i'm having a personal blog. and most of the things i blog about is my daily life but i do attach photos at times (or maybe most of the time). waht should i do to get more views for my blog?
my blog link is http://karyan-ism.blogspot.com i used to blog using blogdrive and windows spaces live but just changed to blogspot recently..
cool. but if you're just starting, isn't it better to get a good domain + wordpress instead of using blogspot? BTW we can exchange links, i ave personal blog too in my signature.
Great blog, and you look nice. To get more visits you should add your blog in your signature, post in general forums, comment on blogs.
Ask your freind to visit and help to promote. Besides, try subit it to article submission site/bookmarking Forum posting also another method to get traffic
Make a blog/posts that other people will find interesting? It's very hard to promote a personal one unless you're a celebrity or important/known figure in your industry
Try to update frequently and occasionally comment on newsworthy or other popular topics. This will bring in some SE traffic.
That is right on the money. If you are trying to attract the average reader, you need to interest them, and a daily journal of your life...unless you are a political refugee in a war torn country, is not that interesting to most people. What I have seen others do with personal blogs, is capitalize on other things in the area. I couldn't tell where you are, but it didn't look like the U.S., so why not add some features and photos of where you live as sort of an insiders tourism blog? Show your city and country as only you can being a resident. I live in Las Vegas and I sometimes do that with my blog as well. Another way to possibly get people interested is to make your bio a little more compelling. Where you live, and how old you are for starters. If people are going to be interested in your daily routine, it would help o know where in the world that routine takes place. It may interest some just from a cultural point of view. And...since it is a personal blog, your first line of advertising is with your family and friends and the easiest way to get them to read is to write about them and include them into some of your posts.
a personal blog is to target friends and family to keep in touch with them, you write the blog as it is your passion. if you now want to drive traffic then this indicates another reason that you want to moneitise your blog at some point.. so you need to start to get controversial and doing reviews of the chemicals in baby food or why Soy is one of the biggest con in the 20th century.... most blogs fail because they get personal... so decide what your blog should be.. if you want traffic then change to another topic/create a new blogg but you also need to participate in other blogs to help promote your blog...
It's just my Opinion.. Unique contents is a " King ".. and SEO is a " Queen ".. So, first U should build more Unique contents then try SEO method to introduce your blog to the world
Maybe subcribe to similar blogs and blog optimization bloggers to get ideas for marketing, e.g. Dosh Dosh and Skelliewag...

Find e-mail address of all your friends or everyone who know you, and tell them about your personal blog. Personal blog would usually receive good traffic from person who knows you, because they would love to see your progress.
Are you planning to make money from your personal blog later? If so, I believe you won't make it. Assuming that you will be the next superstar blogger, how will make money if you will be just talking about yourself? Will you sell ad space on your blog, or endorse a product? If you will, you will still need to talk about it. Otherwise, they will withdraw their product. Here is a post that will further support my claim - Making Money Online from a Personal Blog Here's also a post at Copyblogger about a celebrity blogger who has more than half a million visits a day but only making around $1k a month - http://www.copyblogger.com/no-money-blogging/ Hope that helps.
