8 Signs You Suck at Blogging

Are you a blogger? Do you often wonder why your blog gets no traffic and no subscribers? This is something many bloggers ask themselves every day. They blog regularly and the traffic just does not come.

I have come up with the top 8 reasons I believe that your blog sucks and if any of the tips below remind you of you then you know what you need to do too change things.

1. Your blogs theme is a load of rubbish and the layout is atrocious. You have too many ads overlapping and flashing in your visitor’s eyes and your text is too small to read.

2. You have copied your posts straight of another blog. Ask yourself this, if they have read it somewhere else why they would want to come to your blog to read it again. Plus duplicate content results in NO search engine traffic.

3. You don’t post enough. You should aim to update your blog every day or at least every other day. Once a week or month will not get you anywhere.

4. Your blog posts are incredibly boring. People don’t want to read about boring things, so if your life sucks and you blog about it then chances are your blog sucks.

5. You offer no response to your visitors, if they leave you a comment then respond to it and they will return.

6. Your blog posts are all made up. People soon get fed up when you exaggerate the truth. Blog honestly at all times to build trust.

7. You don’t spend enough time on your blog. Blogging is not just about posting regularly but also about changing things around on it as it gives the impression of being innovative.

8. You have lost the passion and no longer bother to post often. You are quite happy to make the pittance that your blog makes and leave it at that.

Pagerank is Updating So Bloody What

So it’s that time of year again when the Almighty god of Google updates its pagerank and all the little green bar trolls start getting all overly excited. So bloody what who actually gives a damn about pagerank? not bloody me for starters.

What is the big deal with pr and why do the trolls get so excited? well because it means they can sell links on their websites for stupid amounts of money and then in 2-3 months time when God removes there pagerank they have something else to whinge about.

Pagerank makes absolutely no difference to a websites performance in the search engines what so ever regardless of what people might say. What it does do is mean people can charge for links which as we all know God does not like.

I see that once this update is complete my blog will be getting a pagerank of 3 and as far as I am concerned God can take is 3 and stick it right up his *$&%.

  • Will it improve my sites position in the serps NO
  • Will it get me more subscribers NO
  • Will it make me more money NO

So come tell us what you think we want to know.

The A-z Of Traffic Part 3

Welcome to part 3 of our A-z of traffic. Today we will be looking at J-M.

J – Joint Ventures

Joint ventures are a great way of building not only traffic but subscribers to your mailing list as well. Create an ebook and submit to the many joint ventures that are on the net. The idea is to get your product in early and refer as many people as you can before the joint venture goes public.

This will mean that your product will feature higher up the list and not on page 40. Here is a good website that i check daily for new joint ventures that are accepting new products.
