Many new bloggers or those who have yet to master SEO shy away from learning the ins and outs of SEO as a result of fear – fear that it is to difficult or that it cannot be achieved. But it’s important not to be discouraged by initial results and to always be working on your SEO – because in the long run, this will count for the majority of your blog traffic.

5. FORMATTING YOUR POSTS BETTER
When new readers land on your blog posts, you want them to be so impressed with your content that they feel obliged to follow your social media and subscribe in order to stay updated on your upcoming posts. Put simply, blogs are visual. Make ’em look good!
​
6. MASTER GOOGLE ANALYTICS
Having Google Analytics is one thing – monitoring it is another thing – and mastering it is the key to success. Once inside the dashboard, be sure to take a look around. Log into your Google Analytics dashboard and take a look around – you’ll be shocked by how insightful the information is.
​
7. USE LINKS IN YOUR POSTS
Increasing external traffic is the main goal, but increasing internal traffic within your posts is equally as important. Be sure to use links in your posts to your other content to encourage readers to visit other posts on your blog.
​
8. CHECK FOR BROKEN LINKS
No one likes to click on a link and have it go nowhere – or redirect to a 404. Here’s a great free resource to check your blog for broken links.
​
9. TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW AND EVERYONE THEY KNOW
It’s no secret that social media is here to stay. But if there’s one thing more powerful than social media, it’s word of mouth advertising. The reality is that people trust what they hear from a friend. So be sure to mention your blog with pride and encourage everyone you know to visit your blog, so they tell everyone they know…...... and so on and so forth.
​
10. ENCOURAGE YOUR READERS TO SUBSCRIBE
A final thought – subscriptions. In the current age of social media, subscriptions are often overlooked. But we’re also in the age of the smart phone – meaning we receive alerts each and every time we receive an email. Subscriptions thus become the most direct way to reach your readers every time you write a new post. Be sure to offer multiple subscription prompts on your website to get your readers to subscribe.
