Now unless you went out and purchased someone else’s blog chances are your blog launched with only one very loyal reader - you. Maybe a few days later you received a few hits when you told your sister, father, girlfriend and best friend about your new blog but that’s about as far you went when it comes to finding readers.
Here are the top 10 techniques new bloggers can use to find readers. These are tips specifically for new bloggers, those people who have next-to-no audience at the moment and want to get the ball rolling.
It helps if you work on this list from top to bottom as each technique builds on the previous step to help you create momentum. Eventually once you establish enough momentum you gain what is called “traction”, which is a large enough audience base (about 500 readers a day is good) that you no longer have to work too hard on finding new readers. Instead your current loyal readers do the work for you through word of mouth.
Top 10 Tips
10. Write at least five major “pillar” articles. A pillar article is usually a tutorial style article aimed to teach your audience something. Generally they are longer than 500 words and have lots of very practical tips or advice. This article you are currently reading could be considered a pillar article since it is very practical and a good “how-to” lesson. This style of article has long term appeal, stays current (it isn’t news or time dependent) and offers real value and insight. The more pillars you have on your blog the better.
9. Write one new blog post per day minimum. Not every post has to be a pillar, but you should work on getting those five pillars done at the same time as you keep your blog fresh with a daily news or short article style post. The important thing here is to demonstrate to first time visitors that your blog is updated all the time so they feel that if they come back tomorrow they will likely find something new. This causes them to bookmark your site or subscribe to your blog feed.
You don’t have to produce one post per day all the time but it is important you do when your blog is brand new. Once you get traction you still need to keep the fresh content coming but your loyal audience will be more forgiving if you slow down to a few per week instead. The first few months are critical so the more content you can produce at this time the better.
8. Use a proper domain name. If you are serious about blogging be serious about what you call your blog. In order for people to easily spread the word about your blog you need an easily rememberable domain name. People often talk about blogs they like when they are speaking to friends in the real world (that’s the offline world, you remember that place right?) so you need to make it easy for them to spread the word and pass on your URL. Try and get a .com if you can and focus on small easy to remember domains rather than worry about having the correct keywords (of course if you can get great keywords and easy to remember then you’ve done a good job!).
7. Start commenting on other blogs. Once you have your pillar articles and your daily fresh smaller articles your blog is ready to be exposed to the world. One of the best ways to find the right type of reader for your blog is to comment on other people’s blogs. You should aim to comment on blogs focused on a similar niche topic to yours since the readers there will be more likely to be interested in your blog.
Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you leave a comment. This is how people find your blog. If you are a prolific commentor and always have something valuable to say then people will be interested to read more of your work and hence click through to visit your blog.
6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another blogger’s article you can do a trackback to their entry. What this does is leave a truncated summary of your blog post on their blog entry - it’s sort of like your blog telling someone else’s blog that you wrote an article mentioning them. Trackbacks often appear like comments.
This is a good technique because like leaving comments a trackback leaves a link from another blog back to yours for readers to follow, but it also does something very important - it gets the attention of another blogger. The other blogger will come and read your post eager to see what you wrote about them. They may then become a loyal reader of yours or at least monitor you and if you are lucky some time down the road they may do a post linking to your blog bringing in more new readers.
5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work. If they see people commenting on your blog then they infer that your content must be good since you have readers so they should stick around and see what all the fuss is about. To encourage comments you can simply pose a question in a blog post. Be sure to always respond to comments as well so you can keep the conversation going.
4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic. The idea is to collect some of the best content on a topic in a given week. Often many other blogs link back to a carnival host and as such the people that have articles featured in the carnival enjoy a spike in new readers.
To find the right blog carnival for your blog, do a search at blogcarnival.com/.
3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of new readers but it’s so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it’s worth the effort. Go to Blog Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it. You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!
2. Submit your articles to EzineArticles.com. This is another tip that doesn’t bring in hundreds of new visitors immediately (although it can if you keep doing it) but it’s worthwhile because you simply leverage what you already have - your pillar articles. Once a week or so take one of your pillar articles and submit it to Ezine Articles. Your article then becomes available to other people who can republish your article on their website or in their newsletter.
How you benefit is through what is called your “Resource Box”. You create your own resource box which is like a signature file where you include one to two sentences and link back to your website (or blog in this case). Anyone who publishes your article has to include your resource box so you get incoming links. If someone with a large newsletter publishes your article you can get a lot of new readers at once.
1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all of the techniques I’ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you do everything above you may bring in readers but they won’t stay or bother to come back. Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

Your asset that is placed as collateral against the loan acts as security to the lender and assures him that the loan will be repaid. In return for this assurance the lender is prepared to offer a low rate of interest.
Secured loans can be used for many purposes including debt consolidation, home improvements or repairs, wedding, holiday etc. Any amount from

It is very simple to set up multiple streams of income but takes time to build substantial monthly income. People who master this for of income, retire early and become one of the wealthiest people around.
How does passive income work? First you need to understand the definition: passive means without continuous cash and time contribution after initial setup. If you are actively involved or putting more money into the investment then you are missing the entire concept.
Banks give out large sums of money on a regular basis and demand it back with interest. If you think demand is a strong word, try missing your repayments and then see what happens. Banks rely on the monthly instalments with interest to survive and give out more loans. If you cut off repayments you are closing of one of their income streams and then it will get very ugly, very fast. You will end up wondering what went wrong and what happened to those friendly faces you dealt with when you were signing for the loan. When they served you tea or coffee.
The bank wishes to earn this type of income and any activity that causes them or their employees to be involved after setup costs them money and time; the two comodities they did not wish to invest any further.
This makes sense but how do you as an internet marketer build this type of income to join the heavy hitters and the guru’s without breaking the bank. You can build it slowly on your own with trial and error and no guarantee of ultimate success.
To start, a number of products to sell are necessary. Automated websites on your own registered domains are an abselute requirement and they must run seemlesly to accomodate all your web visitors. Up-to-date material to give away attract more visitors and generate more traffic automatically. The invite a friend programs are a very important to tap into the super powerful marketing tactic of viral marketing.
Such information is scatered throughout the internet and will cost a small fortune to gather. This need not be so, you can join a group of marketers lead by an internet marketer who specialises in Affiliate success and helped many people reach that elusive passive income to retire very early if they so wish.
This marketer is famous for giving it like it is and has no time for hype. One of his partners has re-opened only 500 special slots to the marketer’s membershipsite called Affiliatelandmine which is sold out. This rare opportunity is for anyone who wishes to build strong passive income streams that will allow you to retire very early. If the open spots run out then the opportunity ends, no exceptions.
Amateur marketers will also find by-the-hand guidance on everything from domain name registration to webscript uploading and manipulation using FTP software, fully designed websites and full support by his staff.
You will find all this by clicking this special link and join through the partner’s website. This promotion is time sensetive and is not expected to last long. Hurry and join, your financial freedom awaits.

Websites that submit deep links hope to boost SERP rankings to their inner pages and not just their home page. A website owner must be very careful to follow the Directory Guidelines to insure that their website qualifys for a listing.
Deep Links can also be very beneficial to Directories to gain PR for their category pages. The directory market is decided by the PR of not just the home page but categories as well
If you like this post, please buy me a beer for $3 8-)One might ask, why deep link? There are many reasons why. Website owners might target a particular inner page which they would like to gain rankings for. When submitting your deeplinks to a web directory, you will give your inner pages much more exposure this way.
You will also help the SERPS for that particular deep linked page as well. Since you will have links going back only to that particular deep linked page, it could increase the PR of that page.
Directories such as The Open Directory Project are an excellent source for anyone looking for information on the internet as well as paramount to getting traffic to websites. DMOZ provides valuable PR and backlinks to those that are lucky enough to get included
There are basically two types of directories and they are free directories and paid directories that require a fee for each submission. The up side of a free directory is that is costs nothing, but you can’t be sure if your submission will ever be posted. Paid directories are a much better benefit since the paid directory owners keep a much closer eye on their directory. They are sure to drop any submissions from low quality sites that will only have negative impact on reputation from search engines.
There are an astounding number of link directories available on the internet and if you use the term link directory to search on Google, you will see that there are well over a million listed, so your choices are many. Displaying your site on a link directory lends credibility to your website and this is the main reason for doing it, also it can help to generate hits and business on your site.
It is recommended that you submit to as many free directories as possible, but your submission must have solid information and be unique, to increase its chances of acceptance. The value of link directories can not be understated and more and more people are using them for information on the internet.

RAR files
A RAR file is a compressed archive that can contain other files. The RAR extension is often used when putting files online because RAR makes files smaller (and downloads faster). A single large file can also be split up in a number of .rar files, which is great for movie downloads and the like. To open a RAR file you will need a RAR extractor.
DAA Files
DAA files are disk images. This means that a .daa file contains an exact copy of a CD or a DVD - whether it be a movie, a game or simply a few gigabytes of accounting data. These are not as popular as ISO disk image files but are used because they have some unique features that .iso files lack. See this link on how to open them - DAA file.
ISO and BIN files
As mentioned above, .iso files contain a copy of a CD or DVD. BIN files are similar, and most applications that can open ISO files can also handle .bin files. The ISO is pretty much the standart disk image format and is very common. There are many different tools that can open .iso files, yet I prefer Nero.
Now you know how to open those strange files.
