How to Boost Your SEO Traffic with Sleeper Content (And Stop Promoting Worthless Content)

You look at all these SEO tools out there, whether it’s Ubersuggest, Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz, and you type in a keyword, like I typed in marketing tools here, and you’ll see a SEO difficulty number which tells you how hard it is to rank for that keyword on Google. Now, this data is pulled through backlinks, but how can you figure out if a keyword is really easy or not to rank without going through all the effort of promoting the content? Today I’m going to break down how you can increase your traffic through sleeper content.

As I mentioned earlier, if you use a SEO tool and you type in any keyword, whether it’s marketing tools or even just something like marketing, you’ll see how difficult it is to rank for a keyword. And some of these keywords are really easy to rank for. Some of them are much harder to rank for. But does that mean that you can’t rank for these keywords if you don’t have a ton of backlinks? No, that’s not the case, and the reason being is Google uses many factors. Links are just one aspect of it. Traffic without putting tones of effort through sleeper content.

So let’s head over to the neilpatel.com website. As you can see here, here’s my homepage. Scroll down, a little bit about me. And then now let’s go to the blog where you can find all my content. Now I’m going to show you my content. I want you to see what’s off, okay.

Some have little to no comments, like 12 or 8. But why is that? Why are some posts doing extremely well and others aren’t? Well, I’m going to share a little secret with you. The posts that tend to have a lot of comments I promote. I push on social media, like Facebook, Instagram, videos, and my live sessions. I’ll cross-link to them more. I even do email blasts, push notification blasts.

I give a ton to promote them so that way people get to know that content, they want to share that content, and hopefully it ranks higher. But you can only send so many email blasts in a day. You can only send so many push notification blasts. You can only promote so many posts on Facebook on your fan page before your audience gets irritated that you’re sharing five pieces of content a day.

So let me tell you a little secret on what I do. I create a ton of sleeper content.

I’ll cross-link. I’ll promote it more. I’ll try to build links by manually outreaching to sites. I’ll push it on social media. I may even do the email blast. But what I’m doing is I’m creating tones of content and publishing it. But most of my content that I publish like that, this is what I call sleeper content, which if you’re publishing it, you’re not really telling too many people about it, you’re not marketing it, it doesn’t all rank.

A lot of these pages that I’m writing content on aren’t ranking in the top 10 results or top 10 pages on Google. But a good portion of them are, and all I’m doing is just publishing content. The moment it gets to page two, I’ll start doing more marketing to try to get it to page one. And really what I’m looking at is not if it hits page two. I’m looking to see if it hits the top of page two or bottom of page one.

I’ve been doing this strategy for years. It works really well. And you probably haven’t seen a lot of this content because I don’t push it out in email blasts or social media mentions, but it works really well, and that’s how I’ve grown my traffic to millions of visitors a month. So let me know your thoughts. Curious if you like this strategy.

How to Grow Your SEO Traffic by Updating Your Old Content

You write all this amazing content, and after putting in months and months of hard work, you start getting rankings, but then you fast forward a year. A year later, what happens? Your traffic starts going down. Today I’m going to teach you how to grow your SEO traffic by updating your old content.

RESOURCES & LINKS:

With all the content out there, Google is going to rank the content that doesn’t just have the most links or the best on-page SEO. More importantly, they’re going to rank the content that has the best user experience. And usually that means that’s the content that is fresh, up to date and the most relevant. With one of my earlier websites, Nutritionsecrets I no longer own it. I was able to build up literally over 100,000 visitors a month.

And the main strategy that I use wasn’t just cranking out new content, it was continually updating and expanding my old articles to get them more and more traffic.

So how do you go and update your old content and figure out which pieces to update? Which ones not to update? And heck how do you know what parts to update and how it works? Do you just add a sentence? Do you add in paragraphs? Do you add in more images, videos? Well, I’m going to walk you through that right now step-by-step.

The first thing I want you to do is to log into Google Search Console. And when you log in, you go to your website, I want you to click that on the pages link. You’ll see that, right? It’s already highlighted here under or right next to the queries.

The next thing I want you to do is adjust your date range. And you’re already on the pages section of Google Search Console, and I want you to sort by the last 28 days over the previous year. And when you do that, it’ll show you the articles that were the most popular to least popular in the previous year.

Now, going through that list, what you want to do is look for the posts that have lost traffic.

So there’s quite a few terms that I was getting more traffic from. So what you’ll want to do is start Googling those terms to see who’s ranking above you.

So let’s Google schema markup. As you can see, there’s an article by Moz, there’s an article by Search Engine Journal, then there’s Schema.org. And what you’ll want to do is click on each of those articles and analyze them and say, “Huh, what did they have that I don’t? What is making their article better than mine?” And you want to take that information for all the sites that rank above you, and then you’re going to want to modify your content. And you do this by making yours better than there’s.

You also want to delete anything that’s irrelevant. If something doesn’t make sense anymore, delete it.

When you update the article, I want you to also update the publish by date, so searching engines know it’s updated. And don’t just think about word count, think about user experience. You need to do what’s best for the user and not obsess or worry about word count.

And lastly, I recommend that you don’t change your URL. If you want to change your URL, that’s fine but just 301 redirect the old URL to the new one. And once you update it, go back into Search Console, type in your URL in the search bar at the top, it’ll start fetching the page and then boom, request it for indexing, and then you’re off into the races and within 30 days you should start seeing increase in SEO traffic to that page. It literally is that simple.
