Hi All! I am George Pierce, this post is about how you can cash in on TRENDS, Holidays, Events,
Trending News, Trending Topics, etc.
WHY Bother?
Search volume! When you tap into or siphon traffic in this way, the idea is that there is so much search
volume, that there is some for everyone.
96 MILLION!
For example, the keyword phrase 'Star Wars' gets 96 MILLION searches per month on YT.
It is quite easy to research the trend based on your keyword phrase,
in the case of Star Wars, your possibilities are almost endless. Create an article and/or video with CTAs and links
to your site. This is a strategy that seems to work best with site links vs. squeeze page links.
May The 4th Be With YOU! This is a 100-year-old silent film classic!
Although you and I can not use Star Wars video content and images due to copyright, we can use
knockoff images and sci-fi videos and clips from sites such as Pixabay to enhance our content.
Holidays!
Holidays alone are huge when using this strategy. Your content becomes cumulative.
TIP:
Build your first articles and video around "The History Of"...Star Wars, Mother's Day, New Year's, etc.
Find a keyword phrase and build "The History Of" around it.
The keyword phrase 'Mother's Day' gets over 43 MILLION searches monthly on YT and scores Fair
on Keyword Explorer, a free research tool (Chrome extension).
Phrases such as 'What to get for your mom on Mother's Day' score excellent.
Be an EARLY BIRD.
Post or publish your content early, not at the last minute. As you can see above, the phrase
Mother's Day has a growing search volume, so post early.
For articles and videos about Christmas, the first of October or earlier is
a good target date.
GO EASY!
This strategy is truly effective, but IMO, it is a bit of a gray hat marketing strategy,
sort of bait and switch. It seems to work best when you focus on the bait and soft pedal
the switch. In other words, put a little extra effort into your content, giving your visitors
as much value as you can. Create links and CTAs that are laid back, casual, and informal,
and, as mentioned, send your prospects to your website rather than a squeeze page.
Thank you for reading.
Much success,
George Pierce
