How to Really Use Keywords for Search Engine Traffic

I’d like to share an example of how Blogger Unleashed has helped me bring targeted traffic to my funny video site, the Masked Dispatcher’s Funny Video Collection.
What Vic Said
Vic wrote an article about predicting what people will want to search about. His example was Resurrecting the Champ, but instead of using that as his keyword, he focused on the boxer’s name, Battling Bob Satterfield and Bob Satterfield.
He knew that after watching the movie, people would want to know more about the real boxer, so that’s why he focused on the boxer’s name.
What I Did
On my funny video site, I embedded a funny video from the series Futurama. Incase you haven’t heard, Futurama is going to be leaving the Cartoon Network. It has been on the AdultSwim lineup for over 5 years, but the contact is ending. The day after Christmas there will be a final Futurama marathon showing all of the episodes.
For fans of the show, I figured, they would want to know why it was going off AdultSwim, so I posted a video under the title of Futurama Leaving AdultSwim. It’s a video showing what I consider one of the funniest clips from Futurama, which just happens to be a Christmas episode.
If you search Google using keywords such as “futurama leaving Adultswim”, “futurama leaving cartoon network”, “futurama leaving”, “futurama final marathon”, etc, you’ll see my post in the top 3 on almost all of those! My search traffic has been 61.5% of my total traffic! I’ve made some money off this article, now I just need to focus on converting that traffic into clicks better than I already am.
Something Else I Tried, but Nothing So Far
I tried using Bloggingzoom in a different way than I normally do with this article. Instead of focusing on futurama leaving cartoon network on Bloggingzoom, I focused on the fact that the post was a Christmas episode, and was going after the funny Christmas video keyword. I was trying to get some Christmas holiday traffic with that post, but so far I can’t see that I have.
I highly suggest that if you want more search traffic, you check out Blogger Unleashed and subscribe to the RSS. Be warned, Vic has a mean sense of humor, so read everything first before you comment on anything
