Bring traffic to your blogs

1. Technorati is one of the best traffic providers for bloggers. It makes your blog much easier to find when people search by technorati tags. Technorati is also a large blog ranking engine. Based on the number of links to your blog from various websites, your blog is given a rank. The higher your rank the easier your blog is to find when people search for things. A higher rank gives your blog greater credibility in technorati.

2. In my opinion twitter is a really good platform to showcase your blog posts, mainly because of it’s popularity and also because many other fellow bloggers and potential readers are using it on a large scale to share links and information.

3. Other than twitter, social bookmarking sites like Digg, Stumbleupon, Delicious and Blogengage work on a similar principle.

4. Submitting articles to the article directories.

5. Submitting blogs in the blog directories.

6. Guest Posting is a really good technique to gain a decent traffic for your blog. When you become a guest poster at a popular blog, you get a link back to your website and you also get exposure to new traffic. If you write something useful, then a lot of readers from the site will be directed towards your website.

7. By Commenting can get you decent amount of traffic.

What is social bookmarking?

What is social bookmarking?

Note: Delicious is the site explained here.

Delicious is a social bookmarking website, which means it is designed to allow you to store and share bookmarks on the web, instead of inside your browser. This has several advantages.

First, you can get to your bookmarks from anywhere, no matter whether you're at home, at work, in a library, or on a friend's computer.

Second, you can share your bookmarks publicly, so your friends, coworkers, and other people can view them for reference, amusement, collaboration, or anything else. (Note that you can also mark bookmarks on Delicious as private – only viewable by you – if you like.)

Third, you can find other people on Delicious who have interesting bookmarks and add their links to your own collection. Everyone on Delicious chooses to save their bookmarks for a reason. You have access to the links that everyone wants to remember. You can see whether two people have chosen to remember a link, or whether it was useful enough for a thousand people to remember – which may help you find things that are useful for you, too.
