The Published and Intel blogs on our site attracted 12.3K views. The articles on these blogs serve two purposes: they provide valuable information to our readers and function as a magnet for attracting new visitors to our website.
The following table outlines how our website’s articles offer insightful content to our audience and draw new visitors. Their impact is easily tracked due to their uniform URL structure. However, we do not monitor traffic for Photographer Spotlights or Case Studies. This is partly because they lack a consistent URL format and also because our intent with Photographer Spotlights is to promote our members, and with Case Studies, to highlight our consultants, regardless of the traffic they generate.
