How to get more traffic on your blog

Blogs are cool. I enjoy designing them and also enjoy writing and reading them. I like the fact they are interactive…But how can you drive more traffic to your blog? Here are a few tips that I use for every blog post I do. Of course there may be more…I just know that these work.

* Write a keyword rich headline

Click on over to Word Tracker and put in a phrase that describes your topic and it will bring up a list of keywords that people put in the search engines for that topic, as well as the search volume. Use a few of these high volume keywords in your headline.

* Write your blog post using a few of those high volume keywords
* Post and Promote!

Here are a few sites I submit each blog post to, they are highly trafficked which also helps to bring your post up organically in the search engines.

* Stumbleupon
* Digg.com
* Reddit.com
* Blogcatalog
* Twitter
* Facebook
* Selfgrowth.com
* Google Groups
* Posting on similar blogs and of course, adding your blog address to the comment section.
* If your blog post can be converted to a how to article…you can submit it on EHow

Hopefully that’s enough to get you going…being consistent is key; search engines like changing content! If you are interested in getting a custom blog designed…I can help!
