New Record - 500+ Visits from Google in One Day

Well, technically I’ve been reaching new records for a long time now, but 500+ is a more interesting number to blog about, right. Right? Anyway, I just checked my statistics for PhotoshopStar and noticed that for the last two days I received more than 500 visits from Google searches, not bad! :)

PhotoshopStar is doing pretty well in my opinion, even with minimal updates - receiving at least 1500 visits every day for the last few weeks, nearly 25% of which are coming from Search Engines. When I first started the site, I knew very little about this kind of stuff, and I didn’t understand how people got a large percentage of their traffic from SE’s, but now I do, and it seems to be coming quite easily.

They key to getting plenty of traffic from SE’s is, obviously, a lot of keyword-rich content. I’m trying to completely rewrite my oldest content that I wrote when I first started, as it’s all a little bit keyword-lean :D

Alright, I’m done writing, I hope you found this at least a little bit interesting ;)

Congrats! SE traffic is the best. All of my traffic on all of my sites pretty much comes from google. I had a site getting over 1000 uniques a day from just 1 keyword (till i sold it). I just hope i dont piss google off becuase all of my sites will be screwed.

I think a top commenter plugin would do well here. I think you should give it a try. It would certainly keep me coming back. Also when you link to your photoshopstar site link to it using one of your keywords, not just photoshopstar.

Hi Brendan, thanks for the comment and suggestions. I want to make a custom theme for my personal blog before I start adding tons of custom stuff to the site, it’s just the way I am!

And don’t do anything naughty and Google shouldn’t drop your sites ;)
