- T2_t2 11y agoSEO is not really the best bet. SEO is for when you have a clear way to find something - e.g. "buy iphone 6". I don't many people search for a site like this. The traffic landscape has changed. I have a client that generates 40% of their traffic from Mobile Facebook - as in m.facbook.com not the usually, desktop version - essentially from public transport pre/post work and at lunch. For a site without a clear SEO term, the best bet is Social Media. That takes time, and luck more than anything, but without a clear SEO hook, is unfortunately the best option. Thankfully, a lot of eh work for SEO is the same as for SM. what you need to make it work is: 1. Actual content - currently you have virtually none. Get a blog, summarise the best rants of the day. 2. Some sort of validation - karma is a good example of a means of encouraging people to come back, and a leaderboard is really helpful.
