Google Gold

This semester, in order to attain Search Engine Optimization (SEO) I focused my writing in my blogs and used a set of key words to promote my ideas. In most posts, I would give a brief summary of my product and explain how it's useful so that if someone happened upon my post, they would know that I was selling phone charging cables that were built like a slinky, with the ability to stretch up to 6 feet without fraying or breaking (also available in 5 colors).

I used a variety of keywords throughout the semester and I do believe that my terminology somewhat evolved throughout the semester, especially over time as my product became more specific (in design and concept). I have yet to make it to the first page in Google with my keywords.
Some of my keywords include:

• Elastichord (name of product)
• Slinky
• Charging Cord 
• Tech Accessories

I think that social media did not really play a factor in my blog. I think this class was most helpful in spreading awareness of my blog, as random students were assigned to comment on my posts each week. I believe this was effective in distributing my blog (and my product) across the internet. 

My most viral post was my "What's next?" post. I think this post obtained the most traffic because students are more likely the explore the blog directory now (later in the semester).
