Talvez esse seja o maior problema da maioria dos blogs no mundo inteiro, os blogs não são tão atrativos para visitantes comuns, e por quê?
Faça o teste você mesmo, lembre de algum post antigo seu, e procure, como se não soubesse o nome exato dele, ou a categoria que ele está. Melhor ainda, diga um post que contenha alguma assunto, para algum amigo seu, e mande ele procurar. Veja quanto tempo ele vai demorar para achar aquele post.
Foi esse o teste que eu fiz aqui no blog, e DEUS, que lixo que estava. Olhando o blog como um visitante de primeira viagem, o blog parecia assustador. O que fazer então? Facilitar o uso dele para o usuário é a resposta.
E não só isso, vi como eu estava me tornando um blogueiro ilha, mesmo com a média de 5mil visitas por dia. Poucos posts apontavam para outros bons blogs, não possuía parcerias, o conteúdo estava misturado à outras coisas não relevantes. Erros comuns que a maioria comete, mas não deveria, esses erros não deveriam ser uma coisa aceitável.
Por isso eu resolvi passar o dia de ontem, resolvendo todos esses problemas, e hoje, escrever sobre o que fiz, que pode ter ajudado bastante na navegação do “novo visitante”.
Organizando as informações do blog
Foi a primeira coisa, e talvez a mais importante que fiz no blog. Organizar o conteúdo é crucial, principalmente se você deseja manter o visitante no blog, e isso com certeza é o que eu quero.
No blog, eu possuía 2 barras laterias, ficavam juntas do lado direito do blog, com informações MUITO misturadas, o texto ficava do lado esquerdo, a tela tinha apenas 900px de largura. Um menu no topo do site, talvez a única coisa organizada, mas, ele levava apenas à página de contato, home e a “about”.
Com esse layout, era muito bom de se ler o conteúdo, mas, não oferecia absolutamente nada de atrativo para o visitante localizar outros textos, o que fazer então?
O primeiro passo, foi ver o que eu tinha nas minhas 2 sidebar´s. Era muita coisa misturada, posts recentes, categorias, maiores comentaristas, alguns links, assinar o feed. Uma completa zona na lateral do site.
O que eu fiz?
Separei o que é conteúdo, e o que não é, ou seja, os posts recentes e as categorias pra um lado, e o resto pro outro, mas, ainda parecia meio bagunçado. Foi ai que transferi a sidebar para o lado esquerdo. Ficando a parte dos posts no lado direito, e o resto no lado esquerdo.
Perfeito, agora quem quisesse ler mais posts, bastava uma olhada para o lado direito do blog e ver os últimos textos e as categorias, se alguma lhe interessar ele irá continuar lendo. Se caso não interessar, quer dizer que realmente eu não precisava desse visitante no blog, e ele não passa de mais um paraquedista perdido na internet.
Após fazer essa configuração. fui ver o resultado, e cliquei na minha categoria com mais posts, e o que me aparece, uma lista com apenas 10 posts. Lembrei que o Wordpress possibilita apenas a escolha de quantos posts devem ser exibidos, e essa configuração é usada nos arquivos, categorias, index, enfim, em todas as áreas. Fui então caçar um jeito de resolver esse problema, e acabei encontrando esse plugin: Custom Query String, com ele é possível escolher quantos posts serão exibidos em cada área do blog, coloquei 70 posts nas categorias, no autor, nos arquivos e 10 no index. Troquei o “the_content” por “the_excerpt” e finalizei minha tarefa com as categorias.
Do lado esquerdo
Coloquei para assinar o feed por e-mail, os maiores comentaristas, os links, alguns banners, ou seja, estav bagunçado.
Para arrumar tudo, deixei lá, apenas os links e banners, e acima de todos, as opções para assinar o feed. Criei um sidebar no rodapé do blog, para tirar as informações que não precisa da sidebar esquerda, e criar uma área para os visitantes assíduos.
Nela eu coloquei, os maiores comentaristas com o gravatar, para agradecer com um link e uma foto para os que mais contribuiram na semana com o blog.
No topo do blog
Coloquei uma ferramenta que gosto de chamar de “RocketDock”, um menu flutuante, agora com links para todas as categorias do blog. Nunca foi tão fácil achar o assunto que gosta no blog.
Deixando de ser um blogueiro ilha
Nunca fui fã de fazer parcerias, acho que esse tipo de coisa pode acabar com o blog, se não for controlada. Mas, era um pensamento um tanto quanto egoísta, e resolvi mudar, e não tomando essa decisão com a intenção de aumentar as visitas do blog, mas sim, realmente criar vínculos com os blogs, agradecer pelos links e principalmente, indicar bons blogs para os visitantes do Coisas de Homem.
A primeira coisa à se fazer
Vira e mexe o blog recebe algum link, sempre retribuia com uma e-mail ou comentário no blog da pessoa que me linkou, mas não achava isso suficiente. Então, com um pouco de gambiarra, coloquei no rodapé do site, o link para os últimos blogs que linkaram o Coisas de Homem. Assim talvez eu consiga agradecer pelo link no blog em questão.
Montei um sistema de parcerias baseado no do Sedentário e Hiperativo, e dediquei a sidebar esquerda do blog para indicar novos blogs parceiros.
Toda semana farei um post dedicado à links para os blogs parceiros, com links para os posts deles que eu achar mais interessante para os visitantes do Coisas de Homem.
Resultado
Ainda rolou pouco tempo para se ter realmente uma estatística se isso melhorou ou não o blog, mas em apenas 24 horas o tempo de permanência no blog aumentou bastante, cerca de 1 minuto e meio na média.
Ainda quero relacionar todos os posts com uma imagem, para ser visualizada nas categorias, e assim ficar mais fácil ainda se idêntificar com algum artigo.
Espero que quem tem um blog possa aprender com esses meus erros, e também tentar corrigí-los.
Alguns links que valem a pena ver:
Se alguém tiver mais alguma objeção para melhorar a navegação nesse blog, esteja à vontade para comentar.
