One of the biggest problems that so many websites face today is the use of jargon. Jargon is like colloquial slang and regional slang. Each area in the world, each area within a specific town or city; they all have different slang words that they like to use. They all have area indigenous slang that might overlap with other areas, but is concentrated mainly in theirs.
This is exactly what jargon is. Jargon is simply a snazzier word to use for area related slang. The jargon you use is “area related” to your area of expertise. It gets a bit confusing doesn’t it? Now you get the idea of what other people feel like when they visit your website only to find it stuffed to the max with jargon they are not familiar with.
Making things easier for yourself
The internet is a highly cut-throat and competitive place. It is, in fact, the most competitively dangerous and dog eat dog place on this planet. That is why you really need to jazz up the SEO efforts for your website and your blog and any other domain you have on the internet. Without SEO efforts you are as good as invisible. So, now we get to the point of making things easier for yourself.
In making life easier for yourself you actually need to look at making life easier for your visitors. Your visitors are key; they are your web traffic and they can lead to more web traffic coming your way. However if you stuff your web pages full of jargon you are not making their lives any easier. And in doing so you are not making your life any easier. On the contrary, you are making life very difficult for yourself. Stay away from jargon unless you know it will work.
Back to the drawing board
Research is an ongoing part of your SEO efforts. Oh, it’s not? Well then you had better make a move to include lots of research into your SEO. Your research should specifically focus on keyword usage of your visitors. Moreover, if you have poor web traffic you are not using the right keywords to attract visitors. So in that case you need to do research into the keywords your prospective visitors are using to reach the websites of your competitors.
It is what it is
Stay away from jargon that the average person in your target audience does not use or understand. Call a spade a spade and not anything else, no matter how jazzy or sexy that something else may sound to you. It is not going to draw attention to you through keyword searches if it is not plain, boring and popular. They say that a rose by any other name would still smell the same.
The problem comes in when your visitors don’t realize that you are talking about a plain garden rose because you are using so much jargon. Boring is popular where keywords are concerned and popular gets you noticed. Keep your keywords average and jazz up your the rest of your website with in-depth SEO.
