Anyone can start a blog nowadays, but only less than one percent of them will be able to grow it to the level they can make a living from it.
It is challenge, not to mention that the process can be slow and tedious.
Here are some tips to accelerate the growth of your blog.
1.
Keep standard high Don't settle for anything less.
Your blog needs to have great and unique content to lead the pack.
Quality is not optional.
If you are to grow your traffic continuously, you need to have strong content.
Just think it from the perspective of your audience.
If you were them, will you read or stick with a blog for a long time? Not by a million years unless the blog is offering something useful and you can relate to it, right? 2.
Blog regularly You also need to keep blogging to keep the readers coming back for more.
When they subscribe to your RSS feed, they expect you to post every so often.
If you've established a publishing schedule, they may even expect that at some specific time.
I have people who wrote back to me asking if there were something wrong with their emails or on my part because they didn't see a new blog post.
That happened because they anticipated what I was about to say.
3.
Learn new things every day You want to keep updated about industry's news and happenings.
This is the only way you can satisfy the first and second points above.
If you are to be seen as an expert in your niche, you should do your best to become the best.
4.
Use blog tools Tools are there to help you get things done.
Learn how to use it effectively.
Sometimes you can increase your productivity tremendously by adding just one tool to your tool set.
Your aim is to work fast and become more productive, so that you can focus more on creating content instead of learning how to do certain things.
5.
Promote your blog Promotion is one of the most integral parts to a successful blog.
You need to get the word out.
Superb content spreads around, but you can accelerate that even further if you go the extra miles and promote your blog.
People with average content can get readership if they work hard on promotion.
I also often see bloggers who have only a few followers although they have great content.
It is challenge, not to mention that the process can be slow and tedious.
