatically available, so should add it.
3. Use Tag Clouds – Tag cloud are basically keywords from the various posts on your blog that are linked to a search result that include all articles related to the keywords. These can help people to go directly to the interested category.
4. Optimize your Title and Description- Customize you post Title and Description because your blog software automatically creates the Title for your post by pulling the text out of your post heading.
5. Navigation is the key – Make your website navigation very simple as you can which help user to browse the website very easily.
