SEO Advice

As i promised to KissKara, I'd post some info on good SEO practices.

Here we go:

Being indexed by Google is a huge deal that can bring a lot of traffic to your site by people simply Googling some of the words that your site has. In order to be indexed by google properly and to have your site appearing on the first search result pages you will have to make sure that you are doing  all of the following:

 - Your videos and archived shows should have proper long titles (i.e. Having fun on Friday before going to bed)

- All your videos/photos/shows should have proper long descriptions (i.e This week was so exhausting, had to work a lot and my dog hurt his tail so I had to take him to a vet. But it’s all over now and I’ve decided to have some Friday fun before going to bed)

- Make sure that your titles and descriptions are different and don’t overlap.

- Tag your content properly – all tags are useful and help your members find you. Ask yourself – what would you type in the search bar to find your video/photos – type what you came up with into “tags”.

- Make sure to mention any holiday if you are publishing in that specific day (i.e. Memorial Day fun)

- Mention any items that are being used/displayed in the content (i.e. If you shooting just fun pics with a finishing rod you can title that photoset: Let’s go Fishing)

- Make sure to write blog posts often, as those are being indexed as well. You can simply describe your day or post on some specific topic or make a poll for your members. This will not only keep your existing fans entertained, but will also increase your rank with Google.

- Make sure to properly fill “About Me” page as it not only helps new sign ups, but also improves indexing and ranking

So bottom line is that all the texts from your site are being indexed by Google, and the more different words and phrases there are the easier it is to find your site in Google, which is of course a whole new flow of the traffic for your site. Remember this good saying – text is engine food: feed search engines well if you want more visitors.

  • great SEO tips :)
  • thanks 
  • how do we know if its a good seo? idk anything about it
  • SEO means Search Engine Optimisation - think of it as ways to make it easier for search engines to give links to your site to surfers who are looking for something. Text is search engine food, so if you write titles, descriptions, tags and blog posts for your site keeping in mind that these words are what the search engine will serve your potential customers, this will greatly help in getting organic search engine traffic for your site.
  • youre too good thank you :)

    Hello, I'm an affiliate partner of ModelCentro. Stumbled upon this and figured there's a couple things I could add:

    You forgot linkbuilding. Google looks at links to your site as "internet votes". In theory, people are only going to link to good, relevant content. This gets manipulated by SEOs, but it still works.

    Linkbuilding is tough in the adult niche. Even though porn is the most popular thing on the internet, people don't link to their favorite porn videos like they do news, current events, celebrity gossip, ect. Luckily camgirls and models have an edge over the rest of the adult industry, as there's tons of model directory sites and many camming networks and other sites let their models link to personal websites.

    Google values the number of websites linking in more than they do the number of links from a single website (with other factors in place, it's not *THAT* simple). A Good strategy you can do right here in this community is reach out to other ModelCentro members and do a little link exchange; make a "Check out my friend %MODELNAME%" post and have them do the same. Instant backlink from a new domain for both models. Win-win.

    Search engines also look at the highlighted text to get an idea of what the site / webpage is about. So instead of; "Click Here" you want something like "%MODELNAME% - Hottest Camming Model Ever", you also want to change it up to help boost up rankings for different phrases.

    Internal linking works the same way. Everytime Google discovers a new webpage, a tiny, pathetic amount of "PageRank" (the magical mystical ranking power of Google) is brought into this world and attributed to that page. Immediately the PageRank starts flowing to other pages of the site via internal links, and once again search engines look at the anchor text (highlighted words in the link) to help determine what the page is about.

    So, as per what Natalie said, blog often and with each blog, try to work with the keywords to target different search phrases. Inside those blog posts, use internal links to link from post to post to help spread the PageRank around and get the bonus from the link anchor text.

    A great feature request would actually be a "related post" type feature, using the blog post title as the link anchortext. This would allow ModelCentro models to accidently practice good onsite SEO and internal linking.

    I've had great luck boosting the rankings on targeted keywords on specific pages solely through internal linking and a completely onsite approach. It takes time, but when going for a competitive and high converting search term it's definitely worth it.

    If you're uploading photos for blogs, image names and meta data is important. Always rename your images before uploading and make sure it's in a format search engines like. That means no caps, words separated by '-'. Example; "young-petite-girl-flashing-boobs.png". Not only does this help in image search, but it's also an onsite signal for the actual Google search as well.

    Here's a list of sites models can use for linkbuilding and here's a post on SEO that I tailored to the camming industry. If anyone has SEO related questions, feel free to reach out via the contact form on that site or send me a message on this forum (I'm assuming I'll receive an email notification). When I'm not on some crazy multi-day rivertrip I'm fairly responsive.

    Also, I'd highly advise checking out Moz's Whiteboard Friday. Moz has reversed engineered Google to 70% accuracy and probably knows more about Google's algorithm than any other SEO firm out there. For how complex SEO is, Rand does a great job at simplifying it so that most people brand new to SEO can follow after learning all the jargon (PageRank, Linkjuice, onsite SEO, offsite SEO, ect.)

    Hope that helps and I hope I didn't get too complicated with things.


    [EDIT] I would also highly suggest a custom domain name. They usually run around $10-$15 per year (well worth the investment) and WHOIS protection (YOU WANT THIS - PRIVACY REASONS!) is only an additional $10-$15 annually. Search engines typically prefer the main website over a subdomain. That doesn't mean that you can't SEO a subdomain though. Looks more professional, too.
  • This is so helpful! Thank you so much! I knew a little about SEO but this has really helped me. 
  • @FastBHMoney thank you, thank you, thank you! Very helpful!
  • I have a question, I have been in touch with a company that will do the SEO for me on my site here, so Im trying to figure out 
    1. Is this possible with these sites to actually perform an SEO in them, I had a regular website prior and we worked on SEO on the back end but here its more like a skin/myspeace/ format for us to use. 
    So is this something I should invest in for the site here, because there is no back end that we can see ourselves.
    2. When we add our own meta tags and stuff is that the same as the SEO that a pro would perform on my site to help with my google ranking searches??
    Thanks you

  • Hey @KC, we do automate things for you to save time, however, all the Titles and Discriptions are optimized for SEO, so it's similar in that way. Tags are mostly used for sorting although they do get crawled as well.
  • @KC Shoot them an email and ask them if their primary focus is onsite or offsite optimization.

    If it's offsite (linkbuilding) then it's something that would benefit the SEO of your site, regardless of what platform it was built on.

    If it's onsite optimization, it depends whether it's content curation (blogging, ect) or just tweaking onsite elements (header text, url structure, meta, ect.)
