…and I’m proud of it.
I have no idea why, but two thirds of my traffic are direct (rss readers fall into that category), and the remaining third is from referring sites. In the past 3 months, I got 11 (yes eleven) measly visitors from organic search. Still, traffic levels are satisfying.
I am not a professional blogger, and never claimed to be one.
But I must be doing something right. You read everywhere, “content is king”, and I agree. But content does not seem to bring in organic search for me. It brings traffic from links. Maybe there is a threshold, and I am yet to cross it. I haven’t really tried, to be honest. I don’t bother with keywords, or linking to my posts. Hell, even my categories have the wrong keywords in them.
I am an SEO, and my blog is nowhere to be found in the SERPs. I have an online business, affiliate sites, directory sites, ebay stores, splogs with 100 times the traffic and higher PR than glowleaf.net
I run ppc campaigns, abuse every system I can find, either torrents, social bookmarking, auctions, scripts, exploits.
I can’t name all my domains by heart.
I know SEO, I do it for a living. But I decided not to promote this blog. It was my little experiment, whether or not good content brings in traffic. I can say now with confidence that it does.
But it’s not enough, especially for marketing. You really need to have a solid linking and promotion strategy for your sites.
I will discuss in future posts how to do just that, mastering methods for standardizing your website promotion. Stay tuned. Hit my big bad RSS button.
