Those are 44 :lol: ways to promote your blog. Most of them are based on simple things, I’ll let the tools and the technical stuff for those who know about those more. :)



1. Content is the king. Write a good quality content so visitors come will come back for more.

2. Make an attractive design and layout. Be careful for your blog’s design not to be messy, sloppy, hard to navigate, too coloured etc.

3. Get your own domain. If you have your domain, you’tt get more traffic than having a subdomain.

4. Use MyBlogLog. Join the maximum MyBlogLog communities you can and find yourself a “jump-in-eyes” avatar to get noticed.

5. Use StumbleUpon. When you have a right article on StumbleUpon, expect a lot of people to rate your post a thumbs up, and then expect more people to come to your blog.

6. Use Youtube. List the link to your blog when creating a new account. Start making some video and wait viewers to come to your blog through the link you provided. Some come, some not, but try this method too.

7. Use Yahoo! Answers. Answer questions, but only if you really know what to answer. Use the link to your blog as the source for answers, it’s a very good way for new readers.

8. Use BlogCarnival. Submit on the website as many of your articles to as many carnivals related to your niche as you can. There’s a carnival topic for everybody so make sure that your article you submit is relevant to the carnival. When your post appears in next edition this will help your pagerank, Technorati rank, traffic reach, and more.

9. Use blog top lists. Sign your blog in those blog top lists and get higher on the lists when you have more traffic, more votes etc. Some good blog top lists are: BlogTopList.com, BlogSkinny, TopBlogArea and BlogCatalogue. You can find more if you search the Internet.

10. Use Feedburner. If people subscribe via RSS means a lot for keeping people come back to your blog. They’ll be in touch with every new post of your’s.

11. Use Technorati tags. Expose yourself more with more categories in Technorati. Exposure means traffic.

12. Use ReviewMe. Reviews are probably the best form of advertising and the best way to get more loyal visitors. Use them for visitors.

13. Use numbers. Make list posts like “ 10 tips for earning money”, “5 ways to make a girl like you”, “20 interesting websites” etc. People likes list posts.

14. Use forums. Join forums and if it is permitted, link to your blog where you can. Other people on the forum will check out your site and could bring a big amount of visitors.

15. Use search engines. Submit your blog to search engines because lots of people when search for some keywords that are in your blog will come to read what’s all about.

16. Use social networking. Register to Hi5, Myspace, Facebook etc. Add hundreds of friends. Link to your blog on your profile or in bulettins. This act will transform into traffic, but do it the right way

17. Write on other’s blog. Write a post that has a connection with a post on yout own blog then link it to your website. Linking you on others’ blogs means more traffic for you.

18. Tagged images. Tagg the images from your posts

19. Respond to comments. You’ll have more loyal readers if you answer quckly to their comments and their emails.

20. Watch your stats. See the keywords that are getting you the most traffic and what posts your readers like and don’t like. Use these informations to write some “SEO friendly” posts.

21. Ask questions. Ask readers’ opinions, use questions for them in your posts. Mos of the readers like being asked questions and answering to those.

22. Make lenses on Squidoo. Make lenses (pages) that are relative to your blog and then link to your blog on the lenses.

23. Comment on blogs. Write your own adress when you make a comment and star posting. Comment on may blogs you can. The more comments you leave, the more traffic you get from being noticed by other visitors.

24. Make friends between bloggers. Comment on blogs that are in your niche, have conversations with them, ask them questions, link to them, start to become buddy with them. They’ll probably start to link to you and send some traffic on your blog.

25. Create an internal links network. Link your posts to other posts in your blog to help ranking and traffic. Visitors who see other links that seem interesting click on its and stay on your blog longer. It always works.

26. Edit and update posts. Read again your posts, search for grammar errors and try to update them as much as you can. People don’t like poor quality posts.

28 Write about celebrities. Find interesting news about celebrities and write some posts about those. Visitors search for celebrities on search engines and having some posts on your blog about celebrity news means more and more visitors.

29. Write a great tutorial. Write an instructional post, a very useful one, a well-based post. Think about what to write, take your time to make it a very good one. Link to this post often in your blog, explose it more, make it “this blog’s most popular article”. Tutorials get more links and you’ll receive a decent traffic through this method.

30. Write about Holidays. Exactly like searching for celebrities, when holidays come people search on the Internet for its. Good opportunity for traffic.

31. Mi casa es su casa. Make your readers feel like home. Be polite, answer to comments and emails, help them. They’ll love you.

32. Humanise yourself more. From time to time write something about you, show people that you’re not only into business, use familiar word etc. Make it look that you and your readers have a lot in common.

33. Money later. Make a compromise and leave earning money problem for later. Try first to make yourself a good traffic, some really devoted readers, merchandise yourself everywhere untill you get known and after that you can make some moneyt by add some banners on your site.

34. Take some interviews. Interview especially bloggers to get some links from blogger’s page or others’ blogs.

35. Organise a contest. Hold a contest with an awesome prize (some original idea) and people will come to your blog for winning it. This should be done when you have some loyal readers, they could spread the contest news very quickly and visitors will bulk to your blog.


36. Make people laugh. Be funny, tell jokes, link to funny stuff. People will come back if you make their day.

37 Voting. Polls are popular, so you can use its to generate traffic on your blog.

38. More than 1 blog. Building more blogs and linking one to each other could generate a higher amount of traffic. Start more than one blog if you know you can handle this and work on their traffic equal.

39. Create something. Create something new like a plugin, an wordpress theme, an invention, something that could make other visitors link to your blog. Another idea is to create an award, something like “The most useful Blogger Award” .Send the link to 2-3 bloggers that you consider useful. Specify some rules as “ send this link to other bloggers that you consider useful” etc. This should get some traffic to your blog, as the initial link will be from you. Think about something that could interest the bloggers.

40. Work on SEO. Start doing some research about SEO and optimise your blog for search engines.

41. Write a press release. If you don’t know about this write more here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/actionnetwork/A4288944 . Some free online press release distribution sites can be found on prleap.com , prweb.com, prfree.com, webwire.com etc.

42. Keywords in titles. Add keywords in your traffic so you’ll get a better rank in search engines.

43. Review products/services. People that want to purchase a product search for reviews. If they find you honest they’ll probably tell others about you, link to your blog etc. Another idea is to try writing a review about a new launched product. Even if you haven’t used it.

44. “Predict”. Write about important thing that are going to happen in your niche, about events, parties, meetings etc. When the day will come you are already indexed by the search engines.

re: 44 way to promote your blog

I have to say, this was a very detailed article you wrote, Kappa84! Good job!! I plan on following down the list (except for the Youtube videos, I can't do that for the type of site I am marketing)

perfect the writing, his word catches gold all of them. Congratulation
 
Kappa84, thank you very much for this truly great work! You could also place HubPages near Squidoo, because they are ranking better, than Squidoo. Google ranks them better, because HubPages are highly moderated to prevent spamming.
(There is a little semantic mistake in No.42.)
Thank you very much, again!
 
A 1st class topic and some of the ideas are being started straight away. rep also added.
 
Hi there,

That is a great post. I will be reading it over and over again. Should get some great ideas from it.

Douglas
