Optimizing the Blog
Started a blog recently but clueless on how to go about directing traffic to your site or, as they say in tech parlance, grabbing enough eyeballs. This is one ingredient which if you miss out on, your AdSense program (or any other means of monetizing the site) is rendered to a state of rigor mortis.
So how to achieve this Rock star viewership. And mind you, the key thing here is, to attain our objective without spending a dime.
Some tips and tricks to make and keep the readership high.
Social Networking -
Discuss the issues you post on in popular social networking sites like Facebook, Orkut, Hi5 etc. But make sure the effort is genuine otherwise people will see through the marketing sham. The fact that you first wrote about the issue on your site makes you interested enough in that issue. So when posting about and discussing the subject on a social networking site, make sure you go the whole 9 yards.
This is by far the best way to generate traffic initially and make your site known when it is new. The reason I use the word initially is because subsequently you would like people to find your site themselves.
