Linking to Increase Blog Traffic

Internet passive income, Passive Income Business, marketing promotion 4 Comments

I signed up for the James Brausch newsletter a while back and he has sent out two great articles in a row. This is great because usually, you sign up to a newsletter hoping for help only to have the author come up short. This hasnt been the case with the newsletter updates from James Brausch.

The most recent update on increasing blog traffic built on the first update about the alexa toolbar. Great stuff for someone like myself that is more used to traditional website promotion but has fallen behind with the blogger and wordpress craze. This type of writing and information gives me something to sink my teeth into and allows me to take action in promoting my wordpress blog to gain more traffic.

Like everyone else it is very easy to fall into the trap of thinking that everyone else knows something that you dont and that there is a quick way to make this all come together. Well the long and short of it is that there is always more to know but nothing worth having ever comes quick.

Another awesome point that James makes is that the best way to succeed in any endevour is to build relationships. Now if you are on your computer typing away, you probably like a bit more of the solitary lifestyle. Me too. But in order to make it in this world, you need help. People are much more likely to help people they have a relationship with than a complete stranger.

Bottom line is that if you would like people to know you exist, then you have to get out there and make friends. The old saying of “Two heads are better than one” certainly applies to the internet and traffic. The only thing with the internet is that its not two heads when you make the right friends but millions.

Offer good content with no strings attached, help people without wanting a payoff. Its amazing how often when you just do things the right way, everything falls into place.

    Hey Neighbor (fellow Utahn),

    I went to add you to my recommended blogs list and had a bit of a challenge finding your name.

    I think I have it now (RB), but my wife says I should ask before I list your name since it appears you may not want your name public.

    Permission?

    Hey Ray,

    Never mind… I found your About page and see that you have made your name public.

    Great blog!

    Ray I think you are right about many things. I am new to the internet marketing game, but already I see that there is no easy way to make money, it takes hard work. anyway, if you get around to it let me know what you think of my site at Domain Name Guide I’ve got a few more in the works, but I found your site very helpful.

    Glad I could help. Its always trial and error but everyonce and awhile, you find something that works…and there is where you should spend the majority of your time.
