How Were You Quarter 2 of 2022?

Quarter 2 of 2022 just ended.

This article reviews my top 10 posts in terms of traffic generation by the end of Quarter 2.

Coincidentally, or not coincidentally, most of them are related to social media which is why I grouped this post in this category.

1. How to Get Out of Facebook Jail
After a rocky early July, How to Get Out of Facebook Jail continues to be at the top of the leaderboard. Both the blog post and YouTube video continue to generate interest. To date, the post has 238 comments which I believe is a record for any of my posts. You will find the article here https://www.mostlyblogging.com/how-to-get-out-of-facebook-jail/. Frankly, I sometimes feel the comments section is even more helpful than the article. At the time of this writing, the post brings in 24% of my traffic!

2. Best I Can Do Meme

I actually wrote the article in error. I wanted to write a post about free meme generators. I found the "Best I Can Do Meme" that I believed I could rank for. I had no idea the expression "Best I Can Do" came from a TV show named "Pawn Stars." I subsequently added content to that effect after publication. Who would have thought that a fluke would be my 2nd best traffic generator going into the 2nd half of 2022? The post actually brings in 9% of my traffic.

3. MeWe Reviews

I actually didn't write the initial article. It started as a guest post from a MeWe user. The post performed so well, that I started using the MeWe social media site. Bigger blogs wrote about it so I kept adding to the post. At least half the post was written by me. The post brings in 6% of my traffic.

4. Free Social Networking Sites

I wrote a similar article around the same time which underperformed. However, this post about how to chat on social media still is one of my heavy hitters. The article covers social media sites like Clubhouse where you can talk out loud and social media sites where you can network in the traditional ways. The post brings in 4% of my traffic.

5. Advantages and Disadvantages of Instagram

I always see this post in the Top 5 yet it was only recently it climbed to #5 on my leaderboard. Despite being about both Instagram's pros and cons, the post ranks for "Instagram pros" and currently brings in 3% of my traffic.

6. Hottest SubReddits

I interviewed people who started subreddits, Reddit groups. However, I could only find sleazy keywords to go after. As you see, the post ranks in the #3 position in Google's Search Engine Results Pages for the keyword "hottest subreddits" and currently brings in 3% of my traffic.

7. Inspire Me Monday Linky Party #376
According to Ahrefs SEO tool, 2,000 people type in "Inspiration Monday Linky Party" into Google's search bar monthly. I'm not sure why, but I'm very happy to take the traffic. The post ranks in the #2 spot and currently brings in 3% of my traffic.

8. Cons of Snapchat
https://www.mostlyblogging.com/cons-of-snapchat/
I'm so glad my expert interview about the pros and cons of Snapchat made the Top 3. It's in the #3 position for the term "cons of Snapchat" and currently brings in 3% of my blog traffic.

9. PosterMyWall Review
https://www.mostlyblogging.com/postermywall/
According to Ahrefs, 1400 people type into the Google Search Bar "MyWall Poster". Okay, unusual, but I'm happy to take the traffic. At times, this post ranks for "PosterMyWall.com" but this is too hard a keyword to maintain I suppose. This review of the PosterMyWall graphic design tool currently brings in 2% of my blog traffic.

10. YouTube Shorts Download
https://www.mostlyblogging.com/youtube-shorts-download/
Because my post about a Pinterest video downloader was such a success for a long while, I figured this would work for me on Google once I found this keyword, "YouTube Shorts downloader" which I thought I could rank for. If you would like to see the post that inspired this guide to download YouTube Shorts, it's right here: https://www.mostlyblogging.com/pinterest-downloader/

Wrapping Up: How Were You Quarter 2?
As you can see, my Quarter 2 of 2022 was full of social media successes. Even the post about Poster My Wall was relevant since you put graphics on social media.
