5 Ways to Promote Your Blog Free
Myspace: recently launched a news service and sites wanting to be considered for this can submit their site here. Wow! Imagine the traffic you would get if you got lucky and were listed on Myspace. A site that has reached well over 100 million users and still going!
I’ve looked through their FAQ and they do not have any requirements outlined that your blog must meet in order to be accepted. So just click the link and submit keep your fingers crossed and maybe your server will crash from traffic.
Link Love: the question you must ask yourself is do you really care who links to you? Is there such a thing as a bad link? Is link exchange bad? Things to think about; Small Sites Grow, Links Equal Traffic, and it takes link love for Technorati, and Google to find you irresistible.
Recluse: just stop it if you fit into this category. If you are posting content to your blog daily and never linking or talking about other bloggers or websites you are a loner and you need to start interacting with other people. Guess what? Interaction equals traffic! Who knows maybe you are an exceptional recluse jet eye blogger and you do not need the help of others. More insight here because I’m not a Hermit!

Good article. I also posted an article about how to get free traffic for your blog.
I would add ‘Networking’ to your list – I know you have included link exchanges but I think networking goes even further; it encompasses really getting to know people and sharing ideas both new and old.

Thanks for the tips, I just submitted my site to myspace, lets see what happens. One thing though man, why are you not a follower? (removing the no follow tags) Just wondering.
Good tips! I had heard a bit about the MySpace News thing, but never checked it out. I have now submitted my blog
Yep, I think you hit on something with the focus on headlines.
I know that selecting the right niche and then beating your headlines into submission works.
Great post! These tips can definitely come in handy! Figured I would follow your advice and comment.

Hi Jason, great article. Thanks for taking the time to share this info with us, I think your comments on avoiding reclusion hit the target pretty well, and it’s something I’ve found myself doing on occasion. It seems easy for me to get obsessed with writing the next article or post and forget about the prerequisite marketing aspect.
What got you into blogging in the first place?
Warm Regards, -Matt
