Make your blog site user friendly
If you want people to keep on visiting your site, you need to make your web page visually appealing. Ensure that it would be very easy for people to navigate your blog site and open your internal links. Some people would want to post comment or subscribe to your blog, so you need to ascertain that such features are easy to find and hassle-free.
Optimize the use of the available RSS feature of your blog
In connection with visitor's subscription mentioned above, most, if not all, blog sites provide a Real Simple Syndication (RSS) feature. Such will enable visitors to not only subscribe to your blog, but also incorporate your blogs and links to their own site or respective blogs. It is imperative that you add a little extra to the RSS feeds that your subscribers get from you.
Keep on blogging
If you want to be noticed, you should never get tired of posting blogs, images, or other things that will keep your visitors and subscribers interested. If you want to reach a lot of people, you need to ensure that popular search engines put your blog in their top list. To do this, you need to provide current and fresh content at least once a week.
Content does not only mean text, you can also upload interesting pictures and images, video blogs, and even podcasts. Be creative and you will see that the number of visitors of your blog will consistently rise even if you don't lift a finger to promote it.
Link with other sites
Much like websites, links and affiliations are also a good way to get your blog noticed. So if you want web crawlers to take notice of your web page, create several links. Bear in mind that the more links you have the bigger the chance of getting high ranking on top search engines.
Participate in forums and post comments on other people's sites and blogs
Another way to get noticed is by participating actively in forums and by posting comments on other people's blogs and sites. This will help you not only get links, but also be recognized by the forum participants and visitors of other people's blogs. However, make sure that your posts and comments are relevant, positive and informative. Using defamatory or foul language will probably not give you the result that you are hoping for.
Write some informative articles as bonus
If you want the links to your site or blogs to increase, you should write a couple of articles regularly. The articles must be informative, well researched, interesting and written in a conversational tone. You don't have to make very long articles. Short but meaty articles are preferred by many. In just a few days after posting your first article, you can already probably see a dramatic change in the number of viewers.
