money advertising blog

Your blog is new and you just don’t know where to start advertising your self.

You are thinking to spend $100 in Google Adwords Advertising but don’t know if you are going to get that money paid back.

Blog is fairly old but don’t know if advertising will help you expand blog traffic?

Some of those questions we all bloggers ask our self at the very beginning.One of the common things we are asking our self “Is it worth to advertising?”. It is but advertising now days has become very dificult, lets take google adwords for example. To rank high in keyword like make money online, you will have to pay some big bucks for 1 click.

Is it really worth paying $1 or $2 per click? I would say no. For that kind of money you could get better traffic and quality as well.

Autosurf traffic, got to watch out for that one, yes you do get traffic but if you are running adsense you are violating [TOS]. And one of the disadvantages by autosurf traffic is that visitors only stay for 10-30 sec because they have to, not because they want to. In other words you could get 10.000 visitors but none of them care about you or your blog.

Free blog traffic , oh I like that!

I think traffic should be paid 1c per visit don’t you think? There are sites that will bring you quality traffic and it’s all free.

First I will tell you about the sites you can get free traffic, then I will explain how to get free traffic from blogs!

Digg.com – One of the most popular websites, where you can submit your blog links and if you get on front page your site might be so slow or even shut down, because they get your site hammered with thousands of visitors. Cost $0

Technorati.com – Once you get on top 100 list on technorati your website will boom every single day, people love the word “popular blogs” or ” Top 100 Blogs” even though some of the blogs in my opinion are very bad but got lucky! Cost $0

Stumbleupon.com – Stumble is my favorite, I love to stumble blogs and I like to be stumbled. SU is social networking websites that redirects visitors to your blog post and if you get lots of thumbs up your blog will be getting 5.000-20.000 visitors a day! See test results here ” StumbleUpon Experiment

Getting free advertising though other blogs that is little bit more complicated or let say, more work. There are blogs on internet that receive 20-30-40.000+ visitors a day, what you want to do is watch for couple of day’s when they are posting their articles, and you want to be no.1-3 commentator!.

This type of traffic is quality traffic because you visited blog that is in your nitche and their visitors most likely will click on your link make sure you don’t post long comment.

I have a service called Others Online that lets you advertise your blog for free, using specific keyword targeting. You register your URL, type in keywords and more about yourself, then we show you to people across the Web when you are relevant to them.

Kinda like Google Adwords but on a person-to-person basis, NOT business-to-person.

We’re just getting going, but generating thousands of ads and double-digit clicks for our users. Please feel free to check it out. We’re interested in user feedback!
