Dear DP fellas, I need your suggestions / opinions / ideas / tips to market my new blog (The first blog I'm running). http://tinyurl.com/bfcare is my blog. I created it as an autoblog. Would be grateful to ya' ppl if you pour some ideas in Thanks in advance..
Hello. The site will do that. Just a few ideas tho... 1. Add a logo to the site, so people know right away this is a fitness site. 2. Attempt to build a mailing list. Give them something for giving you their e-mail address. That way you can market over and over to them in the future and make more money. Or even get them to come back to click on ads. 3. Good placement of good adsense ads, in each blog near the top. I would also put the MORE command on each page so they see the first few paragraphs on the main (home) page but have to click on MORE to go to that articled to finish it. You will get more clicks that way I believe. 4. I would add images on each post at the top of the post. I know, it may sound like a lot of work and it may sound like a waste of time, but people love pictures and they will read more articles. Try sites like this for cheap graphics. http://www.sxc.hu/ or http://www.dreamstime.com/ Good luck. Sincerely, John Davin http://thewebtoolsguy.com

The theme looks simple and it is a standard one.The contents are fine but adding a image will impress visitors more.Make the logo alone as a link since now the whole header acts as a link and it loads the home page when we click anywhere in the header.
Thanks for the suggestions people. I will surely implement these ideas today (adding pictures and logo). Btw, any tips for me to bring traffic in?
You have the default WordPress Blogroll. You might wanna remove that. Instead have something like "Recommended Sites" or the like. Google for some websites and blogs of similar nature and invite them for link exchange.
