One Great Resource for Boosting Blog Traffic
Thursday, October 9th, 2008
Just read Kathy Hendershot-Hurd’s “Fast Track to Blog Success” — and I’m impressed. This PDF guide shows you how to identify the keywords you should be using in your blog to increase your traffic. It mixes tips on a little bit of everything including SEO basics for bloggers and keyword research techniques.
I especially liked the way she uses Wordle to visually show what keywords are dominant on a web page (brilliant use of this “time-waster” btw…). As Kathy illustrates, it’s not always the keywords that will help you most that are dominant on your blog!
Kathy also inadvertently (or perhaps advertently — who knows?) shows us the power of a well-written (white) paper, and how it can draw more readers and/or customers. At the end, she offers a coupon-code for her 8-Week Power Blog Launch program — I can only presume that she will do well promoting the program this way.
I think this paper is destined to be one of those “touchstone” reports, so if you are at all interested in boosting your blog traffic for any reason, check it out. She has it on for free until tomorrow (Friday, October 9) if you enter the coupon code: CathRocks (alluding to Cath Lawson, of course.

Disclosure: I have no financial interest in this report — in fact I’m hoping that neither Cath or Kathy minds I’m revealing the coupon code here (though it is easy enough to find through either one of their blogs). I came across report via Cath’s blog, read it this morning, and decided I’d get the word out before the free offer expires…! If you’re reading this after October 9, check it out anyway — it’s worth the investment.
