Going from 0 daily visitors to 100,000 daily visitors takes a lot of time and effort. The thought of getting more blog traffic has been believed to be a slow process in which the most persistent bloggers are the most successful ones. However, there are some ways to get more blog traffic immediately. These are 4 ways to do that:
- Include share buttons at the bottom of your blog. This is a simple step to implement that will allow more people to share your content with their social networks. Some blogs get a few extra visitors with this method while other blogs get a few thousand extra visitors.
- Include links to your older blog posts in your new ones. Once you get visitors, you want them to stick around. If your visitors read multiple blog posts on your blog, that reduces your blog’s bounce rate. A blog with a low bounce rate has a better SEO rank. Decreasing bounce rate is a simple way to get a better PageRank on Google.
- Write a guest post on a popular blog. Putting your content in front of a larger audience will allow more people to know about you. When people look at your bio, they will see your social networks and a link to your blog. Once you get them to visit your blog, your bounce-rate-improved blog will keep those visitors on your blog for a longer period of time. Writing a guest post and including a link to your blog in the bio will also count towards a backlink.
- Use HARO. I have mentioned HARO (Help A Reporter Out) many times because it is an easy way to get free PR. Big media outlets related to your niche are using HARO to find people like you. If the journalist likes your submission, they will feature you on a popular blog, TV show, or magazine. Being featured on the blog gives you another backlink while all three give you free PR.
Those are 4 ways to see an immediate change in your blog traffic. While some tactics take weeks or months to see a big change from, these tactics will allow you to see an immediate increase in traffic. I can’t promise you will go from 0 daily visitors to 100 daily visitors overnight, but I can promise you a noticeable increase in traffic.
