How You Can Increase Blog Traffic Easily,

Most things really worth doing need more than one step to achieve. Blog commenting which might be tedious and take time, planning and sticking with it through a number of phases over extended time periods is definitely worth the effort.

Setting out to increase blog traffic isn’t any exception. Here’s the best way to do just that in five easy steps.

Step 1. Commenting On Blogs.

This is really crucial since it builds your reputation as a blogger and positions you as a expert. Blog commenting also gives you immediate traffic to your blog from the blog owner and also the blog readers. If you don’t really do that step, you will not be able to create backlinks to your blog which increases your Google Page Rank.

Step 2. Look For Relevant Blogs To Comment On.

This can be a very important step. It demands concentration along with your full attention. It might be best if you could do it in this way: search for blogs in your niche and bookmark them for commenting on them later. Here are 3 websites to start searching for blogs in your niche;

1. Google Blog Search
2. Technorati
3. Ice Rocket Blog Search

You could also set up Google Alerts for the categories you blog about.

Step 3. Look For Blog Communities.

The reason behind this is to have fun and connect with other bloggers. You can find blog communities at;

• MyBlogLog
• Blogcatalogue
• Network Blogs on Facebook

Step 4. Maximize Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

To explain and elaborate on that a little.

• Find another blog post on the same subject you just wrote about and link directly back to your new post. Make sure that you copy the exact link from your new post.

• Comment on 3 – 5 blog posts that are about what you have just written about.

• Make sure to use the keyword or keyword phrase that you used as a tag in your blog post and put it in the first sentence of the post that you are commenting on.

For example: Let’s say my keyword is “network marketing tool.” I could write in the commenting box that, “Blogging is a great network marketing tool.” Make sure that when you do this that your comment makes sense. Don’t keyword stuff your comment.

Step 5. Great Commenting Tips.

Furthermore, get a gravatar so that your picture shows up when you add your email address in your comments. A gravatar is a small picture that you see besides peoples comments. Go to http://en.gravatar.com/

When commenting write about the “buzz” and have a strong opinion good or bad. No one wants to read boring comments such as; ‘yeah me too or great comment, or thanks for the article. This is where your expertise stands out. Comment on what you know. People can always see through a fake. So be authentic!

By the end, if you have stuck with the above tips completely, you will have succeeded and now can settle-back and enjoy the benefits of your success. You could be a little bit pleased with yourself and self-satisfied! You achieved what you set out to try and do!
