101 FREE Ways To Promote Your Blog

Hello blogoolians, I am collating a huge list of blog promotion resources to help you promote your blogs across the World Wide Web! The list is in no particular order and will continue to grow when I discover new methods. There are two lists, one for free blog promotion methods and one for paid blog promotion methods.

Please note that this list is for FREE options only.

Facebook.

Every man and his dog knows what Facebook is so I’m not going to explain this one but say just one thing: Get a Facebook page for your blog! Get your friends to click like and each one that does a link will be posted so all their friends can see… and so on.

Sams verdict: A Facebook page is essential to any blog.

Twitter.

Just about every man and his dog knows what Twitter is so I’m not going to explain this one either but say just one thing: Get a Twitter account for your blog! Link it to your blog so that a message gets send out to your Twitter followers every time you make a post on your blog.

Sams verdict: A Twitter account is essential to any blog.

Twiends.

Twiends is a great way to find Twitter followers who are interested in the same things you are. For example, you can add “blogging” to your interests and then it will list all those people who also have “blogging” as an interest. It also provides the ability to gain Facebook fans or turn your credits into website views.

Sams verdict: Please Follow the Rules and Best Practices provided by Twitter. It has the ability to drastically boost your twitter followers so if your new to Twitter it might be a good way to get you started. Be careful to use it in moderation because Twitter may ban your account if you go crazy following and unfollowing hundreds of people everyday. Twitter stats that “every user can follow 2000 people total. Once you’ve followed 2000 users, there are limits to the number of additional users you can follow: this limit is different for every user and is based on your ratio of followers to following.” Obviously celebrities are once again exception to the rules with Tiger Woods getting 130,000 or so followers in his first few days!

PinoyExchange.

With stats like Pinoyexchange has 402,938 users, 51,457,768 posts, and 6759 online users (when I last looked). And to top that registration is free! Who is going to argue with that promoting?

Sams verdict: Gave me 75 visits (322 page views) during the first 5 weeks.

BlinkList.

Blinklist is like iTunes for web pages. You can upload your favourites (bookmarks in your browser) and share any of those favourites with others who are also on blinklist. You can add friends and view their bookmarks.

Sams verdict: Gave my blog 8 visits (32 page views) during the first 5 weeks.

Blogoola.

Blogoola is a relatively new website which allows bloggers to list thier blogs and represent your country in your niche area. This is appealing to those passionate about their country or blog topic. With over 500 signups from 29 different countries in its first few weeks it certainly has the potential to reach a worldwide audience.

Sams verdict: Free signup is worth it just to get free links to your blog and expose yourself to over 50 countries currently listed.

Technorati.

Technorati is a free blog directory that has been around for a while (around 1,192,108 blogs listed).

Sams verdict: Took a long time to get my blog listed, almost 3 weeks! Not sure if it is bringing much traffic yet. I will keep this space updated.

Digg.

Great site to share your blog posts and share (Digg) other blog posts. Definitely one to check out especially if you have good networking skills.

Sams verdict: Not sure if it is bringing much traffic yet. I will keep this space updated.

Delicious.

Delicious is a leading social bookmarking site where you can upload your favourites and share them with others. Signup is free but you need a yahoo email address.

Sams verdict: Looks like a good way to promote your blog posts. To be honest I haven’t really used it that much. I will keep this space updated.

How To Create A Loyal Readership With Your Blog

Sunday, November 29th, 2009 at 8:09 am

Leave your comment

One of the main differences between a blog and a static website is the way people are able to interact with your content. With a static site it’s just people reading words on a page. When you have a blog they can explore and even comment back! You want to get that sort of interactive spirit going so you can create a loyal readership with your blog.

That doesn’t mean it’s easy! There are literally millions of blogs out there all vying for the attention of your audience. It can be even harder to grab people’s attention when you’re just getting started. The bad news is that it’s going to take some work and dedication to build up a loyal readership. The good news is that it’s very possible, and even fun, to put these things into place. Follow these rules and you’ll have the kind of repeat visitors and fans that really make blogging worth your while.

Rule #1: Write Great Content

Let’s face it; if your content stinks there is no way people are going to come back and read again! They’ll just click away, never to return. If you write great content, however, you’re sure to get some fans. Not everyone considers themselves to be a good writer. That’s OK! No one expects you to have perfect grammar and spelling. It’s far more important that you write interesting content that stands out from the crowd. Give your real thoughts and opinions on things that matter to the audience.

When you write great content, not only will you have people who want to visit your blog all the time. They will also link to you! You know that more linking means higher rankings in Google. That’s definitely a great thing that will expand your readership base to levels you couldn’t even imagine when you got started.

Rule #2: Leave the Comments Open

It’s amazing — but there are bloggers out there who close their comments! While it can be a lot of work to try and get rid of those spam comments, you’re also missing out on a big part of what being a blogger is all about. You need to let the audience write back and speak their mind too. People don’t just want a website they can read anymore, they want one they can add their “2 cents” to. So, leave your comments open and listen to them. It doesn’t matter if people always agree with you or not (they won’t!), you’ll get a much larger and interested following.

Rule #3: Guest Blog

The chances are good that there are some blogs out there that are very well-liked by the people in your niche. These blogs probably get a lot of traffic and a lot of respect. It’s time to get your name and website out there in front of this audience! All you need to do is write to the owner and say that you’d like to write some guest posts. They will probably be more than happy to take a break from their own posting and to give you a link back to your blog. This will not only give you link juice for the search engines, you’ll also win some of their loyal readers who are interested in what you have to say.

Learning how to create a loyal readership with your blog is incredibly important if you want your blog to thrive. It’s all about the people, and making sure they are aware of your blog and love your content.
