I have Google AdSense on the HOME page of my blog and have made $27 so far. How can I increase my blog traffic?

Write something interesting that lots of people want to read.  They’ll soon find it.
 

I have heard that google adwords only gets a 3-4% click through, is this true?
Is google adwords really the best option to get traffic to my blog?
How soon will I see trafffic come to my blog?

use SEO to increase your blog traffic, at least you’ll not paying Adwords
there is so many ways how to get traffic for your blogs but the question is are you willing to pay or not if you do, use Adwords, but if have low budget use SEO for long term Investment but unfortunately SEO need times at least three month or more,anyway if you using Adwords don’t forget to optimize your Adwords, use Google Analytic , to get more specific location about your niche, do some keyword research, to get cheap prices, and buy some e-books or download about Adwords free e-book , believe me using Adwords without any knowledge can kill your pocket,

PS. use hubpages to get Instant traffic its much better than other blogs, believe me you will enjoy using hubpages, cause hubpages is so easy lol

Thanks!
Vincent, spectacular answer sir thankyou!

The topic really isn’t even that important. It’s how well you can market and promote it. Internet marketers have very high traffic blogs with content that’s complete crap. There are great content sites with no traffic at all

Hey everyone,

As the title says: how do I go about increasing web site traffic to my blog? I’ve got a blog that I’ve been working on for ages and I can’t seem to get any free traffic to it

I’ve heard about paying for advertising on google, but I can’t afford that… what can I do?

You have to write useful content.
You have to use social networking sites like Yahoo buzz, Digg, Facebook, twitter.
You have to find similar blog to yours and participate in comments over there.

Don’t just think for success very early, it takes time. First put your attention in writing content then think of earning.

So I have finally created my male fashion blog: http://blancexpressions.tumblr.com/
And now that I have got it created, a few things are missing, namely being blog traffic (i.e. comments, followers, etc.), how would I bring traffic to my fashion blog?

Hi, Deion!
Well, there are many ways to get traffic. You can try social bookmarking, article writing, comment in related blog and put your link there, forum ,yahoo answer or others. The methods is free, but most of them is time consuming and takes a long time to see a great result.

If you want to see the traffic immediately you can use Google Adword or PPC, but the truth is they will cost you a lot of money. An alternaative is using PPV and it’s the method used by Mo Latif to generate more than 100.000 visitors/day in his site and not cost you as much as Google Adword/PPC.

My blog is vinod-parambil.blogspot.com which has been online since a few months and the blog could be seen hardly in the web…so I would like to know the ways in which I can increase the traffic… tx in advance.

Hi Dear !!

ten ways to increase your blog traffic :

1. Create link clusters within your blog

A link cluster is a group of links that you can point at a post or page to improve its search engine ranking. Let’s say you have a post that’s ranked for ’stupid business ideas’. Edit 10 of your other posts to create links (using ’stupid business ideas’ as the anchor text) to the ’stupid business ideas’ post and you will surely move up in Google for that keyword. This process can be implemented in about 10 minutes and can be used for any keyword your site ranks for or is trying to rank for.

2. Rework HTML title tags of trafficked posts

By watching your stats, you can often identify posts that get search traffic from a keyword, even though the keyword isn’t listed in the HTML title of the post. By editing your posts’ HTML titles to add the keywords they cover, you can strengthen the rankings and therefore the traffic that the post generates. You can easily make a difference with this method in less than 20 minutes. This method combines very well with #1.

3. Invite your readers to connect with you on StumbleUpon and Facebook

You can never ever have too many friends on SU and Facebook. Inviting existing readers to find you on these services with a post should take less than 20 minutes.

4. Save your best posts for the best times of the week

Writing a home-run post on a Saturday afternoon will probably happen from time to time. However, does your blog have good traffic on Saturdays? Analyzing your blog’s stats to determine when it naturally has the most traffic can get more eyes on a great post, which will translate to more social votes and more links. If you have created the post of your life, wait for a good day to publish – it will cost you about 1 minute on a later date to put it up.

5. Edit your post one more time

How can you improve your title? How can you improve your first paragraph? Small details in your post, especially in the beginning of your post, can make an enormous difference in its ability to draw social traffic and links. You can definitely improve your title, first paragraph, formatting, and grammar within 30 minutes.

6. Stop writing about yourself. Start solving problems

Surfers become readers when a blog provides something that is wanted. A casual visitor may read your blog because they find training, answers to problems, entertainment, or something else they want. This more than likely will mean that they won’t want to read about you, your girlfriend, your cats, your kids, or your catastrophes (unless you have a personal blog that your friends read). Discontinuing the off-topic posts will help you to develop more repeat traffic and takes exactly 0 minutes to implement.

7. Subscribe to the feeds of your industry’s major players

That way, you won’t miss important news releases. When news breaks in your industry, there will be a lot of extra traffic searching for information on the event. Adding your thoughts will almost always generate extra traffic. Subscribing to the feeds of your industry’s top sites should take no more than 15 minutes.

8. Give a great post to a prominent blog

Let’s say that you took the time to write something great. Donating your post to a great blogger can help you to create a win-win. The great blogger gets a great piece of content that will bring him social traffic and links and you can create exposure for your name and brand. Emailing your post to a great blogger or blog takes less than 10 minutes.

9. Go to the store

Look at magazines. Pay special attention to the types of titles that are used on the covers. Write down the most interesting titles and think about what makes them interesting. In order to generate buzz around a post, a great title is an absolute necessity. More on this topic here: The Cosmo Headline Technique for Blogging Inspiration. You should be able to find some good title ideas in about 30 minutes.

10. Answer your email and comment questions

Nothing will show a reader that you care more than answering an question (even if you have already answered that question 100 times on your site). Why do people read your blog? Because you solve their problems. Why will they come back again and again to your blog? Because you solve their problems. Answering a person’s email or comment question should take less than 5 minutes.

I am a newbie at blogging, but my blog is about my home business. I need traffic in order to keep my sales thriving, food on table etc.. I am new to all of this, advice welcomed!!! Thanks!!!

1. Good content/quality post - make sure your posts are always relevant to your home business, and don’t just post pictures. You need some pictures, but most important text. After all, search result is not picture driven, but rather content driven. Another thing to keep in mind when you’re blogging is use "keywords" that is relevant your home business.

2. Links to your site - if you have friends or know your friends have friends who have blogs, ask them if they would help you out by having a link to your site on their site. This is actually pretty important when it comes to search engine result ranking. Another thing you can do it, find other sites that is relevant to your home business in any way or consumer report/review sites and see if they would have a link to your site on theirs as well.

3. Title tags & meta tags - it is important to have "keywords" in these tags and it’s focused on the content of your blog. I know this doesn’t really explain it. The best way is to research on this yourself.

Having a blog is one of the essential features of owning an online business. If you are just starting an online business, usually you are concerned about how much money it’s going to cost you to run your business. Blogging is one free way that you can advertise quickly and effectively, so you don’t want to go without.

Once you have set up a free blog through Blogger or Wordpress, you are on your own to create content for your blog. Creating quality content becomes very important if you want to drive traffic to your blog.

Of course the reason you want traffic is because you want to advertise your products and services that you may offer on your website. You can visit www.your-own-blog.com Another reason to drive traffic to your blog when starting an online business is that you want visitors, and you want repeat visitors.

If your website visitors are exposed to your offers multiple times, chances are more likely that they will come to know, trust, and respect you. It often takes more than one visit before people will consider buying from you, but it’s your quality content that will catch their attention in the first place and establish that trust and respect before they buy.

A good way to get repeat visitors is to use RSS on your blog so that visitors can subscribe to your blog and see updates as they happen. Even after that, and some good quality content, it is still often a challenge when starting an online business to get traffic to your blog.

One way to solve this problem is by signing up for blog traffic exchanges that are much like regular traffic exchanges that display your links based on a credit system. For example, you can sign up for Blog Soldiers and everyone who uses the system will get a chance to read your blog when they surf for credits.

A more effective way to build up your blog traffic when starting an online business would be to get involved with blog circles - a network of other bloggers. If you are at all familiar with the new social bookmarking trend in internet marketing, then getting involved in a blog network is very similar.

The idea in social bookmarking is to connect with others online who are also starting an online business, for example. You can publicly bookmark other’s posts and everyone can access not only your posts but those you’ve bookmarked. By commenting on other’s posts, you create a ton of new traffic to your site.

A blog network is much the same, where you read content that you are interested in under a common blog category and links are shared within the network by other bloggers. This is much like commenting on a blog and leaving your link at the end for others to access. This creates a whole new wave of traffic to your site, or goes to www.blog-and-ping.com in addition to your other advertising efforts.

Not only can you get more traffic by joining a blog network, but if you want you can even make some money at it depending what network you join. If you do a Google search for “blog networks” you will see the different kinds you can get involved with.

Starting an online business can be intimidating, but if you use free advertising methods like blogging to build your traffic with good quality content, then you will find that other bloggers will want to link to you. Once you’re in a network of blog links, you are sure to see your traffic and earnings rise!
