Reading can give immense pleasure and entertainment. Books, in some form or the other, have been a part of the world’s culture from time immemorial, primarily as sources of information and knowledge. Whatever all of us know today is mainly because of our association with books at a young and impressionable age.

In this world of cyber dominance, books are fast losing their value. The present generation is glued to the Internet to satiate its curving for entertainment or fun. It is here that one feels the importance of eBooks. Simply put, eBooks are books that can be read online. Of late, these have become the new mediums of sharing information, ideas and discussing issues.

The difference between a successful blog and one that fades into nothing is in the number of readers visiting each day. If your goal is to create a large source of income from your site then attracting more visitors is key. This means that you need to increase both your new or unique traffic as well as regular readers.


Create a Loyal Readership


RSS Feed

This is one of the most basic pieces of the blog puzzle which creates a stable group of visitors reading each of your daily postings. An RSS feed notifies your readers that you have created another article and made a new posting on your blog. The RSS feed will also help create a stream of income as more visitors mean a higher page ranking and better search placement.


Social Networks and Engines

There are a number of social bookmarks and other networks available for blogs to utilize. Using a small piece of code on your website, each of your posts can be bookmarked, shared and voted on by readers around the world. Some blogger favorites are Digg, Technorati and Del.icio.us.


Friends and Family

When starting any new business you should first have the support of your family and friends! Let them know that you’ve started a blog and get them to visit on a regular basis. While this will increase your readership immediately, they can also support you by book marking your postings, referring their friends and talking about it with colleagues.


Increase New and Unique Traffic


Search Engine Optimization

The old saying, “it’s easier to keep a customer than find a new one” truly fits on the web. Attracting new visitors will be through a combination of regular postings, great content and search engine optimization techniques. When creating a new article, think about who will be visiting the site and what they will be searching for. Decide upon your main keywords and use them throughout the body of the post.


Niche Marketing

This technique requires a little additional work but it will pay off with a huge amount of traffic. By looking for optimized search terms with low competition you can direct a huge amount of free traffic to your site. The best part about niche marketing is that everything you do costs nothing and the traffic you receive will be hungry for what you’re offering!


Final Thoughts

Each of these tactics takes some time to implement on your site. The important thing to remember is that any source of residual income can only run on auto-pilot after the preparation work is done. By using these techniques within your blog strategy, you will find that your traffic will increase significantly and your increased income will follow!

Earlier i wrote a post on how traffic from Reddit / Digg influences your Adsense eranings. The main idea is that you get lots of traffic, but no clicks, and your main goal is to get backlinks to improve your page rank.

I got to reddit homepage several times, and it helped to improve my page rank and position in Google search results. Here are some tips i experinced myself and also read at other blogs.

1. Unique article.
The article or post you submitting shouldn’t be a copy of somebody else’s - you’ll get no votes for that.

A relatively new word with some rather old applications is making waves in the web development community. More and more web publishers are hearing the term link baiting and many are wondering what it is and if it is something that should fit into their web strategy.

Link baiting is really nothing more than a blanket phrase that is used to describe a number of tricks of the trade to drive one-way links to a site. Some of the tricks, unfortunately, are less-than-honorable. Many, however, are quite legitimate and very likely should be considered as part of an overall web strategy.

Disaster #13. Crashing Due To Satellite Navigation Failure

I refer to this when you set off in a direction for traffic but don’t actually plan where you’re supposed to be heading in the first place. You always have to remember what your ultimate objective is and what type of traffic best suits your needs. Don’t just go down one road of getting traffic because you can. You should rather choose your route carefully in advance, based on where you want to end up.
