Check your blog for recent updates, user comments and reply to it. Checking for comments & replying to them can give you returning and Loyal Readers to your blog.

So, you have a quality blog. Now, you have to inform the world that you have started a new blog and get visitors to read it. Lets see how to drive traffic to your blog in the following section.
Traffic:
Yes. You need traffic in your blog to make money from it. But, is that traffic alone is enough to make good bucks from your blog. The answer is, NO. You can get traffic from anywhere, say a PTC site. But, is that worth a lot? Definitely NO. A good quality traffic is what you need to make money from your post. But, how to drive QUALITY traffic to your blog. Following are the things that should be kept in mind, when driving traffic is the subject.
- Search Engines
- Building Community
- Building Links
Search Engines:
Search engines drive a large amount of traffic on the web. If you are very serious about driving traffic, then you should have a good ranking in search engines. MyiStop.com does a lot to keep it search engine friendly and keeps informing the popular search engines about the updates in MyiStop.com.
What I have do in my part for getting good Search Engine rank?
Yes, you have to do some thing from your side to get more targeted by search engines. Those things are post title and META tags.
Titles: This is by far the most important element on your post. When somebody does a search on a search engine, the search phrase is first matched to the titles of pages. It's crucial that you have the important key phrase in your title, if you want to be found in the search engines, or ranked highly. Your title will also be displayed as the result in the search engine so it also has to appeal to the viewer, but the first priority is to make your title appeal to the search engine.
META Keywords: Some search engines (like Google) ignore your keywords, but although not as important as your title, it is again crucial to get your keywords right. You must select keywords the people use to conduct searches. Use a took like Google AdWords - Keyword Tool to create a list of the right keywords. Don't guess the right keywords and phrases, you might use different phrases than the majority of people conducting searches. Use the tools available to get the right keyowrds and phrases. Your keywords must also be present in your page. If you have certain keywords but nothing in your page content to back it up then you will never be found in the search engines. It is hard to optimize a page to do well for many different keywords. Try to find good keywords for every page in your site. Never use the same long list of keywords for every page.
META Description: Your keywords must be found in your description Keep your description under 250 characters. Few search engines will display more than 250 characters.
Building a Community:
One of the best ways to build sustainable traffic to your site is to create a community. Join in various communities related to your primary focus and make a announcement post in the communities whenever you make a blog post in MyiStop.com and place a link to your post with title of your post as anchor text. For example, if you've posted about "New Mobile Model from Nokia", your anchor text should be "New Nokia Mobile" or something related to the post or you can use the exact title of your blog post. Don't use Click Here for new Nokia Model phones and anchor the text "Click here".
Building Links:
Links are what make the web work. Having a link to your site on another site that has related subject matter benefits you in several ways. You will get increased traffic from people clicking on the link and in addition search engines like Google will find the links and increase your PageRank Score.
Finding Sites To Link To You: By doing a search on any search engine using the type of keywords that are related to your site, you will find a whole list of potential sites that could link to your site. It helps if you have a site that contains useful content. It will be hard to convince another site to link to you if your site has a low value or interest to them. Another way to find links is to find out who is linking to your competition. You can do this by using the search engines. For example entering link:www.mycompetition.com on Google will list all the sites that Google has found that links to your competition. You could then approach these sites to ask for a link.
Free For All (FFA) Pages and Link Farms: Although it seems tempting to list your site on an FFA or link farm - don't do it. FFA page are lists of links. When you first submit a site it will be at the top and gradually move down the list until it drops off the bottom. FFA's will bring you no traffic and will fill your email box with thousands of Junk emails. Even worse, search engines like Google may find your link on an FFA page and ban you from their search engine. Avoid these at all costs.
Guest Books and Newsgroups: It is possible to gain some links from posting on guest books and also by putting your URL in the signature of postings on newsgroups. Although this can be a valid method of gaining visibility and links, be very careful not spam. It is rude and will not be appreciated if your only reason to post is to create a link. This will damage your reputation and backfire if done irresponsibly. Newsgroups often have rules in place that are designed to keep the board useful. Follow the rules, and contribute to the newsgroups by entering discussions and helping others with their problems.
