Hi Lucywrites,
That's a great question. The best advice I can give is to:
-
Qualify the type of traffic you want. Traffic, in and of itself, is fine. But, traffic that leads to a goal is much better. If you get 1,000 visitors to your blog, what do you want them to do besides reading your content? Sign up for a newsletter? Make a purchase? Join a community? Fund you? Ask yourself: Is my content bringing qualified traffic to me, enabling me to meet my specific goals?
-
Discover the needs and desires of the audience for whom you are writing. What are they interested in? What bothers them? What amuses them? What would make their lives richer, more interesting, more successful, happier?
-
Then, look at your competitors to discover what types of content they have developed to fulfill this audience. Do you see ways you can go one better than your competitors? Is there opportunity they've left on the table? Are you a more interesting writer, more educated, more thorough, more insightful, better at graphics? What can you do that your competitors aren't?

Begin to build relationships in your industry/geography. When my favorite bloggers create something really good, I'm almost sure to mention it socially, and I might even include their content in the newsletters I write. When I write something really good, my favorite industry influencers often do the same for me. Figure out who you admire in your industry and be generous in sharing their very best content with your own circle of influence. Over time, perhaps you can get to know your favorite writers, and they, in turn, can get to know you and come to depend on you for quality publication of a certain kind.
Hope these suggestions help!

Hi!
There are a lot of things you can do to increase the number of visits to your blog, the first and most important one is to write high-quality content, as simple as that. Once you have a couple of really good articles that you are proud of, you can start using the social media to move them around.
Other things you can try are: targeting long-tail keywords, guest blogging and email marketing campaigns.
I hope this helps!

Blog hasn't ranked since reposting.
Hey Moz fam! I had a blog that was doing pretty well for the target keyword. Unfortunately, to make a long story short, we had an image in it we weren't supposed to so I unpublished it for a few days while we got that sorted out. Since republishing (with all the same content) it has not gotten a single impression. I inspected the URL and it is totally eligible but nothing in the way of organic traffic. Any ideas on how I can recover?

How Are You Handling Blog Posts/Author Pages when Employees Leave the Company?
What do you believe to be the best approach in handling blog content for employees once they have left the company? We don’t want to remove the blog posts so they need to stay, but then there are the author pages. This gets tricky because the CMS ties the blog post to the author. One approach might be to change the author’s name to the Company’s name to get around author pages for people no longer with the company. It’s kind of tricky because the blog posts won’t have the same credibility if they don’t have a person’s name/photo associated with the post. We could leave the blogger’s page and list him as a “Contributing Author” once he’s left the company. Thoughts?

How many categories should you have within a blog / Wordpress Site for SEO?
Hi Guys I am just wondering whether or not for SEO purposes it is better to have a small number of categories for your blog posts to fit into as opposed to numerous ones. The reason I ask is that I have one site which is fairly new to the search engines - 8 months old which has 7 general categories within the blog for instance "rail contractors", "railway construction" "airport construction" etc I have another site which is 10 years old which has built up 25 different types of categories for instance brand design, brand development, brand management (i guess you could put all these under 1 category "branding"? We've been writing lots of press for both sites... yet the younger site is getting more coverage on Google page 1. Would this be because the blogs / press are more concentrated under a specific category as opposed to being spread thinly throughout the site? Any help would be appreciated. Debs 🙂
