How to Advertise Your Blog For Free and Get More Visitors!

Today I will explain how to advertise your blog for free and increase your traffic. There are many ways to achieve this, unfortunately most people get too much information and feel frustrated. This puts them in a position where they take no action.

You need to find a skill to drive traffic that you are comfortable with, and learn it inside and out. Truthfully, you will need more than that one skill, but once you know one skill you can link in the others quite well.

If you truly want a profitable business, in my view, there is no easier way than to advertise your website for free. That means even if you turn over a very small amount, it is still profit. Nonetheless as your profit increases, you can learn how to outsource the time consuming tasks.

For now we will be focusing on free ways to advertise your website, outsourcing is a big topic on its own. So, how do you advertise your blog for free?

Leveraging Highly Trafficked sources

I plan to keep this as simple as possible. If you are asking yourself - How Do I Get More Traffic to My Web Site? All you must do is find out where the traffic is, then put yourself in front of it. It is as simple as that. Luckily, at the moment there’s a wealth of places to market your website for free.

Forums: A great way to advertise your website free is to find high traffic forums. Frequent the forum and actually read the material. Start to provide a number of valuable responses. The mistake that most people make is by spamming. You need to understand if you leave silly comments you will get no interest.

On the other hand, if you provide a well drafted response to a thread, the other followers will respect you and like to see what you are up to, are you with me? Then they will visit your blog and follow your posts.

Social Media: Similar to forum marketing is social media. Provide several quality pieces of information in the social media site. This could be an article or a link to a useful post you have on your blog. Do it on a regular basis and watch your traffic go through the roof! You will truly learn how to advertise your blog for free.

  • Great stuff Wayne!

    I can definitely attest to the power of forum and social media traffic -- I get quite a bit from Facebook, Better Networker, and from leaving comments on sites like JasonBetter(dot)com.

    And it doesn't take long to do this stuff, either -- just a few minutes a day.

    Talk with you later,
    Derek

  • Hey Derek, Good to see you putting yourself in front of the traffic the right way.

  • Wayne,
    You are right on with this post. Forums are an awesome place to get some free and very targeted traffic. The great part is that with some planning and thought you can create a content strategy that lends itself to the biggest concerns of people on the forums and grab a ton of traffic.

    Nice,
    Eric

  • That is a goop point there Eric, I could see a massive amount of traffic from that.

  • Hey Wayne,

    Forum marketing is one of those area's a lot of marketers seem to overlook. I have got tons of leads just by answering questions. Your readers would do well to follow your advice.

    Great Post

  • Thanks Chris, the great thing it is easy for anyone to do as well.

    Cheers for passing by.

  • Hey Wayne,

    You are right! Follow where the traffic is. If people follow what you just outline for them. They will generate free traffic.

    Social Media traffic is so valuable. Everyone and everything you need is there. You just need to know where to go. Everyone loves the word 'Free'. Follow these two suggestions and you will have fun. :)

    Have a great day...
    Josh

  • Cheers Josh, yeah keep it simple and follow the traffic.
