Starting a blog is easy this day, as a beginner may be you like to used free domain. I assume you don’t have trouble at all to sign up your new account on free blogging service. The next step is creating contents, because the main activities of blogging is create contents.
I’m sure you need others to visit and read your blog especially if you are a productive writer. You need someone to give feedback or asking you about your article or start a discussion on your comment box. I can say that you need visitors or traffic to your brand new blog.
I saw few blogs with great contents but they didn’t go to the surface. This is about strategies for a blog. If you are really a beginner on blogging, you don’t have to be afraid that no one will take a look your blog. The right promotion and marketing your blog, sure people will come to visit your blog. If you are a productive writer, so you have to promote your works, tell the world about your works.
There’s a few easy ways to promote your blog and start getting traffic to your brand new blog.
- Join Blogger Community. Yes, its a must for new blogger. Why blogger community? Because you can find other blogger like you, from the expert until beginner like you. Create profile and don’t forget to put your avatar on your profile. The goal is to get connect with other blogger.
- Start Leaving Comments. This is what I did when I started my blogging journey, and I’m still do leaving comments until today. After you find other blogger on your new community, try to visit as many as blog you can for one day, and left a nice comment but do not spamming. Nice and useful comment will attract the blog owner to visit your blog.
- Social Network. Using your network to promote your new blog, off line and online social network. Try to put your blog url on your business card, tell your family and friends that you build a new blog. Using Facebook and Twitter to promote your blog. Don’t forget to put your url on your profile.
I’m sure your blog starting get more visitors with these activities. Leaving Comment is my favorite promotion tool to get more traffic. Additional tips, try to leave comment on the same niche blog and high PR blog.

Hi Latief,
You have some good sound advice here. You can have a great blog but no one will see it if you don’t do any networking. Social media and blog community go hand in hand. Bloggers are happy when you leave comments but they are really excited when you promote their posts on social media.
Keep up the good work!

Yes Ileane, for beginners getting traffic from communities and social network is the easiest way, first because the blog is not index by search engine and put our blog to the community will help our blog index by search engines

It’s important to get the word out that you exist unless you don’t want people to read what you have to say. As with everything in life, it’s all about give and take. Good advice on commenting [not spamming] and building relationships.

Nice post and great tips Latief. I especially like #2: Start Leaving Comments. To take it one step further, and to build on Hesham’s comment, I recommend reading and engaging other commenters as well as the blog author. Once they’ve left a couple quality comments, click through to other commenter’s links that got their attention.

I believe that is harder to promote your blog and make yourself heard than writing every day for your blog. Maybe is just me, but I find that part harder.

great post. As a new blogger, Ive spent what limited time I have trying to write good original content for my blog. I havent had any time to do any promoting. I am wondering how do you divide your time between content and promoting your blog?
I run a business during the day and I try and write posts for my blog when I come home at midnight. Im usually up until 2 or 3 in the morning and way too tired to do anything else
