Make Money At Home - Blogging

When you make money at home you do a lot of surfing on the web. While searching I came across this amazing blog post from http://www.team-schuman.com/blog about increasing the traffic to your blog. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

How To Increase Your Blog Traffic


One of the most common questions I see in internet discussion forums is how to increase your blog traffic.

Good question!

First of all be sure and host your own blog. Do not host it at Blogger.com or some other free blogging platform.

I just read again where someone was hosting several blogs at Blogger and built up an internet income of almost $2,000 a month only to have Google cancel them for some reason. Now they have no blogs and no income and must start from scratch.

When you host your own blog you control everything about it and that will not happen to you. If you use Blogger as your blogging platform be sure and host it in your hosting account.

Now back to how to increase your blog traffic.

1. If you like to blog then spend several hours a day doing it. You need to get noticed and this will really jump start your efforts.

2. Develop a list of longtail keyword phrases for your site and target those in your blog title and in the intro and closing of each blog article.

3. Try making 10 blog posts of 250 words each day. Hire a blog writer if you need a little help at times.

4. Bookmark your blog articles to the top social directories. I use OnlyWire.com to quickly bookmark to multiple directories.

5. Take the same article and post it at EzineArticles.com. This is the largest directory in the world and will help you get more traffic and backlinks.

Do this everyday and you will slowly begin to see more traffic, newsletter subscribers, and sales.

It may take you hundreds of hours to become an expert at one form of online advertising, but stick with it until you have good traffic coming in.

Shoot to get 500 unique visitors a day. Then you can add another form of advertising to branch out and help you target even more traffic.

Now you know how to increase your blog traffic!
