Top 4 blog posts for 1st half 2013

By
Home Builder with The Flooring Girl

As we've completed the first half of the year, I thought it would be helpful to review my top posts so far for the year.  These are based on clicks.  Please note that these are my top Active Rain posts.  The ones on my own website are much stronger.

 

July 4th 2013 Fireworks in Westchester County NY

This is by far the highest ranked post for 2013.    It now has over 9,000 clicks and ranks #3 for my posts on Active Rain for all time.  These are mainly local people.  Next year, I need to figure out what I can do to better leverage this traffic.

 

Sounds like it's a really good deal, right? Ahhh...No...I would run

This is just a post that I shared about a potential customer who found someone really cheap to do his floors. If it sounds to good to be true, it usually is.

 

Top 6 Flooring Trends for 2013

This post is one that I really care about as it's actually related to flooring.

 

Kitchen Floors - Is hardwood or tile better?

This is another one that I care about ranking well for since this question comes up ofter.

Debbie - you're always good at reminding me about something! this time to actually be sure to look back on which blog has resonated with people. What a concept to continue to write about things that people really read - perhaps even over and over and actually subscribe. I guess sometimes these simple things need to bonk us over the head!

Debbie, Now that is incredible for a Fireworks post. It just goes to show that the locals are searching and want to know what is happening in the area.

Debbie I was also looking at mine this week and I was surprised that one of my top blogs for clicks was only about a three weeks old, it had 6,680 clicks already.

Wow Debbie, 9000 clicks! I can see why, as that post is filled with everything you needed to know about Fireworks in your area covering all the areas - great local post. Your other posts also are great examples of what your customers are searching for; top flooring trends, what's best for Kitchen floors and everybody is always attracted to the words of "what's a deal", it seems.
