When posting an article or blog an effective tool used to generate people to your website is your Resource box. This is no joke people, use what is available and don’t abuse them. I sound like my freaking mother now!
Do not promote yourself in the body or the title. Don’t be a tawdry cheap writer. You want to maximize your traffic while being ethical follow these simple steps.
For example I have tried this for the past 3 weeks and now my name is on the top of the Google search engines. I am sure the fact that I have an odd name helps. Didn’t want you to think it’s that easy. So now my name is associated with articles that have garnered some loyal readers.
- Name: Most people will forget to do this simple task. Promote who you are here from name to title to your pen name. Start generating clicks when your name becomes recognized. Not the name of our company (self promotion basically pimping yourself. This encourages the reader to want more of what you are providing, information.
- URL: First and foremost make sure it’s right. Do what I do especially when working for a client. Go to their website and “cut & paste” the URL, you’d be amazed at how a small dot or letter can make a world of difference. Stay away from “anchored text links”
- Pitch: Keep it simple 2 to 3 sentences should tell your reader what you are selling. Be unique and different.
- Call to Action: Make them click this is where you have one chance to get their emotional need or buttons to go to your website. Something like “If you want to know more click here” or “Take a look here”
