How Can I Increase My Blog Traffic for Free?

Traffic is the back bone of every blog. Without visitors, your blog content is useless because no one is reading what you offer or teach. Many bloggers get frustrated and quit blogging if they can’t get their blogs noticed. Below are some tips that would surely help you increase your blog traffic. 1. Social Media
Successful bloggers uses social media strategies to build their blog popularity. With Facebook and Twitter having millions of users, failing to syndicate your blog content to these platforms is a big mistake.
Try opening a Facebook and Twitter account for your blog and syndicate each post you make to those accounts. There are free services like “Twitter Feed”, “Networked Blogs” that can automatically do that for you. You can read: ” How To Make Blog Post Automatically Appear On Facebook and Twitter” to learn how I use those two services.
Apart from syndication, making your content easy to share is also a good strategy to increase your blog traffic. All you need to do is allow people to share your posts to different social media platforms to your blog and see how popular your posts would be. You can install the floating share barto allow your readers share your posts with ease.
Moreover, do not under estimate the power of Linkedin, Scoop.it, Stumbleuponand Google+. You can also check out : ” Traffic-Pulling Formulas for Posting on Facebook”. 2. Domain Name
Buying a domain namefor your blog can give you a world wide exposure. A domain name is a blog online identity, and if you are using a free domain name like. wordpress.comor. blogspot.com, there is a good chance of people to think less of it.
Furthermore, blogs using free domain names rarely rank as good as blogs with custom domain names in search engines. Though I know many popular blogs that are still using.blogspot, the chance of making it with free a domain name is very low. If you are still using a free blogspot address, you can consider changing it to a custom domain. 3. Guest Blogging
Writing articles for other blogsgives bloggers an opportunity promote their blogs. This can be done by attaching a link back to their blogin the articleorin the author bio. This would help increase your blog traffic as well Google ranking.
Imagine, what you stand to gain if you write guest posts for sweetlife51; a blog with over 1,000 RSS subscribers, thousands of Facebook fans and twitter followers. 4. SEO
For you to rank high in search results, search engines must be able to determine that your site is relevant to the search queries people are using to find the information your niche covers.
You should consider learninghow to use Google Keyword toolwhen composing your posts and make sure your target keyword appears in your post url, title, first paragraph and throughout the contentbut do not over-do it. Put your readers in mind when writing your posts.

6 Blogging Errors that Can Ruin Your Blog

http://www.naijalife51.blogspot.com
Today on this blog, I’ll be exposing you to 6 Blogging Errors that have killed thousands of blogs. I believe your joy is to see your blog soar high and not die. Then, you’ve to master these 6 little Errors that have ruined many blogs out
there. I want to explain this as brief as possible so just open your mind towards this post In 3 minutes time, you’re done reading.

1. Neglect of Personal Branding
If you fail to brand your blog, believe me your blog is going nowhere. Personal branding is very important. This is what the big bloggers out there have been using to promote their blogs. Many new bloggers fail to understand this and it
has been the major stumbling block for their blogs success. Successful bloggers are those that have been able to brand their blogs. Branding your blog will help you to earn your deserved voice in the blogosphere; when you fail to do this, your blog is certain to remain unknown.
A blogger recently asked us why his two year old blog has failed to remain recognized despite his great contents and good knowledge of SEO. I immediately checked out his blog and the answer
was very obvious; he has failed to add a bit of personal branding to it. If you’ll agree with me, a two year old unrecognised blog is as good as dead. Want your blog to live? The solution is “Brand it!”

2. Neglect of SEO
I laugh at many bloggers who claim not to be concerned about search engine optimisation. I’m sure you’re aware that most of the traffic directed to your site is from search engines. Though, there are other ways of getting traffic to your blog, search engine remains the number one source of traffic to your website.
Many new bloggers claim learning SEO is very stressful so they just write their posts and ignore. building it up for search engines. These categories of bloggers are the ones whose blogs fail in few months of existence. Ask me why?
Yes, their blogs fail since 80% of traffic to their blogs will be from search engines and getting highly ranked on search engines is through Search Engine Optimization, then the answer is just as simple as the formula below. No SEO = Low SERPs Rank = Low Traffic = Dead
blog. Now you can see why making your post search engine friendly is very good. If you know little or nothing about search engines optimisation, then read 3 Basic SEO Tips for Newbies.

3. Neglect of Blog Security
Recently a top blog got hacked with the blogger losing over 200 posts. Your blog security should not be treated with levity. As hackers are getting more dangerous day by day, so must your blog security get tighter! Don’t allow your blog to fall a victim of these attacks when you’ve the opportunity to protect your blog with many security plugins out there.

4. Not Replying to Insightful Comments
Readers don’t visit your blog for fun except if you run a comedy blog. They’ve come for the purpose of seeking solutions to their problems. Your post is of no use when you don’t provide
answers to the questions asked in the comment section. You should understand that your blog only exists because you still have them. If you want them to
believe that our blog is about them and not you, then you’ve to answer their questions and appreciate people who state how your post has helped them.
Imagine how confused a student will be when he is taught a whole new topic without being allowed to ask questions. This is exactly how your readers feel when you don’t answer their questions on your blog. Of course, you may not
know it all; the best thing is to provide a useful link to a source that has their answers. Many bloggers don’t like doing this because they feel it is a waste of time. This is an erroneous belief, replying to comment will only increase readers’ confidence in your blog and help you gain more trust from them.
But if you choose to ignore comments, then your readers will have to wander off to a greener pastures where their questions will be answered and appreciated. This’ll slowly lead to a dying traffic. Again remember,
A Blog without Traffic = A Dying blog.

5. Not Backing Up Your Blog
I talked earlier about a top blogger whose blog got hacked. This blogger made not just the Error of having a weak security defence but also failed to back up his file before the attack. Although you won’t know whether or not a hack attack is coming your way, it is essential to always back up your file which includes your
posts. Many professional bloggers are always too engrossed with the writing process of Blogging that they forget how disastrous it is to lose their files.
Apart from getting hacked, there’re many more ways you can lose your blog files therefore prevention is better than cure. Even in this case, there is no cure, once you lose your files without having them backed up there is no way to go about it than starting again. Smart bloggers understand how important it is to back up their blog files. It is a very simple process; all you have to do is to install a plug in.

6. Not Networking with other Bloggers Many new bloggers are too shy to introduce their blogs to experienced blogger; the fear of rejection has gotten over them.
This will retard the growth of your blog. Of course almost everyone has once been rejected. You’ve to connect yourself to other bloggers whether big or small. Failure to do this leads to a stunted blog; the truth is you can’t blog alone. You need people to refer you if your blog is to
grow fast. Some other bloggers who aren’t new also commit this Error of not networking with other bloggers. They see Blogging as a “do it alone thing”. They’re
jealous of other successful bloggers so they see no reason to interact with them.
This is a toxin that can kill your blog faster than other factors. Now you’ve learnt the reasons behind many blogs’ failure. Some bloggers failed to realise the above Errors and their blogs entered extinction. I hope since you’ve been revealed to these hints; you will prevent these Errors from affecting your dream to become a successful blogger. P.S. – Hey!

There are many tricks you can use in making RSS subscribers visit your blog. Put a video in your post and see many of them come to your site to view it. If you are using Feedburner to publish your feeds,enable social sharing buttons in your feeds. This way, your subscribers can share your posts to social networks via their email, browser or rss reader. This really creates more social media presence for your blog.

If you don’t know about guest posting, then you are probably new to blogging. Some blogs allow you to write guest postsand publish on their website. If you write well and you are able to get your post published on sites with high PR and large readership, you are on your way to getting massive traffic. This is possible because you are allowed to add at least one link back to your blog in your byline and you are sure to get quality backlinks to your blog.

5 Business Planning Principles for Small Businesses

Business Planning Guidelines Make Business Planning Easier

1) Business planning needs to be based on real, timely information. Suppose a group of Neanderthals gets together
and forms a business called Caveman Inc. Their business plan is based on killing big things that will provide lots of meat. But none of them knows what kinds of “big things” might be out there or how they might kill one of them if they find one.
Before you can engage in useful business
planning, you need to gather the information that will allow you to identify priorities and make decisions. This information may include demographic data, market research, labour market information, competitive intelligence etc.

2) Business planning needs to be action-based. Imagine Caveman Inc. having a business planning session. The team meets, waves their clubs around, deliberates and decides that killing a
Tyrannosaurus Rex is a worthy goal for their business. Then they all continue to sit around the fire in the cave. Goals are good things. You need them for
direction. But without planning actions to
undertake to achieve your goals, nothing will be accomplished.

3) Business planning needs to identify risks and challenges.
The Caveman Inc. team has finally left the cave on their Tyrannosaurus Rex hunt. Their hunt is successful in that they find a T. Rex. Unfortunately, they soon discover that individually running up to the T. Rex and trying to bonk it with a club is not a successful way to kill a Tyrannosaurus Rex – and suffer many injuries.
Looks like they should have taken a little more time in their business planning session on the risks and challenges of their plan. Successful business planning involves not only assessing potential risks but coming up with ways to mitigate them.

4) Business planning needs to be ethical.
While licking their wounds from their
Tyrannosaurus Rex hunt, Caveman Inc. discovers that there’s another group of Neanderthals in the vicinity – and worse, they’re after a T. Rex, too.
They immediately abandon their business plan, rush out, and try to kill off the other group. There are all kinds of strategies that will increase your business’s profits. But before you make them part of your business planning, ask yourself if they are ethical. In other words, do they
support or enhance your values and the values that you hope are shared by society? Remember that morals should not be bound by borders. If your conscience says it would be wrong here, it’s wrong in another country, too.

5) Business planning efforts need to be
measured and evaluated. Having chased the other group away, the Cavemen Inc. team decides to give their original
plan another try. However, when they find a Tyrannosaurus Rex they try to do exactly what they did before, and when trying to bonk the creature with their clubs, the entire team is wiped out.
If only the Caveman Inc. team had evaluated their plan and amended it! Carrying out business planning efforts and not bothering to measure and evaluate them won’t necessarily lead to
disaster, but it will certainly waste your time and money. How can you get to where you want to go if you don’t even know what you’ve accomplished so far? And how can you make new plans if you don’t know if the old ones were effective or not? Don’t put your business into the position of a Caveman Inc.! Business planning is critical if you want your business to survive and thrive. By
being sure that your business planning adheres to these five business planning principles, you can ensure that your business planning moves your business ahead rather than just being an expensive waste of time. Ready to plan? See Quick-Start Business Planning
for putting together the basics of a business plan that will invigorate your business for the course of a year in just a pair of two to three hour business planning sessions. Susan Ward Small Business:
