How To Find More Readers For Your Blog?

Every newbie blogger has a question and possibly the most frequently asked question among the bloggers is: how to find new readers to your blog?

There are quite a few answers to this question. So lets check them out!

Content
Content is king. Blogging is all about writing and content. If you don’t write good content you are going nowhere. Content makes the visitors coming back for more. Both visitors and google love fresh and high quality content.

Effective Post Titles
The title of your blog post should be eye catching, to the point and simple. Write the title in a way so the reader can guess the insider of the post. Visitors are always in a hurry and you have to have something magical that can attract their attention within first 3 seconds.

Social Book Marking and Social Networking
Social book marking is the way to grab quick attention. Submit your story to Digg, reddit and to as many other book marking sites as possible. Submit the stories regardless of whether it makes the front page or not. Submit and you get 50-100 free hits, it is by far the easiest way to generate quick exposure on blogsphere.

Comment On Other Blogs
Commenting on other related blogs is probably another effective strategy in this process. Responding to comments that other people leave on your blog encourages them to keep coming back. Writing interesting or witty comments often get people to click through to see your site.

Forums
Contributing on forums related the blog niche is another good way to grab interested and hungry readers. I figured it’s a very quick way to infuse readers to a new blog is to be active in discussion forums related to the blog topic. Google for the forums that relate to blog niche and participating on the threads help to bring in more readers. Locate threads that ask for help with something you may be familiar with and share your experience. This way you build your reputation and even you can make few $$$ by throwing them your affiliate link.

Persist
Persistence is another key. Quality traffic doesn’t happen over night. It takes some time to build reputation and good reader base.

Connect With Other Bloggers
Connecting is simple. You get good relationships with other bloggers by simply posting some comments on their blog posts and giving some good advices. This is a win win situation. You give him comments, you get return comments, trackbacks, backlinks, interested visitors inspired by your interesting comments and most importantly you get a blogger friend who can come up with good advices when you are in need.

Trackbacks
Try to leave as many trackbacks as you can. Trackbacks are live links and good for SEO. Just if you are wondering, leaving trackback is easy as hell. All you have to do is refer a quality post from another blog in your blogpost with a link to that blog or blogpost. You will have a backlink on the comments section within no time.

Give Away Free Stuff
Everyone loves free. Free gets the buzz. Give away free gifts to your readers, seatback and watch the traffic flowing in. Free gift could be anything like free wordpress templates to free ebooks.

Search Engine Optimization
Optimize your blog properly and you can boost your readership. Many bloggers have reported lately that they were able to boost their readers 25-30% by properly optimizing their blogs for search engines.

Frequent posting
Other than the content, blogging is all about frequency. The more you post the more readers you have, as simple as that. I try to post frequently but due to certain circumstances I find it difficult to post on a regular basis but I try to keep contents coming in every 2-3 days.

Get links from other blogs
Getting mentioned on other sites and blogs in the same niche or from a popular blog will get you few hundreds to even thousands of readers.

Entrecard
Entrecard sends me 10-50 visitors every other day. Grab some credits, wait for a while and buy a spot on famous blogs. Waiting for the ad is worth it.

Search Engines
Lets face it, search engines can bring you incredible amount of visitors but you have to be working really hard for that. It takes time to get ranked on search engines. In the meantime you should enjoy 20-40 visitors from search engines every other day.
