If You Build It, They Might Come

Apparently this famous quote from the movie "The Field of Dreams" does not apply to websites. So my next challenge is to get some traffic to this site, more than just the "pity" visits from all of my friends and family. The problem is getting new people to find your website.

The first thing I've learned is that every site contains something called Meta keywords. From what I gather, these are the keywords that search engines (i.e. Google, Yahoo) use to find your website. Therefore, it is essential to capture the keywords that truly explain what your website is about. The Meta Keywords I currently have for this site are: sci-fi, science fiction, young adult, YA, teen, fantasy, civil war, novel,decisions,war,coming of age,love triangle,deception,spy,love,betray,book,fiction,new writer,blog,marketing,learn,advertise,gaining readers
Hopefully, if you have found this site through a search, one/some of these words was responsible.
