The main task of any author of the blog is to untwist the blog. It is hardly possible to call successful the blog which is read by nobody except the author. Promotion of the blog — not less, and can be both more creative and difficult task, than write interesting posts. There are several simple steps which will allow to begin this fascinating process.
- First of all, to untwist the blog, it is necessary to write to it. It is necessary to write interestingly (that is important) and it is regular (that, perhaps, it is even more important). Besides, it is necessary to react to comments when they begin to appear. It is pledge of love of readers and if readers love you, then they will read the blog to recommend it to the friends, to place references to your messages in the blogs, and all this is perfect voluntarily and without additional efforts of you.
- Place the blog on several popular sites. It is possible to look at the list of popular sites here: http://blogs.yandex.ru/services/. Configure all blogs so that each post from the main blog was copied on each site. Do not forget to insert the link to the main post — it will provide existence of links to your blog that is important for search engines at assessment of its rating, so, it will help your texts to appear with the top lines of output of search engines.
- Do not neglect SEO. Try keys to each article. Place them in heading and the title tag. Select them in the text, use in signatures and tags of alt to illustrations. All this will give inflow of visitors from searchers, and much steadier and not such whimsical as audience of readers.
- Comment on someone else's blogs. It will give at the same time and inflow of the visitors who became interested in your comments and additional references on your blog from other blogs. At least, the author of the commented article precisely to you will come, and it is possible, will even tell about you a couple of words in the blog, or will leave the comment under some of your posts. If it is the person, famous in a blogosphere, then such comment in itself can attract many readers.
Rather popularly in a blogosphere to charge placement of comments on its own behalf to freelancers for money. Such way really can give many references for short term, however, as a rule, the quality of such comments leaves to wish a lot of best, and they only harm image of the author of the blog.
