Blogging Tips – How To Increase Traffic To Your Blog.
Table of Contents
For my blog, Facebook groups have been an incredible marketing tool.
Not only are they a great way to share your latest posts but also meet and connect with like-minded people.
The life of a blogger can get lonely at times, you are on your own tapping away at your keyboard creating content for hours and hours (Or is this just me?)
Being in a Facebook group with other bloggers and entrepreneur's is incredible because they GET and understand what you're doing and everyone supports each other and gives encouragement.
Plus it helps to get more readers on your blog.
How To Increase Traffic To Your Blog.
In these groups, you get everyone from the beginner to the professionals, all asking and answering questions, sharing tips to increase your followers and so much more.
I have joined quite a lot of different groups over the last 3 months but the ones I am going to share with you in this post are by far the best in my opinion.
Before we jump right into this awesome list let me share with you 3 top tips for being in Facebook groups.
How To Increase Traffic To Your Blog – Top Tips For Groups.
1 – Read the rules
These are normally included in the description for the group, please don't join a group and start sharing your latest blog post as you will be kicked out.
2 – Introduce yourself
Every group I get accepted into I always introduce myself and say thank you for accepting me to the group. This starts up conversations with people in the group and is also a great way to start networking.
3 – Be Active
Don't be someone who just drops their latest blog post and runs, answer some questions if you can or ask some yourself.
Take part in sharing other peoples content, comments or likes. Be involved and active in your groups.

Hey! I know this is somewhat off-topic but I had to ask.
Does managing a well-established blog like yours take a massive amount work? I’m completely new to writing a blog, however, I do write in my diary every day.
I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my experience and feelings online.
Please let me know if you have any kind of ideas or tips for new aspiring blog owners.
Appreciate it!
Hi Shelly
In short yes it takes a lot of time and effort to get your blog established and also to get regular readers each day/week/month.
My best advice is to decide on who you would like to write for and then create your blog around your future readers.
Have a read of the article in the resources tab and it will show you everything I use to maintain this blog.
Thanks and good luck

I think that everything said made a ton of sense.
However, think about this, what if you composed a catchier
title? I ain’t saying your information isn’t good, but what if you added a title that
grabbed folk’s attention? I mean How To Increase Traffic To
Your Blog – Not Taught At School is a little vanilla.
You should peek at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they write article
headlines to grab people to click. You might
add a related video or a pic or two to get people interested about
everything’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it
might make your posts a little bit more interesting.
