“Blogging is just writing — writing using a particularly efficient type of publishing technology.”                                                                                             -Simon Dumenco

What Simon Dumenco has stated is very true but efficiency of publishing can be scaled up in such a way that a good content has propensity to reach wider audience.

Below are our 5 easy steps to increase your blog traffic and also these 5 are my favorites which are often overlooked by many bloggers. Of course, here I have not included the obvious ones like keyword research, guest blogging etc.

1. Trackbacks: WordPress along with many other blogging websites, has a wonderful capability named as trackbacks. Trackbacks is When you mention any other webpage on a website, their blog (if it is also on a supporting platform) will get a mention that they have been mentioned. It creates a backlink for readers to follow. It really is an easy and effective tactic for the websites to share great content and then receive contextual backlinks.
2. Promote your blog post on social media: Promoting my blog posts on social media has done wonders to my blog. Mostly I promote my blog posts on relevant Facebook pages, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, Linkedin groups, Digg, stumbleUpon, Reddit, IBOtoolbox etc. Also, your blog must have social sharing buttons, at least for these social media platforms.
3. Include relevant YouTube videos in your blog post: In today's world, never underestimate the power of an informative video. Also, do not forget that Google owns YouTube and that's why videos have capability to generate more traffic to your blog. Not only that, I, many a times make a small video promoting the content of my blog. Many a times, I have observed that even if my blog post doesn't appear on the first page of google directly but still it gets it presence because of my video which lands on the first page with much less efforts.
4. Use Efficient software to promote your blog: Earlier, I was never ever in favor of these promotional software because the industry is full of inefficient and fake soft-wares. But, be open to adopt the good ones. Recently, I came across TrafficZion-Pro which really worked for me. I will not go into the details of this software but you may evaluate it by clicking here, if you want to know more.
5. Write Great Content: Here, I completely agree with Simon Dumenco as after all blog is all about writing. No amount of traffic is of any use if your content is not able to engage with your readers. Never ever bother about keywords, blog post promotion until you have written the full article to your satisfaction and you feel proud of sharing your blog post with your friends and loved ones. Once this is achieved, follow various means of promoting it.

These are my favorite 5 Easy steps to increase your blog traffic.

The internet is full of info products claiming how to make dollars online on auto pilot. I am really fed up of such claims. Before you try any such products, learn the basics. There are two Blogging tips that can make you a successful blogger to make money online.

Content that you provide in your blog posts: This is the most important factor to be successful blogger. Try to master the art of writing about the subject that you are passionate about. If you content is not interesting or useful, nothing will happen even if you get millions of clicks everyday.

Traffic: Once you are comfortable in generating great content, you need an audience for your content and that is when you need social media exposure, the rightly done SEO and paid clicks.

So, don't get caught by thousands of info products which claim to make you rich overnight just by following a process created by their so called software or push button.



Research a niche, check whether it has demand in the market, write a blog post around your niche and once you are satisfied with your content, start looking for the ways to generate traffic. It is as simple as that. If you do not do this, you will waste your money and time with ZERO result. You don't need any book or guidance to be a successful blogger as long as you are blogging in a field that you are passionate about. Just follow these two blogging tips and you are done. You should choose a niche that you are so passionate about that you will pay to work in that niche or field. Otherwise, you will try to write a few posts somehow and immediately give up when you don't get results. If that happens, understand that you are not meant to be a blogger and try something else.

So, pull up your socks and start now. Only you can help yourself. Blogging is a hard work but if you do it the right way, end result is very satisfying and lucrative.
