Hello. I need some suggestions. I went on the questions bar first so here I am with my question. My website is on books review so my keywords are the book title and author's nam
Like booklover2 and kyle say, I have been using low hanging fruit, using titles and authors and doing a page on each genre and linking to/from posts. We will see how this goes.
These types of keywords are completely fine, it comes down to the competition of the keywords. People tend to look for book "reviews" when they are doing their research as to whether or not they want to buy it, so you might want to target the review-type keywords quite often.
Here is some help on how to come up with low competition and the "low hanging fruit" type keywords. How to Get Keywords Ranked With Low Hanging Fruit
Thank you, Kyle. I feel better now. I appreciate your feedback. I'm going to check the low hanging fruit training.
Sooo many books and info, and not enough time.
Can you speed read?
I nee to come hang out with you.
My android kindle app could use some additions. Send me some scientific stuff.
I've had better luck putting them in their genres, like mystery, romance, paranormal or say historical fiction, classical, etc.
Thank you for answering. So do you mean that when you do a review you don't start with the title of the book?
I'm editing this comment because I went to look at your site. You have a store so this is why you start with the genre.
Have a look at mine and tell me what you think.

check out my blog page and you'll see what I mean http://fictionbooks4u.com/blog and I'll go look at yours now
you're on the right track, but you have to give your readers a reason to click your link, pique their curiosity with a title they'll want to explore, or something to grab their attention
I was able to do that with the Stephen King book 11.22.63, but I'm scratching my head with the others ;-) Thank you for your feedback. I love your site and left you a comment. I saw what you mean on the author of the month
it might help you to look at the headlines like at yahoo news and then rearrange them to suit your needs
My only suggestions you have probably tried. Such as category keywords (Horror, Mystery, Fiction, Non Fiction, Auto Biography ....etc"
No, I have the categories listed as new releases and older books. I probably should think about creating subcategories. Thank you for your feedback.
Hi Emilie,
If you do type in an author/book title, the top results will almost certainly be amazon, smashwords, goodreads, kobo and so on - so the competition would be high.
My better half runs a book review site - but to be honest, for that particular site we don't concentrate on keywords or SEO at all really.
She's built up a a really good network of authors and publishers etc on FB, and gets interaction through running blog takeovers etc.
I'm not saying that you shouldn't do SEO for your site - but there are loads of FB groups you can join to get authors and readers to your site.
I hope that helps?
All the best, Mark

I went on my site while logged and noticed the following box
can you do a print screen, "prt scr" on keyboard.. of what you see?
I am trying to figure what is going on with you.
The best Support on the Internet today. Is WA awesome oh what? Glad you got it fix Indiem.
The reason that these links took you inside is because you were logged in. If you were logged out it would have brought up your login page. I prefer to remove the meta from my sites. You can do that by going into the widget area where they are and moving the box to the inactive area. Take care.
Thank you for answering. I wasn't logged in. Catherine gave me the solution though so it's all fixed.
Thank you for answering Shawn. Great tutorial. Catherine had already helped me with the same info so I had solved the problem.
Remove the widget by going to the widget area and pulling the login box out of the widget

I was gonna ask pretty well the exact same question but figured i'd do a search first..... and look what i found :) thanks for asking it first.
Emilie, I use the plugin Convert Post Types, it's very simple.
Categories: Also simple.
Posts>Categories
Create a category: Reviews
Then go to Appearance > Widgets
Drag the Category widget on to your sidebar and place where you want it. There are 3 choices what to display, you will see what they are
Posts in edit mode shows on the right side the Categories you created. Check the appropriate box for the post
View your website and then you see the the Category Reviews
If you want to show the number of posts in each category, check that box in the widget.
Check out my set up

You have a very nice site John. So your home page is a blogroll. I saw what you meant about categories and all the posts. You also have 3 static pages besides the About Me page. So you don't change the content on those?
