    Hey!

    There are many ways to do it and your main tool will be search engines.

    One popular way to promote your blog on other blogs is with Guest Posts. Another way is with Comments.

    Blog Commenting is a good way to promote your blog and the best sites to use are self-hosted WordPress Blogs.

    Use these sites to find other blogs in your niche and comment on them;
    Remember to provide value in each one of your comments and not just use short comments like "what a good article, thanks" - doing this might not get your comment approved. Plus, sharing value in a comment will make you seem like an expert and people do like to know more about people like that.

    Start learning more about Guest Posting too. This is a great way to promote your blog!

    If you would like to find other wordpress blogs that offer you an opportunity to write a guest post for them, you can use Google.com.

    Just type the following in the search box;

    "submit" + "guest post" + "powered by wordpress" + "YOUR TOPIC/YOUR NICHE"

    Just replace the last search query with what you are looking for.

    There are other ways to find blogs for guest posting but this should be enough to get you started!

    Hope this helps man!


    Much Success!

    Cheers! :cool:

    Well, sir, I'll first examine your three links, to see how useful they are in fining topics related to me. Tell you how it goes.

    Second, how to apply search engines to
    http://noitartst.wordpress.com/
    and
    http://thevanitymirror.com/
    anyway?
    I know a little about SEO, and fining word combos ranked not too low nor high but the domain names are set, so what now? I'll Google looking for it, yes, but still, I'm grasping.

    All of that might work as long a search engines aren't spying on your browser history. You could also just search by keyword.

    Hey @Noitartst !

    I would suggest to work on your Self-hosted WP Site first.

    And well, SEO (search engine optimization) is not hard to learn and understand. But you have to take a time to learn it very well and also learn as you do.

    The best way you are going to learn is by doing. As soon as you learn something, Implement it right away. I still remember the very first blog post I ranked on the first page of Google.com for a certain long-tail keyword.

    It looks like you still have a LOT to learn - and do not worry - we all started from where you are at.

    If you want to learn more on SEO, read this;
    http://theblogger.secrettips.org/what-is-seo-and-how-does-it-work/

    Now, all you have to do with the links I shared with you earlier.....
    ...is simply look for other blogs on your Niche. Just type in the topic of the blogs you are looking for.

    For example if you are looking for health related blogs, then type in something like; 'healthy tips to follow' ... or 'how to live healthy'

    Just get creative and learn by doing more than by reading.

    Trust me, you will learn way better by just doing and failing. You need to fail your way to success.

    Learn as much Internet Marketing as you can and take as much action as possible. Mistakes will be your best teachers.

    Hope this helps! :cool:

    Perhaps I haven't articulated myself.
    Blog:http://noitartst.wordpress.com/

    I'm trying to put into practice what you're saying, friends, really, I am.

    All the sameLook at the first few entries, friends. You've given me bland principles, whereas specifics, and specific suggestions related to my specific content, would be nice.

    Are my entries perfect? No. Would I like them? I think would, and by extension others. I may be unimaginative so far in figurting out how to use the tools at my disposal, yet still I try.


    Meantime, I'm starting to experiment with
    • http://commenthunt.com
    And found useful annswers for "mocking feminists." It is a start.

    Oh, and I'm supposed to reply, comment, and network ideally with bloggers whose a Alexa rank is somewhere tween 100,000 and 300,000.

    Been looking for blogs on Google via typing in "powered by Wordpress" and typing in a phrase of whatever topic I'm seeking. Sound about right?
