How Do To Drive Targeted Traffic To A Website
Search engine rankings are really important to getting
clicks and traffic. We all know that (or should!) But
what do articles have to do with search engine rankings?
I contend that articles have a lot to do with improving
search engine rankings.
Here's the theory:
You write an article related to the topic in your web
site. You include a link back to your web site. You
submit this article to a number of online article directories.
The article directories make your articles available
for ezine and online newsletters to use as content.
Some of the article directories use RSS feeds to get
your article out to as many web sites as possible.
What happens next? Your link is being virally propagated
throughout the web world. As that happens, the search
engines begin to give your web site a higher ranking
based on your link popularity.
Does this happen like that in the real world?
Only effective testing and tracking for these types
of things can give you that answer. The best testing
is the testing you do yourself.
So how to do it?
Perform the following test:
1) Write 10 articles.
2) Put a keyword-linked "live link" in
the bio for each of your articles. For example,
the keyword phrase for the "live link" in
this article is "search engine rankings".
3) For this test, use a search phrase that has at
least 3 words in it. (This will make it easier to
see fast results; the principle is the same for looser
word phrases with fewer words, it just takes many more
links and articles to see results)
4) Use Google and Yahoo search to find article titles
that are being used by no one else. To do this,
type your proposed article title 'in quotes' into both
search engines and alter it until you come up with a
title that the search engines will give you a no results
return to your search.
5) Send your article to at least twenty of the biggest
article directories. (I cannot include the list
in this article due to article directory requirements,
but if you access me via the live link and send me an
email asking for my top 50 or so, I will gladly send
it to you)
6) After about a week, look up the article title,
again in quotes, in Google and Yahoo. Do it again
every week for a month. Look up your keyword phrase.
Count how many times one of your articles is listed
in the search results for the top 10, top 30, and top
100. This is certainly not a scientific test of any
sort, but I think you will be surprised at the results.
Let me know!
