How 1 blog post attracted 2000 website visitors in 1 week.
Content marketing is a strong buzzword that is going around in the internet community. People know that it is important, but not as many people know how to practice what they preach. Furthermore, many people are unaware of the value content marketing has on a business. So rather than preach about its benefits and what it could do for your business, I am going to share a real life example of how 1 blog post brought in over 2000 new website visitors in 1 week.
A couple things to bear in mind with this example.
- The blog post was developed in French.
- The market was targeting people interested in Afro hair maintenance.
Blog post.
The ‘slang’ word we use in the office is that we need to give people golden nuggets of information that they are craving for. And the information must be presented better than any other information has already been published for that market. Mediocre posts will get mediocre results. Epic posts should get epic results.
The blog post addressed the problem of having dry natural hair.
Promotion.
The blog post was promoted on the Olivia Rose Facebook page, which had less than 2,000 fans at the time. The post was well received and was shared online. The article then got picked up by this Facebook page, which that had over 50,000 fans. The share on this platform drove 900 new website visitors in 1 day!
Results.

Formula for developing a valuable blog post.
Target audience x delivering facts & learnings = Valuable content
Don’t believe the hype that writing 300-10,000 words of fluff will suffice. End of the day, people want value. Give them that and more! When you achieve this, you have surpassed their expectation and earned their willingness to advocate and refer your business to others. And endorsements are much more valuable to your business over the long-term.

Hello David,
You’ve got an amazing guide here.
To make a niche blog like her rank that way, getting a media feature is necessary. I’m glad she got it.
Personally, what I normally do is to apportion a target page view to each of the blog posts I want to promote per day and watch how they perform. If one performs well, I will create more content like.
Doing this simple thing has helped our blogs grow beyond measure.
Thanks for always sharing great value.
