The next thing for my blog is to see which articles were successful and try to create more like them. Don't know which were for you? Then immediately a goal could be to sign up for a hit tracking service. In my case, MyBlogLog and HitTail provide some good details. Checking HitTail, I see that the most searched for articles on my blog relate to Scrabulous and Facebook, while next down the list are articles relating to photography and AS/400 programming.

Less Competitive Keywords - Page 2

Does hit tail provide more info than a combination of server logs and google tools?

I see that it does give you recommendations on which long tail keywords to focus on through increased traffic, however I use it for two main reasons.

* To see a real-time list of links driving traffic to my site
* To see which long tail keywords are generating the most hits

The key is real-time data. Google Analytics is on a delay (like 24 hours or so?) so the data isn't up to the minute accurate. This may not be of concern to most, but I personally like seeing when a particular link starts sending traffic so I can investigate what I did right/wrong right away.

Interestingly enough, this tool was developed by a team at Connors Communications, a technology public relations and online marketing firm that's been around for quite some time. As it has garnered much interest and many awards - including being cited as one of the BusinessWeekBest Ideas of 2006 - they've clearly also done a great PR job for it.
