We all know that optimizing your website for search engines is a great way to increase your search traffic, but how many people actually try to go after the long tail? It may sound dumb but going after those often forgotten, highly targeted keywords can increase your search traffic by leaps and bounds. Here are some things you can do to increase your search traffic for long tail keywords:
Paint a picture - be as descriptive as possible (within reason) when writing your content. This could be through the use of more descriptive titles or just being more descriptive through the main content on your website. When doing this don't forget about visitors because if this tactic will hurt their experience you should think twice about it.
Efficiency is the key to success - you don't want to try and figure out long tail keywords manually because this could take forever. A great way to find long tail keywords is to use analytics packages such as HitTail. One of the great things about HitTail is that it is free.
Spy - have you ever noticed that tons of sites that use Sitemeter? I also put a sitemeter icon under the "Adsense Hut". The great thing about Sitemeter is that you can publicly see what keywords your competition receives traffic for. Spy on your competitor and start going after the long tail terms that drives them traffic.
There are many ways to increase your search traffic by going after long tail keywords. Have you tried going after long tail keywords yet?
