I wanted to share with my fellow bloggers some great tips to
help build your empire.
First, I want to start off by saying: The key
to becoming successful in business is being relevant.
But, in order to be relevant you need to
remain relevant.
This is why in today’s
internet-based society, connections and networking are important to successful
bloggers and brands.
In addition to the
relationships we build, are how we build them.
Well, today I’m going to share with you some simple 101 tips to becoming
more relevant in the internet world, because as we know, traffic is life for a
website or blog.
Tip 1: Social
Sharing: Joining social networking group
pages, can really pay off. The social sharing method is one
of the most popular and easiest approach to helping you to generate more
traffic to your website or social pages. Considering most who are members of these groups, have the same goal in common. Which
is to build their online presence, and to gain followers, so interacting can be a big benefit. Bottom line, if you are able to
increase the number of likes, views and shares of your brand, the more visitors
you will have.
Here are a few great ones to consider. Simply click and if it looks like you, ask to be invited!
Tip 2: Creating Blog Links From Comments: If you are a blogger you know the importance
of incoming links to your page from other sites. With that being said, did you know, you can
also use the comment area on other websites/bloggers pages to make a back link
to your page? But, are you doing it right?
Are you leaving a clickable link or are you just leaving your blog or website url?
Unfortunately, I’ve seen many people just leave their blog name rather than a
clickable link to their page. Therefore, I’m going to show you how to get this to link to your page in just a few easy steps!
How NOT To Do This:

In the above example, someone can’t link to your site by clicking
on the URL. Instead, they’d have to copy and paste the URL to get
to your page. Furthermore, you are not link building.

In layman terms....Insert THE URL TO YOUR WEBSITE/BLOG here.
Replace YOUR TITLE here.
Example: <a
href="http://
barbiesbeautybitsblogger.blogspot.com/">
barbiesbeautybitsblogger</a>
So, not only is the link clickable, it can now be picked up
by search engines. You can also do the above for a post if you'd like. Where instead of inserting the URL to your page, you'd insert the URL to the post. YEAH!
Tip 3: Optimize Images For Better Search Engine
Rankings: You may not realize, but what
you name an image when you save it, can really help you with searches. Hence, helping you to generate traffic from
image searches on google. For example,
if you have an image about makeup dupes.
You should not save the images with a generic file name, like blog post 85. Although, you may know that blog post 85 is
about makeup dupes, this will do nothing for you, to help with your search
engine ranking. Instead, you should use
a descriptive file name with the keyword you want that image to rank for. Also, make sure to include your company name
in the image to help linking it to you.
I would also do the same with the image properties of a image you place on your site(s).
Example: Mac Makeup Dupes by Barbie’s Beauty Bits.
So there you have it! Three easy steps on how to increase traffic to your website or blog. Also, if you thought these tips were helpful, please make sure to stay tune for more!
