Building Your Internet Presence – Important SEO Basics
I have been sitting here feeling the need to write a new post for this Blog for a few weeks now, though I have started nearly twenty new articles. I have yet to finish any of them, so I decided to tell you all why I am pushing out this new, non interesting SEO article.
The initial point of this Blog was to bring more people to the money making parts of the website where we sell a great selection of T-Shirts and other things. One of the most important free ways to bring traffic to the website, is to grow it’s size.
Big massive websites are just easier to find than little tiny ones.
Simply by writing this article I create more text for the search engines to read, as well as more key phrases Google and the other search engines might look for. This causes us to appear more often in the search results, leading to more visitors.
There are lots of other ways to get traffic, but this way is one of the steadiest, and most consistent.
In addition to more search results, the links at the top of the page which point back to the main part of the website, might send me a little bit of PageRank “link juice”. Which again will help bring visitors to the website.
Well that is enough for now, this will probably get us only a dozen new visitors per month or something, possibly for the next few years, but eventually all these small additions add up.
PlanetaryBargains.com currently reaches over 120 000 people per year and we expect we will be able to double that next year.
Nice article, it does echo some of the things I was wondering about with search engines, and makes me feel like I am on the right track.
This strategy is no longer valid, but it was when I wrote it. Nowadays it seems internal linking carries no power.
