“Porn with lesbian dinosaurs.”
– Search term I got
I’ve inadvertently built up a passive viewership stream. After writing about how my mullhawk made me look like Christy Mack, I was inundated with hundreds of search terms that pertained to her. “Christy Mack” has become the site’s most popular search term, with thousands of viewers pouring in because of it.
How I did it
Making a post attract a certain viewership is actually pretty simple. With my mullhawk post I simply used the SEO by Yoast plugin to make sure that the content would easily get picked up on by Google. This probably sounds complicated, but it’s actually as simple as following a checklist. Here’s what the plugin was showing when I last saved this article:
Once you get enough of the circles green, the whole post will be SEO friendly.
As you can see from the list you’ll want the article to be at least 300 words in length, and you’ll also want things like headings and images.
Why porn?
While I use this method for all my posts, only the ones that involve something sexual or crude ever seem to get a lot of hits. Articles about programming, finance, and weights get a fraction of the hits that anything remotely sexual does. No amount advice can ever get as many Google hits as “girls having sex in bathtub of pudding” will. The sheer size and scope of internet porn means that even mildly suggestive content will get searched out by someone.
This is also great for selling stuff. While I’ve reviewed a number of great books, most of them never get sought out. However, my review of Porn Star still gets Google searches that lead to people buying the book.
Conclusion
I hope you learned something from this post. While it’s not mandatory that you add scantily clad women to your content, or reference famous porn stars, it does help boost readership. It’s also, as silly as this sounds, a great way to learn how to write SEO friendly articles like this one.
