Hey! I wonder how to get people to visit my blog. I've added my blog to some directories out there. But what other ways is there?
I've done the following with one of my new blogs, all with varying degrees of success - directory submission article writing and submission social bookmarking exchanges purchasing links exchanging links press release forum signatures Since launch on the 17th Dec i am now averaging 84 uniques a day and growing I'm sure others can add more to this list....
Definitely advertising. Here on DP (in the "Buy, Sell, and Trade" forum) you can buy banner ads and other forms of advertising. - Edward 602
Or you can do some link baiting. Post some amazing unique (but false) story and submit some free PR releases. Then if you are creative and believable enough with your story some big sites may link to you.
Try making a couple of 1 minute home videos about your blog's content and submit them to youtube, yahoo, google videos, and all the video sites. I know that there's a place to add a link back to your site on google videos and youtube. I'm not sure about the others.
Thanks for the help! I have some questions though: What is article submission? And if I publish a amazing but false article, wont my reputation be ruined then?
Check out this article about a program called comment hut. I just started using it, so I don't have any results yet. http://www.earnersblog.com/tools/comment-hut/
did u submit yr blog to blog and rss directories? else if u have good content you'd generate traffic naturally. blog networks like 9rules.com occasionally have acceptances for new blogs. i got in recently and there's a number of good blogs like guy kawasaki, pronet advertising on the network.
Well if you are talking about the traffic, i just want to recommend to go with basic steps. if you are going to do the basic right you can earn good traffic and could earn more than 10-20 $ within 2 months. So you have to read a lot and ge t ready for that. If you want to earn money, i dont think so there are any kinds of shortcuts available here in this world for that. Learning material you can get from my blog. seo-tool.blogspot.com and also from this forum. AS this is the best place or you can say integrated place for many things.
social bookmarking is the way to do .. write articles that fit well with sites like Digg, Reddit, Simply .. I usually get a lot of traffic everyday from social bookmarking sites.
Ok, I thought of adding them to the end of my post (social bookmark pages). But blogger.com is hard to modify. Do you know how to add them?
