There are at least two ways on how to promote your blog.

1. Link exchange: it’s useful to have a higher Google PR (page ranking)

2. Blog submission. Submit your blog to free blog directory.

Here are the blog directory I found on the internet. A few of them requires you to put their badge / chicklet / logo in your blog, if it’s the case just follow the requirements and remove them once your blog has been accepted.

If your blog language is English, just copy & paste this code somewhere in your sidebar or footer widget/gadget:

<script src="http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://www.google.com/ig/modules/translatemypage.xml&up_source_language=en&w=160&h=60&title=&border=&output=js"></script>


For Bahasa Indonesia blog, copy and paste this code:

<script src="http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://www.google.com/ig/modules/translatemypage.xml&up_source_language=id&w=160&h=60&title=&border=&output=js"></script>


If your blog language is non-English and non-Indonesian, visit here to select your blog language first before copying the gadget codes.

This code can be put into blogger.com / blogspot or a self-hosted blog; not wordpress.com.

How Good?

Honestly, the translation doesn’t work so well. I just try to translate this blog (English) into Bahasa Indonesia using the Google Translate tool. I ask my wife if she understands. She said she cannot grasp the meaning of the translation result.

That’s said it’s still better off knowing a bit of an entirely uknown language (Russia for example) than not at all. Bad translation regardless.
