Many first time starters are often tempted to do cheap tricks to boost their traffic. Sometimes they're even creative enough to come up with a unique trick of their own. Have you ever done something like that? If you have, would you care unveiling it here?
Um on my blog for examples (been up for 2 weeks or less) I just post videos I find funny, funny content, my ramblings and such. Send them to my friends on msn and then word of mouth from there. It's working pretty good actually.
link bait, always the best 4000 visitor in 1 day from yesterday afternoon till now. 15 new permanent link. working on another one that will blow crazy easier will be spamming forum and other blog
I am getting a good traffic from MyBlogLog. My blog community is in top 50 of MyBlogLog. I tried to find some loophole in MyBlogLog. The more about it is in my signature. But am sure that MyBlogLog is a good way to get some easy traffic.
What do you consider good traffic? I used MBL for a while a few months ago, and found that it took a ton of work to get a tiny amount of traffic. Even some of the top 10 say they only get 50-200 UVs per day from MBL ... Thanks for the feedback, Anita
good traffic comes from the search engines! and bad traffic comes from traffic exchanges! i have never looked for traffic beyond search engines, i try to keep away from the cheap traffic!
Content is king of course. Decent articles and information will keep people coming back. "cheap tricks" will only net temporary visitors.
