Methods you can use to promote your blog

Despite the fact that people have been blogging for over 15 years now, promoting a blog is considered to be one of the most difficult forms of network marketing on the internet. The reason behind is very simple; blogs are visited due to the quality of the content available on them. If the quality of the blog is not good then people won’t visit it again and this will lead to a decline in traffic. So before we reveal the methods you can use to promote your blog, keep in mind that the blog will only receive regular hits if the content is good. So in a nutshell the main thing for promotions is the content.

Official Pages on Social Media websites
A free way to promote blogs is through the use of social media websites. You can create an official page on Facebook, Twitter, Linked In and Google+ and start sharing the post of your blog there. Also share these pages among your friends and family and hope they will follow it. High chances are that they will follow back. This way apart from the regular followers of your blog you will have a new genre of fans through social media. The social media accounts are easy to manage and also give a decent feedback about the content.

Ad placements on search engine
This method is one of those through which you are actually spending from your own pocket for promotions but it is totally worth it. AdWords by Google is one of the most powerful Ad Placement services available on the internet. If you are willing to spend some extra money for the promotions of your blog go for AdWords because the end results are very fruitful.

Giveaways on your blog
People love to win things over the internet. Conduct small giveaways on your blog on a regular basis. People will follow you more and will also spread the word. It is a very effective way to promote a blog.

Bumper Stickers
Make around 100-200 bumper stickers of your blog address and distribute it among your friends and family. Like they say that charity begins at home, likewise promotions begin at home. So make sure you distribute the stickers to everyone in the family. This will allow you long term promotions across the town.

These are some of those ways that should be used to promote the blog on a regular basis. They are simple and effective. Make sure you follow them on a regular basis.
