Traffic Growth for a Film Criticism Blog

by AsherG
7 replies
Folks,

My name is Asher Garcia. I just started a film criticism blog this month. I am active in the film business, so this niche is appropriate for me. I've loaded content since beginning this site, set up a newsletter, and designed a fine layout. Working on linking all my social media networks, as well. The goal is to amplify traffic rate. Consistently, I will review a film each day. A dose of humor floats in all my critiques, too. I avoid dull, pretentious analysis, in exchange for enjoyable assessments. A newsletter is to be sent out once a week.

Any valuable advice one (preferably, all of you) might might have to offer me on this journey? Much appreciated.

    Hello Asher Garcia,

    Congratulations for the blog.

    To achieve the goal, you need to use more of social media with a target audience set.

    Social media for your this blog will be a perfect audience. People look for interesting thing on social media and if they get reviews of views and that too in a interesting way. They can be the regular visitors on your blog.

    Thank you

    One of my students has a similar blog. Although more celebrity criticism than film specifically. But the principle is the same but on a slightly wider topic. Many of course who are 'film stars'.

    Her specific method of driving traffic is through Facebook.She has built up a strong following on Facebook and is very active on it all day, every day. Multiple posts, comments, responses, interactions.

    She posts probably only one blog post a day, always something or someone current and in the news. Best people or subjects are those where half the people hate and half the people love so makes for a lot of Facebook (heated) discussions.

    Then she puts her blog post onto Facebook and always gets thousands of views to every blog post.

    The blog is simply the monetization vehicle. The true value is from Facebook.

    Hi Asher,

    Its nice to see that you have done some of the necessary groundworks. The one thing that really worked for me was guest posting. Also I'm sure that there are forums which are specifically dedicated to that particular niche; perhaps you can also try forum marketing. Forums can be absolutley magical.
    At the end of the day its all about trying and testing different strategies until you find the perfect fit. Social media might not be it, but maybe guest posting is. Just remain positive and give yourself time to discover what works best. I'm sure that you will be successful, you already started so strongly!
