Ride the Problogger Wave and Double Your Traffic
Have you tried everything you know to do and can’t make any real money blogging? Darren at Problogger has been doing a 31 day thing that has offered countless tips from bloggers all over the world to help you be successful with your blog. Are you doing it all? Are you still wondering what else you can do to bring in the visitors to your site?
Here is what I have learned the past month. I have posted a few posts on Darren’s blog. At first I figured it won’t be worth a lot but some link-love and with a pagerank from Google coming up this can’t hurt as I am trying to get MoreMerchant.com to a PR6 as it is right on the bubble. So I posted a couple of blog posts and Darren was nice to put them up.
At the same time I made my feeds full text and cleaned up my blog a bit. So basically I was putting my best foot forward.
The initial results are in from all that I did. My Feed readers are up to a more decent number. In fact they have doubled. My visitors to the site have increased by double as well. Also take a look at my Alexa. Alexa is not a tool to live by but is a decent gauge.
See the jump and how it coincides with the Problogger August links? Pretty awesome. So you see how links on Problogger can help you? When Darren allows you to submit links to his readers, I recommend you do it. Provide valuable content to Problogger readers and in return get more readers to your blog.
Ride the Problogger wave. How else can you use this? What if you did guest posts for various sites? Do you know how much this helps? Once I did a guest post for a site and ended up getting over 400 visitors the first day. This wasn’t a guest post on a main name site, but a little site. You are welcome to submit a guest article to moremerchant. I am going on vacation and would love to help you out by posting some of your articles. So use guest posting as a wave to catch.
How else? Comment on other blogs. Take part on the blogging community. Come on! Catch the wave! If you build other sites, your site will be built in return.
So Catch the Wave, do guest posts, comment, and build the blogging community.
