Author Topic: keywords & categories across sites.... (Read 2974 times)

I've been playing with possibilities using the symbiocards

previously, i'd collected all site info into a db
http://cascoly.com/symbio/testsymbio.asp

now that db lets you display the promoted keywords and categories for each site

------
my main goals now are to automatically collect the image info from each site & update the db, and then do the same with keywords

-----
this info will be freely available and I can add different searches & lists if there's interest

any other ideas for how this information can be used?

No idea yet how they could be used in other ways unles some has the idea of collecting lots of thumbnail sized pictures, not sure I like this use where they appear separated from the home, and thus marked, sites

any thumbnails are taken directly from the symbio produced csv files and thus have a direct link to the original site -- displaying them on another site both gives google backlink cred AND possible clicks to the actual site

leo's added a new fle in 2.3.7

symbiostock_keyword_info.csv in the root with other csv's

by itself you can use t to check your keywords, find misspellings, etc and see the distribution of your keywords.

i'll be writing a separate db that will collect keywords to allow keywords to be searched across all sites - showing # of images each site has with that keyword as a total and a %. I plan to set it up so you just enter your sitename and it will add/update your info to the database

I just tried to find where I can set up my promoted keywords. I was looking in user - my profile, symbiostock - autor options and symbiostock - marketing, but didn't find it ... perhaps it's just to late and I should get some sleep

Go to symbiostock-network, and below is "Promoted Keywords" field.

new searches online for frequency of keywords and keywords used across sites

new searches online - i'vecollected, then totaled all keywords - there are about 15,000 in use

here are some new reports:
Show all promoted keywords alphabetically
•Show most popular keywords
•Show keywords used by most sites
•Show combined keywords alphabetically

http://symbiostock.cascoly.com

the idea for these isn't as much direct by users, rather to let you see what keywords are being used, and where there are gaps you can fill - both in promoted keywords and keywords in general

eg, you're in a crowd with keywords 'white', isolated' or 'illustration', but the field is wide open for 'restroom', 'warlock', and surprisingly 'seagulls'

(these reports only show those keywords with at least 10 uses.)
