10 Basic Steps for Beginners to Increase Traffic to your Blog

  1. Talk, talk, talk. Advertise your blog, let everyone know your blog, your family, friends, colleagues, clients, associates, relatives, etc.
  2. Set up a feed on MyYahoo.com. Go to MyYahoo.com, sign in, add your URL feed link and keep checking it everyday. In a while, Yahoo will start spidering your site regularly.
  3. Write intelligent comments on popular and high traffic niche sites in context with your own content.
  4. Use Ping-O-Matic every time you publish a post. If you use WordPress, your post will automatically get pinged.
  5. Every page of your website should have the link to your blog.
  6. Send a link of your blog along with your emails, newsletters, sales reports, other reports, autoresponders.
  7. Print your blog URL on your business cards, brochures and flyers.
  8. At least post one post a day, irrespective of whether your traffic increases. It will eventually increase, don’t give up, enjoy it.
  9. Use Trackback links when you quote or refer to other blog posts.

    What about submitting your stories to WEB 2.0 sites like DIGG.
    Either you get banned if you post useless posts, or you will get some good traffic.

    There are many advantages of your web blog above a website, except it’s easy to setup and free. You can put every thing in your blog: from a couple of lines what it is on your mind or your new article just published elsewhere, or a product review. In principle, a blog is the same as a website, but you will need to update more frequently to get the visitors to your site. A major advantage of your web blog here above a website to getting major search engines like Google and Yahoo to visit your blog frequently is a technique called “pinging”. It’s a method of notifying all of the major search engines and blog directories, each time that you have updated your blog. The search engines will come and to take a look at your blog, thereby increasing traffic to your blog. If you link your blog, the search engines will follow the links from the blog pointing to your sites. This will help the search engine rankings of your sites as well!

    Have patience. In 1999, when Blogger was launched, very few people blogged at all. Now, according to Technorati and others, there are over 50 million blogs. If you want to be popular, it’s going to take a lot of hard work.

    Networking with other like minded bloggers is a good step towards popularity.

    If you are just wanting to write to a few, however, this doesn’t take much effort, all you do is write and post.

    Know why you are blogging.
