      I have an article that gets a lot of hits, way more than any other I have. Is there a way I can figure out why?

      For example, Is there a tool to help me find out where people are finding it?

      Or another important factors I should look at?

      Thank you in advance

              Here are a few steps and tools you can use to analyze its performance:

              Analytics Tools: Use tools like Google Analytics to track traffic sources. By examining the referral paths, you can identify which websites, social media platforms, or search engines are driving traffic to your article.

              Search Console: Google Search Console provides data on search queries and landing pages. Check the Performance report to see which keywords are bringing users to your article and its click-through rate.

              Social Media Insights: If your article has been shared on social media, use platform-specific analytics (like Facebook Insights or Twitter Analytics) to understand how social engagement might be contributing to its success.

              Backlink Analysis: Tools such as Ahrefs or SEMrush can help you identify backlinks to your article. High-quality backlinks can significantly boost an article’s visibility and traffic.

              Content Metrics: Examine factors like the article’s headline, structure, and content quality. Tools like BuzzSumo can help you see how your content compares with others and identify what aspects are most engaging.

              User Behavior: Tools like Hotjar or Crazy Egg can provide insights into how users interact with your article, such as which sections they read most and where they drop off.

              These tools and analyzing the data, you can uncover the factors contributing to your article.

                To understand why your blog article is performing well, consider these steps:

                Google Analytics: This tool helps you track traffic sources (search engines, social media, direct traffic) and identify the keywords that are driving visitors to your article.

                Google Search Console: Use this to see how your article ranks in search results and which specific queries are bringing traffic to it.

                Backlink Analysis: Tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush can show if other websites are linking to your article, which can enhance its visibility.

                Content and User Behavior: Analyze your site's focus—whether it's tool-based or content-driven. Understanding your website's purpose helps in determining what content resonates best with your audience.

                    It's awesome that your article is getting so much attention! To figure out why, you could use analytics tools to see where your traffic is coming from and what keywords are driving it. This method works well, just like how understanding user engagement can help optimize performance on any platform.

                      @laurentjb There are a variety of methods and tools you can use to determine why your article receives significantly more traffic than others:

                      • Identify Traffic Sources:

                      Google Analytics: This tool is crucial for understanding where your visitors are coming from. Check the "Acquisition" section to identify whether the traffic is originating from social media, search engines, or other websites.

                      • Analyze Search Queries:

                      Google Search Console: Use this tool to see which search terms are leading users to your article. The "Performance" report will show you which keywords are generating the most clicks and impressions.

                      • Review Social Media Metrics:

                      Social Media Analytics: Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn have their own analytics that can help you determine if a lot of traffic is coming from these channels.

                      • Examine Backlinks:

                      Backlink Analysis Tools: Utilize tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, or Moz to find out if other sites are linking to your article, which might explain the increased traffic.

                      • Evaluate Engagement Metrics:

                      Content Performance Metrics: Look at data like time spent on the page, bounce rate, and social shares. High engagement often means your content is appealing to readers.

                      • Consider Current Trends:

                      Reflect on whether your article addresses a trending topic or recent news. Content related to current events or popular subjects often garners more attention.

                      These insights can help you better understand why your article was successful, and you can apply them to other articles.

                        @laurentjb You can check by using MOZ Keyword Keyword Explorer

                        1. Open keyword explorer & enter domain URL
                        2. I use https://jinxmangaonline.com/ as an example. Put it in Adrress box & select root domain
                        3. It will show the ranking keywords, along with DA & PA

                        I hope this helps.

                                          Backlinks from local businesses

                                          backlinks backlink profile blog post backlinks

                                          Hello, I need to make sure I understand this correctly. Will it help my SEO if I: find local businesses with a good DA & low spam score select businesses that are somehow related to mine (Insurance Agency) offer to guest post and include a backlink on their blog ( ask them if they'd like to reciprocate) For example, businesses such as
                                          Roofing companies
                                          Contractors
                                          moving companies
                                          etc Please let me know if there's anything I'm missing? Many thanks

                                          Improving SEO for an e-commerce page with 1 product page

                                          keywords blog post e-commerce

                                          I'm trying to improve the SEO for an e-commerce store that I'm working for that sells custom car air fresheners where you select the shape of the item and then upload the photo. The site has been around for almost 10 years so has authority in the field and ranks number one for custom car air fresheners and other related high-traffic keywords. However, there is no blog, no social media and has 8 total pages: landing page, FAQ, contact, guidelines, shape/product (page that starts the ordering process with little text), scents, terms, and samples.
                                          I'm struggling with how we rank higher for specific keywords that we are not number 1 with ok traffic (such as dog air freshener, custom air freshener for car with picture, custom photo car air freshener) and not affect the current keywords that we are ranking number one for. In addition, how do we rank higher for other keywords, if we don't have that many pages like a blog to create content? I was thinking of creating a blog to target more keywords, but I don't think there is enough relevant content to make. And I feel Google would find a blog about "top gifts for dad" or "top gifts for the holidays" not relevant. I was also thinking of adding more text to the shapes/product page which could be tailored towards a keyword. Maybe I could create another product page that goes into more detail about the air freshener with images, descriptions, and other use cases. On MOZ, the Domain Authority is 18 (really low), so I am thinking about working on getting backlinks from relevant sources with authority to improve our SEO. Or do we not mess with the text on the website since it works and not worry about the other keywords and focus on technical SEO items and backlinks to help with SEO? TLDR: How do you improve SEO for new keywords for an e-commerce business that doesn't have a lot of pages for content without affecting its number 1 ranking on other keywords?

                                          New blog contributors

                                          For context my website is a content resource portal. In SEO training I have been told that it is a good SEO move to have as many content contributors as possible. As a result we are pushing to recruit new content contributors so they can be listed as new contributors/authors on our site alongside their valuable content. Would this move be good for our SEO rankings and is there anything in particular to consider with this?

                                          Internal blog with history and some SEO value versus new external blogs with specialized content?

                                          We operate a blog inside a folder on our site and considering the launch of 4 highly focused blogs with specialized content which are now categories on the internal blog. Wondering if there is more value in using the external new blogs or just keep growing the internal blog content. Does fact that the internal blog is buried amongst millions of pages have any impact if we want the content indexed and value given to the links from the blog content to our main site pages.

                                          Is it ok to have two blogs for my website?

                                          Hi Pep's The blog for my website is integrated, but does not have a URL that matches the text. The company I use for my site say that it can't be changed. Basically it displays numbers instead of text in the url. So I thought, what about starting another blog as well as the original. Would this have any effects on my SEO, negative or positive? Any advice greatly appreciated! 🙂

                                          Blog for SEO: embedded in the site or separate

                                          Hello, For both ecommerce and sites that sell services, I've seen a lot of people recommending a blog for SEO. Should this blog be inside or separate from the main website for the most results? I can see how adding one to a site would create more unique content and an opportunity for link bait, but perhaps there is a reason to have a blog separate from the main site Thank you.
