is how to get more page views on your
blog
my blog by sofia lee averages over a
million
well it probably averages like 750 000
pages a month sometimes we hit a million
a month i think our highest month was
1.6 million
our lower months right now or 500 000 so
i've really figured out
how to get page views and i'm going to
show you my inside tips
so first i'm going to start from like a
technical standpoint on how to get more
page views what i found worked for me
what i found doesn't work for me
um and then i'll start talking about
are worthy we really have i've been having bad luck with a lot more
situation outside but what platforms are
worth you spending time on
versus what platforms aren't worth you
spending time on and i think it's going
to surprise you first up from
a techno standpoint so if you are just
randomly
thinking of blog posts in your head and
writing them
i would say 95 of the time that probably
won't be successful
you need to focus on seo seo is search
engine optimization go
research it google it youtube it
it is so important in running a blog and
essentially what it does
is it tells google or the social media
sites
that you're on exactly what your content
is about
that makes it so much easier for it to
then go and show to people
that are looking for that so if i didn't
focus on seo
for this video for example the chances
that youtube knowing that i'm trying to
tell you how to get more page views on
your website
is like very very unlikely and
technology has gotten a lot more
advanced like where it
kind of like the behind the scenes on
youtube i don't know how they do it but
can kind of like see from what words i'm
saying
what this is about but you
still need to write your post in a way
where you're focusing seo
there is a science behind how i write my
post
i do every single thing with seo in mind
like literally
every single thing is with seo or
to get someone on my email list honestly
um so actually
my blog my perfecting blogging goes over
my seo strategy
but google it youtube it you need
to be knowing seo to get more page views
that will instantly like you focusing on
that will instantly skyrocket your page
views
maybe not instantly but like you know
you just need to be doing it
okay the next thing i have a little list
next to me that i wrote
the next thing that i am very passionate
about
is that you need to be writing every
single post on your blog
for the reader do not make it about you
i like think i always use this example
or
i'm actually kind of pulling one out of
thin air but for example if i was to
write a post on
my skin care routine if i title that
post my skincare routine
i can guarantee you that it will get you
less paid views
than if you were to title it for example
the
12 best skin care products that every
single girl needs
even though it's essentially the same
exact post that i'm writing
i'm writing it in a viewpoint that is
not about me it's about the reader
because
every one is selfish and you can
probably start even thinking about
yourself when you're looking at
different things it's about you it's not
unless it's like a celebrity or
an influencer so when i first started my
blog
literally no one cared about me people
still don't care about me at all
i think i'm starting to get to the point
where more and more people are
interested in like my
life but that took three and a half
years i can
tell you that no one cared about any if
i would have posted something on my
skincare routine
no one would have cared at all in the
beginning i mean it's not my
niche either but you know what i mean
like make
every single thing about them so that
they want to click and read the post and
then that kind of has the same thing to
do
with that you need to focus on titles so
i just gave you an idea on
a title but what i would recommend you
doing is going
to huge websites like buzzfeed for
example
and studying their titles they do have a
method to their titles
if you look at them you'll kind of
figure it out but it is so
interesting how when you go to buzzfeed
you start clicking in
to a ton of different posts and that
right there is
marketing on their standpoint and they
do a really really good job at it so
go to the top websites see how they're
writing titles because what they're
doing is working because it's getting
more
and more page views
all right now let's talk about platforms
and platforms or what you can utilize in
your
favor to get people to your website
if you've watched my videos before you
know exactly
the number one platform that i'm gonna
talk about and it's like the number one
platform
for all bloggers pinterest you have to
have to have to get on pinterest
pinterest is the only social media site
out there where people
go to it to click on to someone's
website
for my website personally we get like
600
000 views alone from pinterest and
from the very beginning of when i
started my blog pinterest has been
huge for just getting pagers there it's
the easiest way to do it especially
in the beginning i have a course called
perfecting pinterest which shows you my
exact picture strategy i'm so specific
with what i do from how i do my seo on
pinterest
um the way i design my pins how i upload
them how i use pinterest in my posts
there is a science behind everything
that i do
on the pinterest side of things and so
make sure to check that out if you're
interested
but moral of this all get on pinterest
and
post your pins or like your content on
pinterest
it will do amazing amazing things for
your blog
and when i first started i was getting
like now i've kind of evened out where i
get like
50 from pinterest like traffic wise 50
pinterest like 50 i mean obviously okay
like we have youtube and instagram in
there too so it's not exactly 50 50.
but majority of my traffic it's actually
comical how every time i start filming
lawn mowers show up out of dinner it's
not exactly 50 50. but majority of my
traffic comes from seo and pinterest and
so that's like a huge amount
so get on pinterest if you haven't next
up instagram
instagram literally brings like one
percent of traffic to my blog
which is like nothing so it's actually a
waste of time
for me from or like from my perspective
to use pinterest which is why i didn't
start a pinterest for the first three
years of my blog
i just launched pinterest or my ins i
say pinterest i totally meant instagram
i just launched instagram last march so
i've only had it for a year
and i actually thought it would bring
more traffic to my website
it really really doesn't what i'm on
pinterest or instagram oh my god why
do i keep saying why i'm on instagram is
because it forms a community
like way more of a community um and just
like brand loyalty really
but if you're first starting out on your
blog i would just not recommend getting
on instagram because it's not worth
your roi you will not make money from it
in the beginning
next up youtube so youtube surprised me
i'm gonna be honest i started instagram
and youtube in the same exact day so my
youtube is a year old also
and i kind of thought that instagram
would bring in a lot more traffic than
youtube i thought that youtube would
just be like
basically making my eggs in different
baskets in case something happened but i
didn't think that it would bring traffic
to my blog and it does
it's actually shocking how much traffic
it does bring to my blog
but you have to be really specific wit
and you're posting stuff out there
someone is not going to go to your
website just because
most of the time just because they're
watching youtube video you need to give
them
a reason to go to your website so what i
do is i use like free printables or in
my apartment
i have artwork that i am then like
okay you can go and download this for
free
on my website the link is in the
description so then they go from my
youtube channel
to my website and then they get on my
email list too which is like
very big in my business too but if
you're just starting out your blog don't
even worry about an email list
just worry about if you're first
starting out on your blog worry about
your blog
and about pinterest and nothing else um
and then
so moral that youtube has actually been
surprisingly
great for my traffic but you can't just
expect that someone's going to go to
your website you have to give them
a reason something like a present
basically that it's like if you go here
you get this for doing it
and then lastly tick-tock so i can't
really talk much about tick-tock
i just launched the tic tac on like last
week i'm
probably like i'm not good at all i have
no strategy
i'm literally just doing it to do it
just to see what happens which is
probably not smart but you know
sometimes you just gotta do it
what is incredible about tick-tock
is if you have something go viral
which i haven't had happen yet but i
like see other people
you can get followers unbelievably fast
like it is
crazy people follow on tick tock like no
one's business
what is my challenge with tick tock is
that
you cannot link as of this point right
now you cannot
link something to your tick tock so what
i mean by that is if i was to
go make a tick tock and i
talked about we'll go back to the skin
care example i talked about the skincare
that i can use
it's really hard for a user on tick tock
to hear me say those skin care
and then to go to my blog and to buy
that skin care
like usually i know from just like a
user perspective from my perspective if
someone talks about something on
tick tock that i want to then go and buy
i
will exit out of tick tock and i will go
to google and i will search that product
well that doesn't do anything for us
because we want them to use our
affiliate link
and it also like i know if you have a
business tick tock you can link your
website there
but that's just an extra step you know
like you need to make it as easy as
possible for the person whereas if on
pinterest
if they just you know they're scrolling
on pinterest and they open up the image
and they click on it that takes them
directly to
your website where like tick tock you
have to watch the video
then you have to go to their profile and
then you have to click on the link to
their webs to your website and i'm
assuming
most of the time unless you want to
change it all the time
that it would be to like your main page
and on a specific post
so then they have to go to your main
page and then they have to go to the
blog post and find it
it's just a lot of extra steps and
people won't spend the time doing that
so tick tock is interesting because it's
incredible how fast you can grow on it
but from like a perspective of getting
page views
probably not the best one so in my
opinion and from
what's happened with me so far the order
of social medias and like platforms to
get more pagers is pinterest is number
one youtube is number two
instagram s3 tick tock is kind of unfair
for me to say
because i don't i've just started it so
like i'm like a baby in it
but um i would be surprised unless i
have like a mega mega rival radio
that tick tock would generate a lot of
page views so that's just kind of my
insight on
getting more page views you really have
to focus on seo
seo will do everything for your blog
it's also
not a fast process like you if you think
you're going to get page views like a
month after you start
your blog you're out of your mind it
will probably take you six months of
hard work
to even get like a little bit of pages
like i think a common thing
that you'll hear over and over again on
like successful bloggers is that that
when they first started like
they had four people on it their mom
and like if one friend like no one is
going to go to your blog at first
you got to give it time you got to keep
working on it focus on seo
and pinterest and it'll be really really
successful
so like i said i have a
course called perfecting blogging that
goes over my seo strategy how i write my
posts
um how i use seo in my posts it's like
that's a science and then i have my
perfecting pinterest which goes over the
pinterest side of things and how i run
my pinterest account and get views from
pinterest
so that is that i hope you found that
helpful
make sure to subscribe this is my
blogging channel
i am really trying to keep things
separate because my other
niche is decor and honestly i want to be
known
for decor a lot more than i want to be
known for blogging
so i'm trying to like divide it up
because well i do
love helping people with getting their
own blog started i'm very passionate
about it i think blogging is like
one of the best like we just have so
much
opportunity in it right now like the
internet's still a new thing can you
imagine in like 30 years
where this is gonna be and if you can
get in now it's just
crazy so um i'm very passionate about it
but
i'm more passionate about the home decor
and so basically i'm dividing it up
just so there's a place where blogging
people can go a place where home decor
people can go
since you're blogging i'm assuming
subscribe to this channel
um i send out weekly emails too those
emails are like ins
