Published 60+ written interviews, no traffic from Google.
Hi,
I've published 60 interviews with bloggers on BlogProfits, but getting literally less than 200 views from Google for all of them.
Any advice of how could I optimize the interviews for SEO?
Thanks!
Any other thoughts?
Very cool / niche site! I'm fascinated by bloggers who have built up a sustainable business. Bookmarked BlogProfits to read over the weekend!
Is there any way that I could filter the list of interviews?
Separately, where can I learn more about the story behind this project, how you connected with these bloggers, etc?
Cheers!
Jonathan
I'ĺl add the filter in the upcoming months. At this point, I'm not doing a behind the scenes, since it's more of a fun side-project. ;)
I think others already gave some very sane advice. However, I'd still point out to:
Incredibly helpful. Thanks.
I don't think SEO is the only way, you have to publish on twitter, reddit, hacker news, and other aggregators to find your audience. IH started posting almost click-baits to Hacker News and started growing a crowd from there. Collaboration also works well, and even maybe putting parts of your content in other platforms like Medium.com.
Good luck on that!
Actually given the content are bloggers, you could ask for the interviewed to share when you have them posted there? Also ask them how you could make your blog as successful as them :-)
I'm getting a lot of traffic from social shares & email list, but not just from Google..
Well, that's actually suspicious. Looking up for this search: https://www.google.com.br/search?q=inurl%3Ablogprofits.co%2F&oq=inurl%3Ablogprofits.co%2F&aq
Looks like you are not indexing at all at Google, you do indeed have a SEO problem.
Checking up Google Lighthouse (you can do that on Chrome), and checking for SEO... You score undefined, looks like Google can't check it properly because it's missing some crucial meta tags (besides you having so many of them added by some plugins).
Looking it up pretty quick you have to fix your sitemap.xml, there are generators for Wordpress, also check on https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ how to make it better, there's a comprehensive checklist over there.
Thx Jean!
