From where has all this traffic come? My Targets…
So basically the question is, from where is all this traffic coming?
All this traffic is from Social Bookmarking sites like Stumble and Digg.
I made 3 Targets:
1) Get huge traffic
2) Get atleast 100 subscribers before the end of this month
3) Make my visitors comment as much as I can
Target 1)
My 1st mission was to get as much traffic as I could. Why do people visit blogs? The answer is – “CONTENT” ..I get down to thinking thinking and thinking and I finally get an idea ! I was watching TV and there was this show coming up – Bindass Live! .The slogan of this show is “Speak your frekkin mind”. I saw the entire show(with the commercial breaks, lol) and the point I caught on the show was a one liner – “Humor, Entertainment and S*x Sells!”.
Okay my mission #1 was accomplished! I found the topic I searching for – Humor and Entertainment. My mission #2 was to publish an article which would be entertaining as well as loved by my readers BUT related to webmasters.. Well.. I went out Googling if I could find a link to this.. and yes! I did.. “Google” was the answer to everything! I published my article soon – Google ‘Suggests’ Stereotypes.
Mission #3 – Get visitors to read my content. Where could I get them? umm.. ahh.. Let me guess – Social Bookmarking Sites! I started bookmarking my article in Social Networks and guess what? The results are before you 🙂 There are almost 200 users online on the blog on average 🙂
I get almost 10k + Visitors/day just from Social Bookmarking sites and it feels great! I have achieved 1/3 of my target and still 2 more are left. I will update you’ll by 2nd of December about my targets and if I achieved them or not, till then do help me achieve my targets by subscribing to my RSS Feeds and commenting on my articles! 😀 and remember – Humor, Entertainment and S*x Sells! 😉
Google ‘Suggests’ Stereotypes
I noticed something weird on Google Suggest. I was searching something with “Why do…” and I landed up with this article.

Talk face-to-face right from within Gmail
From viewing videos on YouTube to screening family events, people love being able to watch something exactly as it happened. And as webcams have become popular, more and more of us are realizing that video is the next best thing to an in-person conversation. Today Google is introducing Gmail voice and video chat, which lets you have free voice and video conversations right from within Gmail.
Video chatting from Gmail is as easy as sending an instant message. With our team spread out across Google offices in Sweden and the U.S., it’s been really handy in helping us work together. Just click on the new “Video & more” menu in a Gmail chat window and select “Start video chat” or “Start voice chat.” You can switch to a full screen view or pop out the chat window and change the size and positioning as you wish. Of course, not everyone has a webcam, but even if you don’t, you can still have voice conversations alongside your email and regular chat. Take a look at this short video to see more:
Gmail voice and video chat will be rolled out globally over the next day or so for Macs and PCs. The first time you use this feature, you’ll be prompted to download and install a small plugin. To get started, visit http://www.gmail.com/videochat or click on the “Options” menu in a Gmail chat window and choose “Add voice/video chat.” Find out more on our Gmail Blog.
Google is at it again! Youtube sponsored videos
With 13 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute and millions of viewers watching hundreds of millions of videos every day, the popularity of YouTube can be a mixed blessing for users. While it’s easier to get your 15 minutes of fame (or more, depending on who you are), it can be difficult for people to find your video in the first place, even if it’s exactly what they’re looking for.
So how does Sponsored Videos work? Easy-to-use automated tools allow content owners to decide where they’d like their videos to appear, place bids in an automated online auction, and set daily spending budgets. Then, when people search for videos, YouTube will display relevant videos alongside the search results. These videos are clearly labeled as “sponsored videos” and are priced on a cost-per-click basis. (You can learn more about these tools in the video below.)
YouTube Sponsored Videos is currently only available in the United States. If you’re interested in running your own Sponsored Videos campaign, please visit ads.youtube.com

Tagging your articles
Tagging plays an important role in blogging. If there were no tags, blogs wouldn’t have been listed that fast on search engines.
How does tagging help?
When an article is tagged it gets a virtual identity on search engines which helps them list your articles. If you tag a horse as a donkey on your blog, its displayed when you search for a “horse” on Google. Google or any other search engine virtually identifies images/articles. So, tagging your images and articles helps Search Engines to virtually identify your articles and images. It also helps you increase your in links on google 😉
<— Here is a funny example which inspired me to write this article, lol
How do you get your tags in an article?
Tagging isn’t easy, nor is it so difficult that it can’t be done 😉 I’m using a WordPress Auto Tagger to tag all the articles posted so that Sensonize gets huge inlinks on Google + Traffic from search engines 🙂 Auto Taggers might make your blog look ugly but if your lazy like me, you can use it 😀 Download Auto Tagger
Tips:
– Make sure you add ATLEAST 5 tags per article
– Add the title of the article as a tag
– Each tag should be atleast 5 characters
– Tag the images (alt=”your tag”)
– Use accurate tags
– Tag more to get more in links 😉
– Adding a sentence as a tag is always the best!
