Farming Money with SEO [Guide #2]

Let’s dive into the practical things with SEO.

Starting out you can find on many places on the internet that if you want to have your own blog – the best thing you are able to do is write and post quality content, but not only the quality but quantity as well. Thing is that you have to put this in the perspective that there are lots of competitors nowadays who are trying this tactic, which means as a new blog out there that does not have any viewers pushing new and quality content is not enough. It is not enough because you lack the traffic in the first place, nobody knows your website. If nobody knows your website google won’t put it in the first page, nor others will notice it… Many people will tell you quality content is equals to be able to rank better. But where does the promotion of your content take place?

If you want to give up in the end just write content and publish it. This might not be nice from my side to tell you, but it is true. Chances are much lower that somebody might notice your blog and share it on social media or elsewhere when your website LACKS traffic in the first place.

Fresh and high quality content have very little value of even no value when your goal is to rank #1 on Google. Google is known for showing BEST result that is relevant to the reader. If the best result comes from a website that last post was made like 1-3 years ago, then you can sit down and think about does fresh content really matters at all at the end of the day?

Your Goal Should Not Be To Optimize Articles Around Long Tail Keywords

Before you might even be able to rank with these, but today you can’t. It bothers me when I see newbies using this tactic. It is better to know that it doesn’t work and actually look to implement what does work so that in the future you are going to IMPROVE you rankings.

As I have already mentioned before in this article: Many people simply go for the option to publish and wait for the miracle to happen, when they don’t see that their miracle is happening they either quit or they continue, some of them succeed by looking for other options. You MUST look on how to build backlinks to your website. Your goal should be to try to build backlinks to your website.

In short backlinks are links from other websites that point to your blog. Either from some social media such as facebook, other people sharing your link, this is why you also MUST have the ability for people to share links with one click to your blog/articles that you write. Backlinks can also be from other blogs, some other websites etc. Basically, an external source that points to the particular page or post on your blog.

Put it this way there are millions and millions of new posts being posted everywhere on the internet. How do you think people are going to find your blog and that google is going to rank it well if you don’t have the backlinks out there, backlinks are like the building structure of your blog that is going to drive traffic and is one of the best strategies for the long term that you can use.

How to drive traffic via backlinks?

First things first you should create the content that people are actually going to share. You need to learn and analyze what type of content that is for your niche. You have to engineer your content to drive shares and make it easily shareable. If you want to write something, don’t write it just to write it and post but actually think a bit about how to make it interesting to people that they are going to share your article.

Another thing is to know how you want to promote your content. Of course there are “free” and “paid” ways for this. For example you should also think about using social media and to create your personal or even specific accounts on social media for your blog. With these accounts you want to do the promotion.
