Here are a few tips to keep the momentum going after the launch has ended:

Set up both a marketing and an editorial calendar where you can plan your posts and marketing activities months ahead of time.
  • Join a blogging network of bloggers in your niche or genre.
  • Keep up a consistent schedule of guest blog appearances on the major blogs in your niche.
  • Leave useful comments on blogs with a similar target audience to yours, but not necessarily in your specific niche.
  • Interview high profile people in your industry that your readers are interested in and want to learn more about.
  • Snag guest appearances on popular podcasts and Internet radio shows where you can talk about your topic as an expert.
Whether you just launch your blog on the fly and build it as you go along, or take the time to plan a careful strategy and launch it with a bang, launching a blog can be an exciting and rewarding experience.
