Blog visibility – 5 tips to increase it

Blogging has become of utmost importance for increasing your company visibility on the internet. But if your idea of building a blog was writing a post and waiting for traffic to come, then you need to think again. With more than 1.4 millions blog posts created each day, you will need to work a bit harder for the traffic to come to your blog. .

So what are some of the actions you can take when building a blog to generate traffic?

1. The blog needs to be as a hub for your web marketing activities. Your blog together with your social media presence and your website needs to have a brand that identifies your business uniqueness

2. You have to create great and unique content. Readers will keep coming back only if your content is good and worth it. If you have great content other bloggers may like it and link it to their blog, which will increase the back links to your blog. This is something that search engines like. The more back links the higher the search engines will rank your blog.

3. When creating a post you need to research the keywords to be used. Keywords are the words that people search for in Google or other search engines. So you need to make sure that the keywords you are using are being searched for. This means that people are looking for information on those keywords. Moreover it is desirable that the competition for those keywords is not high. The more competition the harder will be to feature your blog in the first page of search engines. These keywords need to be used in the post title and permalink, in the first or second paragraph of your post, in the meta-tags and in the tags,

4. Then you need to create more back links to your blog to increase the search engines rank. One of the easiest ways of doing this is by commenting on other blogs. Your blog has a section where readers can comment. You need to do the same with other blogs. So find 10 blogs that are relevant to your product or that are being frequented by your potential target market, and every morning set aside 20 minutes to comment on their post. The comment needs to be relevant and add value. In this manner you will be noticed. Do not just say: “Great article”. Then add your name, email address and URL of your blog. Make sure that your comments are posted early, just beneath the actual post. In general people read only the top comments.

5. Lastly you can syndicate the posts that you write, by submitting the posts into social networks that your target market will frequent. We know about facebook and twitter, but you also need to look for your niche social networks. There are techniques that allow you to submit your blog post directly to these sites, so you do not need to do them manually. This creates more links and exposure to your blog.

In conclusion, blogging is one of the most affordable ways to market your services, but you need to generate the traffic. As mentioned before there are millions of posts created every day. You need to find a way of standing out in your niche market and making your blog work for your business.
