Hi Bob:
I guess I didnt give any numbers. I think I was at about 250/day before I started optimizing my pages, and I am currently at about 600. I am hoping to hit 1000 by the end of the year. I realize that because of the narrow focus of my site, I will likely never get into the 50,000 or 100,000/day like some sites do.
One nice thing about a low number on daily visits is that it doesnt take much to double or triple! If you have 5000/day, 100 more isnt much. But if you are at 100, the extra 100 doubles it!
I am working at cleaning up my pages. I assume that Google will give preference to a site that consistently has keyword rich, clean pages. I was using a WYSIWYG html editor, and I found out that it was leaving lots of code in the page every time I made a change, insomuch that I had one page that was about 75% code, and 25% text.

Hi Mike,
I have 4 times the traffic I have 5 months ago and double when I had two months ago. I am not getting as many as 500 visits a day on this site. So my site is on the increase also!

Thanks, Bob. With your help, my site has more than doubled traffic in the last 8 months. While most of my English pages do not rank well on popular search terms because of competition, I have quite a number of Spanish pages that rank in the top 3. In fact, my site is 13 for the term “cristianismo”, which in English is “Christianity” (if you set to search only Spanish pages).
And, I am at #1 now for “Primitive Christianity”!
I have well over 600 pages online, and probably only one third of them are optimized. When I get them all done, I think my traffic will triple of quadruple from before I started optimizing.
