Most of my Readers are iPhone Users, Why?

This is the last day of 2008, man did this year fly by! Since this is the last day of 2008, I have a confession to make about this blog. A majority of my readers are not internet marketers or people that want to make money online. Most of my readers are tech savy and very entertained with new technology and music, most of my readers are iPhone users!
This is a true fact, a big majority of my readership are all iphone users – interesting since this is an internet marketer’s blog. Below is a screen shot of traffic from my blog for 1 month. The top posts or top content is my sexy girl marketing video and my 3 posts about iphones.

How can sexy women and iphones be the basis of my blog! Well it is fairly simple, I have topics no one spoke about ever online, which gives me a huge benefit from SERPS. The top 5 content on my blog are also the most linked and they are linked from an iphone or electronic type blog or website. This is very interesting me to since, I would like my readers to be internet marketers. But then I tried to make several posts that no one talked about on my blog and hope to get in the SERPS quickly, fail.
It seems my iphone posts provided great information that I rank #1 for several variations of ‘iphone and Google’ type keywords. But how was I able to do it? How was I able to get ranked quickly and found on the internet? I want to thank quick bookmarking, Google spiders, and conversation marketing. These got my blog pretty high in the blogosphere.
First you definitely need content that is unique, when I found a problem it takes foreever for me to find a solution. To help others from this frustration, I just created a post on how I did it and bam the traffic just started flowing in the next day! How? Getting index quickly is key!
Aside from content you need to get indexed, getting index is really easy, just bookmark your post to popular bookmarking websites. These websites are always spidered daily because of new content being added on a regular basis, once it is bookmarked your site gets spidered and indexed!
The next part is the keyword density of the post. It was not in my mind to target iphone + google related keywords, I just typed and wrote what was on my mind. But the amount of keywords and type of keywords does play a role into the serps. You can’t just blow up your post with your targeted keywords and hope you will get ranked, why not get ranked for different variations!
This blog’s readerships is base on keyword targeting, which gets me in the SERPS at top 5 results. I am happy with it but I would like to get some of my business marketing posts top 5 as well, =P. But I am happy with it. For 2009, I will be trying to get this blog up to par and get more internet marketing traffic to it from marketing readers!
Just wanted to let you guys know the truth about this blog, but traffic is traffic – right?




hi ian
a couple of important points. it is pretty clear most people are looking for sex, google, and iphone related topics. i would focus on serving up products related around those topics. duh! the demand is definitely not there related around internet marketing. sorry but google is the internet traffic cop. my sites have grown 300% since last year since i focused on more popular topics. pretty potent gold nugget if you ask me. as apple has now made the ipod touch voice phone enabled, you can expect iphone to mushroom in demands. any smart netpreneur will focus on those products/services via the stellar 3rd party apps coming. just my worthless 2 cents as usual. as for the future of affilate marketing, i don’t see it working as most products are kind of spammy and risky to deal with. also, what time frame were these stats taken for? as usual, i love your daily blog ian. keep it up and happy new year
I am not one myself. I hate just having the same thing as other people have. And everyone seems to have this.
Ian, I would not take this as a bad thing, I actually think it is a good thing. If most of your readers are visiting your site from their phone, it is more likely for other people that they are with to be viewing your site and this brings in more visitors to your site
I’ve yet to experience the problem of having too many visitors, but I’ll agree with you that it is annoying when most visitors come for something other than your main content.
Ian, I noticed the exact same thing on my blog. It always seems like the obscure, slightly off-topic posts get the most traffic and rank the best.
It’s all about diversifying your blog posts and going for the longtail keywords.
I thought iphone is nice but nokia and sony ericson was better for me.
Hi Ian, I am one of your readers (I regularly check your site but I seldom post comments). This time, I’m going to comment because I’m an iPhone user, too! So, upon reading the title, it made me smile and think, “How did you know?”…because you are right, I guess most of us your readers are indeed iPhone users.
Anyway, I’m happy to know that your site has many readers, it just shows that your articles are really interesting to read…Well, keep it up and I’m hoping to read more of your great articles.
I’m happy to know that your site has many readers
