So you have a blog and want to market it and make it a successful blog. How do you do this?
How do you go about getting your blog out there to be seen and known by others? How do you
draw readers and keep them coming back for more? There are many ways to get your blog out
there and known by others. This can be known as challenging for some and just quite easy for
others. If you have ever had a successful blog before then you know what it takes. You are not
going to get anywhere by just setting up a blog and hoping that people will find it and read it.
You are not going to gain any links, nor a higher search engine ranking by just having a blog.
This is all part of blog marketing. Anyone can do it, even you.
Successful blog marketing tip number one. When you first create a blog, of course it is unheard
of. No one knows anything about the blog unless you give them the link and show it to them.
However, for a new blog that has never been seen, there are many ways to get it out there and
known. You just need to know how. The first thing that you can do is to allow RSS feeds be
taken from your blog. Allow other websites and blogs to publish your same exact blog. When
you do this, they are giving you a link back to your blog, and also telling their readers all about
your blog. You will get more traffic than ever with this tool. RSS feeds are wonderful for
promoting and getting your blog out there.
Blog marketing tip number two. Update your blog frequently. We can not put enough emphasis
on this tip. If you tell your readers that you are going to update your blog daily, then do it. If you
tell them that you will be writing in your blog weekly, don’t let them down. Your readers are
what makes your blog successful. You may not realize this in the beginning, and you will have
few readers in the beginning as well, but you will eventually build a readership base and have
people checking out your blog regularly. Maybe you do not plan on telling your readers how
often you will update your blog. That is ok too. However, think about this, if you were reading a
blog on a weekly basis, and you expected to see the blog that you like to read updated at least
once a week, you would be very disappointed to find out that it was not. Sure, things happen
that might prevent you from updating, and that is expected, and excused, but week after week
Tip number three. While you are working on your readership base, and trying to gain readers,
you are going to find that commenting on blogs that are relevant to yours will surely help. Find
a blog that is on the same topic to yours, or close to it and leave comments. You can also
make a track back with your blog postings to comment on your own blog. Doing so will
probably more than likely give someone else the urge to track back to your blog. Which will be
good for it as well. Commenting on blogs that get many comments will make yours be seen by
those interested in that market. You will gain traffic and readers that way, and it is easy as well
as free.
The fourth blog marketing tip. Learn and apply SEO to your blogs. SEO is search engine
optimization. You are going to find that if you want your blog to go anywhere, you need SEO,
and you need to know how to use it to the advantage of your blog. Just like a website, a blog
will be better off optimized.
Interesting tips 🙂 adding valuable comments in other blogs of same niche and doing SEO is good for marketing blogs for free.
Yes , like in every other business you should know how to be successful and do it – but the basis of all is work – hard work – this is the very key to success and all other tips are just coming next – after the motivation and hard work! 🙂

Maybe I will try feeding RSS feeds since it is essential to promoting a blog. and I agree that it is important to update blog frequently. Perhaps I should try working on my readership too. Thanks for the interesting tips on blog marketing.
Yeap, I agree with the post that these tips are really useful to be changes made in the marketing method to improve the method of marketing rather than using the old stone age kind of working like a unpolished way of just to sell the products. I feel rather they need to have some knowledge on the product and its marketing so as market will improve with sales and better marketing knowledge and method of marketing will help in increased sales turnover as well.
Some good advice there. Especialy about updating it regularly.
I see far too many blogs that are just abandoned after a few posts or are only updated once every few months.
Very nice tips, thanks for awesome blog. if any blogger leave comment in related theme on others blog site where post should be readable and informative than sure you will get good traffic but you post only thanks or good traffic can’t generated by blog. Social book marking are wonderful for promoting and getting your blog out there as well.

.RSS or Really Simple Syndication is a useful tool for keeping updated on your favorite websites. RSS makes use of an XML code that constantly scans the content of a website for updates and then broadcasts those updates to all subscribers through a feed..RSS feeds are typically used with news sites or blogs although any website can use them to disseminate information.
Excellent post and really well summarized. Hard work and sincerity is the key of success and I am sure with quality contents you can market your blog well.
Thank you so much for your awesome tips. Will apply them to my blog and let you know how it goes.
I highly preferred blogging with SEO. It looks natural but profitable.
Seo and blog commenting is one of the best way for marketing blog.it all depend on your blog content and product to increase a traffic in your blog. rss feed is also good to get a new information about site or blog.
I personally feel that keyword research is one of the most overlooked practices in Search Engine Optimization. I feel that keyword research should be a process that involves a good amount of analysis, so that you can find the best keywords to get you the best results.
