How do you drive traffic to your site?
without spending a dime on advertising.
I've googled but I'd like to hear how you guys do it.
I have this blog on blogger and it's not getting any page views. what would you suggest I do so the blog could be "found?"

I drive traffic to my dreamstime portfolio by using keyword type words that can be found, they are on my favorite subjects. I have referred many members this way, catering to people that are looking for that subject type I create. I think if you type out some good paragraphs on your blog incorporated with the keywords you think others may use to find you may be a way. I'm not an expert only know what works for me. |

Thanks. But I was asking about how to make your blog be "found." Like if there is some html coding that helps it in google searches. things like that. =) |

I don't know if you can add your own coding into a blog??? Maybe can but I don't know. You can promote your blog by finding free site submits.
www.freewebsubmission.com is a good free resource tool to use to help in this. I've used it in the past and worked great they also have other tools that help. |

Just update your blog continue and you will have visitors. The best way to make visitors for your blog, is to write, write and write. Google is indexing automatic all the pages and send visitors to your site. For blogs, is very healthy to subscribe in blogrrols. Change links with other bloggers and so on.

Make sure to have your own blog or website. Spend some time on forums. Create a facebook or Twitter account strictly for your photography, or even a Facebook fan page. All these things help.
Cheers,
Paul. |

You can also post your blog link to your profile on Dreamstime. That's what I've done. :)

These are very good suggestions. And make sure, that your page isn't static. Give always something fresh to your visitors. New images, new tips, new links. I have a Facebook page too, but I don't see it as a Fans page. It's just a great place to share information about photography with my friends. I love to do it and I'm happy if some of my friends find it useful or interesting too. if you want to attract customers with your site, you have to offer something on your site, what your customers need. some free images? A little bit lower prices? Some special service - like print, image search etc. If you provide something useful on your site, customers will come.
Good luck! |

Sorry, I missed that comment...
You can promote your blog articles by posting links to them on your Web page or Facebook page or Twitter account. Or if you have an article about some specific topic (like "Tips for night photography" or "How to save vector files"), you can google for blogs or forums, where people are asking questions about such topics and if you have a good answer for them in your blog, you can post your link there.
Just some ideas.
Good luck! |
