TOP 10 ARTICLES ON JARUSHUB IN 2014 PLUS OTHER STATS

Here are the top 10 articles on JarusHub, Nigeria’s numero uno career and management portal, in 2014.

1, TOP 10 MOST MARKETABLE COURSES IN NIGERIA

When I jointly prepared this article with two other contributors to this portal in April, I never thought it would be a hit. Everyday, Google directs at least 100 views to it from people searching for courses of study. It has also overtaken  Common Interview Questions and Answer Tips as all-time most read article on this website. Well over 10,000 people have read the article since it was published eight months ago. It also made Nairaland homepage.

2, COMMON INTERVIEW QUESTIONS & ANSWER TIPS

This is another search engine-driven article, with the chunk of its traffic coming from Google. Hardly surprising, people go for interview on daily basis and usually resort to Google for tips, which in turn directs them to articles like this.

3, HOW SEUN OSEWA BUILT A MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS WITH NAIRALAND

This article is unarguably the most extensive material on Seun Osewa, the founder of Nairaland, Nigeria’s biggest web forum. The article, which I prepared in January, answers many questions on the media-shy nerd. Let me also mention that Seun Osewa is the second most common search engine term directed to JarusHub by Google, second only to the name of the website itself. He is by far the most searched name from Google. The article also gains traffic from Social Media shares, as many people share it on Facebook in particular.

4, THE ROAD TO VICTORIA ISLAND

This got this position because of advertisement on Facebook and other channels. It is also stickied to the front page of the website. More like a forced traffic. Anyway, if you have not picked your copy of the book, it is still available.

5,  DO LAW GRADUATES OF NOUN GET ADMISSION INTO LAW SCHOOL?

Another Google-driven traffic. This question was sent to us by a reader and answered by our legal matter contributor, Misbau Lateef. It turned out that many people are asking Google for answer to same question on daily basis and Google directs them to this website. It is also one of the most commented articles on JarusHub with many readers and searchers not agreeing with Misbau’s answer, but they are driven more by emotion than facts.

6, SHELL TOPS JOBBERMAN’S LIST OF TOP 100 COMPANIES IN NIGERIA

This was a press release sent to us by Jobberman and published here. The article generates traffic from people searching Google for best companies to work in Nigeria.

7, THINGS TO DO DURING YOUR SERVICE YEAR

This made Nairaland front page and got a lot of traffic from it. It also attracts decent traffic from Google.

8, 5 GREAT COMPANIES TO START CAREER IN NIGERIA

This article was written in 201r and was one of the earliest published posts on the website. The fact that I made reference to it (with link) in many other subsequent articles contributed to the wide readership it enjoyed in 2014. It also draws decent traffic from people searching search engines for companies to work for in Nigeria.

9, SECRETS OF FIRST CLASS STUDENTS

This article was copied and pasted by many other websites who put link to JarusHub as reference. I think it also made Nairaland homepage in 2014. “How to make first class” is another frequently searched term on Google, which directs searchers to this article.

10, A REVIEW OF SHELL RECRUITMENT DAY

I remember writing this article from my room in Edinburgh, Scotland in May 2013. Yet, it is still a hit in 2014. Shell did recruitment this year and people searching for tips on the internet got directed to this article.
