    Hi,

    I've started my spanish website on january, I went from 300 visist to 1500 visits/month.
    But the las couple of months I don't seem to be able to get more than 1500 visits.
    Well, this is not enough, here are some details:

    • The domain is 5 months old
    • Content is original
    • I've created 140 articles
    • I do some backlinking, posting comments
    • I've submitted the site to web directories

    I don't now how to improve this, don't know what else should I do,your sugestions are really apreciated

    Thank you:)
    Ups, here is the site (in spanish) if you'd like to look at it : http://www.historiasdemaria.com

    Have you tried using social bookmarking?
    If you got a StumbleUpOn account or something I'm sure that you could get
    a few visitors by submitting your aticles. Just don't spam it.

    Try also forum posting aside from blog commenting. And yeah, social bookmarking is also one. You may want to create a fan page on FB to drive more traffic on your website.

    One thing i can suggest is to add the XML feel address in your digital point account. The latest feed title will be shown. May be that might increase your visitors by atleast 10 a month.

    Thank you for all your anwsers.
    I'm going to follow your sugestions, they seem good to me. I know there are certain areas I should improve, like social bookmarking. I was kind of discouraged because I work hard all alone for my sites on my free time.
    Thanks again :)

    I know how you feel. I work alone on my websites as well and it can be a pain in the a** sometimes.
    However, social bookmarking is not something that takes much time.
    I have written a post about it here: how to do social bookmarking, if you need some tips.

    I've followed most of your advices:
    added rss feed to this forum
    created fan facebook page

    I've got to put an "I like" button
    My visits are increasing, slowly, but increasing anyway
    I guess it is a matter of time also, need to be patient
