Computer and Web Articles

I spend A LOT of time on the web. During this time, I’ve read A LOT of blog posts and have seen some excellent tactics that bloggers have used to draw in more subscribers. Here are a few to consider for your blog:

a) Make sure people aren’t required to be brain surgeons or rocket scientists in order to subscribe. Make subscription options bold, obvious and visible from every page within your blog, and offer an e-mail alternative to RSS.

b) Guest blog. Yep, that’s right. Sometimes guest blogging and providing fresh, original content on a friend or associate’s related blog can win you a bunch of new subscribers. Just make sure that you get to write a byline at the end of your post that contains a link pointing back to your blog.

c) Post in related forums. If you’re an active and helpful participant in a forum related to the content that you blog about, you can be sure that forum members will be checking out your site if you include a link in your forum post footers. You couldn’t ask for more targeted, perfect visitors!
