Use Yahoo

There are many ways to promote your online content, but have you ever considered using Yahoo? Yahoo has some great ways to boost your page views.

First, try using Yahoo's Buzz Index. This tool shows the top keyword searches for the day, as well as the searches that have increased in popularity the most. You can see a list of overall search terms, or break it down into categories like 'movies' or 'sports.

Popular keywords are more likely to get page hits than obscure ones or none at all. Some keywords are only popular for a short time (like holiday related items) while some are always popular. Try writing articles that utilize both (but not at the same time). This way you'll have some articles that get page views now, while some will slowly gain page views over time.

Another way Yahoo can be used to generate page view is Yahoo Answers. This is a public forum where users can post questions and/or answers on just about anything. If you've written an article that addresses someone's question, direct them to your article in your answer. Anyone who reads your answer will see the link and may be curious enough to click on it and read your article. You don't necessarily want to shamelessly promote yourself or you may look like a spammer, but if you do this well it should get you a few page views at least.

Yahoo Answers can be used to help you generate article ideas, too. Maybe you see a question you know the answer to, but you haven't written about that topic. Write about it then. If people are going to Yahoo Answers to look it up, then it's a subject in demand, which translates into page views.

Lastly, try submitting your website to Yahoo Search. This could be especially helpful if you have a personal site or blog. Submit that to Yahoo Search, and place links to your articles on your site or blog. This way you will get more page views on both (if more people see your blog, more people will see your links...). You could also try submitting your content producer page to Yahoo Search.

Whether you're new to the internet or not, Yahoo has some easy, free ways to increase your page views.
