How I got Traffic to my Blog




Many people seem to have a common lament
"I was sharing my thoughts on one blog, and nobody cared… 
What can I do to get people to read my blog?"
Today I want to talk about how I got 100 hits on my blog in 36 hours, using what I learned from the Empower Network.
I remembered seeing the videos that David Wood and David Sharpe presented me with, and seeing how they actually got me to their sites.
What was that “magic” that made me click?
Turns out it was Target MarketingShowing the people interested in your topic, your content, and understanding how to present what you want people to see, what you want them to know, and above all else, having a firm grasp on understanding how to show the person interested, your unique content.
So, how is it done? How do you get people to read your stuff? How do you get people to buy your stuff?
Well first you have got to have something to “sell” that people want.
Even if you’re not in direct sales.
This will help you get traffic 
Look guys, don’t be fooled, even if you’re not selling something for money, you’re still advertising for whatever motivates you! Even if it’s just for that “warm and fuzzy” feeling of knowing someone is genuinely interested in what you have to say. Wanting to connect.
You want to generate leads, hits, and get that “sale” even if that “sale” is just a comment, or someone who’s truly interested in you.
So what have you got?
This is the first question you need to ask yourself. What is it you want to blog about? Nobody wants to read a crappy blog.
Keep it simple
Write about what you love, what you learned, what you’ve accomplished, and what you want to share! What you want to accomplish!
There! Now that you have quality in your post, you can start showing people.
Go to Bloggers.com and become a member, share your link in the talks, people are always asking for links!
But don’t spam it!
 Use key words and make sure they have relevance to your topic!
Create a facebook page, (here's mine btw)and share your blogs there and tell your story!
Tell your friends and family!
Join Google+ and get a blogger account, and share your blogs with blogging groups on google!
Become friends with bloggers! This makes the most sense!
Comment on fresh posts, and show intelligence, be confident,  not obnoxious.
Use your twitter account, link it to facebook!
This is what got me my first 100 visits!
It’s pretty simple actually.
But if you really want to get people’s attention, make videos, and be real with people.
Thanks for reading!
Share this or comment on it, thanks!
