COMMENTS CAN ALSO LEAD TO GOOD TRAFFIC

                        


You have a wonderful blog that you have started recently. But you are worried about the number of visits or traffic to your blog and almost quit blogging. Well, if you work hard and explore other successful bloggers you will know a lot on how to run your blog successfully with a good number of visitors.

I'm going to share how you can increase your traffic by commenting on others' blogs.

How many of you comment on other blogger's posts in your niche?

Do you know commenting on other blogs in your niche is one of the most important things for a blogger?

Following are the reasons why every blogger should comment on the blogs of his/her niche.

• The immediate benefit you will get is traffic to your blog. You might be following so many other things like link exchange, submitting your blog to blog directories etc to drive traffic to your site. But none of them will get you the 'quality' traffic. Commenting on the blogs of your niche will help you get the quality traffic.
• What makes you comment on other's blog? The obvious answer is their posts. So, you would obviously go through their posts before posting a comment. By going through different posts on different blogs, there is a great chance of you getting some good ideas for you to write a great post on your blog. Reading that many posts will also make you know how to write better and attracting posts.
• Post valid and good comments regularly. By dooing so, there are great chances of people getting interested to know you. Make friends with them. This helps your blog getting linked by them.
• If you keep commenting, you will also get more comments to your blog. Whatever you put out comes back to you. So, keep commenting.
• Search for new blogs in your niche once in a while and comment on them too. This helps you expose yourself to new people in your niche.
• Add value to the conversation with your comment.

But wait! This is not everything. There are a few other things to consider before you comment.

• Your comments should not be like "great post", "nice blog", "Thanks for the great post" etc. You'll be considered a comment spammer if you do so.
• Your comments should be related to the topic.
• Tell him what you like and why you like.
• Don't always put a link to your blog in your comment signature. Add the link back to your blog only if you feel it is relevant to the post.
• Don't add more comments on the same post. It can hurt you more than it helps.

Blogging is not just about what you want to say. What good does it make you, if you don't have visitors to read your blog. So, reach out to people, expose yourself to new friends, new ideas.
Have fun!

Quick and Easy Ways to attract More Traffic to Your Site from YouTube




YouTube is one of the most common and biggest social networking websites online today. Millions of web surfers browse through the YouTube site monthly in search of videos that in their chosen niches. There are traffic generating potentials from YouTube but you may not be able to leverage this fact if you don't know the right steps to take and how to perform certain simple traffic-oriented tasks using your YouTube videos. If you had been reading how lots of other website owners had been getting loads of traffic from YouTube, it is time for you to join the successful train and start experiencing very meaningful traffic to your website from YouTube. The right step to take are outlined in this brief discuss.

What You Must Know In Order To Drive More Traffic to Your Site Via YouTube

It isn't rocket science to drive traffic from YouTube irrespective of the type of business you are doing. Saying this is important because some site owners may unnecessarily be intimated by the huge results of those that had been there before them. The skill you have or whatever qualification you may have wouldn't count if you fail to read and digest the following three important YouTube traffic tips.

1 - The first thing is to submit your videos to YouTube. Don't be deterred if you don't know how to create and upload any video at the moment because it doesn't take more a couple of minutes. Essentially you will need free 'Camstudio' which is readily available on the internet to create any prolific video to be shown on YouTube. If you are among those internet marketers that still find it difficult to join the social marketing 'war-fare'; you have to wake up today if you really want your online business to survive.

While using YouTube as a traffic-driving medium, you have to ensure you give your videos adequate titles. This is important because there are lots of marketers that make the mistake of titling their YouTube videos for the search engines. This may not yield the desired popularity for such video because the search engines are becoming smarter than they were few months back. The best option is to give your videos proper titles that will appeal to humans and be sure of its popularity once it starts getting shared and voluntarily linked to on the internet.

The basics concept of any video you upload online should be to either entertain or educate so you have to carefully make it worth your viewers' while. If you have some educational or informative tips to give, nothing prevents you from sitting in front of your computer and recording 2 or 3 minutes clean video of yourself talking. This is quite acceptable online and can go viral as long as you have useful or informative content in the video.

2 - You shouldn’t forget to include the link to your website or blog in any video you create and upload to the YouTube. This is very important especially if your sole aim of uploading such video is to drive traffic to your online or offline business. The time you spent on the video creation may have been wasted if you fail to provide link back to your site so that those that view your videos can click-in to your blog or site to see more of your offerings. It is common to believe that many viewers wouldn’t type in the URL in the YouTube videos but the truth is that many actually do.

You Can Create a Community of YouTube Video Viewers

3 - This is similar to asking potential clients to subscribe to your newsletter but in this case, they would be subscribing to your YouTube channel so that they will know when you post new videos. This can effectively bring repeated traffic to your site especially if you have very insightful videos on display. You can simply ask people to subscribe to your YouyTube video channel by mentioning it at the beginning and the end of your videos but be sure to make your videos are informative as possible.


10 Steps to Blogging Success


Anyone can start a blog, but not everyone knows what to do to make their blog successful. The goal of a good blog is to keep its readers happy and coming back to read more. To accomplish this there are certain things that have to be maintained.
Here is my definition of blogging success: A successful blog is one that is fun and enjoyable for its visitors. It shares entertaining and useful information that encourages its readers to share the information with others. The most successful of them all gets the readers to sign up for their newsletters, promotions, videos and products.  Question is how do you make this happen.
Here Are 10 Easy Steps to Blogging Success:
1.    Awesome Content: Awesome content is the ruler of all blogs. When you are able to supply your readers with unique and high quality content they become your number one fan. The most important thing about content is how relevant it is to what’s going on. So along with good content make sure the writing is something that is beneficial to the readers.
2.   Keep it Simple: Too much is as bad as not enough. It’s not wise to try and impress your readers with over the top language and grammar. If the reader can’t understand what it is you are trying to say then they won’t revisit you blog. Another element to keeping it simple is “just say what you have to say.” In other words get to the point, beating around the bush for the sake of word count will not attract readers.
3.   Be Interactive: Be available for your readers. Find an easy way for them to contact you should they need to, This can be done through a contact form , just remember to have it feed to an email that you check often. A timely response is very important.
4.    About: Who you are and what you are writing about is two question you have to answer. The most simple way to answer these questions is to have an about page. This page needs to be used to provide clear information about yourself and your blog. It allows your blog to take on a more personal feel and the people to get to know who they are dealing
5.   Appearance: The color of your site also makes a difference. It needs to be attractive yet calm enough to not run the readers away. This is best done with light colors or deeper colors like red, black, green and etc.
6.    Navigation: Your site should be easy to navigate. All your menu buttons should not only link to important pages but they must work. I am sure you can relate to the fact that it can be very frustrating to click on a link or button that doesn’t work.
7.  Advice: As the expert of your blog the readers are expecting you to recommend useful information and other sites. Just remember to only promote information you have either tried are no will be useful. A bad recommendation can counteract all your hard work and destroy your blogging success.  Another thing you can offer is tips on what things you have done that worked for you. It doesn’t have to be a product it can be how-to-advice.
8.    Give a Little: Another way to attract readers to your blog in offering them some kind of free product or promo. Some of examples of things you could offer is e-books, free advertising space, or a free subscription if you are offering a membership.  These are only few options; the main idea is “what’s in it for me.” To attract the attention of most people these days they have to see how the time spent doing something is going to benefit them.
9.    Use Social media: Make sure your blogs carry social media links so that people can easily share you and your information with other people. There are programs that allow you to do this all at once.
10. Advertising: Do allow your blog to be bogged down with a lot of advisements. Now I do recognize the whole purpose of a blog is to get some financial gain so you need to have some ads. Just remember to do this in a way that won’t turn readers off
There are other things that can be done to boost your blogging success. If you are unsure if you are on the right track, then I suggest you do the research and find out what other successful bloggers are doing. Download the “The Ultimate Blog Profit Model” for great information on how you can do better..  After doing the research decide what you want to write about and go from there. Remember that a successful blog is not built over night it takes a little time to build the trust of your readers.
Tip 11: Not Really a Tip but More a Suggestion
The worst thing you can do is neglect your blog. If you do not have the time to invest into the content and keeping regular post on your blog either outsource the content or wait till you have the time.
The Best Tip of All:
Think of what you would want to read about if you were a reader. Each time you write or offer something think of the reader and how they will find benefit from it. If the writing or offer doesn’t sound appealing to you it won’t be appealing to them.
All of the tips above are the foundation to a successful blog. As you become the expert blogger you will find that there are several other things that have made your blog a success.

Tips for Avoiding Your AdSense Account Getting Banned by Google

I have seen quite a lot of AdSense publishers posted in different forums stating that their AdSense accounts were banned by Google due to fraudulent clicks. Most of these people claim that they are innocent and have never clicked on their on AdSense ads. So they have no idea why click fraud can occur on their AdSense accounts. The truth is click fraud can happen in several ways and not necessarily caused by the AdSense publisher himself/herself who accidentally clicked on his/her own AdSense.

Below are some of the tips to protect your AdSense account:

1) Do not use autosurf programs to promote your websites that contain AdSense. Autosurf programs can substantially increase your website traffic or hits, AdSense page view and ecpm but people who surf your site only to earn advertising credit or other type of incentives. So the traffic generated from autosurf programs aren't counted as real and thus against AdSense policies.

2) If possible, do not involve in any traffic exchange networks and programs. If you have join one or more programs or networks that can make you a steady AdSense commission, you should start worry about your AdSense account as this could mean that members of the program(s) were clicking each other AdSense ads all the while whether intentionally or unintentionally. As soon as Google detected a group of people were clicking each other AdSense, many of the members AdSense account in the program will be suspended. Also traffic exchange can be another mean to artificially generate tons of unreal website traffic or hits and boost up AdSense page view & ecpm and it is strictly prohibited by Google .

3) Do not join AdSense exchange networks. They are similar to traffic exchange programs except members are participate just for clicking each other AdSense. This should be a guaranteed way to be banned by Google.

4) Read all the Google AdSense policies at to see whether you have against any policies and make the necessary modification.

Four Essentials to Succeed as a Home-Based Entrepreneur

Anyone can try to make money at home but not everyone can do it successfully. Here are four essential things you must keep in mind to have what it takes to be a successful home-based entrepreneur:

1) Self-Confidence

Have faith in yourself and believe that you can accomplish whatever you want. Start with thinking positively and be optimistic about what you are doing and the challenges that you face. If you yourself do not believe in what you are doing, no one will trust in your online business. The key to self-confidence is first knowing the ins and outs of your field. Be sure to research and understand what you are getting into before you start. Your knowledge will be the foundation of your self-confidence.

2) Passion

Be passionate with your work. What you do doesn't exactly matter. What matters is that you appreciate it and like it enough to motivate you and keep you going. Your passion will not only allow you to be the best you can be. It will also attract others to take notice and patronize your online business.

3) Discipline
Working at home does not mean you can just relax and take it easy. It does, however, has its perks. There's no harm in sparing lots of time for recreation. You just have to be sure that you manage your time well and finish whatever it is you have to do. With discipline, you can run a home-based business successfully without compromising your work-life balance.

4) Persistence

All home-based businesses go through some sort of failure, whether minor or serious. Keep in mind that the failures that you will face are unimportant. What's important is how you deal with them, learn from them, and rise from them. Each time you fail, you learn more. So charge everything to experience and avoid the same mistakes until you make your dreams a reality.
