Do you feel like your blog is encountering a sudden traffic jam? You’ve set up your blog, crafted a message, and now you’re wondering how to get more traffic. There might be a sudden halt in website visitors that leaves you feeling like you did something wrong. It can happen at any stage of your blog cycle, beginning, middle or end. It is inevitable.
Before we have a look at how to increase traffic to your blog, it is essential to consider why you want more traffic. Are you just in it for the fame, or do you sincerely want to be a helpful resource to others? If you are just blogging to become famous, we have one tip for you; Quit now! If you are blogging because of self-serving reason, you’ll never allow your blog to grow into its full potential. The truth is that people don’t want you to talk about yourself; they are more interested in what you have to offer for them.
Don’t try to transform yourself into some sort of blogging rock star. Shift your focus on being a helpful resource to your readers instead. We are not saying that you shouldn’t talk about yourself at all. It is healthy to share personal experiences and discuss what you’ve learned through first-hand experience, but make sure that your blog is well balanced.
Here are some helpful tips to get more traffic to your blog:
- Write attractive headlines
- Be witty, creative and remarkable
- Leave thoughtful comments on other people’s blogs
- Consider public speaking as a means to make people more aware of your online presence
- Have organized posts with headings and subheadings
- Share your content on Facebook
- Blog consistently
- Do a guest post on someone else’s blog
- Create killer content, and be original
- Write in the second person, and use words like “you”, not “me”
It’s only natural that bloggers will eventually hit a plateau. Everyone needs help to reach audiences beyond their initial reach from time to time. It happens to all of us, and it’s natural to consider how you are going to increase your traffic.
Even the best of the best get stuck sometimes. Therefore it’s necessary to have a “jump starter” list, like the one we used above on hand.
