Thirty Day Challenge

A day late, I’m going through the materials of the Thirty Day Challenge as well as the Pre-Season Materials. I’d like to learn more about Internet traffic and this looks like a nice program to follow. I’m concerned though, that my mission might not lend itself to a model that revolves around conversions. The only conversion that makes sense for me is a comment that is not subsequently moderated. That would be evidence of community.

What to Call New Orleans Stories?

I’m thinking about having a daily post called New Orleans Stories at Think New Orleans. It would be an update in the style of the Rojo update. A sentance and a link. Because most of the outlets here want you to stay in their website, my offering will be unique for New Orleans. At first I thought Crescent City Stories, but I want the Google Juice that comes from New Orleans. Who searches for Crescents? What other word matters? New Orleans Recovery? New Orleans Neighborhoods? Does it matter at all, so long as New Orleans is part of it? One would assume bost the ranking for any search that includes New Orleans, like, New Orleans Recovery School District. Of course, the best SEO rule to follow is to just be explicit.
