There are 2 key areas that you should focus on when creating articles and attempting to increase blog traffic. These 2 areas will bring you clickthroughs when you are found via search engines.

  1. The Title: this needs to be appropriate to people using Google to search for information. Keyword phrases are great when implemented in your title. If you were searching for what you are writing about then what would you search for? That is a great starting point for a title that will be found on Google.
  2. The Description: you should always write a meta description of your posts. Give people a clear idea of what they can expect if they click. Sum up what your article is about straight away. Make this text unique and not just a copied section of the article.

SEO optimize your posts. You need to turn all the lights green on your SEO plugins. If you are not using WordPress or any plugins then here is what to do. Just make sure that you are implementing HTags and alt image text on your images.

Link internally from previously published articles that are relevant. These articles will already be indexed and so provide more click-through opportunities

      Check out The8App, it is a better option now than Instagram. You can register at http://www.the8app.com or download the app from the app store. The app is the better option during development of the platform.
