traffic-controller

The truth is we all need traffic to keep our blog moving. Traffic gives us the mural to continue writing, knowing people are reading your blog post but without traffic, you won’t have the courage to move on which will leave your blog hopeless. Let’s just put it this way; No traffic → No reader → No product to sell. If you do not have traffic coming to your blog, you will not get people viewing and reading your blog post and if you do not have readers reading that lovely post of yours, you will never sell your product which will leave you and your pocket frustrated and helpless. When you get that good amount of traffic then you, your blog and your pocket will be smiling, I’m I right or I’m I right?

In the blogging world all bloggers are greedy, yes! The reason I said that is because no matter how much traffic they get, they still need more.

There is no popular blog/ site that doesn’t need traffic so since we are fighting for traffic, we are going to be unleashing a top secrete (well not that secrete) 3 strong ways of driving traffic to our blog.

3 POSSIBLE WAYS OF GETTING TRAFFIC TO YOUR SITE

The 3 ways I’m getting traffic to my blog are:

Ok! Because you submitted your blog to like one or two blog directories or social engine and you’re hoping for a miracle to take place? no way brother, to get that traffic you must push your work hard, I mean harder to the eyes of people you want to convert.

Let me tell you a bit about my journey so far; When I started blogging, I do not know a thing about traffic or what traffic was but I just know that my contents were great, after some months I realize I am not getting that feed as i needed. Why? because i was not promoting or should i say making effort. Letter on, i made a lot of researches on “how to get traffic to ones blog for free” and after my research, I gathered all the information i could find and put them to practice and guess what? The info I gathered did helped me a lot.

How did I increase my ranking? First I submitted my blog to as many social bookmarking sites as possible and I also submitted my blog links to as many social networking sites I could lay my hands on. They did help my blog a lot as per back links and credibility on search engines and also give me that traffic I needed.

The below sites also helped me greatly in driving traffic to my blog

With these sites, you’ll get tremendous amount of traffic (believe you me) and also do not forget to drop your site’s url to the 250 bookmarking sites for backlinks and faster indexing of your blog by search engine.

  1. Hey Babanature,

    Well that was a great post. Not only did you share you traffic methods but more information with each one. I think this is the area that a lot of people seem to have difficulty with. Not understanding what they are suppose to do or how to do it! You’ve explained all of these so that everyone should be able to understand.

    So glad you’re having so much luck with these methods. Isn’t it fun!
