While searching for my subject through Google, Yahoo or wherever, I seldom scroll past the third or fourth page.
With that in mind I am missing hundreds, thousands, or even millions of potential suitable sites whose data is simply going to waste.
I tried searching for our blog using a few terms the common Kean University student may use and it was rather difficult to find our blog.
In fact, to be quite honest I found several other useful blogs that would be sufficient for a Kean/college bound student, so the search ultimately has ended without our blog receiving any traffic.
So...What can be done to increase traffic?
- Adjust the site URL to the suitable target audience to a more specific yet concise URL
- Create more inbound links to our blog
- Make sure every blog post and comment contains a link back to our blog. The more URL's listed the more the search engine server recognizes our site.
- For each blog entry identify a few key labels to what the general idea of the article is. (Labels are located in the bottom right hand corner of new blog post)
Driving traffic is the most important step to SEO. After reaching users it is vital we maintain the users we have acquired by keeping our blog active through daily posts and comments.
We can start driving traffic today by putting ourselves out there so to speak by attaching our link to social websites such as Facebook and Twitter. In addition following comments we may add to blogs attaching our blog link is essential to increase traffic and recognization.
