Hyping up your website & making it extraordinary

in #blog7 years ago (edited)

 Want to know how well your website is doing? And discover which pages & blogs are most popular?

You can be blogging and posting a lot of stuff on your Steemit and website, but not know how they have been accepted and appreciated by the general public.

Checking out your website’s performance is important:

  • What do people really think of your website?
  • What do they want to see and read about? What topics are people are really interested in? 
  • Where, what country, are your visitors coming from? What is their customs and ethics? Are you serving up their type of thing? What’s on the `menu’ for them to choose from? That is `food’ for thought! 
  • How many people are linking back to your websites and keeping tabs on you and what you are doing or saying? And who are they?
  • What is it about your theme/niche that turns people on, makes them coming back for more?
  • What is it that they are not interested in? That you can remove from your website.
  • Sift through the data to decide what the reason is, that keeps bringing people back to your website?

Doing research and gathering facts will help you assess, streamline and adjust your website to make it exceptional and out there in front. Sometimes it is just a little` tweaking’ that makes all the difference.

If you see what people like on your website, you can give them more of what they like, and this way bring in more subscribers.

And those blogs that are not attracting people:

  • Either these types of blogs need more keyword impact put in their title or more sensational influence in their content.
  • Revamp those blogs and republish the to the social media, once you have learnt more about making your content more effective.
  • Or delete those blogs or pages, and find something else to write about, that will cultivate more interest in your website and embody your type of niche/theme. 

Places on the internet that help analyse your website:

Checking through your Twitter account:

 If you have a Twitter account, browse the internet, using https://tweetdeck.twitter.com/.

 It will take you behind the scenes of your twitter page. And there you will find four columns:

  1. What is been posted to your Home page
  2. What is been recorded in your notification page 
  3. Recorded messages to and from you 
  4. Following activity that is happening there

This makes it easier to see everything at a glance.

Then if you are on your ordinary usual Twitter page:

  1. Click on your profile image (top right-hand side). 
  2. Then click on `Analytics’ down on the (Profile & settings) listing. 
  3. Here you will find which tweets and images of yours that were most popular. 

This helps you assess what stuff you are posting from your website that is most appreciated.

Nice post. I've actually checked out the stats on my Wordpress site a couple of times lately and found that, since I joined Steemit, the traffic to my blog has increased a lot!

I noticed that too. Glad you pointed that out.
I was wondering, if it was because I sometimes add the hash tag #Steemit , to my Steemit postings, on my twitter page!
