There are more then 77 ways you can actually drive traffic online and all you need to do is pick and master one or two methods will do to get your blog going.
That’s it for the top 10 mistakes in blogging made by most bloggers. If you have further comments do remember to post them below.
You are right. One of our main goals throughout our day should be driving traffic. If you have not given us any of those 77 ways for generating traffic, it would be great if we could have a new post to show us some ways. I know of the top few other marketers use but would be interested to know all 77 you are talking about.
Thanks again for another motivating post and help to get us focused. I do have my optin form on my blog but not many sign ups. I need to think of a way to change that.
Thank You.

I have not indexed my blogs on google yet. Thanks for the reminder. Training through my PlugInProfit site from Stone Evans has taught me how. Find TraCConley on Twitter.

The most important is still TRAFFIC because NO TRAFFIC = NO SALES = NO EARNING =)

I see more mistakes on your part!
1. “We spoken much” – Put have between we and spoken.
2. “rest of last 3″ – Put the between of and last.
3. “them contstantly with freq” – The right words are constantly and frequent.
4. “Get Your Blog Index On” – Put ed after index.
5. “I was real suprised” – Put ly after real.
6. “how to optimized” – Take out the d.
7. “Drive Traffic” – You didn’t add ‘fail to’ at the beginning.
These tips are not new blogger friendly. I think you should explain what leads are, how to index on Google and what traffic is!
I think not collecting leads and not optimizing your blog for the search engines are two mistakes a lot of bloggers do. In my oppinion these are the easiest things you can do for your blog. You only have to do it once and not with every post.
For example you only have to put the optin box once to your blog to collect leads all the time and you only have to submit your rss feed once to the top rss aggregators to get every post indexed in the search engines.

Examples for point no. 10 are needed. Since there are “more than 77″ ways to drive traffic, perhaps you can do a post that highlights the top 10 or 20 provided they are not the same old ones you see on every make money blog. Maybe there really are no more new ways to drive traffic.
Or maybe list the ones which are best in your opinion.
Cant agree more with the part about collecting leads. MANY fail to do so and they just let opportunities slip away..
Nice tips. I have finally started to collect leads from my blog, and starting to see the benefit already.
