an: my weakness is camgirl/camboy fics and I already want to write a part two. take a shot every time I use the three c’s cum clit cock feedback appreciated :)) [m.list]

this is a part of my mini kinktober event check out the other fics! [dumdums m.list]

beomgyu remembers when he found your stream for the first time. The cam website had you listed in the newcummer ranks, only a few watchers sitting in the chat when he clicked on. he usually kept to the top camgirls in the list, getting off once and then heading to bed, but he had misclicked when logging on ending up right where he needed to be all along.

The little window previewing your stream showed your pink backdrop, a million pink pillows laid out on the ground where you leaned back. He shrugged, opening your stream to see you with a wand pressed to your clothed clit, legs lifted to your chest, your back arching as you came, the strappy blue bikini straining against your tits like it would pop off at any second. It was over for him the second he heard your breathy whines, thighs shaking as you overstimulated yourself, knees pulling in before you gave a shout pulling the vibrator away. The swimsuit bottoms are completely soaked through sticking and outlining your cunt. 

Even without the wand you were trembling, head thrown back as you tried to catch your breath. And for the first time ever gyu commented in the chat dropping a donation with a single word. 

beomiebear: again.

The ding of the request was the only sound in your room, drawing you to look right at the screen for the first time. If he hadn't been gone by the sound of your pretty noises he was with your pretty face. 

“okay ill go again,” you hooked your arms under your knees, and before pressing back down on your clit you muttered, “This one's for you beomiebear,” 

beomgyu stayed up until your stream was over, cock raw from how long he had been fucking his hand, stomach covered in streams of his cum from how often he finished to the sight of you. he bookmarked your page, paid to be an exclusive member and waited for a notification that you were on live. 

The first month of following you he got used to your schedule on Wednesday, and Friday nights he would be at his desk filling your chat with requests, commenting on your beauty, dropping donations like candy leading you through the forest of your other commenters to praise him and him alone. Every stream he joined got him more and more recognition from you. A sweet, “hi beomiebear,” drawn out and giddy, your little wave and smile just for him. Other exclusive members in the chat didn’t get that voice, no, it was reserved for beomgyu and beomgyu alone. Even as you grew higher in the ranks and more people started joining your little army you always greeted beomiebear. He was the longest standing member in chat, donated the most, requested things he could tell you liked just by the way you sounded. 

When you listed a wishlist for items to be sent to you, if the gift was from beomiebear you didn’t just mention the one time you wore it but every time after, “You remember this one don’t you? It was a gift from beomiebear,” your fingers snapping the waistband of the pink thong you wore, “beomie says he loves me in pink, do you guys agree?” 

Your streams were everything to him, even if he was on a trip or out late when you started a stream he was in the bathroom of a bar jerking off like it was the first time he ever saw you, he's trying to stifle his moans in hotel rooms, cumming hard with your name on his lips. he was there for your streams when you just got ready, always in your tiny little tank top nipples peddled, treating the camera like a facetime call. Asking the chat what you should wear, holding up options. His favorite part is always at the end when you put on your lipstick and then go on to fix up your hair, spinning in your outfit asking if you looked pretty. He never missed an opportunity to shower you with love. 

And when you did an event for reaching your goal sub count you promised the highest donator a fleshlight, two used pairs of panties, and a personal video of you cumming in one of them. beomgyu was the winner by a landslide. “and who would have guessed that beomiebear was the winner? I'm not surprised my beomiebear is obsessed with me,” it was the same time that you set up personal chat offers for long-time members and no one had been watching as long as gyu had. 

you: Do you want me to use your real name in my video for you?

But gyu loved that you called him by his screen name, anyone else he had ever had sex with only called him beomgyu and you were so much more than just casual even if you had never met in person. 

beomiebear: No, I like it when you call me beomiebear or even just beomie or bear. 

Once beomgyu got his video he watched it on the days you didn’t stream, playing it over and over until he had each word memorized. 

“I picked these out just for you,” your hands running over the bubble gum pink panties you wore, “you’re going to have to tell me if you like them. and then these,” you held up that strappy blue swimsuit, “I know I said two panties but these were from the first stream you joined, so that means I wore them the first time you made me cum,” 

just the fact you remembered made him hard. and when you pulled out the fleshlight you got him, unboxing it to show it off, “now it's not wet unlike how I am right now but I'm sure you'll get it wet enough,” your fingers running over the silicone, slipping your middle and ring finger in the hole before taking them out and putting them into your mouth, “I wish I could lick this clean after you had used it,” you pout, “I know you must taste so good,” you kissed over the puffy lips before asking, “you’ll think of me when you use it right?” 

You had him wrapped so tight about your little finger that he was nodding and answering to a screen knowing damn well you couldn't hear him.

When his package came in he was shaking with need, straining in his jeans ripping open the box, groaning over the smell of you. You didn’t only send the things promised, you tossed in an extra pair of panties, sprayed with your perfume, and a little bear and lollipop phone charm. A note card handwritten for him saying ‘for my beomiebear, don’t forget to give your new toy clitty kisses before fucking it and filling it up while thinking of me <33’ and did he listen, kissing over where he knew your lips had been before sending it, fucking it until he was so drained he was amazed at how much cum could leave his body. Your panties pressed to his nose, phone charm hanging from his case. 

You were right about him being obsessed with you and neither of you would have it any other way. and you were no different. Seeing beomiebear's name in the chat or donating would never stop you from smiling. He was one of the first people to support you on live, calling out bad behavior in chat, and calling you the prettiest names. When beomie was active you were putting on your best show. You felt the prettiest when beomiebear was watching and commenting. You picked out outfits you knew beomie would like and couldn't help but think about how he must look behind his keyboard at home.

You've never seen beomie but that didn’t mean that you weren't obsessed with the idea of him just like he was obsessed with the idea of you. Sometimes after a stream when beomie would go to your private chat complimenting you and saying goodnight you were laid out in bed giggling and kicking your feet, blushing and smiling acting as if you've never had a boyfriend before in your life. No man had ever made you this giddy in real life and no one else from your streams compared. 

You remember finding the little phone charm when you were on vacation smiling like a madman just thinking about beomiebear so you bought it. You wouldn't be able to forget the cute little bear or the lolly pop, beomiebear, and his bubblegum princess in pink. Always wondered if he had put it to use or if it was sitting in his nightstand with your panties. 

Tonight you set up your stream for a get ready with me, fingers rolling over your nipples to get them hard, “Hi! Tonight is just going to be a short stream, it feels like forever since I've been on but it's been only one day,” your eyes scan over chat, welcoming the users who tip or the ones you've seen before. These streams never did as well as the ones with you masturbating but they did bring in long-term tippers, the ones who requested private texts and videos often. “I'm going out tonight so I need help to make sure I look good, do you think you could help me decide on a few things?” 

Your setup is in your spare room, the one space that made you sign for your apartment as soon as you saw it. Your backdrop is set up right along the back wall, a bed set up lengthwise along the wall with all your pillows to lay down at the perfect angle for your camera. Your vanity is usually behind the camera, only used when you do streams like these, the lights setting the mood. The small closet attached to the room held anything you wore for streams, all your toys and props organized under where everything hung. Tonight you were going out with friends for drinks for a rare night out with friends. You spend most of the time commuting to class and home, and with both your cam schedule and your school schedule you didn’t go out much. And none of your friends knew your little secret and you would keep it like that as long as you possibly could. 

You held up the two options you had picked out for tonight, “maybe I should try them both on for you?” 

It then that beomies name pops up in chat and your smile brightens, “Hi beomiebear! Which one should I try first?” you were going for an angel or devil theme with the white set and the black set in hand, both of them nearly identical to each other.

beomiebear: Don’t we get to see the lingerie first?

“I didn’t even think of that beomie you’re so right. I would need your help to pick out the perfect panties for these, hmm let me see what I have,” you dig through your collection, pulling out a few options for them to pick between. “Here I have pink,” you hold them up one at a time, “white, red, and black. If I wear the white skirt I don’t know if I'll be able to wear the red but why don’t we see?” 

Your top half was mostly in frame as you changed your panties but stepping closer to the bed you could see more of your body in the viewfinder. Picking up the white skirt to pull it on, purposefully tugging it up higher. “see what I mean everyone would be able to see, especially if I bend over,” you demonstrate leaning over the bed and looking over your shoulder as you wiggle your hips. 

beomgyu is sitting in his apartment biting his lip trying to decide if he should touch himself when he has to be ready in an hour to leave for drinks with his friends. Debating if the clean up is worth it but knowing that if he doesn't get off at least once he will be fighting a boner for a while. He watches as you pick up the next pair of panties to try, you’re standing in front of the camera tugging your skirt down enough so that when you take off the red pair the camera doesn't pick it up, but as you tug on the white lace and bend back over the bed he gives up on resisting. The material is just sheer enough to show the outline of your cunt and as you sway your hips asking if these are better the fabric slips along your lips. there is no way he is not touching himself now. “oops,” you giggle fixing the lace so that it sits right again, “maybe not these, don’t want anyone else seeing what is only meant for my angels,” 

you stand back up, “You know what I think the black skirt is better,” you slide the white skirt off leaving you back in your tiny cropped tank and lace panties before sliding up the black skirt, “okay but now the white is too showy,” you bend again, “what should I pick next the black or the pink?” gyu is fast to respond, “okay beomie says pink so I think we have to try that one next,” and gyu doesn't know what happens to him when he sees you wear pink only that he's whimpering with his hand down his sweats picking up his pace as he squeezes his cock. When you bend doing your little wiggle he knows he's the one who sent these to you from your wishlist, that alone makes him cum. His head falls back against the headboard, not caring about the mess anymore when you’re there taking your top off, pushing down on your boobs with your arm to hide giggling about not wanting to wear a bra tonight. Your bare back to the camera as you pull on your new top. 

By the end of your stream, he was cutting it close to making it out on time to meet up with everyone. But when he got to the bar they had saved him a seat at their booth half taken up with his friends and half taken up with yours. 

You were half squished between your friend and soobin, feeling claustrophobic amongst the group. soobin and you have an econ class together along with another friend at the table. He had invited the two of you out a couple of times but it was always on a Friday and you always made the most of Friday nights. But he had asked to celebrate the end of the semester pointing out everyone else was going so you agreed wanting to finally get out even if it was only the one time. So far all of his friends were nice, picking up conversation easily and adding everyone in like they had been besties for years. gyu didn’t even realize it was you at the table until you lifted your head at yeonjuns loud, “Look who finally made it!” 

beomgyu had only just seen you on his screen, putting on lipstick and blowing a kiss to your chat before logging off, he felt like he was hallucinating but he didn’t want to get caught staring. He tried to keep his features blank, avoiding spending too much time looking at you when he nodded a short greeting to everyone. he wasn't fully convinced it was you until soobin was introducing your side of the table, “And this is gyu,” 

your smile was the barest reaction he had ever seen you give, “Hi gyu,” so unlike the way you look when you call him beomie. he sat on the other side of soobin as the others continued their conversation. His hands were slick with sweat as he discreetly pulled out his phone pulling up your private chat, he had messaged you after stream like he usually did complimenting you, your sweet reply always going straight to his heart. He typed out a message for you clicking his phone off and letting it sit in his lap as he watched you pick yours up. 

beomiebear: I hope you’re thinking of me while you’re dressed that pretty tonight don’t need you forgetting me. 

beomgyu was trying not to make it obvious he was watching you as your face lit up typing before clicking your phone off. In his lap, his buzzed and he knew it was you. That little smile gave away more than anything else. 

you: There is no way I could forget about you when I'm always thinking about you <3

And as much as beomgyu wants to talk to you he's completely scared shitless. 

He feels like the second you two lock eyes you'll know he knows you’re a cam girl. That you'll feel weird once you know he's watched you get off for what feels like forever. Not even that he just watched but he's gotten off more times than he can count from watching you. that not even two hours ago he was fucking his hand wishing it was you and you had only been changing. He wouldn't be able to take it if you ignored him, stopped answering his messages, and smiled at his user. So he bit his tongue and sat back.

beomgyu didn’t think he would have a problem acting normal but when your friend dragged you out onto the dance floor it was almost painful not to watch you. the way your body was moving drawing him in without him noticing he was stuck on you until soobin bumped his shoulder, “just talk to her,” 

“w-what no,” he stumbled, waving away the suggestion, “she wouldn't- I'm not-“ his heart was beating so hard he's sure any more attention brought to him would give him away. 

“I will if you don’t,” gyu gave the deadliest glance, it was the last thing he ever wanted to think about, his friend and you together when it should be him. soobin chuckled, “I'm kidding I like her friend but it proves my point on why you should speak up,” 

beomgyu bit the inside of his cheek before muttering, “I'm getting another drink,” 

and that's where you found him at the bar. He was checking the time on his phone waiting for his drink when you popped up next to him leaning over the bartop waving over the bartender. Not even noticing he was from your group until the bartender walked right past ignoring you. gyu went stiff, placing his phone face down on the counter when you spoke up, “gyu right?” 

“Yeah,” he absentmindedly starts to play with the charm on his phone, flicking the lollipop. He knows you've never seen him, that you wouldn't know him in the way he knows you. Every shared glance feels as if you will just know it's him, like his username is written on his forehead that if you paid enough attention would be visible to only you. He could feel a pit in his stomach, a brewing mix of embarrassment and need. If he wasn't worried you would freak out he wanted to get to know you like he would any other girl in the bar. Ask you to dance, get you a drink, flirt until the sun comes up; he wanted you to like him, feel something for him even if it was a fraction of what he felt for you. 

“how do you know soobin?” you ask just trying to make conversation as you wait for another bartender to pass. 

“we're childhood friends and we roomed together our first year,” he flicks the charm again, looking over at the glasses lining the wall in front of the two of you, missing the way you looked down at what he was messing with. 

You could feel your heart in your ears at seeing the charm on his phone, the instant realization almost blinding. Your silence is what makes gyu look back at you, both of you looking at eachother like you saw a ghost. The two of you jumped out of your skin when Yeonjun and Kai came up behind gyu to say goodbye. 

“beomgyu were leaving,” and if Kai hadn't said his name at that exact moment you could have written it off. Anyone could be beomiebear it didn’t have to be gyu but mixed with the phone charm at that exact moment you couldn't have missed it. 

“o-okay,” beomgyu had to clear his throat to get the words out. the final nail in the coffin was when Yeonjun ruffled gyus hair as a salute not knowing he was leaving the two of you in a puddle of nerves after saying, “Bye beomie,” 

Even if it's a packed room, the only thing you can see is gyu in front of you. you had always dreaded the day when you would meet a member outside of chat, the possibility so much higher with your face uncovered. Now you were face to face with someone you had proof watched almost every single one of your streams. “so… is it going to be really uncomfortable now?” 

“I didn’t want to make you uncomfortable at all. I wasn't going to say anything,” beomgyu feels like he's rambling, grasping for straws to try to right the situation. You can see the panic on his face, the same face you're re-examining with your new clarity. A deep blush is set across his cheeks, his brows pinched in worry. 

“no it's okay I'm more shocked than uncomfortable,” you try to laugh it off, finger brushing over the little bear charm. “Happy to put a face to the name, you’re way cuter than I imagined,” 

beomgyu could feel warmth all over his body at the compliment, a soft smile showing itself. “you think?” it was so much better in person to hear you say nice things, to know it was meant for him alone. 

you give a soft chuckle waving, “Do you want to dance with me? I don’t think the bartender cares about us at this point,” 

“o-okay,” 

beomgyu couldn't believe you were here, the two of you are so close now that beomgyu can smell your perfume, making his cock so much harder remembering your panties pressed to his face, aided now by the way you were grinding back on him. he had a hard time putting his hands on you in the first place, you have to guide him to grab your waist. But as the night went on he was finding it easier and easier to let his hands roam wherever you let him. 

It felt as if you've known him for so long, everything falling into place as if you've always known each other, like that first stream was a first date and you haven't been apart since. If it had been anyone else you think you would have gone straight home and locked yourself away, with beomiebear, with beomgyu, you felt as if you could lock the two of you in a room and never leave. Because even if he had been behind the screen he still had picked up on the way you liked things. 

You turned wrapping your arms around his neck and pulling him closer to your mouth, “it's getting late,” 

“I don’t wanna go,” he confessed not caring if you could feel his erection pressed against you, he wanted to stay with you not see you go. 

“You don’t want to go home with me?” if you could push yourself any closer you would just to make your point, “Because something tells me you really do,” 

beomgyus mouth is dry, trying and failing to come up with words that won't seem too needy because all he wants to do is beg. he would have you right here if he could, right in the back of the uber you called to pick the two of you up. He's never been so nervous to be with anyone before, even his first time he was less needy and more confident. What breaks him is when you get to your apartment, when you push open the door to your spare room and he sees that pink bed from your background, moody lights and all. He moans at the thought of all the times he's seen you spread out on those very pillows with your hand between your thighs. The white skirt and panties you didn’t wear were still on the floor. “are you really wearing the panties I picked out?” his voice was caught in his throat, not at all how he wanted it to come off. But you just smile from the doorway, no one has ever been in here with you before and it gives you butterflies.

“Why don’t you find out for yourself?” you ask, sliding your hands up his chest and around his neck. 

He's slow to kiss you, the soft tentative nature of his kiss unlike how you thought he would be. He was being so gentle, taking his time with you, exploring the way you two fit together. His hands at your waist pulling you into him, kissing you breathless. beomgyu could make out with you forever, making every effort to know you inside and out. one hand sliding down the curve of your ass, pushing your shirt up until he was feeling the lace of your panties, groaning into your kiss. “do you-,” he can’t even pull himself away from you, pressing himself closer, coming back to your mouth like it was the source, “do you think-“

you have to pull away giggling. “it's okay beomgyu I'll still kiss you after you ask your question,” he's nodding like he understands, nose brushing against yours as he tries to latch back onto your mouth. 

“Do you think I could watch you?” those puppy dog eyes working wonders on your stomach, ���please,”

“only if I get to see what it looks like on the other side of the screen,” you reach down to cup him over his jeans, “it's only fair,” beomgyu has never been so noisy in his life, whimpering as you feel him up, wanting to thrust into the air when you pull away. “Do you want me to use a toy?” 

he's nodding his head watching you pull open your closet door, the drawer you pull open overstocked with everything he's ever seen you use in a stream, even things he hasn't seen you use yet. He's almost a little shocked at the sight of all the options to choose from, mind filtering through every reaction he can remember you having with each one, needing to see your lashes flutter. It's when he sees the wand toy from the first stream he attended that he knows there was never another option for him. 

beomgyu sits on your vanity chair, leaning back against the cushion to get the perfect angle to watch you. The nerves were new for you, even the first few streams you had done you had been able to overlook the feeling because you were just alone in the room and no one really watched. Now you were actively being seen because even if the chat was running it was almost always positive comments that boosted your ego. Even other partners hadn't stepped into the space and maybe that's what was making it worse, you didn’t want to disappoint, but as you laid back on the pillows all stacked up to keep you slightly upright and looked at beomgyu it all faded away. He was watching you like he was seconds away from devouring you, that needy crease to his brow, the hem of his shirt rolled up just enough to show off his navel and waistband of his underwear. 

You lifted your knees to your chest using your arm to help keep them up, the way you were folded made your panties tighten against your cunt, the wet outline making gyus mouth water. He popped the button of his jeans, zipping down the zipper, to give him some release. You clicked on the vibrator, the hum the only sound in the room as you pressed it over your clit. Your reaction was instant, hips jerking and lashes fluttering. You could see the way beomgyus breathing increased, his hand pushed into his pants, lip between his teeth to keep his moans quiet. 

“I want to hear you,” you gasp, “I need to hear you,” 

beomgyu nods adam's apple bobbing, the breathy whimpers taking up all of the space in your mind until he pulls down his pants. His cock is heavy as it slaps against his stomach, beomgyu works fast to take off his shirt not caring where it lands as you focus in on every vein on his shaft. He's already so leaky, all his precum aiding his strokes. The visual of watching his hand working himself drives you insane, your imagination running wild as his hand pumps up and down stopping right at the flared tip, picturing exactly what it would feel like when he pushes into you. Your orgasm comes crashing down on you, the pretty sounds coming from your mouth alone have beomgyu following right after, both of you locking eyes across the room as you try to come down from your high. gyus stomach is covered in streaks of his cum, sliding down with every breath he takes. You click off the wand not wanting to overstimulate yourself letting it fall in the pillows next to you.

Your panties are completely soaked as you push them down, strings of wetness still clinging to the fabric. You toss them over to beomgyu who's eager to catch them, cleaning up the mess he's made only to wrap them around his still-hard cock, letting your combined cum work as more lube for his slow pumps. “Your cock is so pretty beomie, does it put the gift I gave you to good use?” 

beomgyus thrusts up into his hand at the nickname, “Yes, I-I make sure to give it clitty kisses just like you told me,” 

you run your fingers through your slick folds spreading your legs wider to give him a better view, “are you going to give me clitty kisses before you fuck me?” beomgyu has to pull his hand away from himself before he came again at the question. He had dreamed of tasting you; getting lost between your thighs. He dropped your panties making his way to kneel in front of you on the bed. You still had your shirt and skirt on and he helped take both of them off before hooking your knees over his shoulders. As much as he has seen your pussy on screen nothing beats in person, your swollen clit covered in your slick, his head framed by your thighs. beomgyu is licking his lips as you brush your fingers through his hair, pushing the strands behind his ears, his eyes flickering up to yours as he wraps his hands around your thighs to keep you still. “how is it that you look this edible?”

you roll your hips, the heels of your feet pushing into his back, “just get to eating me,” 

his lips ghost over your clit, your whimper drawing him closer, soft kisses dusting over every part of your pussy. You have to tighten your hold on his hair, pushing him to your clit to get him to move past all his teasing. beomgyu moans at the taste of you, the vibrations aiding his work on your clit. If he could spend the rest of the night between your legs overstimulating you he would. Every sound and movement in reaction to the way he's making you feel fuling him on. He's messy as he buries his face into you, all of your wetness gathered on his tongue as he circles your bundle of nerves, sucking deeply making you roll your head back. Your second orgasm is blinding as he presses two fingers into you, the pressure making you see spots, legs closing in around his ears. 

When beomgyu pulls away your legs feel weak when they rest back on the bed. He kisses up your stomach, loving your uneven breathing as you try to come back to reality. His mouth is all over you, tongue trialing your skin before he finds your nipples. Taking his time with each he lightly tugs them between his teeth, sucking along the delicate flesh leaving marks up and down your body. beomgyus thinking about seeing all the hickeys he's leaving on you when you stream, everyone knowing someone had their mouth on you. The thought alone has him humping into the mattress, your giggles waking him up as you run your thumb over his cheek, “who knew beomiebear would be so needy,” 

“only for you,” he confesses kissing your extended wrist, “please let me fuck you, please,” 

you don’t hesitate to let your legs fall open wider as an invitation beomgyus cock already pressed against your thigh, sticky still from earlier. “you don’t need to beg,” 

you help him guide himself to your entrance, mushroom tip pressing in enough to make you shiver, mouth opening in a silent moan at the feeling. beomgyu can’t contain his noises, eyes glued to where the two of you are connected. He pushed in further the sight of him disappearing into your cunt like a beacon he won’t look away from. He doesn’t look up to see your face until he gives one last thrust to fully knock his pelvis to yours. Your head is rolled back with that hazy fucked out expression and he’s hardly done anything at all. he rolls his hips back before pushing all the way back in your whimper tearing him apart. “you feel so fucking good,” 

beomgyu sits back on his heels dragging you with him, hands holding your hips as your back arches. The angle pushing him right against your gspot, your feet digging Into the mattress as gyu frantically picks up his pace. He guides your body down on his cock, every thrust making your boobs bounce. beomgyu is lost in the feeling, desperate whimpers escaping him, veins in his hands and arms bulging from his hold on you. 

“beomie,” the name slipping so easily, the whine making beomgyu feel like any second he would cum especially when you felt this warm, this wet. He was using you like his own personal cock sleeve focused solely on getting his cum as deep as possible into you. 

Blindly you reached out next to you for the vibrator, finding it and turning it on pressing it to your clit. beomgyu can feel his orgasm building aided by the way you’re squeezing him. Sloppily thrusting he feels the tightness in his balls, he presses as close as he can get himself to you. 

The fucked out expression on his face as his hot cum spills inside you triggers your orgasm, the wand pressed to your clit also pressed to the base of his cock overstimulating the both of you. You go to move it but beomgyu’s hand shoots out holding the vibrator in place watching the way your body convulses. Thighs trying to close in around him, your cries loud enough you know you’ll get a noise complaint. But beomgyu’s cock is still pulsing your body milking him in a way no one ever has before. 

It’s only when he sees the tears in your eyes that he pulls the wand away, switching it off and laying himself onto you. His mouth is on your neck, hammering pulse pressed to his lips as he gives you slow soft thrusts making sure you’re stuffed full of his cum. 

Your arms wrap around his shoulders, fingers curling in the sweaty strands of hair at the base of his neck. Both of you catch your breath slowly coming back to yourselves. 

When he pulls out you feel the overwhelming gush of your combined cum slipping out and down to puddle on the mattress. beomgyu sat back watching in amazement. “I’ve always wanted to see what your pussy would look like after i was done with it,” two fingers scooping up anything he could to stuff it right back in.

SEO for YouTube: How to Optimize Your Videos for Search

Meet Paul. Paul is a budding YouTuber with a passion for tech reviews and tutorials. He’s been creating content for a while, but his channel isn’t growing as quickly as he’d hoped. Paul’s videos are high-quality, informative, and engaging, yet they’re not reaching a wide audience. The key problem? His videos are not optimized for YouTube’s search algorithm. This is where SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, comes into play.

Understanding YouTube SEO

SEO for YouTube involves optimizing your videos so they rank higher in search results. Higher ranking videos get more views, which can lead to more subscribers and overall channel growth. Here’s how Paul can optimize his videos for YouTube search:

Keyword Research

Paul’s first step is to find the right keywords. Keywords are the terms and phrases that users type into the search bar when looking for videos. Paul uses tools like Google Trends, TubeBuddy, and VidIQ to identify popular keywords related to his content. For instance, if Paul’s video is about the latest iPhone review, he might discover that “iPhone 14 review,” “iPhone 14 unboxing,” and “iPhone 14 vs Samsung Galaxy S22” are popular search terms.

Optimizing Video Titles

Once Paul has his keywords, he needs to incorporate them into his video titles. A good title is clear, concise, and includes the main keyword. For example, instead of titling his video “My Thoughts on the New iPhone,” Paul titles it “iPhone 14 Review: In-Depth Look at Apple’s Latest Smartphone.” This title is more likely to match what users are searching for.

Creating Engaging Thumbnails

Thumbnails are the first thing viewers see. An eye-catching thumbnail can significantly increase click-through rates. Paul creates custom thumbnails that are visually appealing and relevant to the video content. He includes the video title or key phrases in the thumbnail to attract viewers’ attention.

Writing Detailed Descriptions

The video description is another crucial SEO element. Paul writes detailed descriptions for his videos, incorporating his main keyword and related terms naturally. He includes a brief summary of the video, timestamps for different sections, and links to his social media, website, and other relevant videos. This not only helps with SEO but also provides a better viewer experience.

Using Tags Effectively

Tags help YouTube understand the content of a video. Paul uses a mix of broad and specific tags, including his main keyword and variations of it. For his iPhone review video, he might use tags like “iPhone 14,” “iPhone review,” “Apple smartphone review,” and “tech reviews 2023.”

Engaging with Viewers

Engagement metrics like likes, comments, and watch time also influence search rankings. Paul makes an effort to engage with his audience by asking questions in his videos, responding to comments, and encouraging viewers to like and share his videos. The more engagement his videos get, the higher they are likely to rank.

Promoting Videos on Social Media

Paul doesn’t rely solely on YouTube’s search algorithm to drive traffic. He promotes his videos on social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. By sharing his videos with a broader audience, he increases the chances of getting more views and engagement.

Analyzing and Adjusting

Finally, Paul regularly reviews his analytics to understand what’s working and what’s not. He looks at metrics like watch time, click-through rates, and viewer retention. Based on this data, Paul adjusts his SEO strategy and content approach to continually improve his channel’s performance.

Conclusion

Through consistent effort and strategic optimization, Paul starts to see his videos rank higher in YouTube search results. His channel grows steadily, attracting more viewers and subscribers. By following these SEO practices, Paul not only improves his search rankings but also enhances the overall quality and reach of his content.

For any YouTuber looking to grow their channel, understanding and implementing YouTube SEO is crucial. Just like Paul, you too can optimize your videos and achieve greater success on the platform.

now dear jem why r u so angry this year over your wrapped

You see, beloved mutual, the truth of the matter is that they are pulling shit out of their ass for no reason!

Not the whole thing, for me at least, but it's specifically the sections where it tells you a month and a "phase" you had for that month that's just... wrong to me.

gonna put this under a read-more cause it might get long hold up: (it definitely got Long)

okay. yeah. hi. My top 5 songs/artists were all pretty much in order, i can verify this since i have my spotify connected to Lastfm (tracks your listens/"scrobbles" onto its own website for easily checking what you listen to the most etc etc).

(I almost forgot before this, but I must mention that a few servers I'm in have music bots that scrobble tracks listened through vc. Some of the numbers will not count on Spotify due to this, but most of my time listening was via Spotify. It changes the rankings, but not by much.)

The "Top Songs 2024" playlist is where it starts to fall apart a bit. I set up my Lastfm to show me my tracks in top listening order from Jan. 1st to Oct. 31st (about the time it collects Spotify Wrapped data)

Aaaand... my top 10, everything past the 2nd song, is out of order. I give this some leeway due to the aforementioned vc scrobbles.

(i have to splice together the Spotify screenshots since the tracks are way larger)

You see that large bulk of songs from the same album? Why does it just... not count after the 5th one? The other 4 show up separated by 3 tracks each?????

(bonus lastfm 5-21 for extra comparison)

Actually, I'm noticing now too, EVERY track from the same album has that same 3-song buffer (notice the Halloween IV tracks also being buffered above)... but why? My best guess is so that you can listen to it w/o shuffle and not get bombarded with everything from the same album at once, but I personally feel like it removes the whole point of a "Top 100" playlist, no?

Anyways... onto the "Month Phase" things.

Hey Spotify. I didn't listen to Teddy Hyde on your broken app until July? Did you just cram it in there since it kinda fits the arbitrary aesthetic? For what purpose?

What? What? What? What? It takes me 18 other artists with WAY higher numbers to even get to Da Vinci's Notebook, and that's just for April. There are a myriad of other choices it could have gone for here, but I suppose it just really wanted to play Enormous Penis in my wrapped this year. Great

Okay sure whatever man. My Weirdcore Scratch Indietronica moment. Just ignore the top 3 artists, who are all queer people. Cool. Yeah man.

Just. I dunno. It's rubbing me the wrong way. They never even mention any of the queer artists unless they had to for me. Plus, I've been hearing rumors that they've laid off a bunch of people and let AI generate the whole thing, but take that with some salt as I have no evidence besides a screenshot of a tweet that was sent to me.

All in all, I just feel like it was... incredibly lackluster this year. I think I'm out of things to say by now, but it just sucks so bad. Obviously, alongside the fact that Spotify just sucks as a platform and doesn't pay their users any sort of wage unless they're in the top 1000, but that's a discussion someone else could word way way better than I ever could.

A brief foray into the military ranks of TKEM characters…

It’s no secret that our favourite boys from the Kingdom of Corea have a history in the military - but apart from Gon being bottom of his class in the Naval Academy (as confirmed by Choi Gitae in Ep4), what else do we know? As with every tiny detail that sparks my interest in this show, I took it upon myself to find out, and gave myself a headache in the process. Let’s have a look, shall we?

Lee Jihun:

I’m starting with him because he’s the only one I could find a concrete answer for, thanks to him being from a universe very similar to ours. Though we only see him very briefly in Ep16, from that short scene we can glean a little bit of information about what he was doing:

To find his rank, one needs only to look at his epaulettes. You can see that his are black, with three gold stripes: two thick ones, with a thin stripe in the middle. This identifies his rank as follows:

He’s a Soryeong, which is the equivalent rank to a Lieutenant Commander.

However, what I find perhaps more interesting for Jihun is this badge he’s wearing:

Though it’s blurry when you zoom in, I’m pretty sure it’s this one:

You heard it here first, folks. Lee Jihun is a Navy SEAL. They didn’t have to include this detail - you’d probably have to be quite familiar with the military to recognise it straight away, and I doubt that even most Korean fans would be able to recognise it, because I can tell you for a fact that I wouldn’t be able to recognise the equivalent for my own country. Someone on the production team decided this, and I want to give them a big kiss on the mouth, because now it’s confirmed that the sweet little Jihun we saw grew up to be totally badass after his abusive father passed away. I sincerely hope that it was a good life that led him to joining this branch of the military, and not some combination of horrible factors that pushed him into joining one of the most intense and dangerous branches… hm. I’m not going to dwell on that, actually. You can all make your own conclusions here.

Now… to the Kingdom. *sigh.* This is where things start to get more vague and confusing. I’m going to start with ranks first, and then go onto what they were doing as one big section because, spoiler alert, I haven’t got any sort of concrete idea.

Lee Gon:

His rank is easiest to determine, because Choi Gitae says it explicitly when they met at his father’s funeral in Ep4. I cross-referenced this with the closed-caption Korean subtitles, and everything adds up nicely: though he’s the Commander-in-Chief of all the armed forces in the Kingdom, thanks to his position as the monarch, while he was actually serving, he rose to the rank of Daewi, or Lieutenant - the highest rank of the junior officers - before leaving the navy.

Jo Yeong:

When we see Yeong in his navy uniform in Ep6, this is what we can see:

Once again, that same pattern emerges on his epaulettes of two thick stripes surrounding a thin stripe - he’s a Soryeong, a Lieutenant Commander. This means that Yeong ranked one rank higher than Gon before he left the navy, which is something that brings me quite a lot of joy.

However, something I like even more than that is Yeong’s current title, as the leader of the Royal Guard. We all know him and love him as Captain Jo, but in Korean he’s referred to as 조영 대장 - Jo Yeong Daejang. This is what Gon calls him in the iconic “Are you having fun, Captain Jo?” and you can also see that title of Daejang on his character page on the official TKEM website. On WordReference, this is what happens if I search for 대장:

Ignoring the results about other things, it doesn’t seem to mean “Captain” explicitly, it’s more like a general kind of leader title. His rank isn’t necessarily “Captain,” it’s whatever Daejang is equivalent to. So… how good is a Daejang? Looking at the South Korean armed forces, in the army, air force, and marine corps, Daejang is equivalent to General, and in the navy, Daejang is equivalent to Admiral. To put this into context a little better, the only rank in the South Korean navy higher than Daejang is Wonsu, and this rank only exists on paper and has never been given to any officer of the South Korean armed forces. To achieve this rank of Wonsu, you’re appointed from the rank of Daejang when you have “distinguished achievements.”

In conclusion: Yeong has an incredibly high rank in the armed forces, second only really to Gon himself, assuming no one from the Kingdom has ever been appointed the rank of Wonsu either. However… there’s a first time for everything, and though I’m only speculating and of course could never say anything for sure, if anyone was going to get those distinguished achievements needed to be a Wonsu, it would be our Jo Yeong Daejang.

Choi Gitae:

I’m including him briefly because I have a bone to pick with the subtitles. In English, he’s Captain Choi. In Korean, Gon refers to him as Hamjang, which, as far as I can tell, doesn’t exist in the South Korean navy of our universe. In the Korean subtitles in Ep4, he’s named as 최 소령, Choi Soryeong, and he’s just… he’s not that. Let’s take a look at some pictures:

The epaulettes on the first picture and the star badge on the second tell us that his rank should be this:

He’s a Junjang, equivalent to a Rear Admiral (lower half). Not a Captain, and not a Lieutenant Commander. As for the Hamjang/Junjang disparity, I’m going to suggest that Hamjang is the Kingdom of Corea’s equivalent to the Republic’s Junjang.

So, what was everyone doing in the navy?

The only clue we have is a badge:

This is from Yeong’s uniform, but in Ep6 Choi Gitae was wearing the same, and Gon was wearing a gold version of it. However, for the life of me, I can’t seem to figure out what it is! The design seems to be that of a ship sailing through the waters, but that just gives ✨navy✨ in a general sense. Browsing google images, I’ve noticed the same golden badge that Gon wears on other high ranking members of the South Korean navy, so maybe it signifies a high rank? Or maybe it just means that the wearer is in the navy? I don’t know! I can’t work it out! What it tells us at least is, if Yeong isn’t wearing a “specialised” badge like Jihun… it’s unlikely that he served in any kind of special forces… which I feel is a piece of information that might break some hearts in the fandom as their headcanons shatter into pieces. I’m disappointed too, because when I saw Yeong’s badge without paying attention to any of the other characters, I thought that the two shapes on the sides looked a little like submariner dolphins, so I’ve spent half a year or so thinking that’s what Yeong did in the navy, before I realised that Gon and Choi Gitae had the exact same badge.

So, if anyone has been bothered enough to read this far and also happens to be a Korean military buff, I would love you forever if you could tell me exactly what this badge means, and whether it gives us any indication of what Yeong or Gon or anyone else was doing in the navy. However, maybe it’s good that it’s unclear, because that leaves fic writers plenty of room to wonder about what Gon and Yeong were doing in the military - whether they were doing different things, strengthening their bond as best bros doing the same thing, and if you’re on the same side of this fandom as me, whether they were repressing some big feelings at seeing each other in their military uniforms, or whether they were engaging in certain activities that are maybe stereotypical of sailors cooped together on the same boat without women to spend their nights with… there’s plenty of room for interpretation :D

This article will explore the significance of SEO for your hair salon business and provide you with valuable insights on how to leverage its benefits to increase web traffic and grow your clientele.

The Power of SEO for Hair Salons

SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is the practice of optimizing your website and online presence to rank higher in search engine results pages, such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo. A well-executed SEO strategy can benefit your hair salon in numerous ways:

Increased Visibility: Higher search engine rankings lead to increased online visibility. When potential clients search for hair salons or related services, having your salon listed on the first page of search results dramatically improves the chances of being found.

Targeted Traffic: SEO enables you to target specific keywords and phrases relevant to your business. This means that the users who discover your website are more likely to be interested in your services, which increases the conversion rate.

Credibility and Trust: Websites that appear at the top of search results are often perceived as more trustworthy and reputable. By optimizing your website, you can build trust with potential clients.

Cost-Effective Marketing: SEO can be a cost-effective marketing strategy in the long run. While it may require an initial investment, the results can be long-lasting, and you won’t have to pay for clicks or impressions like with paid advertising.

Start your SEO journey by conducting thorough keyword research. Identify the keywords and phrases potential clients use to search for hair salon services. Tools like Google Keyword Planner can help you discover high-traffic and relevant keywords. Once you have your list, naturally incorporate these keywords into your website content, including your service pages and blog posts.

2. Optimize Your Website

Your website is the digital face of your hair salon and needs to be SEO-friendly. Ensure your website is mobile-responsive, loads quickly, and has an intuitive design. Structure your website logically with clear navigation to make it easy for visitors to find the information they need.

3. Content Creation

High-quality, informative content is vital for SEO success. Regularly publish blog posts that offer valuable information related to hair care, styling, and trends. Content can include styling tips, hair care routines, product recommendations, and more. Engaging content not only attracts visitors but also keeps them on your website longer, which positively impacts your search rankings.

4. Local SEO

Given the local nature of your hair salon business, local SEO should be a top priority. Ensure your website is listed in local directories, and create a Google My Business profile. This will help your salon appear in local map results, which are often displayed prominently in search results for location-specific queries.

5. Backlinks and Online Reviews

Build a network of high-quality backlinks to your website by partnering with other local businesses or seeking guest posting opportunities. Encourage satisfied clients to leave online reviews on platforms like Google, Yelp, and Facebook. Positive reviews can improve your online reputation and positively affect your SEO.

6. Monitor and Analyze

Regularly monitor your website’s performance using tools like Google Analytics. Analyze your website traffic, user behavior, and conversion rates. This data can help you refine your SEO strategy and make informed decisions on how to improve your online presence.

In conclusion, harnessing the SEO benefits for your hair salon business can significantly impact your success in the digital age. By focusing on keyword research, website optimization, content creation, local SEO, backlinks, and regular analysis, you can attract more clients and solidify your salon’s reputation as a trusted name in the industry. SEO is a long-term investment that, when executed correctly, can bring sustained growth to your hair salon and establish your brand as a top choice for beauty and hair care services.

How to Optimize Content According to SEO: A Complete Guide for Beginners

In today's digital world, creating high-quality content is only half the battle. To ensure your content reaches its intended audience, it must be optimized for search engines. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of enhancing your content so that it appears higher in search engine results, ultimately driving more organic traffic to your website. But how exactly do you optimize content for SEO? Let's break it down into simple, actionable steps that anyone can follow.

1. Understand Your Audience and Their Intent

Before you start writing, it's crucial to understand who your audience is and what they are searching for. This step is often overlooked but is foundational to SEO. If you know what your audience wants, you can tailor your content to meet their needs, which will naturally improve its relevance and ranking.

How to Identify Your Audience's Intent:

Use Keyword Research Tools: Tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and SEMrush can help you discover what terms your audience is searching for.

Analyze Competitors: Look at what your competitors are doing. What topics are they covering? What keywords are they targeting?

Check Search Suggestions: Google's search suggestions and related searches can give you an idea of what people are looking for.

2. Keyword Research: The Backbone of SEO

Keywords are the phrases that people type into search engines when looking for information. Identifying and using the right keywords is essential for SEO content optimization.

Steps for Effective Keyword Research:

Start with a Seed Keyword: Begin with a broad term related to your topic.

Expand with Long-Tail Keywords: Long-tail keywords are more specific and less competitive. For example, instead of "SEO," use "how to optimize content for SEO."

Analyze Search Volume and Competition: Use tools like Ubersuggest to evaluate the search volume and competition for your keywords.

Incorporate Keywords Naturally: Once you've selected your keywords, use them naturally in your content. Avoid keyword stuffing, which can hurt your rankings.

3. Craft Compelling, SEO-Friendly Titles

Your title is the first thing people see in search results, and it's one of the most critical factors for SEO. A well-crafted title can significantly improve your click-through rate (CTR).

Tips for Writing SEO-Optimized Titles:

Include Your Primary Keyword: Your main keyword should appear in the title, ideally at the beginning.

Keep It Concise and Clear: Aim for titles between 50-60 characters. They should be clear and to the point.

Make It Engaging: Use power words, numbers, or questions to make your title more compelling. For example, "10 Proven Tips to Optimize Content for SEO in 2024."

4. Write High-Quality, Relevant Content

Search engines prioritize content that provides value to the reader. High-quality content is not only well-written but also informative, engaging, and relevant to the user's query.

How to Create High-Quality Content:

Answer the User’s Query: Make sure your content directly addresses the question or problem your audience has.

Provide In-Depth Information: Longer content often ranks better because it covers the topic more thoroughly.

Use Subheadings: Break up your content with subheadings (H2, H3 tags). This makes it easier to read and helps search engines understand your content's structure.

Include Visuals: Use images, infographics, and videos to complement your text. Visual content is more engaging and can improve your ranking in search results.

5. Optimize Meta Descriptions

A meta description is a brief summary of your content that appears under the title in search engine results. While meta descriptions don't directly affect rankings, they play a crucial role in attracting clicks.

Best Practices for Meta Descriptions:

Incorporate Keywords: Include your primary keyword to make it clear what the content is about.

Keep It Concise: Aim for 150-160 characters. It should be a short, compelling summary of your content.

Make It Persuasive: Use action words and a clear call to action (CTA) to entice users to click.

6. Use Internal and External Links Wisely

Links are a key factor in SEO. They help search engines understand the context of your content and its relationship to other content on the web.

Internal Linking:

Link to Relevant Content: Whenever you mention a topic that you've covered in another article, link to it. This keeps readers on your site longer and helps search engines crawl your site more effectively.

Use Descriptive Anchor Text: The clickable text should describe the linked content. Avoid generic terms like "click here."

External Linking:

Link to Authoritative Sources: Linking to high-authority sites can boost your content's credibility.

Ensure Relevance: Only link to external content that adds value to your readers.

7. Optimize for Mobile

With the majority of web traffic coming from mobile devices, it's essential that your content is mobile-friendly. Google uses mobile-first indexing, meaning it primarily uses the mobile version of your content for ranking.

How to Ensure Mobile Optimization:

Use Responsive Design: Ensure your website adjusts to different screen sizes and resolutions.

Keep Paragraphs Short: Long paragraphs can be difficult to read on small screens. Break up your text for better readability.

Optimize Images: Compress images to reduce load times without sacrificing quality.

8. Improve Page Speed

Page speed is a critical factor in both user experience and SEO. Slow-loading pages can lead to higher bounce rates and lower rankings.

Ways to Boost Page Speed:

Compress Images: Use tools like TinyPNG to reduce image file sizes.

Minimize HTTP Requests: Reduce the number of elements on your page, such as scripts, images, and CSS.

Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN): CDNs store copies of your site on servers around the world, reducing load times for global users.

9. Optimize for Featured Snippets

Featured snippets are short answers that appear at the top of Google's search results, often referred to as "Position Zero." Optimizing your content for featured snippets can significantly increase visibility and traffic.

How to Optimize for Featured Snippets:

Use Question-Based Subheadings: Start with a question that your content answers. For example, "How do you optimize content according to SEO?"

Provide Concise Answers: Offer a brief, clear answer to the question immediately below the subheading.

Use Lists and Tables: Structured content like lists and tables is often pulled into featured snippets.

10. Leverage Social Media

Social media can indirectly boost your SEO by increasing the visibility of your content. When your content is shared, it drives traffic and signals to search engines that your content is valuable.

Social Media Strategies for SEO:

Share Your Content: Post your content on all your social media platforms. Encourage your followers to share it as well.

Engage with Your Audience: Respond to comments and messages to build a community around your content.

Use Hashtags: Use relevant hashtags to increase the reach of your posts.

11. Regularly Update Your Content

SEO is not a one-time task. Search engines favor fresh, up-to-date content, so it's important to review and update your content regularly.

Steps for Content Maintenance:

Audit Your Content: Periodically review your content for outdated information or broken links.

Refresh Old Content: Update statistics, improve readability, and add new information to keep your content relevant.

Repurpose Content: Turn older content into different formats, such as infographics or videos, to reach a new audience.

12. Monitor Your Performance

Finally, it's essential to track your content's performance. Use analytics tools to see how well your content is ranking, how much traffic it's driving, and what areas need improvement.

Tools for Monitoring SEO:

Google Analytics: Track user behavior, traffic sources, and conversion rates.

Google Search Console: Monitor your site's presence in Google search results, check for errors, and see what keywords are driving traffic.

SEO Tools: Tools like Ahrefs and SEMrush can provide detailed insights into your content's performance and competitive landscape.

Conclusion

Optimizing content for SEO is both an art and a science. By following these steps—understanding your audience, conducting thorough keyword research, crafting compelling titles, writing high-quality content, and continually monitoring your performance—you can create content that not only ranks well in search engines but also provides real value to your readers. Remember, SEO is a long-term investment. With patience and persistence, you'll see your content rise in the search rankings, bringing more organic traffic to your site and achieving your digital marketing goals.

Mastering SEO: Strategies to Catapult Your Website to the Top of SERPs

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the key to unlocking organic traffic and achieving online success. At MOREIdea, we’ve had the privilege of helping numerous businesses rise to the top of search engine results pages (SERPs). Today, we’re sharing the strategies and insights that can help you achieve similar results, along with some real-world examples and stories from Indian cities.

Understanding the Fundamentals of SEO

Before diving into advanced tactics, it’s crucial to understand the basics of SEO. At its core, SEO involves optimizing your website to improve its visibility on search engines like Google. This includes both on-page elements, such as content and meta tags, and off-page factors, like backlinks and social signals.

Example: Consider a local bakery in Bengaluru wanting to attract more customers. By optimizing their website for keywords like “best bakery in Bengaluru” and “freshly baked bread Bengaluru,” they can appear higher in search results, driving more foot traffic to their store.

Keyword Research: The Foundation of SEO

Keyword research is the starting point of any successful SEO strategy. Identifying the right keywords allows you to target the terms and phrases your potential customers are searching for.

Tip: Use tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and SEMrush to find high-traffic, low-competition keywords. Focus on long-tail keywords, which are more specific and often easier to rank for.

Example: A travel blog targeting “best hiking trails in Himachal Pradesh” might also target related long-tail keywords like “family-friendly hiking trails in Himachal Pradesh” and “hidden hiking gems in Himachal Pradesh.”

On-Page SEO: Optimizing Your Content

Once you have your keywords, it’s time to optimize your content. This includes:

Title Tags and Meta Descriptions: Ensure they are compelling and include your primary keywords.

Header Tags (H1, H2, H3): Use these to structure your content and highlight important points.

Content: Create high-quality, informative, and engaging content that provides value to your readers. Use your keywords naturally and avoid keyword stuffing.

Example: Imagine a blog post titled “The Ultimate Guide to Exploring Old Delhi.” This post should include sections like “Top Historical Sites,” “Best Local Markets,” and “Cultural Experiences,” each with relevant keywords.

Technical SEO: Ensuring Your Site is Crawlable

Technical SEO involves optimizing your website’s infrastructure to ensure search engines can easily crawl and index your content. Key elements include:

Site Speed: Ensure your website loads quickly on both desktop and mobile devices.

Mobile-Friendliness: Use responsive design to provide a great user experience on all devices.

XML Sitemap: Create and submit an XML sitemap to help search engines understand your site structure.

Example: A local restaurant in Mumbai might notice a significant drop in bounce rates and an increase in organic traffic after improving page load times and making the site mobile-friendly.

Off-Page SEO: Building High-Quality Backlinks

Backlinks from authoritative sites signal to search engines that your content is valuable and trustworthy. Focus on acquiring backlinks from high-authority sites relevant to your niche.

Strategies:

Guest Blogging: Write articles for reputable blogs in your industry.

Outreach: Connect with influencers and ask them to share your content.

Content Marketing: Create shareable content like infographics, videos, and comprehensive guides.

Example: A fitness blog in Chennai might write a guest post for a popular health website, including a backlink to their own site. This not only drives traffic but also improves their site’s authority.

Real-World Success Stories

Story from India: A Local Artisan in Chennai

A local artisan shop in Chennai, specializing in handcrafted jewelry, wanted to increase their online sales.

Boost Your Website's Traffic Like a Pro

The Ultimate Guide to SEO: Boost Your Website's Traffic Like a Pro

So, you've heard about SEO but aren't quite sure what it is or how it works? Don't worry, you're not alone! SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is like the secret sauce of the internet, and mastering it can take your website from crickets to buzzing with visitors. Let’s dive in and break it down, shall we?

What is SEO Anyway?

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It's all about tweaking your website to make it more appealing to search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. When these search engines love your site, they rank it higher in search results, making it easier for people to find you.

Think of search engines as librarians. When someone asks for information on "best pizza in town," the search engine (librarian) wants to deliver the most relevant, useful, and trustworthy information. SEO is how you convince the librarian that your pizza joint deserves to be at the top of the list.

Why Should You Care About SEO?

Imagine having the best pizza in town but your shop is hidden in a dark alley with no signs. Not great for business, right? That’s what it’s like to have a website without SEO. You could have amazing content, products, or services, but without good SEO, you’re essentially invisible online.

By optimizing your site, you:

Increase Visibility: More people find your website.

Boost Credibility: Higher rankings make you look more trustworthy.

Drive Traffic: More visitors mean more potential customers.

The Basics of SEO: On-Page vs. Off-Page

SEO can be split into two main categories: on-page and off-page.

On-Page SEO

This is everything you do directly on your website to improve its ranking. Here are some key elements:

Keywords: These are the words and phrases people type into search engines. Using the right keywords in your content is crucial.

Content Quality: Your content should be engaging, informative, and valuable. Think blog posts, articles, videos, and infographics.

Meta Tags: These are snippets of text that describe your page's content. They don’t appear on the page itself but in the page's code. Examples include meta titles and meta descriptions.

URL Structure: Clean, readable URLs help search engines understand your page content. For example, "yourwebsite.com/best-pizza-recipes" is better than "yourwebsite.com/12345".

Off-Page SEO

This involves activities that happen outside your website to boost its ranking. The most important aspects include:

Backlinks: These are links from other websites to yours. High-quality backlinks act as votes of confidence.

Social Signals: Likes, shares, and comments on social media can influence your rankings.

Guest Blogging: Writing articles for other websites can drive traffic back to yours and improve your SEO.

SEO Best Practices

Now that you know the basics, let’s talk about some best practices to ensure you’re on the right track.

Research Keywords

Before you start writing, research what your audience is searching for. Tools like Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, or SEMrush can help you find the right keywords.

Optimize Your Content

Once you have your keywords, sprinkle them naturally throughout your content. Don’t overdo it though—keyword stuffing can hurt your rankings. Aim for a natural flow and focus on creating valuable content for your readers.

Improve Page Speed

A slow website can frustrate visitors and hurt your rankings. Use tools like Google PageSpeed Insights to check your site’s speed and get tips on how to improve it.

Mobile-Friendliness

With more people browsing on their phones, having a mobile-friendly website is a must. Ensure your site looks and works great on all devices.

Build Quality Backlinks

Focus on getting backlinks from reputable sites in your industry. You can do this by creating high-quality content that others want to link to, or by reaching out to other site owners and influencers.

Keep Up with SEO Trends

SEO isn’t a one-time thing. Search engines are always updating their algorithms, so staying up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices is crucial. Follow SEO blogs, join forums, and consider taking online courses to keep your skills sharp.

Final Thoughts

SEO might seem daunting at first, but with a bit of effort and the right strategies, you can master it. Remember, it’s all about making your website more user-friendly, informative, and trustworthy. So start optimizing and watch your traffic soar!

Why seo is important for websites

Why Digital Marketing Is Crucial for Websites: Unlocking Key Benefits

In the fast-paced world of online business, Digital marketing has become a cornerstone for achieving success and driving growth. Among its myriad strategies, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) stands out as a fundamental tool for enhancing visibility and attracting organic traffic to websites. Understanding the pivotal role of SEO in digital marketing can significantly impact your online presence and business success.

Enhancing Online Visibility and Brand Authority

Digital marketing, particularly SEO, plays a pivotal role in enhancing a website's visibility across various search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. By optimizing key elements such as content, meta tags, and keywords, SEO ensures that your website ranks higher in relevant search results. This heightened visibility not only increases traffic but also establishes your brand as an authority in its niche. Consistently appearing on the first page of search results builds trust and credibility among potential customers, leading to improved brand recognition and loyalty.

Driving Organic Traffic and Qualified Leads

One of the primary goals of digital marketing through SEO is to drive organic traffic to your website. Unlike paid advertising, organic traffic consists of users actively searching for products or services related to your business. By strategically targeting keywords and optimizing content, SEO attracts relevant visitors who are more likely to convert into leads and customers. This targeted approach not only increases website traffic but also boosts conversion rates, ultimately driving sales and revenue growth for your business.

Cost-Effectiveness and Long-Term Strategy

Digital marketing, particularly SEO, offers a cost-effective approach with a high return on investment (ROI). Once your website starts ranking well in search engines, the ongoing maintenance costs are relatively low compared to traditional marketing methods. A well-optimized website continues to attract organic traffic and generate leads over time, making it a sustainable and cost-effective strategy for business growth.

Improving User Experience and Engagement

Search engines like Google prioritize factors such as mobile-friendliness, page load speed, and content relevance when ranking websites. By optimizing these aspects, SEO ensures that visitors have a seamless and enjoyable experience, encouraging them to explore more pages and spend more time on your site. A positive user experience not only increases engagement but also reduces bounce rates, signaling higher satisfaction levels among visitors.

Gaining Competitive Advantage

In today's competitive digital landscape, having a robust digital marketing strategy, including SEO, is crucial for gaining a competitive edge. Businesses that invest in SEO are better positioned to capture market share and establish themselves as leaders in their industry. By continually monitoring trends, optimizing content, and adapting to algorithm updates, you can maintain a competitive advantage and ensure your website remains visible and relevant to your target audience.

Conclusion

In conclusion, digital marketing, particularly through effective SEO practices, is indispensable for achieving success and growth online. From increasing visibility and driving organic traffic to enhancing user experience and gaining a competitive advantage, the benefits of SEO in digital marketing are undeniable. By implementing a comprehensive digital marketing strategy that prioritizes SEO best practices, businesses can achieve sustainable growth, attract quality leads, and achieve their business objectives in the ever-evolving digital landscape.

Remember, digital marketing is an ongoing effort that requires continuous refinement and adaptation. By leveraging SEO as a cornerstone of your digital marketing strategy, you can effectively reach your target audience, drive meaningful traffic, and propel your business forward in the competitive online marketplace.

Tell me your favourite system of government you've used/created in your worldbuilding!

There's so many options! You have your classic monarchy, your modern democracy, your subversive communism and anarchy, but there's also:

Theocracy, in which religious leaders rule.

Stratocracy, in which military leaders rule.

Technocracy, in which experts in technology/science rule.

Demarchy, in which randomly selected people rule.

Gerontocracy, in which old people rule.

To name but a few! For a list of 45 forms of government with examples in fiction, click here. Not all of them are real (looking at you, magocracy), but there's some really interesting stuff in there!

I'd love to hear about your favourite form of government in your own worldbuilding!

I'll start!

The City of Fenblith is a meritocracy. Everyone in the city is given a job at 8 years old, seperating them into Classes based not on birth but on aptitude. The Providers grow, forage, mine, and prepare food and resources; the Makers turn resources into tools, clothing, and buildings; the Traders ensure whatever the Providers and Makers can't deliver is procured elsewhere; and the Protecters (not a typo) keep everyone safe and healthy.

The children begin their new careers as Novices. Once they have shown they understand and can perform their job, they are made Ranked. Most Ranked stay so their entire life, but the particularly gifted can become Adepts, allowed to lead Ranked on their duties. Those few Adepts who truly master their vocation become Masters, allowed to teach the Novices, Ranked, and Adepts.

These Masters select from amongst themselves 84 people to be Members of the Council of Fenblith; 21 for each of the four Classes, with 20 non-speaking Members informing and advising 1 Speaker, who may speak for their entire Class during Council proceedings.

Thus, the entire population of Fenblith is represented in Council debates by 4 Speakers, the most skilled and talented people of the city. The debate between them is overseen by the Sage, who stands apart from the Classes (but that's for another time, I think).

Political power in Fenblith, then, is entirely based on merit, as are things such as how well you eat, how well you're dressed, and how many personal belongings you have, as everything is considered communal by default and can only become a personal possession with leave of the community.

Thus, Fenblith knows a clear hierarchy, with riskier jobs bringing greater rewards and higher Ranks doing the same. The trouble is: you don't get to choose your job, and since the Masters decide who gains in Rank, they can reward and punish people they like and dislike in many ways, without recourse to challenge them. So is it really the community that decides how you are rewarded, or is it those people who have managed to transcend the community..?

But now I'm at risk of getting into the actual stories, and that's what my website is for.

Let me know about your own worldbuilding! I'd love to read it!
