Experiment With Your Post Titles
This is a nice way to increase your blog traffic. Experimenting with your post titles becomes a necessity, especially when you are looking to get maximum traffic to your site from search engines.
This is a very important point to ponder upon and often being ignored by majority of bloggers. When you go to Google and search for a piece of important information do you do the same as I do often? Whenever I perform a search, I decide from the post or site title whether the site is worth visiting for getting the information which I am looking for. There are some titles which are catchy, I cannot stop myself from instantly clicking on the such links and visiting the websites. On the other hand, some titles are long and boring. I prefer to stay away from such sites very often.
A good title is written keeping both humans as well as search engines in mind. As an exercise take a look at some of the pages on your website with very low traffic. Rewrite them to be more eye-catching and effective. Once you have finished with this task, you may go to Google and perform a search similar to this:
site:example.com
Study the page titles in the search results. If your blog has been around for a long time, you may find that some of your page titles make no sense. You would be extremely surprised to see how bad your page titles are in relation to the content.
Use Google to search information on your favorite topic, study the titles of every website in top 10 results. You can learn a lot from these results. Try all sort of random phrases, keywords and study the results.
You'll soon be brimming with ideas on ways you can improve your page titles. Checking how enticing the information is in your meta description tag can help, too. Some search engines display this information in their search results.
If you have a well established site, you may have written many of your page titles and meta descriptions years ago when you knew less about marketing than you do now. If so, it's time for another look at them.
