1) I think that all of my posts were fairly simple, and I used keywords that people might search if they were looking for something that I posted. I didn't use super extreme words just the simple to the point words.
2) I suppose I kind of answered this earlier in question one. But another thing I suppose I have done is the use of my name... It is a little weird but apparently my name on my blog, when googled, I am the first picture. So I guess that is kind of weird but neat at the same time.
3) I did not really use social media with my blog, I guess it never really occurred to me. The only thing I did was post everything to my google plus account and that has received over eighteen thousand views, so I guess they have seen my posts and that is pretty neat.
4) I think that my elevator pitch posts received the most traffic. I got quite a few views on YouTube, and a good bit of feedback on those posts. I think that YouTube is the only reason it got the most views.
5) All of my accounts I have open to the public were on the first page of google. Those would include my blog account for this class, ifunny, Instagram, and my google account. All I had to do was google either my name or my account name, both showed up pretty much the same results. The only thing that was different was that the pages were in different places on the first page of google.
Katie,
ReplyDeleteIt is really interesting that your google plus account was what drew attention to your blog. I do not think that even occurred to me, and considering I only got 500 views it might have been a really good move. I did use social media, however, and I think that it did benefit me in the long run. My Venture Concept No. 2 received the most views on my blog; probably due to the level of detail it contained. I did not even think to check my Youtube page to see the number of views on there! I am really eager to see if I got more views on there. When I Googled my name, my blog did appear first on the search page, but when Googling the key words from my post I was not on any of the first few pages. So, looking back I think I would try to be more creative with my key words in order to get more views. Great post, and good luck with the rest of the semester!

Hi Katie,
ReplyDeleteI think its insane that you received more than 18 thousand views, my blog is currently sitting under a thousands page views. I thought I had a lot considering this blog was strictly for our class assignments. Your Google Plus account must be poppin'
