Thanks for the information. I was tweeting my blog postings, but was not doing anything with the digg, mixx type sites. Went back and submitted a bunch of old blog posts to those sites. Hopefully it helps out

I especially like your fifth suggestion… It's definitely beneficial to talk about and promote your own blog, but it's that much more believable that the blog deserves the praise if it's coming from a third party like an article site.

I don't think you can overestimate the power of “networking”, on- and offline, about your blog.

There is no such thing as a duplicate content penalty… Feel free to research it yourself just google the phrase “duplicate content is a myth” and you’ll find proof.

Basically, duplicate content only happens when you submit the same thing to the same website. When you submit the same thing to multiple websites it’s called syndication. There are no penalties either… Google just won’t index more then one copy on one site.

They will however index AND RANK more then one copy on multiple sites. I have proven this for myself with over 200 front page Google rankings. You should prove it to yourself as well.

Great tips, but a little question about point 5 :

When you add your article to articles site, do you rewrite it ? Because if no there are risks of duplicate content penalties, isn’it ?

All the best,
Dushan

Hi Justin

Great tips, some of them I am doing but you sure gave me a lot to think about. There is plenty more I could still do to increase traffic to my blog. Thank you.

Thanks for the tips Justin,
I just put up my first blog and have been working on ways to get traffic to it. I think I will no longer have to think about it, I’ll just follow your advice, and do it.

Thanks again,
Greg

Awesome article Justin.

Most of us do some if not all of these tasks, the only problem (and am guilty as hell) is the lack of consistency.

It takes a great article like this to remind us of what we should be doing and where we are loosing out, thanks for sharing – keep em coming

Hey Justin

I usually tweet my post, then email my list about them and the cool thing is my list usually tweets my post using tweet meme

I also like posting comments on other blogs, it’s cool to learn new things on blogs like yours that always provide quality information.

P.S. Spinning articles is for spammers and duplicate content is a myth (google it)

Ping.FM and Onlywire.com are cool but I’m more about quality then quantity. Delicious, Digg, Reddit, & Stumble are worth probably the other 300 bookmarking sites combined.

But what about the extra backlinks???

Ehh… They are backlinks but not the most valuable. Kinda like collecting pennies to get rich. Sure it’ll work eventually but you’ll get there a lot faster with quarters and dollars.

Best thing anyone can do for really great links, is provide the most kick ass content that they can provide. Because that’s when other websites start linking to your stuff.

There’s another rockin’ resource to use to get more visitors and that’s Vinefire.com. Forget the fact that they claim you make money to post your links….I managed to get over 100 visitors to my blog lastnight alone!! And while that’s not huge, it beats the 10 or 20 I get from Twitter every day.

Great stuff Justin!

Hey do you have any thoughts on Ping.fm and Onlywire? Do you use them? Do you like one more than the other?

Thanks Justin!
