146 Comments / Blogging Tutorials, Guest Posts / /

I’m a productivity guy and I’m also a big fan of hitting multiple birds with one stone. So when it comes to reading, learning a new topic and finding ways to get more traffic, I was talking about …. guest posting. And here is how this works: you order a book from Amazon (or download a Kindle version), read it, extract the book’s core concepts and write a guest post about it. Make sure that you have a compelling bio box at the end, to help get more traffic back to your blog or to landing page.

Blogging with Jokes is a Perfect Recipe for Success

84 Comments / Blogging Tutorials, Guest Posts / /

logging with Jokes, huh. You might be thinking that it is something new or something idiotic but let me correct you it is not as idiotic as you think it is. Whenever you start writing a post, what do you do at the very beginning ? The first thing you will do is research about the topic you are going to post about. After getting all the required material, you start writing a post and complete it. But do you include one thing in your post that each and every person likes? Here I am talking about adding some jokes. By jokes, I don’t mean you add Santa-Banta jokes; I mean that adding a little humor in your post will make it a worthy read and your readers will enjoy reading it. But the biggest question here is what’s the need of adding humor in the blog post ? Why is it necessary to add a comic sarcasm to your post?

Being a blogger, I know how much blog traffic means to each and every blogger. Blog traffic plays an important role for our blogs. Through this, we get to know what are we actually doing and how to create content for improving blog traffic.When you are starting to blog, you should go for the best blogging platform that is WordPress. Why I am recommending WordPress to you is because of its many brilliant qualities. WordPress is an open source blogging tool and content management system that is easy to use for building websites. It is not like HTML Coding and Dreamweaver in which one has to practice a lot for building a blog. Also, WordPress blogs fetch higher rankings on search engines than Tumblr, Google Blogger and other platforms which leads to more traffic for your content.

Blogging newbies and vets! Attention all you blogging grunts out there, I have a message for you. You run a blog for one reason. Yes, you want to share value and help people. But you really want to tell people to do something. So they take the call to action and both parties prosper. Most bloggers fear being “salesy”, or too promotional. I remember before I joined a tribe, I heard from a particular blogger that I was too promotional. This was simply his lack of faith, in his opportunity, being projected on me. I laughed. I knew better. So I ignored him, and continued promoting myself, and my opportunity, barking calls to action like a blogging general, and growing my team, and readership.
