The Blogger + Google Site Combo: A Free SEO Trick That Works in 2025,  Even If You’re Not a Techie

Google search results and SEO-related graphics displayed on a computer screen.


Ever felt like SEO is this mystical beast you have to tame with spells and sacrifice? Same.

Okay, let’s be real. You’ve probably googled (ironic, right?) “how to rank a blog for free” more times than you’ve opened your email this week. Maybe you’ve heard whispers in forums or half-baked YouTube advice: "Start a Blogger site and link it to your Google Site." And honestly? It sounded weird. Like 2009 weird.

But here’s the kicker: it actually works. Still. In 2025. And no, you don’t need a degree in data science or an SEO plugin that costs more than your Wi-Fi bill.

Let’s Back Up,  Why Should You Care?

You’re not competing with massive brands.

You’re just trying to:

  • Get your content seen.

  • Maybe grow your email list.

  • (Hopefully) sell something.

But Google? It’s not your friend, yet. It doesn’t trust you. You’re the new kid at the party, awkwardly holding your plate of mini sausage rolls, hoping someone says, "Hey, cool funnel."

And that’s where this sneaky little combo comes in.

🤝 Blogger + Google Site = Trust Boost

It’s almost like you’re using Google’s own playground to impress its search engine.

So, when these two link to each other (and back to your other stuff), something curious happens: Google tends to pay more attention. Not in a fireworks-and-fanfare kind of way, but enough that your pages start to show up.

Anecdote time:

When I first stitched together my Blogger and Google Site, it felt silly. Like, "Is this really going to do anything?" But within a week, my Google Site homepage started ranking for my name and two long-tail keywords I had no right ranking for. Zero backlinks. Just internal linking and proper titles.

Coincidence? Maybe. But let’s keep going.

Here’s How to Do It

  1. Make Your Blogger Look Legit

    • Write 3–5 solid blog posts. Real content. No AI gibberish or keyword stuffing.

    • Use headings. Add images. Maybe even embed a video if you’re feeling wild.

  2. Link to Your Google Site in Each Post

    • Not just the homepage. Link to subpages, your About page, resources… make it natural.

  3. On Your Google Site

    • Add a blog tab (or link to your Blogger).

    • On the homepage, say something like, “Check out my latest blog posts” and drop a hyperlink.

  4. Name Everything Intentionally

    • URLs matter. Page titles matter. Don’t name your blog post "random-stuff-3."

  5. Let It Marinate

    • Seriously. Google doesn’t rush. But this combo gets indexed quicker than most free sites.

🧠 Extra Sprinkles (Optional but Cool)

  • Submit both sites to Google Search Console (I know, I know, it’s a pain the first time).

  • Use consistent branding across both.

  • Add a favicon. Makes you look 10x more pro, for no reason.

What This Isn’t:

  • A hack to get page one overnight.

  • A backlink scheme.

  • A way to outrank Forbes.

What This Is:

  • A free, Google-friendly foundation for your digital footprint.

  • A confidence boost that SEO isn’t just for techies.

  • A surprisingly effective launchpad for your lead magnets, affiliate offers, or email list.

And honestly?

Sometimes all you need is a little momentum, even if it comes from something as unsexy as Blogger.

So, Should You Try It?

Well, here’s the thing: if you’re already doing the work, writing, creating, building funnels, why not make it easier for Google to find you?

It won’t fix everything. But it might just be the nudge your site needs.

And in this weird, oversaturated, beautiful mess of a digital world, sometimes, that nudge is enough.

My Blogger and Google site combo is still a work in progress, but you can see them here if you want to.

Is Your Traffic Actually Sabotaging You? Read This Before Sending Another Click

I used to think traffic was the problem. Or the lack of it, rather. “If I could just get more eyeballs on my link,” I’d whisper to myself like some sort of digital incantation while watching my email open rate crawl at 8.3%. That was a few years ago. I’ve since learned something odd, not all traffic is good traffic . In fact, some of it is trash. Worse, it’s a poison drip into your systems. 🚨 More Traffic ≠ More Sales People online talk about “driving traffic” like it’s some mystical rite of passage. But no one tells you what kind of traffic you’re driving, or where it’s heading. You wouldn’t pump diesel into a Ferrari, right? That’s what a lot of affiliates are doing. Bleeding money. Burning leads. Getting ghosted by their own lists. I did. I once paid for a traffic package that promised "real human visitors." Spoiler: they were real human disinterested strangers who bounced faster than a ping pong ball on pavement. I felt like I'd just paid for ghosts. Let’s unpack it...
