Many people wish to have access to multiple Facebook accounts from their android just like they do for Google account. But we cannot add more than one Facebook account to synchronize and login to default android Facebook account like that of Gmail account. But hopefully, an android app has been developed that will allow you to add multiple Facebook accounts on your device. This app works similar to default android app and has been named as “Friend caster” which is available on Google play store. There is a lot of craze among the youngsters for the Facebook, as they remain united with their friends who are far away and close as well and still have lots of extra activities, apps, games and much more to do. They even create multiple accounts to create a prank with their allies. So everyone wants more than one account and at the same time wants the access from the same device for the multiple accounts.

How to Log Out of Facebook Messenger on Your Android Device

Do you have any idea about how to log out of Facebook Messenger on your Android device? Facebook users are not really happy ever since they are forced in to send and receive messages on Facebook through Messenger. We hope that by now you must have discovered that there is no way to log out from the app only if still you have downloaded, installed and logged in to the Messenger.
There is no doubt that Messenger is the only easiest way to stay connected with your Facebook friends but many users don’t want to remain active 24*7. Users might not see an option to log out as there on Facebook but if you think that you can’t log out from the app, then you are wrong buddies. There is a simple and easy way to logout from your Facebook Messenger when you are not using it.
The recent change about using the Messenger creates a huge upheaval among the Facebook users because the change seems to be worse as it does not support the option for logout. But today, I will show you up a roundabout way which will help you in logging out from Facebook Messenger easily.
If you want to log out, head towards your phone’s settings but first close the app if you are using and get rid from the recent apps list as well. Switch to Settings>>Application Manager or Apps>>Messenger>>Clear Data.
It’s all done guys! Though now it will not log in to your profile automatically but when you will go back to the app, it will just show you your profile name which means that you just need not to sign in but just click on messenger. Do you need to log out completely? If yes, then you have to log out from the Facebook app because Messenger is fully integrated with the same. If you have no issues seeing your name their or if anyone wants to check their account through your android phone then they can simply tap on “switch account” and log in with their details.
Though this roundabout method is a bit annoying one but is the only way to log out of Facebook Messenger on your android device. Even there are no signs of any changes in Facebook so it is only the one way around.

SEO Tips for New Blggers


If you’ve just started blogging and you’ve been confronted with this complex creature called SEO, then don’t run, or hide. Instead, the best way to try and get on with SEO is to try and understand it, and then try and tame it.
If you optimise your blog in the right way, your site will begin to rank highly on the search engine results page (or SERP) when people search for certain keywords. This will therefore drive more traffic to your site. By using SEO, you are making it easier for the search engines to give users relevant results for their searches.

Original and Engaging

The first and foremost aspect of optimising your blog is to write good, original content. If you have created a blog for any other reason, you’re doing it wrong. You’re optimising your blog so people can find it and read it, so creating content that will compel them to share it and return to your site at a later date is a necessity for a great blog.

Optimising Your Content

Using keywords in your posts will mean that Google will pick up on it and acknowledge it as relevant, and it will help bump your blog up in the rankings. You can use tools like Google Blog Search and Google News to help you figure out what searches are popular right now, or within the last day. You can then use these keywords in your next post.
Ideally, use the keywords in your title and near the beginning of your post. If you’re writing naturally, then you’ll use the keywords a couple of times within the post as well as using related phrases. Don’t stuff your content; instead focus on who you’re really writing for- your readers.

The Technical Bit

Structuring your site for people is all very well, that’s who your blog is ultimately for, but you need to structure your site for the search engines too. Your most important content should be in HTML text format, so the search engines can find it. The crawler bots from Google that look at your site often devalue image, flash files and other non-text content. If you want to see what the search engine sees, try viewing the cached version and you’ll see what indexable content you’ll have on your site. Check whether your pages are visible to the search engines too.

Tools

Tools can make your time as a blogger much easier and more efficient, especially if you’re finding SEO confusing or time consuming. Here are a few that will help you along the SEO road until you’re a pro.
Google’s keyword tool is AdWords, which can help you research potential keywords. Although there are other keyword tools, this is the foundation that you can build upon.
WordPress SEO by Yoast is an excellent all round plugin for WordPress sites. It includes everything you might need, and for an newbie blogger, or for anyone new to SEO, it’s easy to use.
Webmaster Tools and Google Analytics are tools that you cannot go without for implementing SEO tactics. For all your tracking traffic and SEO advice needs, you can’t go wrong with these tools.
