RSS feedUsing social bookmarking to get traffic to your blog is a newer way to bring in traffic. The way this works is that you go to the social bookmarking sites create an account and then submit you link to your blog. When you submit a link you are able to put tags with it.
The reason that you use tags is so that you will be able to find it later but you are not the only one that can find it. Putting the proper tags is very important because it allows people that are interested in what your blog is about to find it.
Social bookmarking can provide you with a lot of high quality back links so you can get more organic traffic from the search engines. This happens because people can share your feeds with anybody that they think would be interested in your blog.
The key to really getting this to work is that you have to be social. If you sign up to social bookmarking sites and only submit feeds about your blog with out ever looking at and using other peoples feeds and sites you will end up getting kicked off of the bookmarking site.
Using forum marketing is another highly sociable way to get traffic to your blog. When you are in a forum they allow you a signature that can have links in it. You want to use something that is going to peak the interest in what ever your blog is about.
You can use Google to find forums that are related to your blog topic. To get a list of forums from Google type “forum + blog topic”.
The best way to get this to work is to only comment on the posts that you have good knowledge about. If you don’t post intelligent, well written replies then you will not be looked at seriously. The point of this is to show your expertise on the topic so that people will want to see what else you know. Do not spam the forums! If you don’t have a good answer, then don’t reply.
Article marketing is another good way to get traffic to your blog. Writing articles can be very easy to do if you are already in the forums. To write articles using the forums, find out what people are asking about the most and then either answer it for them or see what answers are already there to compose your article. Make sure that you always rewrite everything in your own words because plagiarism is a very serious charge.
If you want to see a huge increase in the traffic from the articles you’re writing then you should consider using an article submission site. An article submission site can submit unique articles to thousands of different article directories for you.
