5 SEO Tips For Massive Traffic

Marketing an iPhone application is just like marketing your product or your website the first time it hits the market. The “if you build it, they will come” theory still holds but what you build still has to be found.

Blog

Blogging about your application in the many forums and blogs available is a quick way to spread the word about your application to the masses. This is also a great way to get feedback from the users about your product along with listening to suggestions, etc. One important tip though, write something that is useful and informative to the users, don’t blatantly advertise or spam.

Find your Target audience

Who did you make the application for? Who were your targeting? What is your demography? Who needs the application?

Knowing the answers to these questions will help you find the target users who are most likely to download your application. Once you have information on your targets, you can market to these people via via forums, blogs, emails, etc.

Who is your competition

Keep an eye on what the competition is doing. It is very important to know what price the competition is selling their app at? Keep a look out for the updates they come out with? Do a bit of research on their marketing strategies. Follow a routine to monitor your competitors app and then take the best ideas and implement them also.

Are your Social

Be Social. Get on Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn and the many other popular social networking websites. Tweets about your app to everyone, cross link everything across platforms, do social bookmarking, publish your feeds, provide iTunes link to download your app anywhere and everywhere you go. Be a social butterfly and your app will fly.

1) “Time-Spent” Keyword Research

The main objective of good SEO is quality keyword research. Remember to have patience when researching and implementing ideas. Take the necessary time needed for each given task.

Finding the right keywords may take a lot of time and patience. Use tools to help you find out which keywords are the best.

Google Adwords Keyword Tool or Google Insight and Google Suggestions are good examples of some of the tools you can use to find the right keywords for your niche.

An idea to sort out keywords is to download them into an excel sheet. Remember that the keywords should match the content and products of your website. Sort the keywords by the number of daily searches, or monthly, or yearly.

Another idea is to sort keywords by competition levels. The competition of a keyword will give you a clue as to how many competitors there are for that keyword, and the likelihood of how high your results will show for that keyword. The lower the competition, the more likely you will get a higher search engine ranking.

2) Content

The second major factor that plays a role in SEO would be original and optimized content. Make sure to deliver fresh and unique content on a regular basis as well as balanced keyword rich content. Typically around 5% to 6% should be your goal. Web crawlers will take notice of this pattern and higher your rankings on the search engines.

3) Specific Keyword Placements

Make sure you place keywords in the specific areas that search engine crawlers look for them. Place keywords in titles, description, and tags. Use Alt tags and place them on images if you have any. Web crawlers only read html on your webpages. So where there is html, try to include keywords.

4) Article Submission

Submit articles to article websites. This will help your website to get crawled faster. Remember to place keywords in your title, content, and tags.

Also remember to go back and add article keyword tags for other keywords that happen to display your results.

5) Social Bookmarking

Make a schedule to be highly active in social bookmarking sites. Join the most famous bookmarking sites like digg, twitter, delicious, etc. Bookmark your articles on a daily basis. Along the way, make friends or gain “followers,” to build your own line of fans.

Use these techniques on a daily basis and you will start to see results. Remember to stay consistent, and just do it!
