Blogging Traffic Sources

Most people believe that the best way to get visitors to your blog is by getting links from other websites.While this is a good way to build your traffic ,there are several other ways that you should consider.One of the most overlooked methods of generating traffic to your blog is to turn your blog posts into smaller articlesand simply recycle them as articles to be submitted to article directories.By re using all of the content that you have already written on your blog, you will be cutting your workload in half.Just make sure that your articles are helpful, offer valuable information or help people solve their problems.Article directories collect articles of similar themes together in the one place and they get thousands of visitors per
day.The great thing about submitting your articles to these directories is that you are exposing your name to the thousands
of people visiting them for free. You will also need to include a resource box where you can include your blog
details,a simple biography and so on.This is an excellent way of generating traffic to your blog and is easy to do!.Joining internet forums are also a great way to improve your traffic. Just make sure that the forum is based on your
niche. It is quite easy to find forums in your niche,to do this just go to any search engine and type in the name of your
niche+forum,so for example if your niche is dog grooming ,you would type in dog grooming+forum, its that easy!.When searching for forums ,it is a good idea to make sure that the forum has a lot of active members and a lot of current entries.You can check the dates of the last entries for some idea how often people are posting on your chosen forum.People will start noticing you if you post useful and valuable information and they will pay attention to what you say.Most forums will allow you to include a link to your blog in the signature line which will be at the bottom
of every post that you make.This is the same type of link that you will use when posting articles.If people find your
posts to be helpful and valuable they will click and visit your blog.Posting helpful information will also build your
credibility in the eyes of your visitors and this is important, especially if you are selling your own products on your
blog or if you are recommending other products as an affiliate.If they are convinced that you are an expert in the
field then they will be more likely to trust you and spend their money.
