Does blogging bring traffic?

Discussion in 'Social Networks' started by techzarinfo, Jan 17, 2011.

    Hello,

    Does blogging bring traffic?

    I'm thinking about starting a blog for my forum, AIOScene, where I write up articles and promote em and I link my forum on the blog or leave some sort of backlink to my forum. Would this method work? I'm trying to come up with good methods to promote my forum.

    thanks

    Yes, and not just traffic but quality backlink as well. But be sure to post relevant, unique and excellent content.

    It might help a bit but I don't think it would be significant in the long term unless it gets pretty popular.

    I would say yes. Blogging could help you not just in traffic but also in quality backlinks. And like what the above opinion about it, remember that post quality and interesting content that has a relevant to your site. Informative and interesting post is much easier to drive traffic.

    You write articles in the forum? You should write articles in the blog instead! A forum is a place for discussions among several other members. Well, its ok to write articles in a forum and others can discuss it; but what do you plan to write in the blog then? Same subject, same ideas? What will be the uniqueness then? I mean, as a reader, will you suggest me to visit your blog or your forum then? As a webmaster you have to clear this idea to the visitors to make the blog and the forum both successful.

    I read in an article that, if you're going to start a blog, you should try as much as possible to go with Blogger. According to the article, since Google owns Blogger, posts under the blogspot.com domain will be picked up faster and get better positioning in search results. I don't know about that: I use Wordpress software, myself, and several well-known bloggers who use it seem to do very well.

    Just something for you to consider...

    A lot of mention on content, less mentions for quality content. It used to be that "content is king", now it's "quality content is king".

    Yes, you can establish a blog and get good traffic going to your forum. It is best to write good quality content with keywords in your articles because it can rank fast and drive traffic to your site. Most people go to forum to get questions answered, network with others and learn how to's.
