I’ve heard from many prominent bloggers about how they have used or at least recommend using MyBlogLog to increase your traffic, so naturally, soon after I launched my blog I went over to MyBlogLog and set up a profile for myself and my blog.
Although, simply setting up my account did bring in a small bit of traffic I was a little disappointed because I expected great results since so many bloggers have recommended this social networking site.
Then I started to notice how MyBlogLog helps others reach your profile through various ways.
So here is a list of 3 ways to market your blog by using MyBlogLog:
1. Add 15 Communities a day. This is the maximum amount of adds you can use for communities and contacts because each time you add a community to your ever growing list it features your profile on the top of that communities page as a “new member” and it will feature you on other peoples home pages that have added that community to their profile as a “new member” as well. You can see why this would help you get more visitors than simply letting your profile sit around and collect dust.
2. Add 15 Contacts a day. This doesn’t help you reach as many people as adding 15 communities does but it does help you reach 15 people, plus others that view those peoples profiles as well.
3. Warning: this is more gray-hat than the above two. Comment on a MyBlogLog users blog and then repeatedly click on the link that goes to your profile (from the comment). This makes your link appear on their site’s profile’s top links of the day. This exploit has been blogged about by quite a few people and may be frowned upon by some so use it at your own discretion.
One last tip for using number 1: the number of community members a community has will directly affect traffic to your blog because of the amount of people being reached by you being in the “new member” area.
