    Without backlinks you won't be able to drive traffic. It's the same to build a house from the air! Start working on your SEO!

    In my opinion steady traffic implies that someone is interested in your content. You can link spam all you want, but Google is all about trying to see if your blog posts are relevant to their users.

    And you really should fix your content. Why would anyone read that kind of shallow and extremely poorly written stuff? There's abundance of great material in the tubes of interwebs. For example "How to create a killer article" is just an absurd piece, but not funny enough to be a joke. The only "tip" is essentially "go and write your killer article".

    In addition you've got at least three different topics that I can see in the front page. Gadgets and IM probably do not work for the same crowd.

    A couple of people I know started a blog and got good traffic in the first month. I'd say that they now have a following for the blog. However, their content is great and professionally produced, the topic is interesting to a certain group of people, and it's got photos that are very "pinnable". Anything is possible, but it's not going to be easy.

    Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
    Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

    What's your excuse?

      I started with new fresh topic from many resources on internet, also I try to use online ghost write to compare the article. Some article are published, and I guess you don't like it as a reader, LOL

      I know I will work hard to make some fresh good article and need sometime.

        I'm glad you find it funny. Sorry for my harsh tone, but I just hate someone to waste their time and effort. A real life ghost writer or decent article writing service is probably a good idea, but you're up against fierce competition. You need to step up the game and raise the level so much that it makes me wonder if there's an easier option. For example you could try to conquer the SERPs in your native language and if that works, translate the better articles.

      I'm not an SEO guy and TBH I hate the thing. I promote my blog via my signature in forums and post anything I think is of value like monthly reports, etc on reddit.

      If your content is good and you have regular updates then many people should be regular visitors.

      I recently added the share functionality on my blog and have noticed my traffic has increased a bit.

      Good luck

    Creation of back links is not a problem at all.
    12 article in two week, its seem like you post everyday, its good thing to blog and should get
    traffic up to now, make sure that your content is informative and relevant to topic, sharing on social site is beneficial.

    You must build high quality links to gain traffic from search engines, from my experience it pays off. If you don't know how to do it, hire someone to do it.

    In my opinion for best free traffic which is not google, facebook is first choice.Millions of peoples waiting for us. Twitter is good also.

    Without backlinks it would be difficult, unless your site is in a niche which is less competitive yet has a lot of searches

    You must at least pour some social signals to see incoming traffic

    Backlinking your website is essential part of promotion.However you have to choose wisely backlinks as well.High authority backlinks are of big importance for any website or blog.Therefore u should aim for Dofollow backlinks and .gov and .edu backlinks.Providing fresh and unique content is of big importance too.

    High quality backlinking is essential. Really you need to do a number of things. Traffic generation can be achieved best by combining a whole lot of methods. Paid and free.
    You've started well with lots of content and if you continue to blog everyday this will help - the content is key though. It needs to be fresh, original and relevant.
    Social media is a must - facebook, twitter and google+

    Getting a steady flow of traffic using free methods is a longterm project but well worth it if you stick at it. Obviously paid is a faster process but I would want to be double certain your content is GREAT - if your paying for traffic and they hit your site and dont like your content, they aint coming back - so its just a waste of your money.

    Good luck - there are many resources for traffic out there. just keep doing what your doing and work hard at combining all the traffic methods.

    Use your signature space (as I see you are doing) to gain visitors. This link is also good for your SEO.

    What is really helping one of my blog projects recently is social signals. If you are new to SEO - be carefull, as even guest posting can get you penalized nowadays...

        It took me about 5 months to actually get steady traffic to my blog. I only started backlinking in the last 2 months, and only properly in say the last month. The first 3 months I just published articles, and didn't do much promotion on my social media pages or any backlinking on high ranking PR sites at all.
