Who the hell does not kepengin crowded blog visitors like the night market?

Although my friend blogging just for fun, if the blog flooded visitors would be seneng.

Yes, right?

Especially for those who want to make money from blogs , increasing blog visitors is a must. If more and more blog visitors of course more and more money can be generated.

Just the question is, how the hell is actually how to increase blog visitors?

This question is one of the most frequently asked questions I get. Whether it's in email, in blog comments, on facebook, anywhere.

Well on this post I will try to answer the question in accordance with what I know and I believe.

Ok, just go ahead ...

Why my blog is empty for visitors?

Before I give tips to improve blog visitors, it would not hurt us to start by finding out what might be the cause of why your blog is empty of visitors.

Based on the experience that I have, here are some things that I think often become a barrier to a blog to be able to get a lot of visitors:

1. Just learning blogging yesterday afternoon

The most obvious cause is because the new learning blogging and not have much experience about the blog.

Creating a blog is easy, everyone can do it, but to make blogs get popular and get lots of visitors is not an easy thing.

If my friend feels new to learn blogging , then do not need to be confused or worried if the blog is still empty of visitors. It is very natural because it takes time and process.

But if my friend has long blogging and blogs are still empty of visitors, then there is probably something wrong with the way ngeblognya. The solution please can continue reading.

2. Hope the visitors will come alone

Buddy must have heard of a blogger who gave advice like this:

Diligently update aja, later visitors will come alone

Actually there is nothing wrong with the advice, just in my opinion is not quite right and can be misleading.

Why?

If my buddy blogging 10 years ago maybe the way is still effective because the first not so many bloggers. In addition, the blogs are diligent updates tend to get good ranking on Google.

But now? Just a diligent capital update just will not be enough. There are many other things to note, one of which is to promote blogs in the right way.

3. Mediocre content aja

One of the key to success of a blog is the quality of content in it. If my friend wants to get a lot of visitors then consider first the quality of content on your blog.

Especially if your blog discusses topics that have been very crowded by the competition, if the content on your blog mediocre, then the edges will only drown in the middle of intense competition.

If you feel the content on your blog is still a lot to improve, then focus first to improve the content for better, do not be too thinking about how to blog flooded with visitors.

4. Consider all blogs the same

In the post I challenge how to make money from my blog once explained that blogs have a lot of types. Yups, not all blogs are the same, ranging from destination, topic, target visitors, and others vary from one blog to another blog.

Well because each blog is different, then the promotional strategy is also different. There are effective use this way, there are effective use that way, and others.

If my friend wants his blog to get a lot of visitors, then my friend should understand the differences, the reason so that my friend can find the right promotional strategy for your own blog.

Some other causes ...

In addition to some of the above, there are many other things that may be the cause of why blogs are empty of visitors. One of them is a technical problem such as a messy blog design and also loading a super heavy blog.

But the four things I have explained above are, in my opinion, the most important.

How to increase blog visitors

Well now the part that is waiting for my friend, the tips that can be done to increase visitors to your blog.

Some tips that I will give below I have applied in my own blog, but some are not or not I apply.

Please be directly listened to ya ...

1. Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Doing search engine optimization or SEO is a way of increasing the most popular blog visitors almost done by all bloggers

How come?

Because search engines are the biggest source of blog traffic on the internet.In addition, SEO is suitable for all types of blogs. Whether it's niche blogs, micro blogs, blog gado-gado, news blogs, business blogs, personal blogs, blogs aja.

But even so I do not know why there are some bloggers who think SEO is not important and just a waste of time.

SEO is important bro .... !!!

Just indeed, learning SEO is not easy because SEO is always changing from time to time. Need perseverance, patience, and unyielding spirit in order to master the science of SEO.

But ... whether to be able to get visitors from the search engines should be an SEO expert?

NO!!

This is what sometimes many bloggers misunderstand, especially beginner bloggers. To be able to get visitors from search engines my friend should not be a SEO expert, SEO expert, master SEO, or whatever. Enough with basic level SEO techniques alone is enough to help your blog get visitors from the search engines.

One of the example is:

• Do keyword research before posting.
• Make a post for Google to be liked .
• In addition, avoid SEO mistakes that are often done beginners .

2. Promotion through Social Media

Many already know that social media is the second largest source of traffic after search engines, but not a few also often complain like this:

Mas, I already share the link in the status of facebook but why are not there visitors who stop by?

Mas, I have nyebar link in the facebook group but why the blog is still empty?

Just as SEO, promotion through social media is also no science, not easy nyebar link via the status of the blog continues to flooded visitors.

Here I will not give details on how effective promotion through social media, but there are some important principles you need to know if you want to promote your blog through social media.

• Fairly active in one social media only 
  Choose social media that my friend loves, or adjust to the target of your blog visitors. If the target visitors more active on Twitter then be active on Twitter.
• Use social media as the name implies 
  Do not use social media solely to promote your blog, because I'm sure it will not work. Use social media as the name implies, that is for social activities.
• Build the reader first, new promotion 
  That is gini, manyin first number of friends or follower social media account buddy after that just do promotion.

3. Commenting on other people's blogs (blogwalking)

Commenting on someone else's blog is arguably the easiest way to increase blog visitors. Almost all bloggers must have done it. I used to be so.

Although this way will not be able to make your blog immediately crowded like the market, but in my opinion quite important especially for beginner bloggers.

I still remember very well when this blog got a comment from the visitor for the first time, nah visitors tesebut I get from the results commented on other people's blogs.

From the first comment that makes me the spirit and finally can be consistent blogging until now.

4. Free-sharing

Everyone likes free, I'm no exception. Because of this, for-for free on the blog can be an effective way to increase blog visitors.

This way I have applied since the beginning of this blog I created. Some of my friends would already know if I share the Free Blogger Template and also free Zombie Blog .

Of course there are many other things that can be shared free on blogs other than blogger templates and also zombie blogs.

Example:

• Ebook
• Software
• Audio
• Video
• Photo
• Picture Design
• And macem-macem

5. Care with visitors

This is also one that I have done since I first created this blog, which is concerned with the visitors.

Examples of such concerns can be like replying to the comments of visitors, replying to emails from visitors, and also for free for as I have explained in point number 4.

Few any visitors to your blog today, if my friend is concerned with visitors is not impossible that little visitors can be a gateway for thousands or even hundreds of thousands of other visitors.

6. Write on other people's blogs

Although I never use this way, but writing on other people's blogs or guest posts is a pretty effective way to capture readers, especially if your blog is new.

Maybe my friend was wondering:

If you can write on your own blog why should write on someone else's blog?

Because no matter how cool or how handsome the content on your blog, if your blog is new then most likely there will not be read.

Well if my friend wrote quality content on blogs of others who already have a lot of readers, then my friend can attract the attention of blog readers to visit the blog that my friend is new. And finally you get free readers.

In addition to capture the reader, guest posts are also famous mantab as one of the strategies to get quality backlinks for free. Just mantab really.

7. Active in the forum

Forums can also be a great place to attract visitors. But of course blog promotion in the forum also should not be arbitrary.

Find forums that match your blog topics and be active in them by answering questions or creating useful threads.

8. Active on Q & A site

Question and answer sites actually almost no different from the forum, only this site is more focused as a place for question and answer each other.

Buddy can be active on sites like this by answering the questions that exist, of course, while putting your blog address if necessary.

Some popular Q & A sites are:

• Yahoo! Answer
• Quora
• Answers.com
• etc.

9. Submit articles on social bookmarking sites

In addition to well known as one way to get free backlinks, social bookmarking sites can also be used as a source to get visitors.

Not a few loh bloggers who get thousands of visitors per day just by relying on social bookmarking sites.

10. Upload videos on Youtube

Youtube is the third most visited website in the world under Google and Facebook. It certainly makes youtube become one other source that is not less cool to get blog visitors.

You can upload videos on youtube about things related to the topic on your blog.

11. Create post titles that "tease"

Post title is the first part read by blog visitors. If the post title is not interesting and seem boring, then the possibility of blog visitors will be blurred first before reading postingannya.

In addition, the title of a post that "tease" can also make people who previously did not intend to read to be curious because the title is so "teasing" it.

12. Create a post that is HOT

HOT I mean not HOT that it, but the intention to write a post topic that again ngetrend.

For how to know what topics that are ngetrend, my friend can pantenginGoogle Trends .

13. Create controversial posts

This method can be very effective to invite many visitors because controversial post is very easy to spread, especially with the help of social media. But this way is also quite risky.

If you want to use this way, you must really understand what you wrote and must be ready with the negative effects (get a lot of haters).

14. Place PPC ads

I think there are rarely bloggers who blog promotion by installing PPC ads, the reason is definitely because it must ngeluarin capital.

But if my friend has a lot of money, it would not hurt to install a PCC ad.

In this case you can use a service from Google called Google AdWords .

15. Place ads on other people's blogs

Or if you do not want complicated, my friend can also advertise directly on the blog or website of others.

Try a blog that my friend has the same topic or at least related.

16. Put the blog address on the shirt

A slightly unusual way, namely by installing the blog address on the shirt after that wear the clothes in a crowded place for many people who see it.

17. And many more ...

In addition to the ways I have explained at length above, there are still dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of other ways that can be done to increase blog visitors.

Conclusion

After reading the post above maybe now my friend confused:

Which one should I do?

If my new buddies learn blogging, then I suggest to use the way according to the easiest buddy first. Well, if you've had enough experience about new blogs deh try a rather difficult way.

If just ngandelin easy way aja can not?

Can. The important thing to be patient waiting for years until the blog crowded visitors.

Should you wait a long time?

Because the difficulty level of the way done is usually directly proportional to the results obtained.
