Hit Tail Tells the SEO Tale
If you’re into stats and analytics, like I can be, you probably should know about Hit Tail.
You can get some pretty cool long-tail ideas from it to use in posts, web pages, articles, whatever. My most searched phrase happens to be “how to embed video” in various combinations, like “on Blogger,” “on My Space,” and in “WordPress,” of course. That’s pretty neat to know.
So, how can I use that?
I’m going to produce a video soon to go along with the article that I wrote here a few months back: “How to Embed Video in a WordPress Blog,” and I’m going to put it up in all the usual places. I mean, it’s so simple to do, it’s ridiculous, but people who don’t know how to do it are obviously looking for the “how-to.” Cool. Hit Tail told me so.
It also tells me what keywords people searched for to get to my blog today, like “netslingers,” “seo matrix,” and “scribd ban.” Hmm… other people must be pissed about that, too. But I know what they’re interested in learning more about. Also cool.
Sub-domains, Ross Goldberg Call, StomperNet videos, and How to Blog course are my “suggestions.” Great. I have a How to blog course at http://Blogging4Boomers.com. Check that out.
But you see how valuable knowing this kind of stuff is? I look at it periodically to see what interests people most. I can use the information in so many different ways that it really makes sense to have such an account, right?
The basic account at Hit Tail is free but for an upgrade, it’s only $9.95 a month. Check it out, and I’m sure you’ll see the possibilities in having this very cool and basic information.
