CommentLuv Enabled Blogs

I'm sure you've heard the terms "backlink" and "content is king" if you are a blogger or if you are thinking about becoming a blogger.  Obviously, in order for a blog to be successful, people have to be aware of it's existence and that just doesn't happen all by itself.  Firstly and most importantly, what is written on your blog needs to be as unique as possible.  That means you either write content yourself, pay someone to write content for you, or a very attractive third option is to invite guest bloggers to write content in exchange for putting their own links in their content.  The more unique content you have on your blog, the better your chances of getting ranked higher in the major search engines. But, ranking high isn't the only way to get traffic to your blog.

I very handy way to drive traffic to your blog is to look for CommentLuv enabled blogs that are DoFollow blogs.  If you find blogs that are relevant to the content you already have on your site, you can make a comment on these blogs.  CommentLuv enabled blogs will allow you to link one of the posts from your blog to the comment, which can drive readers of that blog's comments section to your blog.  If you're going to write comment, don't be mundane about it.  Actually read the post that you are commenting on make some worthwhile comment.  Don't just say something like "great blog."  That isn't helping either the blog owner or you.

There are other comment sections in other types of blogs that will allow you to enter your site URL, but that isn't as specific as being able to pick out one particular link.  The best driver of traffic to your site is to comment on sites that are ranked on the first page of Google, Bing, Yahoo! or Ask.com.  Commenting on first page blogs will help generate traffic faster to your site, because you have the chance to have more eyes upon you. 

If you have a WordPress blog, CommentLuv is a free plug-in, and I recommend that you had it to your site so commenters on your site can take advantage of the commenting features as well.  If someone who has a highly ranked blog comments on your site, this also helps your site to get better rankings.

Make Google AdSense Part of Your Plan

If you are writing a Blog, one important feature that you need to consider is Google AdSense.  Almost all website formats will offer you some way of integrating Google AdSense into your campaigns.  This may not make you a fortune, but AdSense will place ads on your site that are relevant to the content of your site, which also lends credibility to your site.  Personally, I'm very partial to Google Blogger and WordPress for my sites, as they both are set up very well to accommodate Google AdSense ads.  But, also you need to be careful that you are offering unique content on your website, because if you try to get by without unique content, you run the risk of having your AdSense ads pulled by Google.

For WordPress Blogs, I'm partial to registering my domain on Siteground, because it is very easy to set up a WordPress site on their servers.  It's pretty much one click and done, and then all you have to do is write your content.
