Making your blog popular

1. When you write your blog, make sure you put in your blog what people are actually interested in reading. Be entertaining, funny or things that people might want to read about. You want to catch the interest of the reader and want them to come back and refer their friends to come to your blog too. Put pictures or a video of something interesting. Make sure that you change the information on your blog regularly as people won't keep returning to see the same thing over and over again. Ask others to post on your site as well; friends and even people you don't know. Maybe even other bloggers.

2. Step 2

   Submit your blog to DIRECTORIES...
   If you don't people wont know that you have set up a blog, just by setting it up doesn't mean that people will come to you. You need to get into the directories so people know you have a blog

3. Step 3
   
   
   

   A list of directories:
   Daypop
   dmoz
   Moreover
   Syndic8
   Blogdex
   Bloglines
   Blogstreet
   Feedster
   blogwise
   Blogcritics.org
   TOPIX.NET
   Genecast
   
   
   
   If you have Adsense and placed an x on place into the directory you should already be in google's directory.
   
   Also, take a look at other directories by typing "blog directories" as a key word. It should give you more than I have mentioned. The above is just to name a small few. When you go onto the above site type in as a search... blog directory...

4. Step 4

   When your on on the rampage send out emails to everyone- place your blog ask them to take a look, if they like what they see ask them to pass it on. Write stuff on other peoples blogs, post on there site and request that they post on yours. Try to get others that are networking the same way to help you if you help them.

5. Step 5

   Look around at other blogs and see if anything in particular bring people to other sites... words? photos? videos? funny pictures? funny content? If you see a blog with a lot of traffic- write on it.

6. Step 6

   Write articles and make sure your blog address is in the article. The more times people see your link the better your chances are of people coming to your site. If they have seen it 5 times they are going to wonder what they are missing.
