For many bloggers – especially if you are not one of the big bloggers in blogosphere, Search Engine is one of the best and easy traffic source available out there. For big bloggers, they may have balance traffic source between search engine, social media, direct traffic, and mouth-to-mouth traffic. It is needed the very long time to achieve the balance between the traffic sources. Therefore, as not so big bloggers (the medium bloggers in fact) we should only optimize one of traffic source to maximum at the time.
Search Engine is An Easy Optimizing Traffic Source
It is needed so we have enough traffic in reasonable time – no need to wait for the very long time. The traffic source that to be optimized may vary from bloggers to bloggers. It is depended which one that best match you and your blog style In my opinion, one of the easy optimizing traffic source is Search Engine. In theory, it is only needed to target the keyword that searched by many people. However, it is not that simple. We may need to do hard work to make our blog keyword appears in search engine first page.
It is because we will only get the significant traffic if our blog post appears in the first page of search engine result page (SERP). But, for now, let’s leave that behind since this blog post assume that your blog already has reasonable presents in search engine result page (SERP) after did the hard work before. If your blog is very new, you should stop read this blog post and start to build your blog into reasonable search engine rank first before come back to this blog post.OK, if your blog is ready which means have reasonable search engine rank, let’s rock!
Google Trends as Search Engine Optimizing (SEO) Tool
As entitle, we will use Google Trends (which is one of the best free website tool from Google) to optimize a blog post be a search engine friendly blog post so can drive a lot of search engine traffic to our blog. Google Trends tells us what is the currently most searched keyword through Google Search Engine and how the search trend regarding the keyword. Since Google Search Engine serves around 80% of Internet search activities, it means that Google Trends tells as the most searched keyword in the internet. We can benefit from this fact to create the Search Engine Optimized (SEO) blog post by using Google Trends as tool. I already experienced that this way can drive many search engine traffic to our blog.

- After understand the topic, we can start write a blog post about the chosen keyword (topic).
- Put the keyword in the blog post title. As example, put the “mariana island” keyword in the title such as “what is exactly the mariana island?” or others.
