Photoshelter has been sounding their big round SEO horn the last couple days, and I can’t believe I was letting myself go through life with a score of just 42 out of 100 points according to their SEO Grader. I downloaded their cookbook, followed their instructions, and I’m happy to say that my SEO score is now a manly and commanding 92 points. If my understanding of Search Engine Optimization is correct, you can now search for “Waxed Mustache” and my site is the first one listed.
The picture I chose to illustrate this post is my most popular photo on Flickr in terms of views. As I sit here writing this post, it has been seen 4,676 times since I took it with my very first digital camera in 2004. It is perhaps an example of good SEO in and of itself. Are people drawn to it because of its magnificent composition, or because I so aptly labeled it with its subject, the world’s largest horse?
In any case, I hope that some of its hit-grabbing properties somehow ooze onto this blog. I feel like I’m writing in my diary here. Comments anyone?
