How To Get High Traffic For New Blogger
Sunday, November 13, 2016
Cara mudah tingkatkan pengunjung blog
Before I start, my blog traffic is not to be compared with others. I am happy with my traffic todays if compared to first time I started blogging. In my early days, I would be happy with just 100-200 viewers. But as today, I achieved 100,000+ pageviews, means I got an average of +-500 visitors per day .I target to get 3000 pageviews per day. Insyaallah! *note: I disable my own pageview count
As at November, 13 2016
As I become inactive for last few months, a drop in traffic is as expected. Without delay, here are my few tips and tricks that I use to get a higher traffic. These methods are helpful for my fellow new bloggers.
#1. Blogwalking I put this as first point because this is the most important thing to do as a new blogger. You start fresh and nobody know you just yet. So you have to publicize your blog. Make people know of your existance. Put your blog link in other blogs. Leave your blog URL in their cbox or you can exchange link with them.How many blog must I visit? Its up to you. The more the merrier! Put a target - 50 blogs per day or 100 blogs per day.
#2. Regular update
You don't have to write 10 entries per day. One entry per day is good enough. (I am still struggling to post one entry/day) If you cannot write entry every day, you can try to update your blog regularly. One or two entry per week, maybe?
#3. Good contents
Contents is a king!! For me, this is the most difficult things to do. You have to create contents that your readers can relate to or topics that readers wanted to know. You must consider your readers' feeling and respect their time. They come to your blog looking for something informative or something to brighten their day but we served them with our poor contents. This would be disrespectful of our readers' precious time. But fret not, you are free to write anything that you wanted to in your blog. People have preferences. Some of my readers may find my K-Wave topic is not good where others who shared same interest find this topic helpful. So don't be too afraid to write!
#4. Register your blog with Google, Yahoo and Bing search engine
This method may help your blog to be index in their search engine. So people might come across your blog!
#5. SEO friendly
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is always a headache to a new bloggers. I am by far an expert in SEO. But I do read few posts on how to understand SEO. If you want a higher traffic, you can never abandon this. You have to understand SEO a bit. Write contents with SEO friendly. You can try to type in your search engine about topic you wanted to write, and choose one with the highest keyword search. You can learn about deep linking or wheelinking to improve your SEO. Example of deep linking is put your oldest post link in your new entry.

#6. Drop your comment
This is another powerful method that can increase your blog visitors. Instead of just blogwalking, why not reading one or two articles in their blog? Drop some comment on their entry. Don't just simply write "nice sharing" but write something to show our sincerity. 7 out of 10 blogs that I left with a comment will definitely visited mine! And yes they will probably leave comment in my blog too!
#7.Responsive and attractive template
This tips also play a big part for a return visitor. You will not want a forever loading page, so does your visitors. So take a look at your blog. Do you have any irrelavant widgets that might make your blog heavy / forever loading ? If yes, consider to remove it. Attractive template doesn't mean you have to purchase your blog template. There are dozens of beautiful and responsive templete for free. But if you have extra money in your pocket, why not?
#8. Ping your blog
Not to forget, this one help me a lot in gaining higher visitors. I ping my blog at babab.net. You can see I put babab.net at my Neighbours section.
#9. Insert at least one Image
People are more attracted to picture than text. So put at least one nice picture in your entry. This probably will increase chances of your entry being click!

I'm struggle to do blogwalking, regular updates, and good contents. I only able to visit and read all the blog I follow, leave comment, and also update my blog at least twice a week. Itu pun kadang-kadang failed. Hehe.
