      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.

                                          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?

                                          Blog post outreach for backlinks

                                          blog post outreach blog post backlinks guest blog posting in context link building content marketing

                                          Hi all, My understanding of obtaining backlinks by way of blogpost outreach is that it's best to include several outbound links to related high domain websites within blog post copy (as well as a link to the website you're marketing, obviously) such as this post https://www.scoopearth.com/why-should-you-use-royalty-free-music-for-youtube-videos/ or this one https://small-bizsense.com/how-to-create-quality-content-for-your-business/. However, I've recently read a few articles that suggest that from a human perspective only having one clear link in the copy, such as this post https://www.clichemag.com/entertainment/movies/the-benefits-of-royalty-free-cinematic-music-for-your-videos/, increases the chance of the reader visiting the site in question. I guess the thinking is that if there's only one link to be clicked on it increases the chances of click-thru, as opposed to the reader possibly clicking on another external link that's only there because of current SEO advice. So is it best to follow SEO guidelines and include several outbound links within guest blog posts, or is it better to only have the one link to your client's site (to focus the readers attention on it)?

                                          Blogging for Clients

                                          Hello, I need some tips I think. I create content for my clients blog through research and I try to understand fully their product or service so that I can write about it and promote it. But is this enough, do you think, to be able to write good quality content? I will obviously never be as knowledgeable as they are about their product or service. Does anyone have any tips or approaches for writing content in areas they are unfamiliar with?  What do others do to create blog posts for clients? Thanks

                                          Help on blog topics for my niche

                                          I'm looking for a couple of blogging ideas to get the ball rolling (mainly in my head) for one of the company websites I am working on. The site is https://perco.co.uk  The company is based around offering trenchless technology across the UK. The first couple of posts are more like 'Latest news' items and I have only really come up with an idea of 'microtunnelling vs directional drilling'. I didn't seem to get much out of ubersuggest, soovle and google instant. Has anyone got  any ideas? Thanks
                                          Shaun

                                          Blog Anchor Text SEO Query

                                          Apologies if the following is a basic question but I am just starting out with SEO and I have seen this quite a lot recently on sites I have been on. My question is if you have a self hosted blog e.g. blog.site.com or site.com/blog and you use keyword anchor text in your blog post does that bring SEO benefits in itself or does the blog post have to be shared/commented by readers to have an effect? I have seen/heard of many sites spending a lot of money getting copy done or spending their own time and resources starting a blog but the blogs remain unshared or comment-less. I am starting my own blog to go with my social media and website so I wanted to establish the basics. Thanks in advance guys.
