So far I make one sale from 300 to 400 visitor that come from blog commenting and I know the conversion rate is not that good. What is yours? And how did you do that?

    Don't solely focus on blog commenting to drive traffic. Make sure you utilize other methods such as social media, forums and video marketing. Blog commenting doesn't tend to have extremely high conversion rates even when you are commenting on relevant blogs. If you want to see higher conversion rates I recommend you look into PPC.

    As for blog commenting, make sure you offer value. Don't just come across as spammy and wanting to advertise your website. Add to the post and even answer questions that other people may have asked.

    Spot on advice from eKing.

    I would suggest you continue with what you are doing and really work on content to build up a reputation. If you had 300/400 visitors what period of time is this? I usually get about 1500/2000 visitors a month to my blog, and about 5% opt-in to my free offer on my blog, and go on my email list. Of those opt-ins I would expect 3% of those to buy my front-end offer.

    The real fun starts when your list starts to grow from opt-ins to your free offer, and that's when you really start to learn how to write great copy, and laser-targeted titles on your emails.

    Blog-hopping is a great way to build Know, Like and Trust engagements with visitors. I use Blog-hopping myself, and I personally know other marketers who also use this method very successfully and make significant sales that way, but it takes time and daily focus to get results.

    It is something else to build in to your arsenal. And sometimes if your content is especially good you will get invitations to guest blog. This happened to me two times in early in my blogging days, and made a great difference to my hits, as well as resulting in some sales too. And it gave me some genuine backlinks.

    I also use reposting as a way of reviving good copy to leverage past successes - here's an example

    If you want free traffic, I think you should concentrate down on two or three methods and do them every day for a month. You will get results, and you will learn so much - eventually becoming an expert in your chosen area.

    As well as Blog-hopping there are many other free traffic methods such as blogging, video blogging and posting blog updates on social media,, Forum marketing, Podcasting, Social Media posting.

    The trouble is that most people only do them for a few days, and when they fail to get results quickly they move on to another method. They lack patience and staying power. But so-called 'failures' can also be seen as obstacles that need to be learned about and overcome. Once you get this mind set firmly established - everything starts to work. My advice is to keep things simple, and focus daily on the methods you choose and stick to your strategy.

    Most people can only keep focussed on anything for about a week before they get bored. That's a statistic I read recently...

    Are you promoting Clickbank products? I'm using PPC to drive traffic to my blog. I also integrated an email opt in my blog so I can follow with them regarding the products that I'm promoting. My strategy is not perfect but I already made 5 sales in 600 hops. I'll continue to improve my traffic quality and let's see how it goes!
