Hi, to all
Building traffic to your blog
1. Comment on articles from other blogs in your niche, making sure that when you do, you include a link back to your blog.
2. Be active on Social Media sites like - Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. Social Media is becoming more and more critical in today's blogging environment. Use it to promote your articles, but more importantly use it interact with others in your niche and your readers.
3. Link out to other blogs and blog articles from your articles. Not only will this help your search engine rankings, but it will help get you noticed by other bloggers, who in turn just may starting linking back to you. This builds links to your site (giving it more credibility with Google) but can also drive new readers and traffic to your blog.
4. Guest Post - Guest posting is when you write another article to be published on someone else's blog. Guest posting is a great way to get visibility and links to your site. Absolutely something you should be trying to do.
5. Be active in online forums - Find a forum in your blogs niche, register and beginning being active. Don't include a link to your blog initially, but do so after you've contributed and have gotten to know the members.
6. Join or start a blog network - Blog networks are a grouping of like bloggers who partner together to promote their blogs and help each other out. I'm a huge advocate, especially for new bloggers just starting out. Blog networks are a great way to meet people, learn about blogging, and grow your blog.
Thanks and Regards
