So Kyle has stressed over and over again in his courses and training that we must write for our audiences and I agree 100%.

If we don't write for our audience we simply won't have any readers. Anyone that does come to our website will leave quickly and this will in turn negatively impact rankings.

Remember that although your #1 goal is to make money, in order to do this your audience needs to read your content before they will be motivated to buy anything!

However if we can write with skill for our audience and implement some simple strategies that the search engines enjoy at the same time this can really help improve our rankings.

I've seen a number of people post the same question. They have researched and chosen their keywords, so now what do they do with them?

Has anyone here got a site with more that 5 thousand posts on it ?

why would someone make 5 thousand posts? It will do no good at all to the websites

Would 5000 posts not be good? Surely that would mean a huge amount of traffic? Am I being dumb here?

Based on my experience, I have reasons to say why 5k posts won't be good.

1. There is less than 15% users that will surf your website - the rest will only read the page they found by Googling.
2. Having 5000 kind of posts means you have to have MINIMUM 5000 out links - Google won't like this. high chance being banned
3. Remember that a website supposed to be specific? 5000 posts wont let you serve specific niche anymore, you will go outside the boundary.
4. Slowing down your website due to high storage
5. If you make over thousands of post, your website would be more likely to act as a forum rather than a blog.

That is just my opinion, no offense.
correct me if I'm wrong

Oh no, no offense taken at all. I just always assumed the more content the better :)
So ultimately you are saying that once you have a decent amount of content on your website at some stage it is best to slow down otherwise eventually you will have covered the topic completely and have nowhere to go? And also run the risk of having too large a website?

yes, and if you really want to make more content. track down the one with the least traffic, delete it, create a new one. That will make your website have higher quality in google's perspective

As from Affiliate Marketing perspective, when you have a website running with high traffic and going smoothly with the revenues. You should start creating a new website, rather than just creating a new content for the old websites.

Unfortunately I don't have a website at that stage yet where I can sort of leave it and start another one. Hoping to get there one day :)

Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Hi I think I must agree the more posts the better, big sites like Amazon don't get a penalty for being too big for google !

that is correct from web builder or affiliates perspective.
however we are here to make money as effective as we can using affiliate marketing strategy and that is why I explained as what I mentioned above

Hi Lynne. Me again. great training. I just had a question about the meta description. If you are using all in one SEO, I thought it wrote the meta description itself? Should you amend what is there or just check it?
Reply
LynneHuy Premium
Hi, yes you can amend it and your title in the All in One SEO, I always do!

You can leave it or you can change it. I always change it, but I am a complete control freak :)

It does write the meta description for you but it often only takes the first paragraph you wrote, which may not be what you want to show up as a description in google.

If you have all in one SEO you do not need to manually add anything. The only exception would be if you cannot naturally get the keyword into the first 160 characters (that is approx. the length of the meta description). In those cases I have manually filled in this box to add the keyword. I still use sentences, but it is different from my intro.

Here is an example. This is about 160 Characters in the intro of my actual post. The keyword is best baby activity gym
"If you read my article about exersaucer vs jumperoo, you will know that I am not a huge fan of these items and would recommend a baby activity gym as an alternative."

You can see I was not able to get the keyword in. So I went to the meta description box and manually typed this in:
"I would recommend a baby activity gym as an alternative to an exersaucer/jumperoo. With so many to choose from, what is the best baby activity gym? "

Now I have my keyword in the meta description.

I hope this has helped.

could you please tell me an example of H1,H2, H3 tags and when to use them?
Reply
MHainsworth Premium
They're just different heading styles H1 is mainly your title and then any subheadings you use to divide up content is often H2 or smaller sections can be H3.
Reply
LynneHuy Premium
The biggest heading is an H1 heading, I never use those, way too big. I make use of the H2 and H3 headings mainly.

I use the H2 headings for main headings and H3 headings for sub headings.

For more information on the headings and how to set out your actual content check out Kyle's training here: I would plan your posts like he advised and try and incorporate different keywords in all your headings if it flows nicely :)

If you are writing in visual mode you can easily make headings as per my screenshot.

Or if you are writing in text mode you do your heading like this:
<h2>My Heading</h2>

I hope that answers your questions :)
