When you start a blog, you want traffic. Everybody likes traffic. If you have got traffic you will at some point be able to convert that traffic into money. Of course it will take time.
But don’t sit there and wait and hope that the traffic will just come, randomly.
You have to work to get the traffic, or at least to get the big amounts of traffic. You really don’t have to do that much to get traffic, you just need to do it every day, or at least as often as possible. That would give the best results.
The ideas in this article are not new and they have been shared by numerous other blogs and bloggers.
So why am I repeating the same advice?
Because so many bloggers simply miss or don’t carry out these simple tasks.
Many bloggers think they can make a blog and traffic will come instantly. They don’t realize it takes a lot of effort to get traffic.
But it can also act as a reminder for experienced bloggers, as well.
Getting traffic is a challenge that everyone faces as even the most popular bloggers experience a decrease in viewers every now and then.
I added my first blog post on this site on 10 February 2009. I now have 205 blog posts and that tells me that I blogged on average 4.5 times every week.
These are my top ten most visited posts this year:
1. Read my story of how I became rich overnight:
The Definitive Internet Marketing Technique
2. Find out if you can make money online:
Can You Make Money On The Internet?
3. Check out this short video to see and hear the do’s and don’ts of website names:
Today I looked at my Google Analytics and noticed a ‘spike’ in traffic every 10 days or so. After investigation, I found the traffic ‘spike’ coincided with my blog broadcast automatically sent out by Aweber.
You can set up Aweber to automatically send out a Blog Broadcast newsletter which contains links to x number of blog posts on your blog (where x is a number you can choose).
I’ve chosen 10. So after 10 new blogs posts are published on my blog, Aweber sends out an email newsletter to all my subscribers.
Wondering what a guest blog is?
In simple terms, a guest blog is when you write a blog post and post it on someone else’s blog.
Doing this has its advantages like increasing traffic and blog promotion.
Personally, the thing I like about guest blogging is that it shows how bloggers nowadays are willing to help each other out. Indeed, no man is an island, even in the blogging world.
Remember the blogs you publish as guest posts have to be unique and not published elsewhere.
Do you like the title?
It’s true.
By using the following step-by-step approach, it will make your blog index quicker in the search engines, build powerful backlinks and can provide a steady stream of organic traffic.
How?
Using RSS Directories.
RSS Directories hold millions of links to websites and blogs and are some of the most visited websites on the internet.
By adding your blog’s RSS feed to the RSS Directories, every future blog post you add to your blog, will automatically be added to the RSS Directory. And that means it could potentially be seen by thousands of visitors and your blog will receive a powerful backlink from the RSS Directory.
Since I started this blog back in March, I’ve had a target to increase the number of visitors that comes to this site by 10% each month.
I am pleased to say that the actual percentage I achieve has been on average 14% for every month.
Thank YOU for coming over and dropping by.

Thank YOU for Tweeting and Digging and all that other social bookmarking malarkey.
I only wish you could Stumble (this site is banned – click on this link and see my Banned by StumbleUpon post).
Leaving comments on high profile and popular blogs is no secret to getting more traffic and backlinks to your own blog.
However there is one issue…
Very often, especially on those very popular blogs, by the time you get to comment you could be the 30th or 100th person to comment.
You still get the backlink (assuming they ‘do follow’) but you won’t get any traffic. Who reads all 50 comments?
Not many.
Myself, I tend to read the first 5 or 6 and that’s it.
You have written your best blog post in months. You’ve spent hours, in fact days, writing and perfecting it. It’s a unique and very valuable blog post.

No. That is, it is not possible to keep such a quality level that leads to an increase of traffic, there’s just not time for that. Probably it’s possible to build a successful blog from zero for a single author, but once the blog has reached a good audience it starts another story…
Since early February, I’ve been wanting to personally check if it was possible for a one-man-blog to overcome the physiological traffic peak of his website increasing the post frequency and move to the next level. I made this test on the Italian version of Ikaro that counts almost 3500 daily visitors.
So you’ve created your blog and now you want to increase blog traffic. You want someone to start visiting and reading your marvellous writing because a blog without readers is pretty much useless.
If you’ve been blogging for a while and have been regularly posting, you most probably have a blog posting ‘plan’ or ‘arrangement’ you stick to.
Now do you have a traffic building plan?
If you have only been getting a trickle of viewers to your posts, you need to put a traffic building plan into action.
