For the traffic experiment, I have chosen a few posts for it and will see whether they will it bring in the required traffic or not?

Avillion Port Dickson
There are about 1.04M results for the ‘Port Dickson’ keyword and only 25K for ‘Avillion Port Dickson’. Looks easy, but can be difficult if the sites on the first page of Google result page are properly optimized and have been there for quite some time.

Travian
Currently there are about 16.4M results on the keyword ‘Travian’ alone. Wow!

Sony PSP
Anything related to PSP is surely competitive, 35.4M results :)

It’s much easier if I have chosen some hot keywords, especially related to Malaysian politics, but I am not going to do that. It will be too easy.

I will start with the first 3 steps to increase traffic which I provided earlier. Then, I will work on the onpage optimization and later on the offpage optimization. I will evaluate the 3 posts monthly and see whether it will move higher in the SERPS or not.

To make it even more challenging, Travian and Sony PSP is not from my popular posts list.

By the way, anyone wants to share with me one strategy you frequently use to get more traffic?

    @Spatt
    commenting is one of the best way to ‘invite’ people to your blog. i use it most of the times.

    personal blogs are meant that :) like mine, but i am trying to achieve something with this, see how far can it go :)

    i hope i can learn something from you too :)

    menggunakan social bookmark memang best, tapi untuk traffic yang lebih konsisten, kau kena goda cik google.

    Cara kau pun bagus jugak. Google sukakan posting secara kosisten tiap-tiap hari. Dia pun akan hatar googlebots dia tiap-tiap hari. Lebih banyak pos kau diindeks, lebih bagus untuk trafik
