The SEO Long Game is Paying Off

Finally.

When I started Album Daily almost a year ago, I read every article on SEO out there. Every one said the same thing:

"Put in the work and reap the benefits later"

I thought, ugh, I can probably game the system somehow right? I can figure this out!

In the end, time was the main factor, and I can finally say that is paying off. The screenshot above is for a search for "Kane Brown Mixtape Vol 1", the album of the day sent out on Monday. Getting on the first page for such a popular album is HUGE, and I think it will have amazing long term effects.

How have you done SEO? What has worked/not worked?

    That's so cool Henry! I remember getting excited when googling the name of my newsletter made us the first result. I can't wait to see results like this. Good work

      It really is the best feeling! Like, oh wait, this actually works

    For my product's SEO, I was linking "𝘴𝘡𝘳𝘒𝘡𝘦𝘨π˜ͺ𝘀 𝘱𝘳π˜ͺ𝘰𝘳π˜ͺ𝘡π˜ͺ𝘻𝘦𝘳 1st things 1st" from multiple locations whenever I wrote about it online. After around half a year, if you google the phrase "𝘴𝘡𝘳𝘒𝘡𝘦𝘨π˜ͺ𝘀 𝘱𝘳π˜ͺ𝘰𝘳π˜ͺ𝘡π˜ͺ𝘻𝘦𝘳" you get the correct link to the tool on the first page of the search results.

    The keywords that you try to feed to the search engines need not be too popular phrases. But instead, the long-tail – something that specifies your product's essence.

    That’s awesome. Free traffic and free subscribers FTW

    Congratulations, Henry! It's such a thrill when you see your domain pop up on Page One.

    I've done well with SEO, specifically in updating/optimizing old posts. Within just one month, I'm already seeing a dramatic increase in clicks.
