I started my blog at the end of July 2009 and at the start i was determined
to get as much traffic to my blog as possible.

I had planned to use as many methods as possible to get a flood of people visit
my blog but as time went on i lost momentum and as a result i haven’t been getting
many visitors to my blog to date.

So it’s time i re-plan and get down to work.

So here is how i will drive more traffic to my blog…

Blog Commenting- This has worked for me in the past i just have to spend more time doing it, if i spend more time commenting on other blogs related to my niche and add value in my commenting i will see a big improvement.

Twitter- I have  a small stream of traffic coming from twitter and i have only 424 followers to date, so i need to concentrate more on following targeted people in my niche and that’s really the way twitter works you follow someone and they follow you back as long as your following targeted people related to your niche and your creating value you will get traffic using twitter.
Alex Jeffreys has a great video series on how to drive traffic using twitter, check it out here.

Forums- I haven’t been active in any forums and it’s something i have to start doing because not only can you drive traffic to your blog with forums it’s a great place to get to know people related to your niche and find future JV partners.
I have Alex Jeffreys students forum and other Internet marketing forums like Warrior Forum and Digital Point Forum so im going to start getting involved, answer and even ask as many questions as possible and add as much value as i can putting my link to my blog and my twitter ID in my signature this will help a great deal in driving traffic to my blog.

Social Bookmarking-This is something i haven’t worked on yet but i will submit some of my better blog posts to sites like Delicious and Stumbleupon and hope that one of them takes off, i could get hundreds or even thousands of visitors as it goes viral.

Video- This is something that im learning at the moment, i have started a course called Video Marketing Classroom by Josh Bartlett.
In Josh’s course he tells all about video marketing, how to get comfortable in front of the camera, how to edit and upload your videos and much much more and here’s the best part it’s free.

SEO- A lot of the above will see my ranking in the search engines improve, if i keep providing good quality content on my blog it will attract more traffic therefore stepping up my blog to a higher ranking.

JV Giveaways- I have started to get ideas to write my first ebook and when i have finished writing it i will be submitting it to as many JV Giveaways as possible.
When people read my ebook they can find their way to my blog via the link within the book.

My Mailing List- As my list grows more and more i will contact my list with all the fresh content i put on my blog. This will attract a lot more traffic as my list gets bigger.

Well that’s my plan and if i hit all these points and be consistent with them i will see much more unique visitors to my blog.

I hope this has helped you, if you have any other methods i would love to hear them just leave a comment below.
