Google Gold

1) I feel like I could have worked harder on search engine optimization. When it came to each blog post, all I truly did was try to promote it better by going on other students websites and attaching a link to my blog on their comments section.

2) My main keywords were my name, my blog title, and my beauty blog name. With all these key words, people interested in my ENT class blog, or my beauty blog, could be directed to this page.

3) I did not use social media to enhance my SEO efforts too much for this blog. All I used was my YouTube page that I created for the class and Yellowdig. However, I've had a very positive social media response when it comes to my beauty blog (instagram.com/evicitta). I have been enhancing my SEO for that blog through YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, and Pinterest. Social media has certainly helped improve my blog's profile.

4) My most "viral" post was "Napkin Idea No. 1". If I remember correctly, this was the post that required everyone everyone to comment on 4 posts instead of the usual 2 or 3. Because of this, I received 4 comments, instead of my usual 3.

5) When I google "Evelyn Fernandez ENT", other links of mine show up first but then my blogspot link shows up as #4. However, when I google "evicitta", my beauty blog is my first suggestion, then followed by all my other blogs.

    Hey Evelyn! I can definitely agree that I could have also worked a little harder on trying to make my blog the first thing on Google. After that one lecture, I never really thought about it again. I did end up on the first page, but it was an accident for sure. Great post! If you'd like, you can check out my blog:

    Hi Evelyn,

    I also feel like I wish I would have done more for search engine optimization, but seeing as how I didn't know this assignment was coming, I guess there wasn't too much more we would have thought to do. Good job on becoming fourth on Google and first for your beauty blog. It seems that you are very involved in your beauty blog and it seems like you did a pretty good job with SEO on that so I'd say that counts.

    I really like your beauty blog Evelyn. It seems very well thought out and consistent. I also did not work hard enough on SEO for my blog but I feel like now I know what I need to do to improve on that. If you continue to use social media to promote your beauty blog I’m sure you will be able to generate more traffic on your page.
