Six Techniques to attract readers

A blog without a reader is useless. Just imagine, how long you have spent your time from the first time you set up a blog until you published blog posts. When you check your blog stats, you have only 50 readers per week or even worse than that.

How to fix your blog stat?

For serious bloggers, their blog stats and analysis very important. How to analyse a blog? You can register your blog at Google Analytic. Huge number of readers are very useful for ads advertisers. This fact is simple, more readers, more chances their product will be sold. Hence, more money they can get.

To fix your blog stats, you must attract more readers to visit your blog.  Here we will introduce six techniques how to encourage people to read your blog post.

Before people reading your writing, they must read your blog post title first. If they find your blog post title suite with their interest, definitely they will read trough your blog post.

2) Produce interesting blog post

Despite  interesting title, a successful blog post must go with interesting body.  You must do a little research on what caught people intention today.  For instance, you can check Youtube website to browse through people interest in the most popular category. Then, you will get some idea to write a good entry.  

 

3) Interact with your readers

You can have one way communication with your readers. How? Throw some questions in your blog post. Make sure that the question is relevant to the topic that your blog about. People can answer your question by dropping their comments. Now it becomes two-way communication. Make sure you reply to all the comments. If you are using Blogger platform, I suggest, you should use Intensedebate or Disquss for better performance in commenting.

 

4) Subscribe to your feed.

This is the very common way to have loyal readers. Whenever you’re publishing new blog post, they will notice it and may read your blog post immediately. Hence, at the end of your blog post, you can suggest to your reader to subscribe to your feed in order to receive more updates. If you want to track your subscriber, register your feed at Google Feedburner.

 

5) Visit people blogs

If you expect more readers to come to visit your blog, you must do the same to others. However, there is hidden technique. Of course, you must leave high quality comments to the blog posts which you have visited. Please avoid leaving comments such as  “nice blog post” and “I like it”. That’s meaningless, perhaps it is spam keywords. Make sure you leave a well construct comment to catch people attention.

 

6) Invite people to join a contest

This technique has been used by bloggers who already generated more money from their blog. You can do it too. You need to think what is the contest that may catch people attention, then you must provide prizes. Lastly, you must announce it to your readers. The prizes depend on your budget. It could be anything, free domain & hosting or some money. Make sure that you can get something from the contest. Please don’t give people free things without getting benefits from it.
