Promotional strategies that can be done on your blog
Submit your blog to social networking sites. There are a lot of sites where you can submit an article to gain traffic. Once you created a post from your blog, sign up on one of these sites then submit your article.
- Blog Engage, this was the first site where I submit my articles, once your blog is submitted on blog engage, it will get an instant promotion on the front page, plus your blog will have a chance to be reviewed.
- Blog Catalog, this blog directory is popular among bloggers. When you’re looking for blog promotion, submit your blog here. It will take 24 hours to get approval once your blog was submitted. Once approved you can start interaction with other members. You can even create discussion as well as send message with other members.
- MyBlogLog, when you have yahoo id, you can easily access this sites. Use your yahoo id and password to get inside then submit your blog. Same with blog catalog you can also interact with other members. You can add community to your blog and become member also with other community.
- Entrecard, this social network provides banners that you can display on your blog. Once another member drop a card on the banner you will earn Entrecard Credits, this credits can be used to purchase ad on other site with Entrecard widget to promote your blog this Entrecard Credits can also be used to purchased products available o Entrecard store.
Site that provides answers to every question visitors asks
- Yahoo Answers, this is a site where everyone can ask or answers questions from other people. Sign in using your yahoo id then answer questions that are related to your blog. You can provide link of your blog in to the source box to drive visitors into one of your post.
- Answerbag, same with the yahoo answers, the purpose is to answer or ask questions for anything. Sign up on this site and answer questions that are related to your blog and then provide a link that pointed out to one of your post that can answer the questions.
That’s it. This is the promotional strategies I used to gain more blog traffics, aside from optimizing my blog and building blog that is search engine friendly, this is just a few source of traffic, if you know other way you are free share it on our comment area.
All I can add here is that if try to be active at Yahoo Answers, then do your best there.. don't try to reach tops in Answerbag at the same time.. unless you have 2 PCs, 4 hands and 2 heads :)
ReplyDeleteOh.. and I wouldn't recommend using Entrecard. It gives you the illusion of some benefits dealing with this network, but if you think twice, you'll get it.. You promote them, you recieve running (20-seconds per visitor) traffic, which Google doesn't like at all.
