Welcome to the blog guys.
Today I’m going to be sharing with you 5 ways to increase your blog traffic,
the site is now a year old and I choose not to call myself a newbie blogger
anymore, because I’ve learnt a lot about blogging (still learning everyday though)
and today I’ve decided to share these tips that helped me improve my blog
traffic. Any serious blogger will strive to get traffic and engagement on their
site because it just shows how well they are doing in the blogosphere and also
one of the keys to getting potential advertisers, partnerships, sponsors and so
on. This topic sounds so cliché and a lot of bloggers have talked about it but you
can never get enough knowledge on this, why? Because the blogosphere is divided
into different Niches and even Sub Niches, what works for a style blogger may
not necessarily work for a beauty blogger so we need to keep expanding on this
topic.
I got this sweater dress
from Dresslily, its
sweater weather already *sighs* not looking forward to the cold. I got the dress in
this color because I don’t really have any outfit in the color green. The dress
arrived on time and it’s beautiful, you can tell from the pictures, the dress is
true to size and flattering on the body, however I would have loved it if it
was a little thicker than it is. Like what I’m wearing? The links to what I’m
wearing are down below; click them to make a purchase.

5
WAYS TO
INCREASE YOUR BLOG TRAFFIC
1.
CONSISTENCY
I can’t stress on this
enough, but one of the important ways to drive more traffic to your blog is to
stay consistent. You can’t post once in two weeks or once in a month and be dissatisfied
with your slow traffic. Your audience feel this is what you’ve dedicated your
time to so they expect consistency because you don’t expect them to keep
coming back to the same article every time, they will eventually stop checking
at some point and forget your blog existence. I’m not saying it’s mandatory to
post every day in a week, it’s too much pressure coming from a blogger, but if
you can they why not and be sure to stay consistent. If you can’t, then at least
make sure there is a post twice in a week on the site. Google gives higher
priority to websites with fresh content, so if you want to get more attention
on search engines, update your blog at least twice a week.
2.
TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA
Thank God for the way social
media have evolved, Twitter has 271 million users every month, Facebook has
almost 1 billion active users, LinkedIn has over 300 million active users, not
to talk of Instagram, Snapchat, Google plus, Blog Loving and so many. Leveraging
these networks requires patience, study them and know where you’d drive more
traffic from based on your blog niche which is very important. I wouldn’t advice
using all the social media, no it’s just too much, find 4 or 5 and be active
there. Also, there are a lot of groups on Facebook, Google plus and so on where
bloggers like you and I can join and share content and blog posts for other
bloggers to view and network there as well. For Instagram, use a lot of known and
popular hash tags, to be honest that’s how I get more likes on there from
different accounts, it’s so effective. If you don’t have your own Facebook Page
for your blog I’d employ you to do so, it’s another effective way of driving
more traffic to your blog. Don’t forget, if you consistently employ a strategy
of participation in groups you follow and also promote your blog post across
social media networks, your blog traffic, engagement and even fans and
followers will increase tremendously.
3.
WRITE
ATTRACTIVE TITLE
When I started I used to
just write ‘White dress’ ‘Two Piece Floral Outfit’ yah it was blah…Titles like
that will have you wondering ‘what did I do wrong’ It happens at the beginning or middle of blogging,
let’s face it, we’ve all gone through it, or still go through it. To drive traffic to your blog write really
attractive title to make people curious as to what the post will be about. In other
words write a title that people would want to click on, I can’t give any tips
on that, that’s one of the problems we face as bloggers, title names! We just
have to make research based on our niche and figure out what our audience might
be interested in. Your blog titles are as important as the content itself, no
matter how great the pictures are, blog titles are the icing on the cake.
4.
INVEST
IN YOUR BLOG
To be honest I feel we don’t
stress on this enough, for people to take us seriously and professional we need to invest in our blog. The power of beautiful, usable, professional design
can't be overstated. When readers look at a blog the first thing they notice/judge
is how it "feels". An attractive blog theme, simple and easy to navigate
will make your audience coming back, because it just speaks quality and
experience. One day I was checking out a few blogs and I stumbled on this
particular blog, she had great content and pictures but I was lost, didn’t know
how to navigate, older post was the first to see before the newer post.
Everything was just everywhere, it was so difficult and I left the site
immediately because I was confused. Not just youngsters view our blog, older
people do as well and we need to have a simple and clean template so it can be
easy to navigate. If you want to take blogging far and/or to the next level,
invest in a good template. Advertisers and sponsors notice that and if your
blog is just confusing and disorganized that might be a red flag. Let’s make
sure we include social sharing buttons for Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and the
other major social networks, that way it’s easier for readers to spread the
word. It should also be easier to comment on post, the comment section should
be friendly and easy to use.
Blog domain, let’s imagine
you are introducing yourself and blog to a potential advertiser, does your blog
name sounds catchy and something they can remember, something that we can just simply
type and check out at any point in time? If we have a simple and easy blog name
our audience can simply check out our blog for new blog post or just to check a
random post to show to their friends or family and that’s how the news will
spread. People now know your blog name without referring back to your Instagram,
or Facebook page. That drives traffic to your blog
5.
PROMOTION
Last, but definitely not the
least. I know Facebook and Instagram now give the opportunity for us to create
paid promotions on their platform reaching thousands of people. If you
definitely want to reach more people out there invest in promotions on whatever
platform you feel comfortable with. To my knowledge it can cost $10-$15 dollars
to reach thousands of people, if your blog is worth it I’d say go for it, there’s
no loss there. I’m positive you'd drive more traffic to your blog. Take advantage
of social media.
Thanks for reading if you
have any other way to drive traffic to your blog, please share them in the
comment section, and let’s take note.
Talk to you in my next post, be you, be safe, be kind,
stay blessed and remain humble.

some great tips which i agree with but just so you know facebook and instagram has decreased the number of people who see our posts so that we will pay for sponsored posts, something ive been reluctant to do.

Yeah that's so true. That's why the last point on here is promotion. To reach out to ore people we have to pair for the promotions on their platform. Thanks for stopping by dear.
