Many make the mistake of believing that once they create a blog, people will immediately flock to it. There are millions out there so why would they visit your blog?

Here are some ways you can promote your blog

1. Create great content – everything starts with great content. Think 'Linkbait" -- or writing about stuff that would be so great that people will want to link to you. It can be a news hook where you write about something that is contrary to what everyone else is saying; resource hook where you have the only information available or humor hook.

2. Update the content regularly – make your visitors come back again and again to your blog by providing daily updates (even multiple posts per day!)

3. Submit your blog to blog directories

Yahoo http://add.yahoo.com/fast/add
dmoz: open directory project http://dmoz.org/add.html

4. Network with other bloggers – comment on their blogs, read and link to other blogs and request them to link back to you

5. Email other bloggers – pitch your post to other bloggers and hope that they will link or mention your blog

6. Use techniques to showcase your blog – examples include meme games such as the Daily Meme http://thedailymeme.com/ or blog carnivals http://blogcarnival.com/bc/

7. You can try pay per click programs such as Google Adwords http://www.google.com/adwords or Yahoo Search Marketing http://searchmarketing.yahoo.com – though the key is to carefully track your ROI and which keywords actually perform well

8. Make sure your blog is indexable by the search engines - and make sure that your titles have great keywords that your target audience are most likely to use

9. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

10. Submit articles with your blog posts. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.

@erickjose191984
thanks for the great explanation on all that. i agree much on them except that using cash $$ for gaining traffic. For newbie use cash is just a big risk. you can test all that except us.

Now i point out important point from my experience :
1. Backlink (Quantity and Quality)
2. Unique Content
3. Keyword / Niche targeting (example : health, finance, etc)
4. SEO On page

You can really know what your visitors are doing when you are using google analythics! To me it's the number 1 tool to a person that wants to make money blogging I also use safelists to get very large ammounts of traffic. It's generally better than traffic exchanges.

Submit quality articles to your blog with nice tags and keywords like banking, finance, mortgage, loan .etc and make SEO. If u post the abv tags then u will get much higher click rate in adsense
