Let Oprah Drive traffic to your blog?

This is a follow up post to Do Niche market research with Google Trends

If you didn’t know already I have been using The Google Trends tool secretly to jump to the front of the pack by capitalizing on emerging Internet traffic trends.

A big part of what you want to be accomplishing with your blogging is getting Massive traffic to your blog .One the best ways to get traffic to your blog is by being first for your niche topic.

OR in other words being in front of the parade.

There are a number of ways you can go about getting traffic like this but something I have found that works great is by really figuring out where the traffic is going to be. This isn’t really crystal balling, but just getting in front of the wave.

Seldom static let the cat out of the bag just 5 days after I did my post on niche market research with Google trends. Using a not so unlikely source, and one I have been using to do exactly the same. You may scoff laugh or ask your self what we’re smoking. But when you really get it, you’ll be in a better position to position yourself in front of the traffic.

Alot of bloggers and web masters alike are always chasing traffic, buying traffic, or just plain trying to get more traffic. It is the life blood and currency of our business. With out targeted traffic you are just another voice in the wilderness. And making money blogging or branding yourself and branding your business becomes just that much more difficult.

So lets have a look at what we’re both talking about in a little more detail.

I first got the power of Oprah about a little while ago after my girlfriend Forced me to watch an episode with her.

It was about Mom who make Millions.

This made me RUN to my computer. The work at home mom market is Huge and she was tapping this market for all it was worth. SO I quickly Posted about work at home moms who made millions. More specifically The jibbitz founder. And what were my results?.

I wanted to see if I could jump on this traffic quick so I didn’t even wait till the end of the clip I had my girlfriend PVR it so I could watch afterwards.

At the time as you can figure from the picture I was page one for Jibbitz, Not the case now though. WHICH IS WHY YOU WANT TO GET IN FIRST.

After I made that post I went and checked google trends to see what the traffic was like for Jibbitz (wish I had screen shotted it) but it was more or less nothing. I knew after oprah mentioned it it would spike.

And was I right. That huge spike in traffic you see there is a direct result of the Oprah show in February.

Go check the results for yourself, you’ll also notice something interesting as well, where the majority of the traffic is from Chicago.

Where is The Oprah show located, you got it Chicago.

So if you’re in Chicago you have a leg up with this tool.

But this is the power of Oprah Winfrey, She can drive traffic like crazy and move markets.

So how do you monopolize this to your benefit.

Go to oprah.com and check out what the upcoming shows are for next week. Next show is Monday so you have some time to get your posts carefully crafted and poised to get yourself in front of the wave.

The next episode is in the weight loss and dieting niche. Isn’t Oprah smart?

I can almost guarantee that if you follow this method you’ll be way in front of the herd and one page one if you use it correctly.

Remember from the example above I went after the jibbitz name and crocs and I got major traffic and page one for a short time anyways for the term jibbitz.

Now to shed little more light on what Seldom static mentioned in his post.

“Last week on Oprah, a topic of conversation on the June 6th show was the Implicit Association Test (see related resources). Hmm… it just so happens the number one hot search trend for the day was “iat test“. Coincidence?”

 No coincidence at all I would say.

Look at the screen shot for proof. That’s how Oprah affects Search trends.

Oprah has the unique ability and the fact that she has expertly branded her self as a trusted resource and expert in her field.

To command people to action.

So when she says something people trust that it is almost gospel and go check it out.

The power in what Oprah does is all based on word of mouth marketing, Or viral marketing for those of you how like to coin IM terminology
