8 SEO Tricks to Get More Traffic to Your Blog
Alvin Phang  
del.icio.us it! | reddit it! | stumble it!

So, you’ve started a blog; however, more than likely you want to work on getting more traffic to come to your blog. Increased visibility can help you drive more traffic to your blog, making it more profitable to you. Not sure where to begin? Well, here are a few great SEO tricks that will help you get the traffic you want coming to your blog.

SEO Trick #1 - Incorporate Keywords in Titles

First of all, if you want to increase the traffic to your blog, make sure that you incorporate keywords in the titles of all your blogs. Remember, people search by keywords, and using keywords in blog titles can help make it easier for people to find your blog.

SEO Trick #2 - Allow People to Subscribe

Allowing people to subscribe to your blog is a great idea as well. This is called syndicating your blog. Make sure you do your best to make signing up very easy for the visitors to your blog so they’ll come back again and again.

SEO Trick #3 - Use Keywords in Blog Categories 

When you set up your blog categories, you’ll help to increase your blog traffic if you use keywords in those blog categories. When you create categories that have good keywords, it will make a url for each post that is SEO friendly.

SEO Trick #4 - Comment on the Blogs of Others

Another way to bring more traffic in to your blog is to comment on the blogs of others. However, these posts should make senses and add value. Make sure that you use your real name or the name of your blog and avoid using keywords in the name field.

SEO Trick #5 - Use the Right Keywords

The right keywords on your blog can make it hot and help to get even more traffic to the site. Take some time to do some keyword research so you incorporate the best keywords. This will make it easier for people to find you via search engines, since you’ll be using highly visible keywords.

SEO Trick #6 - Make Use of Blog Directories

There are many blog directories out there today, such as GoGuides, DMOZ, and JoeAnt, to name a few. Make sure that you make use of these directories. Usually they have special categories for blogs that will allow you to have your blog listed in a specific related category. This can help you bring more traffic to your site.

SEO Trick #7 - Track Backs Can Help

If you happen to talk about a quote from another blog and the blog is relevant to the subject you are talking about, you may want to use a track back. This helps to build the popularity of your links and you may get some readers from that site to come visit yours. Basically a track back will show a list of blogs that refer to a certain blog post.

SEO Trick #8 - Offer RSS Feeds that Deliver to Emails

Last of all, consider using RSS feeds that deliver your blog posts to emails. Many people prefer reading blogs by email instead of actually having to visit the blog each day. So, this is a great way to increase traffic and make sure that you keep your readers as well.

Hi Alvin,
Nr.7: in case my trackback never reached you, please explain how to do it, tq.
And for all real men out here, you most likely need to know why men fail miserably in SEO :twisted:

In your blog posting in wordpress there is an option to add a trackback.. just inside the URL in there will do :)

Or you moderate trackbacks, or I am doing something wrong, as i still don’t see my trackback here?
