Normally i don’t write for traffic, but this week, two of my posts will be ‘made for traffic’ posts. It’s not so much the fact i’m desperate for more traffic, it’s just experimenting with what people want and what sort of stuff is of interest to them.
That doesn’t mean the posts will be poor quality or link bait… no… it means the quality will be pretty high, higher than normal. My ’18 random ideas’ post still sends me more traffic than any other…whilst it’s nice to be getting traffic from that almost year on, it’s not nice to see the one post dominate my daily traffic 
That was a ‘made for traffic’ post…. i’ve also had several other ‘made for traffic’ posts flop. Like 50 daily annoyances for instance.
So in a bid to hit the nail on the head once again, i’ll be keeping these posts tech related and hopefully somewhat useful / informative. The reason for the double whammy of ‘made for traffic’ posts is purely experimental.
I also feel my new theme looks much more professional than my old one, so perhaps it could play a role in getting people to stick around longer…
I’ll post some screenshots of traffic, sources and RSS subscriptions towards the end of the week and we’ll see if this ‘deliberate’ approach works…
