How To Get Instant Traffic to Your Blog

Lack of traffic is one of the major problem for any new blogger or website owner sometimes makes them feel desperate and even makes them left blogging in the initial stages. Even if your blog is new you can have a decent amount of traffic just by following some activities that can generate you good amount of visitors. Just as a side note I want any new blogger to know that every 3 months Google updates page rank for any website on the internet so you should be dropping your link everywhere to get a hand full of back links because more back links (quality of links matters i’ll write some other day about this) more page rank.

Here are some quick methods where you can generate instant traffic from referring sites.

Social Bookmarking Websites

These days Social bookmark websites are owning the web everyone out there is stumbling, digging, mixing or whatever you name it and if you are webmaster and already saw the traffic effects from these websites then you must be aware of fact how much beneficial these websites can be in sense of diverting visitors to your website and give exposure to your content. All you have to do is to register on many famous social bookmark websites and submit your pages there but this is not enough make a lot of friends (probably the one’s already have blogs) where you will have the opportunity of social networking.

Link & Thumb Exchanges

This is also another effective way of making your blog famous and gets permanent readers. By link exchanging or thumb exchanging you link to other’s blog and they link yours two common ways of doing link exchange are in content link change or in blog roll. While link or thumb exchanging you should consider that the other blog should be the same genre of your blog like you can’t thumb exchange with food blog if you write about technology there is less chance of getting benefit. Want thumb or link exchange with TechCats? go to Contact Me Page and give me a message.

Guest Posting

Make blogger friends contact them from their website contact form and ask that you want to do a guest post on their blog when they accept your proposal put your website url and your feed url in the beginning or at the end of the post this way you can have a quality back link plus you’ll get some RSS readers too and the best of all some visitors.

Commenting on blogs

The key to success is ‘leave trackbacks where ever you go’ this is possible when you comment on other’s blog. Leaving comments on every blog you visit will help spreading your links over the web there is chance you’ll get visitors, the main benefit of doing this is the author of blogs you visit will also comment on your blog which is the only way to know what people think about your content. A tip from my side, make a folder in your bookmarks and then bookmark your favourite blogs in it and then comment on these blogs regularly.

Post your content to forums

When you write something sizzling or too new then you should write about it in forums with a back link of your blog post. But you have to be sure the post is worth posting in forums because you can’t post your blog links daily on forums doing this everyday will end up with a banned account because the moderators will consider it as spam.

Start a contest, give prizes

This is really an effective and quick way of gaining popularity and traffic, the game is simple here choose a prize which you think really is useful and your readers need, it can be a domain, a rapid share account or a hosting package (but you shouldn’t spend too much a reasonable prize will do the job) make rules ask them, to take part in the contest a back link is required, a comment on this post and subscribe to out RSS or E-mail feeds and believe me they’ll do it. To give it real hype you can ask some of your popular bloggers friends to write about your contest in their blog.
