How to build up Blog reputation?

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by Vibes63, Sep 18, 2007.

    I recently started up my Blog, which was customized to my website. How do I build up traffic? I have been trying to submit to blog directories but it doesn't seem to helping? What exactly does RSS feed mean? Is there a way to buildup reciprocal traffic from others? I am currently using Wordpress and I wasn't sure how to increase my popularity. My blog is mostly on health and wellness. Any help would be greatly appreciated =)

    Add site to social bookmarking sites and directories. Try to gte links to your site any place you can. Submit rss feeds to rss sites. Google for submit rss feed and it has site with 55 sites add rss feed.

    Post on a regular basis, and post quality. Posting just to post will not give you traffic. Give people a reason to come back, that's the key.

    Mind sharing the URL of your blog ? Might help in answering your question better ... How old is your blog and what keywords are you targetting ? Certain niches have very strong competition, and health is certainly one of them.

    Having solid good content which others would like to link to is the first thing that your blog must have....

    It could be unique and at the same time worthless. What you have to make sure is that the content you deliver to your readers is USEFUL.

    Well in reply to gr8liverpool
    The url for my blog is http://www.doc1vitamins.com/blog
    I originally created to discuss topics related to vitamins since I am currently promoting nutritional supplement. I started to realize as I wrote my blog that it was difficult to write only about vitamins so I think maybe thats why I tried to stay in the relm of wellness (exercise, meditation, nutrition). Is that a good idea or am I driving away my readers. Also, how can I learn if I have any readers that are observing my blog haha. Maybe I am rambling on to myself....

    Free Ebook damn I guess its work a shot since I have a spam blocker...haha thanks for the tip.

    I found the link at http://www.authorityblackbook.com/. Thanks for the tip my friend. I understand how it is a newbie not being about to get a signature and post links. I was there just yesterday I kept posting to pass me up for my required 10. Its pretty easy especially if you are interested...:eek:
