Blog Tips to Drive Traffic

Good morning!

I have been asked quite a bit about how to increase traffic to your blog or website, so lets take a look at some things that works:

-submit website to URL to Google, Yahoo, Bing, than wait about a week and do it again!

-find out what the RSS feed is to your website and submit that to sites such as feedburner.com, newsgator.com, and pingomatic.com

-create a sitemap for for your website and make sure to submit that to Yahoo (yahoo.com) , this will allow Yahoo to properly index your secondary pages

-place your website URL in your email signature

-join forums/online communities of related topics

-use social media (facebook, delicious, twitter) and share your content

-update content frequently, daily if possible!
