Guide to increase website visitors


So my previous article about getting your site worth the stop was more general. Now i'll post step by step guide what you need to do in order to optimize your blog. Yes this is only for blogs, though it can be useful for website also. This is to generally optimize your blog and make it better looking, increase traffic and optimize your earning and i'm telling you this free, for this kind of information and guides you usually need to pay hundred of dollars!
If you have already published blog skip the first few steps!

Step 1
Before you publish your blog make it nice and content rich. No one wants to see 3-4 articles blog with nothing on it and they surely won't even think of clicking your ads.

Step 2
Add at least 5 quality articles on your blog before you publish, all articles must contain at least 500 words in them.

Step 3
Add widgets and useful script on your blog.
- add RSS/ATOM subscription button
- add blog archive
- add bookmark and Digg, Delicious, Reddit and similar buttons or just use "add me bookmark" button
- put a search script for your blog
- put related site links
- add a counter(this is also useful for keeping track with your traffic)
- add your slogan or logo at the top of your blog
-add your ads

Step 4
Go on through your keywords again and make sure all of the keywords are 100% related to your article content. Use Google keyword tool to help you choose keywords

Step 5
Publish your blog

Step 6
As soon as you publish your blog submit it to search engines and web directories.
Read my "submit to search engines" and "get your website through the ranks" articles to optimize your submission  text and keywords.

Step 7
Submit your articles to: Digg, Del.ic.io, Reddit, stumbleupon, spurl, Google bookmarks, yahoo myweb and feedmelinks.

Step 8
Your 6th or 7th etc... article should have 2-3 images or streaming video in it so it differentiates from your other articles.

Step 9
It will pass around 10 days until your blog is indexed by Google and up to 30 days to get indexed by Yahoo and MSN search engines so you don't really need to post in your blog every day but you also need to post a new article 5 days until your last.
So posting fresh articles on a 3 day scale would be perfect for starters, after your blog gets indexed you'll need to post articles at least on a 2 day scale

Step 10
Link exchange. This is a very important part in order to get a better page rank for your blog. Page rank is not crucial but it really helps in the later stages.
Make sure you exchange links with blogs that have similar content as your blog. You can make an exception if you have a link exchange offer from a pagerank 4 or 5 blog.

Step 11
Sometimes you need to refer your visitors to older articles you've posted in case they've heaven't seen them or just skipped them for some reason. So include a link to some older article you've made but make sure it is related to the new one you are posting!

Step 12
Always do little experiments, even if your traffic is high and you have nice earnings still experiment a little. Put a different blog template, change the text color, move your ads to a new place, add some other widgets and/or script and so on...
