When it comes to marketing your blog, there is more than one way to skin a tiger. And just in case you’re wondering, no I don’t play with tigers. They play too rough.
Nevertheless, blog marketing is something that every blogger should give some consideration to. There are different methods for marketing your blog and almost all of them can be done at no charge. Here are the most popular ways to go about blog marketing:
- SEO
- Directories
- Trackbacking
- Leaving comments on other blogs
- Social bookmarking
- Article marketing
- Guest blogging
Guest blogging is actually gaining a foothold these days. It’s becoming very popular. But one method of blog marketing that is often overlooked is social bookmarking. Many blog marketers will bookmark their entire blog and totally forget about bookmarking each blog post. I think social bookmarking each blog post is a good idea. In some cases, you can get a hundred new visitors to your blog just by bookmarking one post. Of course, I wouldn’t expect that with every post, but if you bookmark 10 posts and get a hundred new visitors on one then you’ve done well. Don’t forget about social bookmarking.
