    Hi,

    Blogging is very new to me, I have created a blog but want to check if there is anything I should do before I really get going?

    Any particular blog directories to submit too, or sites to ping to after posting new content?

    Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

    Thanks
    Matt

    Right now , do only one thing i.e. to index you blog content quickly into search engines.. For that
    Do following for your new content:
    1. write comment on High PR blogs in your niche. (google it) and submit it manually put your link into website textbox.
    2. Submit your blog to social bookmarking sites (use onlywire, BMD or outsource it)
    3. RSS feed submission, ping blogs etc.
    4. Make a facebook page probably.

    Plzzzzz dont do following..
    Mass commenting by scrapebox or similiar tools.
    Mass backlinking by article submission rtc...

    Rule is for first few months , avoid direct mass backlinking , coz it will throw u in sandbox..... Indirect linking is always welcome..:)

    Submit your blog to social bookmarking sites
    And start some forum posting for advertising or even other blog commenting

    All you need to do is advertise

    I would concentrate on daily unique content, any visitors you are getting you want to keep them coming back.

    Also advertising your site through a forum signature will help. Remember your anchor texts!

    1st make sure you have a proffesional blog design, then start learning seo and how to generate traffic. Submit your blog rss feed to several rss directories. Also look into viral traffic exchanges. I hope this helps. OH, and begin to build a social media following.

    and yea dont forget that the topic of blog (keywords) is the foremost important thing to take care of, if you pick a topic of high competition , then you may work very hard to get traffic, and you may end up in giving up....
    As you are starting , be very careful . Dont start with very high competing niches.

    You should prioritize content over SEO. You have to be a value blogger first to invite more visitors. If you're more into SEO while your site is empty, you'll have a disappointed visitors who might read nothing from your blog. So, write more no less.

    Welcome to the blogosphere. The best thing to do is find bloggers who are in your niche and start building a relationship. You can comment on their blogs and they and the readers will come to your blog and check it out. It also helps if you make your blog do follow this will encourage comments and visitors. You can also submit to blog directories . I recommend http://dofollowmovement.com

    Definitely, unique content is first priority for the blog. Apart from that design of the blog also essential. You must design your blog according to the topic of the blog that you have choose. Always, do the pinging once you have posted any new content to your blog.

    Furthermore, blog commenting and Blog Feed submission (Atom in case of blogger) will helpful to make you blog long lasting with good image.

    Create daily new content which is unique..your own articles
    post this new content more than once per day to create traction
    YARO says you need to do this for at least six months - interprenuer-journey.com (yaro)
