25 Free Ways To Generate Traffic To Your Blog

[seobacklinks2u]

Thanks for sharing your tips

[PHP_Adam]

This is a great post,
Their is the Social Sites missing from your website such as Twitter.
I have also found that talking to simular websites, and asking them to display the lastest 3 blog posts (if their in the same niche) is a very effective way to generate traffic.

Twitter is also a nice to to attract traffic .

But , this tool is effective in building a social campaign .

I like setting up my blog to have free stuff (e-books, audio downloads) in the sidebar - you promote the free stuff, and then people end up surfing your blog - my Goog Analytics shows me this works well

If you share free items in your website , you could get lots of free traffic to your website .

But , maker sure to share valuable contents that can really help your customers or subscribers .

Can someone please properly explain 'pinging' to me.

Thanks

[Star Riley]

Great check list.

One thing I use to generate traffic is to share traffic with others while making friends online I stumble and tweet others almost building a network of online supporters.

[FredJones]

And ultimately, with a blog in say blogger.com or wordpress.com and without own site (.com etc), how good can one be at selling own/affiliate products?

In other words, what is the observed level of difference in people's attitude, if any, for similar contents but hosted differenty (own site versus blogger etc)?

[Mr_Julian_S]

Nice tips and a good share. Though I found a lot of repetitions in the tips and also tip 12 missing.

[Hafsoh]

Nice post! Give people what they want and do it consistently, try and have quality content on a regular basis. Then post quality over quantity.

combining quality and quantity is great and to archive this you need to outsource your activities so as to get the most .

Hey anuj291 ,

As you said article marketing is great .

The problem lots of marketers fail in article marketing is that most of them do it improperly . as a result they get burned .

Always focus on creating high quality , fresh , helpful , search engine friendly and topical articles , and properly syndicate them across the net .

This way , you would be able to get the required benefits .

Mike

[cruise05]

7.Social Bookmaking sites
8.Social media sites
14.Submit your posts to social media sites

Can someone please explain that for me?

[Jenie0109]

[marioxiao]

[clubbin714]

One of my favorite quotes that really helped my blog grow is this. Unfortunately I can't post the link.

One Great Page is Worth a Thousand Good Pages

While hundreds or dozens of on-topic pages that cover sections of an industry are valuable to a website’s growth, it is actually far better to invest a significant amount of time and energy producing a few articles/resources of truly exceptional quality. To create documents that become “industry standard” on the web and are pointed to time after time as the “source” for further investigations, claims, documents, etc. is to truly succeed in the rankings battle. The value of “owning” this traffic and link source far outweighs a myriad of articles that are rarely read or linked to.

You just answered some of our major problems of sending traffic to our blog. Personally i have been using pingomatic, with the more addition ways to drive quality traffic i will get to work as soon as possible. Thanks.

[Mr_Julian_S]

Thanks for the nice list. I have already started working with the Video Marketing sites, as it is the newest fad. I am also targeting Presentation sharing sites now for promoting my sites through them.

[DrAl]

Great info, but looking at it can be overwhelming which kept me back from making an income until this year when I decided to just pick two off of the list above and get good at them, so I developed a great ping list for my blog and submit articles via article post robot and do this on a regular basis which has now become habit and now ready to work on otherways. Just don't let the list lose your focus and make the mistake I did in become a knower of all and a master of none.

[MBeshr]

Hey DrAl ,

In any business , specially internet marketing related business FOCUS is key .

It is always advisable to get focused while doing your business . That is , you have to do one thing at a time and you move to the other things , only after you finish your first activity .

The same is applied to traffic generation activities .

Always , give priorities and take a focused action .

The best thing to succeed in Twitter is to learn what the big guys are doing and copy and improve their techniques and strategies .

This is a great reminder. I've gotten off on another tangent. When I post to forums then I neglect to anything but that. When I work on updating my site (learning about WP plugins) then I drop the ball.

The steps that you offer is a great way for me to to stay focus. Now I better plan my day such as Monday, post to forums. Tuesday article marketing. Wednesday submit blog to directory, etc.

Thanks for the road map!

Hey Amenda ,

You do not need to do every thing by yourself .

You can outsource some of the tasks so as to focus on the most profitable and main parts of the business .
