How to make your Blog Website popular

In this tutorial, I will be teaching you how to make your website popular. I have seen a number of people asking how they can get their website popular yet no one has been nice enough to make an actual post about it. There are a number of BlackHat SEO and Internet Marketing methods on internet, but none of them give a consistent and truly effective means of getting a website popular so here it is. The techniques I will be giving you are methods I have picked up over a number of years that have proven to be very effective at generating organic traffic to websites, as opposed to buying 10,000 Hits or likes to a video that don't mean squat. Each of the techniques I will be be explaining will be done briefly, but sufficient enough to be efficient. If you wish to learn more about any of the contents in this tutorial I suggest you do some more research of your own but this will be enough to get you off your feet and start getting somewhere.

SEO

SEO consists of everything your website contains, (Domain name, Page titles, META tags, text, images, loading time and the type of content your website displays). With the popularity of search engines today, if you don't implement SEO into your website then you are instantly sticking a limit on the reach of your website. Millions of people search on Google every day for products or services they desire, advertising is becoming less and less effective as people don't just look at an advert and instantly get the desire to buy. People know what they want and when they want it, they will find it themselves, meaning that if you're not displayed on Google when they search, then they're going straight to your competition.





Niche
The niche of your website is everything. There are thousands and thousands of competing websites on the internet. if you're going to make a website, you need to make sure that you in a position to beat your competition. Search keywords that relate to your website/website idea and check what results you get, who would you be competing with? Now put your search terms in quotations (I.e. "cheap laptops") and look how many search results there are. This will tell you how many websites you're competing with for that specific keyword. The aim is to find a keyword that has a little competition as possible.

To get an analysis of the competition and the searches per month of certain keywords, go to the Google Keyword Tool and type in a few keywords to check. Make sure you change the options to set your location to wherever you're from (UK, United States etc) and make sure only the "Exact Term" box is ticked on the left of the page instead of the "Broad" box to get the true results.

Content

Now that you know what keywords are best to base your website around, it's time to start implementing those keywords into your content. The places you need to consider are:
  • The Domain - Although this doesn't have a major effect with search engines, it still has some; meaning that it could help you rank higher, faster.
  • Page Titles - Think about the content that will be on each page and what the best keywords are for that content. The title is the most effective placement for keywords.
  • META Keywords - These are becoming less and less effective in search engines, but they are still quite powerful at allowing Google to determine the identity of a website. This means that Google can easily see which keywords you want the website to be listed under and will improve your chances of listing higher. Make sure you use a selection of keywords that relate to the name of the website and the keywords that you chose using the Keyword Tool.
  • META Description - This is what search engines use to describe your listing on search results. This is also a very powerful factor in SEO, as it is has a big impact on what keywords you're listed under. This is also the first thing that people will see on your website, before they even click the link meaning that it needs to look appealing. Make sure your description is short, readable and contains your main keyword(s)   
  • Headers - The use of headers in your content is vital, it's like titling your work in school. It allows search engines to identify the important content on your website. These headers are used with HTML tags being the most important. Having content headers that include the websites keyword lets search engines know that this keyword is important, again giving you a better chance of listing higher.   
Page Content - In order for your website to rank high, the content on the website needs to comply with a number of factors. It needs to be unique. Stealing content will dramatically lower your rankings. It needs to be updated. Having a website that doesn't change at all will let search engines know that it is in fact dead. It needs to be relevant. Make sure that you use the keywords in your content and that it's actually readable by humans. 
      Social Media

      Again with SEO, the popularity of social mediums like Twitter, Facebook, and most importantly Google+ and YouTube, you would be stupid not to take advantage of them.

      Twitter and Facebook are probably the least effective, however they can have a massive impact on the popularity of your website if done correctly. Make sure that your pages are not only recognisable for your brand, but also contain the keywords you have researched within their content. Once you've done this you can start off by inviting your friends or even posting here for initial likes just to get the pages popular. The most important thing to consider when using social media is that people do not buy through Facebook. It's simply a place to raise awareness of things, so make sure that people can easily get involved with your posts and that your posts are relevant, interesting and regularly updated.

      Google+ is a new social medium that Google is taking way too seriously. It's now one of the most effective social mediums in terms of SEO, it's important that you make a Google+ page that is linked to your website by using the Google+ publisher tags on your website which will be provided on your Google+ page on. Again make sure that your Google+ page is SEO'd and it is regularly updated with new, relevant content.

      YouTube is possibly the most beneficial for of social media in terms of driving traffic to your website. This is because you are able to directly talk to your audience and show them what you have to offer. However, YouTube videos require a bit of work to make sure they get popular.

      Again you will have to do a little research before posting each of your videos, search your keywords into YouTube to see which videos are leading (Have the most views). You're objective isn't to become higher than them, it's to be displayed in the "related videos" next to that video. To do this, check out what category they're posting their video in and what tags they're using. Copy these tags as well as making your own tags that are relative to the video (keywords)

      Within the description of the video, make sure you have a lot of call to action. Place the link of your site in at least 3 times, top, middle and bottom.

      Once you've made the video relate to the most popular video, you need to get it to rank high. YouTube isn't going to post a video with 5 views next to a video with 100k. To do this I suggest you buy views from somewhere, I suggest Vagex as I find it to be the cheapest.

      Promotions

      People love getting a bargain or better yet, free stuff. To help get your website off the ground I suggest you make a competition or a free giveaway to new registrants.. Something that will get the word out about your website.
      The best things to do are things like:
      • Referral competitions (Most referrals wins a prize)
      • First 100 Members get VIP
      • Random giveaway to 3 lucky members on the website
      • GPT (Get paid to) I.e. Like my Facebook, Twitter and Google+ page and win a prize

      Be imaginative, and don't forget you can use all the methods above as well as being able to post it on forums like this one to help get the promotion out their, it's a win win situation.

      Black Hat Boosts

      If you haven't noticed already, there are a lot of Black Hat methods of promotion on Internet, but doing them separately without the prior work explained above will get you no where, you'll just payout for traffic or backlinks that won't do your website any good. However, using them to boost your efforts is a very effective method of getting popular.

      Things like YouTube likes/subs/favourites/comments/views, Twitter followers, Facebook likes in frequent, short bursts will help make your social mediums, as well as your website start to trend which will then result in organic traffic starting to appear. As long as you don't rely on Black Hat methods as a sole form of popularity and more of a boost to the White Hat methods, you'll be okay.
