Another dreary 'spring' day here in Cincy - I laugh every time I use the word SPRING and CINCY in the same sentence...but I digress...
Today's newsletter is on a topic that is near and dear to my hearty: free traffic ;-)
|
Now, in truth, there is really no such thing as 'free' traffic, because you will still be paying for those visitors with your time and work BUT once you get your website set up correctly, you benefit from your work for months and sometimes, years, to come. ;-)
|
There is no way that we can discuss every aspect of optimizing your website for the Search Engines in this article, but there are still many steps that even the most novice of website owners can take to optimize their website for Google and Bing, including simple steps such as:
|
1) Having a clear category structure or silo, for both your products and written content. This makes it easier for both your customers and Google to find what they are looking for
2) Keyword Selection & inclusion versus human readers...Yes, keyword or phrase selection IS important - but Google wants the user/visitor to have a great experience on the sites it recommends, so stuffing your blog post with your primary keyword and related keywords will not help you rank better! Your writing will rank better if the article reads and flows well for humans first and foremost! ;-)
|
3) Length of your blog post - for many years, the 'standard' blog post was 350 to 750 words, then along came the truly overwhelming 'Pillar' post - a tome that Homer would have been proud of, and which seemed to put successful blogging out of reach for most normal humanoids. But in reality - the Big G would rather see consistency, so you are likely to get just as good results by posting more realistic articles 3 times a week than one humongous post once a month.
|
4) Don't use the same keywords or phrases over and over in your posts - this confuses Google! Yes, I know that can be challenging when your site is focused on one main type of product, such as journals, so try writing posts that focus on 3 to 5-word phrases (Long-tail keywords) that describe different types of journals. Ideally, the article should include the phrase in the first sentence, again mid-way through and at the end - but generally the exact phrase should only be used 2 or 3 times in the standard length blog post. Use variations on the phrase another 2 or 3 times.
|
5) Use your keywords in the title (h1 tags) and then again as a paragraph title (h2 tags) and be sure to make it bold at least once in the article.

There are so many free SEO courses online but one of my faves is by Debbit Gartner, aka The Flooring Girl. Over a period of 2 years, she built her blog up to $20k per month in affiliate revenue - all through SEO!! Yep she is my hero!!
|
You can find her free Beginner's Guide to SEO HERE and when you are ready to move on - her other courses are some of the best I have found so far and certainly the most reasonably proced by far! I have almost everything she has produced including Easy on Page SEO for Beginners, and 45 Not So Obvious Lessons I Learned On The Way To Making $20k Per Month (priceless!!)
And if you don't believe me - happy to show the receipts!! I really like to learn from the people that are doing this on a daily basis. Debbie has actually responded to my emails, and is a real person!! Her blog is not a corporate-made story - she is the real deal and a real person! Totally recommend her!
|
And regarding the registration for the Homepreneur Adventure: Part 2...
Look for it to go live Monday as I decided to make some changes to the registration process, based on discussions in the Kitchen Sink Zoom Thursday, and I will have the forms ready Monday at the latest...all great ideas that just needed some extra time to implement ;-)
This is going to be a 'curated' event, meaning that every submission for either the Premium or the Swag Bag giveaway will be reviewed and scored by a committee of 5 to 7 members, so that we have the highest quality of products for the event!!
