Keywords are the terms that people use when trying to find what they are looking for on the internet. This site is a Squarespace site, and one of the features Squarespace provides, along with ready-made templates and hosting and comprehensive analysis of your traffic, is a list of the keywords that people use to find your site. As a rule, these words tend to be a surprise, never quite aligning with the terms you, as site creator, thought people would use when you first tried to guess them.
As of this morning, the keywords people used over the last week to find this site, whether they were looking for something like it or something else, were, in order of use:
- architectural rendering
- watercolor techniques
- architectural renderings
- architectural rendering techniques
- watercolor rendering techniques
- pen and ink techniques
- watercolor rendering
- watercolor techniques
- architectural sketches
- watercolor rendering techniques
- watercolor techniques
- architectural watercolor rendering techniques
- pen techniques
- different watercolor techniques in rendering
- architectural sketching
- pen and ink
- sketching techniques
- architectural rendering in watercolor
- rendering watercolor
You get the idea. Actually that's not too bad. A few weeks ago one of the terms was "movable hot tub," so this week's visitors are a little more focused.
I don't pretent to understand how the search engine crawlers that comb the internet every night make a distinction between authentic use of keywords (aka "white hat" search engine optimization or SEO), and the so-called "black hat" use of keywords (such as I am ironically attempting to practice here) but somehow they do, and part of that has to do with pictures (and captions, believe it or not) that relate to the keywords, so I'll attach some of those now and just say goodbye until next time, and thanks for reading this.
