Getting More Traffic With Blogging
Once your blog is set up and you have been blogging for some time, your excitement might start to wean off if you do not get the kind of traffic that you had imagined for your blog. What has gone wrong that traffic does not flow your way? What can you do to get more traffic to your blog? Why is your friend getting more traffic than you on his blog? Here are the answers to all these questions.
What To Do To Get More Traffic:
You must be patient. If you are all charged up with your blog and are raring to go, but it has been only a month or so since you set up your blog, so wait. You have to be Einstein or have real starry luck to get readership within a few days. In usual circumstances, you will need to know and do many things to build a readership. And this requires patience. Keep your content interesting and useful yet brief. I know that that is a tall order but only good and fresh content that is not time-consuming to read will draw traffic to your blog. Develop links. Blogging thrives on links. So link with other blogs and get their traffic coming your way. Here a worthy point to note is that you should not link randomly to just anyone. Link to only those blogs that match your niche so that you get quality traffic! One more benefit of linking is that you will get a better search engine ranking which will help your blog to shine in the limelight. Participate as a blogger on others blogs. When you read others blogs and leave comments there, they will appreciate you and if they like your views, they would visit your blog too. The only way to ensure that you get traffic through blogging participation this way is by leaving your own blog address in the feedback. Interact with your readers and display your interest. Appreciate the bloggers who visited your blog and left comments on your content. This way you might make them lifelong participants in your blogging activities. Keep your blog up-to-date. When your blog has fresh content and is current, you will have better chances of figuring high on the search engines results. However, your content should always remain meaningful in your updated posts. Put your signature on all your outgoing mail through the signature option. Some more ways to attract the attention of readers for your blog is by promoting RSS feed, by listing your site on directories, portals and search engines and by getting your blog search-engine-optimized. Your can also circulate newsletters or write emails to netizens to get them interested in your blog. Blogging can be promoted while you are offline as well as by making your blogging activities viral through social bookmarking sites. Give advertising a thought for both popularity and to earn revenue through your blog.
Go on, make blogging a part of your life. Enjoy new friendships, business associations and the growth in your knowledge.
