Sometimes, you may want a particular post to be at the top of your homepage, say, for a specified period of time, especially if you are using the post to promote a product or service. And you want it to be seen first whenever a visitor visits your site.
Although Blogger arranges posts order according to their date & time, you can still change your post time to keep it at the top as long as you wish.
To do this, follow the steps below:
When writing the post,just click the Post Options link at the bottom of the post editor and change the date of the post to some future date . The format of the date is Month/Day/Year like when I'm writing this post, the date is 7/15/09, so I can change 09 to some future year.
If you've already written and published a post then you can go to Edit Posts and then find that post. Once you found it, click Edit link and post will again open in the Post Editor where you can change it's date.
when the future date you specified reaches, you can change and fast-forward it again.
Traffic generation is a major part of the blogging business. If you do not get people to visit your blog or site nobody would ever know it exists. And by so doing, you are doing yourself great disservice. It is simple: no traffic, no sales or clicks and no money in your pocket or bank account.
One of the easiest and quickest ways to get people to flood your site or blog on a daily basis is through search engines. You know what a search engine is, don't you?
If your blog or site is listed in major search engines, whenever someone is searching for something similar to the content of your site or blog, chances are that they will be directed to your domain.
So, search engine submission is a really essential task that every webmaster or blogger should do.
You can submit your site to 3 major search engines through the following links.
1- Submit your blog to Google.
http://www.google.com/addurl.html
2- Submit your blog to Yahoo.
http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit
3- Submit your blog to Microsoft Bing.

Note: Many web search engines like Alta Vista and Lycos use other search engines like Yahoo and Google to power their search, so don't worry about submitting site to them.
The Basics
When you're writing a post, you'll have a space at the bottom of the form marked "Labels for this post." Enter whatever labels you like, separating them with commas. You can also click the "show all" link to display a list
of labels you've used previously. Then just click on the labels to add them.
When you publish your post, the labels will be listed with it. Clicking any of the labels will take you to a page containing only posts with that label.
