With millions of blog existing online and new ones arriving daily, only a fool would expect to upload a blog today and begin making millions tomorrow. Blogging doesn't work that way and there are many things you must do to grow a popular blog, and many more things to avoid! They include:
* Update your blog on a regular basis, daily if you can. That way you'll keep visitors interested and keen to visit you often. For more details www.your-own-
* Stay focused and aim to please a niche audience all of the time rather than trying to please everyone some of the time.
* Create interesting posts with unusual titles that make visitors want to click on your titles to read more.
* Offer free gifts, free updates, give free advice, write free articles! All help generate trust and confidence in visitors to your blog and will turn them into regular visitors and many of them into regular buyers too.
DO NOT
* Complain or unfairly criticize other people or their products. Be impartial always and gain a reputation for truth and reliability and be seen as someone whose products and recommendations your blog visitors will trust.
* Breach trademark or copyright laws by stealing images and huge chunks of other people's articles and using them on your blog. Not only might you face legal action but you could also be banned from search engine rankings or even have your blogged closed down.
* Ignore your visitors, especially those who ask questions or leave comments at your blog. People like to feel wanted, and welcome, and if they don't they'll stop accessing your blog. For more details www.atoz-about-
• Sit back and wait for your blog to draw traffic and begin making money. That's because it isn't the blog that makes money, it's the traffic you drive to the blog that makes money. So write articles about your blog and add them to online article directories, visit other people's blogs and offer incentives for people to visit your own blog, place free classified ads. on and off the Internet, and do whatever else you can do - legally - that drives traffic your way!
