Why do you see the SAME AUTHORS all the time!
Isn't it funny how you've started reading an article about why I, and a few select authors, write articles almost daily?
CONTENT, CONTENT, CONTENT!
The number 1 reason people fail online is because they can't offer new content. Let's forget about search engines for a second, instead let's focus on the end user visiting your website.
Let's say "Jim" has been to his site once before and all of a sudden you see his website for something else and decide to visit it. But what, oh no, is exactly the same thing he saw a month ago. What's wrong with Jim? Just another stat from his website that will never be repeated.
On another note, let's say Jim saw his link in search engines again, except this time he's checked his website template. Jim is now intrigued and excited to see what's new, but oh oh, you have the same gory content as last time. Jim is yet another statistic.
NOW-Let's say that not only has he reviewed your images, template, graphics, but he has also committed to adding 1 article to his site every day. Jim is happier than the Pope himself, since you played directly into Jim's hand.
We all search online, for some of us, it's sheer boredom, for others, it's doing what you're not supposed to do at work and so on. The point is, if nothing changes on your site, how do you hope to encourage people to come back? Getting people to access your site is the easy part, getting someone to come back is very difficult.
They see new content (they = search engines), they also get excited and browse to see what you've added, not to mention that they also index all of your pages for search engine listings.
Let's go a little further and draw attention to this newly discovered content. Many people hide their new content in folders and subdirectories, etc. What I suggest is to have a little box on your home page that just details some new daily content. Try to keep the content you add within this box on your site for about a week, just so that new visitors have a chance to see it .
A website that meets the needs of the majority will be more successful than it can handle.
What you put into the world will eventually return to you in the same amount.
Health!
