1) I often looked up photos that relate to the topic of each blog. Also, for some questions that involve more intricate and sophisticated answer (such as this one) I used SEO. I often enjoyed using my real life experiences in each posts (skydiving, dancing, rugby).
2) Some keywords were business, entrepreneur, and success. I chose those words based on what the posts involved. I refined my words by the sentence i placed them into. I was more cautious and aware as to where I used many of those words.
3) I did not utilize social media to enhance my SEO efforts. I did not see how it could help since all my social media is geared to my professional life and i don't rely on feedback.
4) The post that obtained the most traffic was the What's Next post. I think that is because not many people did the assignment so they weren't assigned peer reviews.
5) I did not make it to the first page or any page for my key words, that i saw.

Hey Cristal! I think you did an excellent job at completing this assignment and think you have taken away a lot from this course. It is very difficult to reach the front page but I think most students were able to learn from this exercise. I think your work ethic and motivation will lead you to a lot of success in your professional future. http://ethan2you.blogspot.com/2016/04/google-gold.html
ReplyDeleteCristal, utilizing real life experiences to gain a better understanding and build a connection to your probable readers is a great strategy. I also found it quite difficult to make it to the first page of a google search and in my own attempts to figure out what page my post or blog was listed was even more difficult. I do wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
