After you set it up, you basically just wait for Google, and come back to your account the next day and look for those related topics that Google alerts send you. From my experience of my niche, most of them are blog updates, and basically you just need to go out and comment on their blogs and that’s it.

Email marketing is a great way to generate free traffic for life provided you do it properly. By properly I mean you should have an optin form (a form to collect readers’ name and email) so that when you update your blog, you have give your subscribers an instant update.

The purpose of registering a feedburner account is simply feedburner offers email alternatives to your RSS feeds. So when you update your blog, it will generate an update to your subscribers and hence they can click back to your blog again.

(forum posting on your niche forum to get more targeted visitors)

Traffic, traffic, traffic. It is the thing that many bloggers want and many bloggers have been wondering. They are waiting, waiting and waiting, traffic simply do not come. So how can you as blogger get more traffic though. Today, as I have been a blogger for more two years, I would like to share with you some of my findings and experience that I’ve learned from various courses online such as Atomic Blogging by Alvin Phang and Blog Mastermind by Yaro Starak.

Tactic #1: You need targeted audiences.

Many bloggers start a blog and write whatever they want to tell the world about their thoughts, opinions and what’s more they just write the things that have happened in their lives, Well there’s nothing wrong but how many people will interest reading in your topics? For example if you are just talking about yourself, unless you are a celebrity like Brad Pitt, NBA star Kobe Bryant or Lebron James, then I will say no one will interest your own personal stuffs at all. So what you have to do? Write a topic that many people will interest in, and when they look for the topics on the web then they will simply click into your blog and have a read.

Tactic #2: Constant update of your blog

Constant fresh update is a key of returning visitor (hence traffic). People love to read fresh contents (just like newspaper). If your readers find interesting fresh article every time they read your blog, they will simply bookmark it and come back again. As a rule of thumb, you should plan to have 3 articles per week to start with your new blog.

Tactic #3: Learn how to do SEO yourself

SEO stands for search engine optimization and it is a way to boost your blog ranking for some keywords when users key in the search engine.

As there are many articles about SEO in the Internet but I will only pick up a few and follow since many claims that they know SEO but have no proven track records that they really know what they are talking about, so I suggest you to only learn from the true professionals such as

1. Allen Wall’s SEO book or
2. Kalena Jordan’s SEO course

Tough there is a SEO section in Alvin’s Phang Atomic blogging or Yaro Starak’s Blog Mastermind, I think you should learn from the expert to clear the myths out rather follow those guys.
