4 Steps to Increase Your Blog Traffic

by Daniel Scocco

increase blog traffic One of the most common complaints that I hear from bloggers is the fact that no matter how hard they try, they can’t grow their blogs past 100 or so daily page vies. Those early days are indeed the hardest, because you need to put hard work in without the certainty of achieving results.

If you are in that same situation, here is a simple strategy that will certainly increase your blog traffic and make you break the 1,000 daily page views mark. In fact, the strategy could be used even if your are already over that number but have reached a traffic plateau lately.

Just make sure to execute the 4 steps as planned and to spend the two hours and a half every day (obviously if you have more time available you can expand the time spent on each of the four steps proportionally).

First Step: Killer Articles (1 hour per day)

Spend one hour brainstorming, researching and writing killer articles (also called linkbaits, pillar articles and so on).

Notice that your goal is to release one killer article every week. If that is not possible aim for one every 15 days. So the one hour that you will spend every day will be dedicated to the same piece. In other words, expect killers articles to take from 5 up to 10 hours of work.

If you are not familiar with the term, a killer article is nothing more than a long and structured article that has the goal of delivering a huge amount of value to potential visitors. If you have a web design blog, for example, you could write an article with “100 Free Resources for Designers”. Here are some ideas for killer articles:

create a giant list of resources,
write a detailed tutorial teaching people how to do something,
find a solution for a common problem in your niche and write about it, or
write a deep analysis on a topic where people have only talked superficially

When visitors come across your killer article, you want them to have the following reaction: “Holy crap! This is awesome. I better bookmark it. Heck, I better even mention this on my site and on my Twitter account, to let my readers and friends know about it.”

Second Step: Networking (30 minutes per day)

Networking is essential, especially when you are just getting started. The 30 minutes that you will dedicate to it every day could be split among:

commenting on other blogs in your niche,
linking to the posts of bloggers in your niche, and
interacting with the bloggers in your niche via email, IM or Twitter.

Remember that your goal is to build genuine relationships, so don’t approach people just because you think they can help to promote your blog. Approach them because you respect their work and because you think the two of you could grow together.

Third Step: Promotion (30 minutes per day)

The first activity here is the promotion of your killer articles. Whenever you publish one of them, you should push it in any way you can. Examples include:

letting the people in your network know about it (don’t beg for a link though),
letting bloggers and webmasters in relevant niches know about it,
getting some friends to submit the article to social bookmarking sites,
getting some friends to Twitter the article, and
posting about the article in online forums and/or newsgroups.

If there is time left, spend it with search engine optimization, social media marketing and activities to promote your blog as whole. Those can range from keyword research to promoting your blog on Facebook and guest blogging.

Fourth Step: Normal Posts (30 minutes per day)

Just like a man does not live by bread alone, a blog does not live by killer articles alone. Normal posts are the ones that you will publish routinely in your blog, between the killer articles. For example, you could publish a killer article every Monday and normal posts from Tuesday through Friday. Here are some ideas for normal posts:

a post linking to an article on another blog and containing your opinion about it
a post informing your readers about a news in your niche
a post asking a question to your readers and aiming to initiate a discussion
a post highlighting a new resource or trick that you discovered and that would be useful to your readers

While killers articles are essential to promote your blog and bring new readers aboard, normal posts are the ones that will create diversity in your content and keep your readers engaged.

Thanks Daniel, this post is a good one! i will follow this four steps!
Laura on July 13th, 2009 5:18 pm

Killer articles are great at gathering some traffic. I recently did a post on whether Coscto membership saves as much as everyone claims. It too some time to look at all the benefits, both popular and rarely used, and organize all our savings.

The only thing I disagree is the amount of time spent on killer posts. It takes me a bit longer; but I find it worthwhile time spent.

Great article; thanks for sharing.
Knoxville Website Design on July 13th, 2009 5:23 pm

Thanks Daniel,
This is a winning combo, short, sweet and effective.
Arun Basil Lal on July 13th, 2009 5:34 pm

I used to do one freebie release a month some time back. Freebies are crowd pullers and they get heavy re-tweets and stumbles.

Traffic went down a lot when I stopped that. There are limits to the traffic SEO and Keyword research can bring, unless you are the best at it.

Killer articles are comparatively easier to make and works well on the networks, esp. Twitter
TurboTax Online on July 13th, 2009 5:41 pm

You and Darren at ProBlogger have consistent posts that get page ranks in the 3-4 range which is really good for a post.
Daniel Scocco on July 13th, 2009 5:48 pm

@Laura, notice that the 1 hour per day I mention is to be spent on the same article. So total time is from 5 to 10 hours for a killer article.

You take longer than that?
Arun Basil Lal on July 13th, 2009 5:51 pm

Daniel and Laura,

How much time do you spend on a normal article?

For instance, this one is an article of descent length, how much time did you spend to write this one?
Sudeep on July 13th, 2009 5:53 pm

This is really a nice recipe to have gr8 for the blogs f or sure . Especially I like about the Killer artic le and the time spend on networking others and writing comments .
Just wanted to add freebies and such stuff do not give success all the times .. So according to me be careful while giving free stuff ..
Sudeep
Mike on July 13th, 2009 6:15 pm

Wondering if you wrote this post just for me. I’ve hit a glass ceiling with my traffic, and I’m having problems knocking through it.

I’ve fallen into the trap of publishing “normal” posts and haven’t done a killer one for awhile. Already have a good idea for at least one I’m going to start tonight.
Daniel Scocco on July 13th, 2009 6:21 pm

@Arun, for this article I believe I spent one hour.

For normal posts I spend around 30 minutes.
Zemalf on July 13th, 2009 6:30 pm

Hmm, I think I gotta start pumping more time into the primary articles. I’ve spend several hours on them, but I think I’ll kick it up a notch. Setting these tasks on daily todo-list and set/schedule time for’em will get’em done.

And actually it’s a great tip to work on the same article/post on several days, something which I’ve been doing a lot, even with the smaller posts – sometimes you get a fresh idea to the post when you sleep on it.
Smart Boy Designs on July 13th, 2009 6:44 pm

What I enjoyed about your thoughts here is that you point out that your blog needs some extra “killer” content to push it above the many blogs that are out there. Something to be recognized for is crucial. Great thoughts.
Sonia on July 13th, 2009 7:27 pm

I found this post very useful and inspiring for my new blog. Cutting tasks down in to manageable sections makes them a lot better to cope with. As always, an inspiring article to help keep going!
InternetHow on July 13th, 2009 7:38 pm

They are very good points. And they are only useful if they are executed. You need to be honset to yourself and set a time managment for these tasks.

Anyone can create a blog with good traffic if the above tips are followed. However, you need to be patient and determent to see the outcome.

Whatever the niche you are in, you need to take blogging seriously. I realised that a lot of people are looking for magic answer for traffic and the success of a blog. But, you won’t get more than and clearer than what is mentioned above. As long as you take action and stick to your tasks and schedules, you will see the outcome soon.
Marc Flores on July 13th, 2009 7:48 pm

This is me commenting on another blog to get more traffic to mine. That’s the point of blogging about blogging, right?
Nicholas Z. Cardot on July 13th, 2009 8:37 pm

Great advice! I’ll definitely be putting this into practice at my site!
Lou Ann Granger on July 13th, 2009 8:47 pm

Well-written, and specific advice. Thanks!
B. Durant on July 13th, 2009 9:19 pm

Killer articles: Can you link to two or three of your own that you put that kind of time into and got the reaction you were expecting traffic wise? Also an example or two of ones that you didn’t get the traffic/reaction you had expected would be nice to see.
Harson on July 13th, 2009 10:40 pm

Fantastic Daniel. my blog is now going into its fourth month. your article seems to raise me up and do it in a more structured way.

I might not be able to get that 1,000 page views per day, but the thing is that an attempt to put some striking articles.

thanks Daniel for the advice
Chester on July 14th, 2009 12:41 am

So it takes 2.5 hours to do this. This is really interesting! Thanks for sharing them.
Nail on July 14th, 2009 3:52 am

This is a nice summary of blogging activities. My blog is about 3 weeks old and I was already practicing some of the titles from your list. But some of them are new to me and I will put them into practice asap.
Bill on July 14th, 2009 4:20 am

Great article! However you haven’t mentioned which are the best places to publish these articles to get in tons of new traffic.
Spunky Jones SEO on July 14th, 2009 4:36 am

I have a new blog which I made my first post on March 1st, 2009. It has been doing very well so far overall, it has web traffic and pagerank.

I make one post per day, seven days a week so far. However, that may change so I can promote the SEO blog better than I have been doing.

Good advice in your post and I need to polish up on a couple of your suggestions.
Chris Mollo on July 14th, 2009 4:43 am

This is exactly what I was looking for. I recently started a blog and I am doing a lot to get traffic but the results are very slow. I’ll implement these ideas and I’ll think I’ll have some look. I’m feeling optimistic again, thanks!
Phaoloo on July 14th, 2009 5:02 am

Really simple but essential tips for novice bloggers. Thanks for these step by step guideline.
mark harrison on July 14th, 2009 5:59 am

Top info Daniel. I like articles that are broken down into bite sized chunks to explain a few points and I’m going to print this off, stick it on my desk and use it as a reference for daily use.
Ryan on July 14th, 2009 7:57 am

Great information. Really simple yet extremely effective advice. I shall be following this closely.
Daniel Scocco on July 14th, 2009 8:19 am

@B. Durant, check the “Popular Articles” section on the homepage. Most of those are what I call killer articles, and they all generated a very good response in terms of traffic.
Sathyavrathan PK on July 14th, 2009 8:41 am

This seems simple and great…. I will try following this… Thanks for providing this fantastic article…!
Liane YoungBlogger on July 14th, 2009 9:12 am

I tried a routine similar to this, but in my observation, 30 minutes of networking seems not enough Content writing is really something that takes time, and it must be prioritize. I just have concerns on the times allotted for the other areas.
Dave-S on July 14th, 2009 9:41 am

I am going to take this on board.

I normally spend about 20 mins doing posts. But i need to do a killer post aswell.
Carey on July 14th, 2009 9:45 am

If only writing an awesome article like this takes 1 hr for me! Great advice and practical too.

And by including the timespent you are giving me a definite, measurable goal here. This is really helpful and meaningful. Thanks Daniel!
GoBusiness101 on July 14th, 2009 10:00 am

Very well said. I like this. Killer articles can be in a few words but catchy. Few words, yet going straight to the details.

Happy blogging!
Tom Bradshaw on July 14th, 2009 10:24 am

Good tips as always, especially like how you suggest the amount of time we should spend on all this. You should do it because you enjoy it not just to gain traffic.
Kae Kohl on July 14th, 2009 10:34 am

Daniel, wonderful tips. Time constraints are one of the most common complaints we hear when we’re talking to potential clients about blogging and other forms of social media. Thanks for breaking it down into understandable and manageable chunks.
Verity on July 14th, 2009 11:16 am

Daniel, thank you so much with these useful tips. It would be of great help but I do need some more ideas about “killer articles.” Same with other new blogger, one of my constraint is how to drive traffic to my blog. Again, thanks….
unixfoo on July 14th, 2009 11:49 am

Great & useful tip. I’ll follow this and increase the traffic on my blog.

I guess this is really what Michael Dunlop did to earn more dollars online as a blogger. Isn’t it outrageous ? That at the age of 21 that’s he is.http://www.internetbusinesspath.com/podcasts/michael-dunlop-interview
Oscar - freestyle mind on July 14th, 2009 12:48 pm

Hey Daniel, this one is a killer article! I will implement your advices for my blog. Thanks
teratips on July 14th, 2009 3:04 pm

i found these tip helpful, thanks very much
Luz on July 14th, 2009 5:10 pm

I’m going to take this into practice. I actually started last week a “song of the week” post, but now I’m thinking of planning a killer article once a week.

I think the killer article is what I’ve been missing, Thanks.
p4ladin on July 14th, 2009 11:03 pm

i takes 2 hours per day… thanks for sharing this artikel..^^
George Serradinho on July 15th, 2009 3:24 am

Some great tips. I have been trying to increase my daily visits for sometime now and you have given me the 4 steps that I need to follow.

I so agree with the normal posts idea. You need to throw your readers off balance a bit and find the balance so to speak. I will have to try this method of yours and see if it works for me.
Vikas on July 15th, 2009 3:29 am

Man, This article has come to me in the most needed time.
I kinda have stuck with my blog… only publishing normal articles… and having 100 page views for 2nd week now… no increase at all..

Today i’m gonna spend some time to write a nice great killer article. rather than pushing normal article.

Thanks daniel… awesome info.
DemoGeek on July 15th, 2009 4:05 am

This is one article that I read thrice at work (normally won’t do it). It just struck me to the core and right on target.

I’m pretty much following most of the ingredients that you’ve mentioned but don’t know why, DemoGeek.com is still under the bar (less than a year old blog, may be?). As with one of your advice, I’m not going to give up but would certainly appreciate if someone can let me know what’s wrong and if they can give clear/concise direction of how to take DemoGeek.com to the next level. Would even pay $$$.
Affodable Gifts on July 15th, 2009 5:42 am

I was Sent this article from a friend, I think its informative and really boils down to commitment.

Ill definitely follow your advice.

Thanks
Harsh Agrawal Shoutmeloud on July 15th, 2009 7:32 am

Very useful tip. The only thing which people miss here is commenting and promoting their well written stuff on social bookmarking site.
Readers should take an example of your post which is well promoted on Twitter. If not 100 even 10-20 nice tweet will help to get good traffic.
Ashish Kalmegh on July 15th, 2009 8:00 am

This actually boosted my confidence
Nice article , I am learning new things from you buddy thanks

V.C on July 16th, 2009 2:11 am

I normally spend 10 hours to research and writing blog.
Sometimes it makes me tired but bring traffic a lot.
In my opinion, writing regularly is a good way to get more traffic.
Rob on July 16th, 2009 1:31 pm

Very nice. I would say double the times for everything if not more. It’s all about the “Plan”.
Seth W on July 16th, 2009 2:48 pm

Writing is the key to getting traffic… But only if it is quality work. I have found that pillar/killer articles are the best way to get consistent traffic and build new members in your community.

Another tip for your promotion section/networking is guest posting. I gp on DBT a while back and am still getting traffic and created some dedicated readers from the opportunity here.
Ching Ya on July 16th, 2009 2:49 pm

With everything said and done, the winning factor is hard work, patience and persistence. These are the basic guidelines for bloggers to adhere and kick off their traffic-influx campaign. By having proper analytics or monitoring apps, one could benefit from knowing which strategy works best within each steps. I wonder does anybody here, or Daniel yourself, have any suggestions or experience in monitoring traffic source via analytic applications?

@wchingya
Social/Blogging Tracker
Daniel Scocco on July 16th, 2009 3:00 pm

@Ching, my advice is to not get obsessed with the analytics. I recommend checking it weekly or even monthly, but making sure that you evaluate what is going on (keywords, referrals, etc).
Ching Ya on July 16th, 2009 4:08 pm

Thank you, Daniel. That’s a good advice. I’ll pay more attention on those. Appreciate your prompt reply. ^^

Great post! In addition, you may want to recirculate/Tweet your old “good” posts..especially if they were written before you had any significant traffic….and focus on killer post titles…a great site for this is http://justcreativedesign.com/...../…No, this is not my site…just a great reference post.

Maria on July 19th, 2009 11:36 am

Thank you for this article! Writing has always been a passion and past time of mine. I love creative writing in particular, but I never paid attention until recently to what it takes to bring writing to a new level on-line and via blogging (for anything other than the fun of it that is!) I appreciate posts like this that give us a daily plan :0)

Slavi on July 20th, 2009 11:04 am

Hi,

I am just wondering if the article is tooooo long will most of the visitors just briefly read it ?

Slavi
Daniel Scocco on July 20th, 2009 2:01 pm

@Slavi, some will, others will read it in full. Regardless, they will all perceive the article as something valuable, which will increase their chances of sharing the article with other people.
Slavi on July 20th, 2009 11:17 pm

You maybe right. I’ll try that.
By a killer article do you mean an article comprised by more than 5k words ?
AussieSheila on July 21st, 2009 12:53 am

Thanks very much for the article. This is exactly the way to go.
Just my opinion – personally, I don’t have the patience to scan through lists containing more than 20 services/items. But that’s just me.
Taufiq Hasan on July 21st, 2009 8:37 am

Hmm..i will try your tips.. thank you.. im still trying now.
Daniel Scocco on July 21st, 2009 9:28 am

@Slavi, not necessary. My definition of “killer article” is written in the post.

Hi Daniel

I just wanted to say that I took your advice and wrote a “killer post” (you can see it here: http://www.daccreative.co.uk/g.....ng-today/). My subscribers have doubled and hits to my site have increased ten-fold (albeit from quite a small base).

Thank you so much for this great advice. And yes, I’m planning my next killer post.

Ryan Biddulph on August 7th, 2009 12:16 am

Excellent advice Darren. I usually do a killer article every week or so. I’ve learned that it’s more about quality than quantity; I used to think that I had to post every day but when decided to post only when inspired my readership went up.

Thanks for sharing your insight.
Bradley J. Moore on August 8th, 2009 6:41 pm

Thanks, this is the most relevant, straight-forward content I have yet seen on this seemingly overwhelming subject. This is exactly the kind of practical advice I was looking for. THANKS!

WarriorCritic on September 23rd, 2009 7:55 am

I like the structure that your article provides. As with any business, time management is the key. In most cases, the amount of time spent on a product (article) will only improve the end result.

Rian on October 30th, 2009 11:18 pm

Some people are asking how long it takes to write a killer article. bear in mind that it does not have to be about an hour or two of writing. if you are superman who can write very high quality article in 30 minutes, then that’s it. Do not pressure yourself in writing a quality article in 1 hour.
Jay on November 3rd, 2009 6:30 am

Hey, I like the idea of the “killer article.” Already, I’ve managed to do this on my blog without actually be conscious of it.

I like this post and I think every new blogger should see this! Time management is a huge issue because it is so easy to get sidetracked and lose focus. The way you have laid it out and easily understandable is great!

I agree with Jason, you have to have very good time management skills. If you don’t you can spend plenty of hours and not get much accomplished.

It is a constant struggle if you don’t develop some type of schedule and have the self discipline to stick with it.

Hi You have mentioned in your post “Killer Articles”, This is wonderful idea and i have to keep things in mind while Blogging.

I’m not sure that article marketing cuts it anymore. I think that there are more time friendly ways to market your web business than writing articles and also, unless you have a killer author bio that will compel people to click on your links then your article could be futile, whether that is 20 words or 2000 words.

This is the first of many “increase blog traffic” articles that I’ve read that doesn’t leave me with my heart pumping, my brow sweating and the desire to run away from all future blogging. Thank you!

Thank you Daniel. I love your articles so much, I have been reading them for a long time. Worst part of me is I don’t interact. Good lesson though. Thanks, again.

Thank you. This is great tip. The most attractive thing on the tip is to have a fix duration of time when blogging. In this case, I think perseverance is important. It’s also quite difficult to pick up a habit of posting to blog routinely.
