It feels good to rewrite for EzineArticles. I haven’t done it because I was still busy with my music career. Now that I am back to being a full time blogger and internet marketer, I would like to share some easy to implement tips for promoting your blog. The first thing you will need is good content on your blog.
Give the visitor something of value so they can share it online. This will help spread the word. Now let’s see some simple ways to promote your blog to get more loyal readers, increase profits, and build an email list.
Submit your blog to directories
The good thing about blog directories is that you find a lot of like-minded people and bloggers and that will help you get more readers and subscribers. Instead of going to Google to find the best blogs, go to these directories and see what’s hot and follow the hot stories, comment and be a part of the community.
You will also get backlinks and the traffic is good because it is targeted. Here are the top 3 blog directories:
– Blog catalog
– Blogarama
– Best of web blog search
These are very selective who to add to your directory, so you will find good people who know what they are doing there. If your blog is not accepted, know that it does not have good content.
Feature your content on the best blogs
Guest blogging is another great strategy. If you know something, a strategy or a trick that many people do not know in your niche. Or have an advanced technique to use specific software. Then you can approach a blog owner (who gets a lot of traffic) and give him a short 500 word article on the trick.
As long as the article has an “Ahh Haa Monment” and the blog owner thinks it will be valuable to his subscribers, he will post it on his blog and get a good backlink and lots of visitors to his blog. .
Analyze your competition
Use websites and tools like Alexa, Quantcast, and SEMrush to analyze your competitors. See where your biggest visitors are coming from and see if you can get traffic from the same source. See the demographics of your visitors, their age, education level, they have children, etc.
Once you have all this information, it will be easy to set up the blog correctly, you will know what language to use, and you won’t have to worry about how to promote your blog because you already know where the big blogs are getting traffic, so you just have to go there and get it. .
There are many ways to promote your blog or site, these are just a few that I like to share because when applied correctly, you will start to see good traffic in just a few weeks. You can also use social media, bookmarking sites, press releases, blog comments, PPV, individual ads, and many other techniques.
But my advice is that you find a strategy that you feel comfortable with and use it alone, do not jump from one technique to another. Wear one and master it, they all work, you just need one way to model it and make it work well for you. When you say that you have mastered a technique, it should earn you at least $ 1k per month, then you can say that you have mastered it.
That is all for now. I am looking forward to posting more articles here so that you can see more of me here soon. Peace !!
