Did you know that there are free ways that you can get links back to your blog overnight? That after a few days they can number in hundreds? No matter what you market on internet at some point you'll face issue of increasing number of visitors to your site. What most people don't know is that there are literally hundreds of ways to get free traffic. Here we'll focus on three overlooked ways to get additional traffic to your site using a blog.
The third most overlooked way to bring traffic to your site with a blog is to read and comment on other blogs.
Now, maybe you've done this before but stopped, because you're becoming concerned about being considered a link-spammer. In that case, leave a link to your site after your comments, instead of in comment form that hot links it.
In near future, blogmasters will be able to use special code to prevent spam in their comments section, so this will become less of a concern.
Besides, getting clicks from people who read comments, or visits from search engine spiders through your comments, isn't necessarily your direct objective, though it’s definitely a plus.
What you want to do via commenting is to enter blog community that corresponds to your target market. Get to know who players are and make agreements with them to cycle traffic between you.
Or lurk to find out where your target market typically hangs out when they're online – you’d be surprised at how many inexpensive and targeted advertising sources you can find through this method.
(If you're looking to get linked, there's another way that we'll go over next.)
This tip has earned me a few dozen links from prominent blogs in past four days alone.
These links are worth ten times a reciprocal link because they send targeted traffic from established sources, and come from experts with records of proven results.
You can be sure these kinds of people will check you out before they linked to you, since they may be judged by quality of information they share.
The second method to more blog traffic is most confusing for newer people, and this is probably reason its benefits remain overlooked.
In simplest of terms, Trackback is kind of a remote commenting system that incorporates linking. It allows reader to follow a topic around web to see other bloggers remark on same subject. It enables publisher to remotely cite references to issue on which they've written.
Once you've made yourself familiar with blogging community you have entered, you can often pick up pulse of conversations within your site's theme. Then, when you see issues that you want to expound on, you can send other site a notification to let them know you cited them on your blog. That link will appear on their site, and often draws visitors to you.
Bloggers who use Trackback often enjoy greater control over this function in their blogs than they do over linking, as they have option to reject your reference - so there is a lesser incidence of fraudulent linking. That also gives your link a greater chance of being displayed.
