1) A discussion of your general approach and strategy to search engine optimiation (SEO). What were some of the activities you did for each blog post to pursue SEO?
Honestly I didn't think explicitly about this aspect of it even though we talked about it. I tried to use shipping and my business name as often as possible in order to portray a sense of continuity.
2) What were your keywords. How did you select those keywords? Did you change or refine your keywords through the semester?
My main keywords were shipping, Shiphappens, USPS. I chose those because they apply directly to my business either through a service competitors or my company.
3) How did you use social media to enhance your SEO efforts? What your your surprises or general impression of using social media to improve your blog's profile? Was social media generally receptive of your blog, or did it get ignored?
I didn't do any of these things because I wasn't really looking to draw people to look t my class blog honestly this isn't a viable business at this time.
4) What was your most "viral" post? In other words, which post obtained the most traffic? Why do you think?
My most looked at post was my first idea napkin. I am honestly not sure why that got more then my second idea napkin though.
5) Finally, did you make it to the first page of Google results for your keywords? If not, what page of results did you make it to?
Hello, I am glad to see that you engaged with the assignment. I feel like your work was well executed and that you used useful tags to attract attention to your blog. Overall I would say that you should work on getting your blog to be even more popular. This way you can reach a larger audience and spread your idea to even more people.

Hey Garrett,
ReplyDeleteMy post is very similar to yours which makes me feel better! I did not even think about this for a second this semester so when I read the assignment I was just kind of like "Uhhhhh." Glad to know I'm not the only who just saw this as a class blog and that my business idea is definitely not viable right now. Great post!
