Don't forget the obvious! I don't see a link to your blog from your myLot profit! Also, if you post to forums, create a "signature line" that contains a link to your blog. This helps build backlinks to your blog (SEO technique). Cheers, Stan

Ah yes. myLot -- hehe. I haven't finish mine so it is not yet ready to expose it here on myLot profile. If everything set up and if my site is ready, I will link it here on myLot profile

Some people pay for backlinks from quality and relative sites,submission to directories,traffic exchange sites ex. easyhitsforU.com . That is all i know i hope that helps.

Oh thank you and paying for backlink is spending another money, but I think its okay as long as it is 'cheap' and affordable.

Content is king. Thats why most say. If you send me a PM and add me as a friend and link me to your blog I can give you a more sophisticated analysis of your blog. Do you currently earn money from your blog? If so you are already heading the right way. :) Good job. Most internet marketing gurus are just scammers that pretend they are gurus. Learn from your peers. Learn from other peoples success stories. What do they do that you dont? Then use it on your blog. Also, maybe you can make friends with your peers in the same topic. :) I can't give you much help but the generic ones unless you like me. :)

I think my suggestion is go to traffic exchange like easyhit4u or others which you can put your blog, also you can put in apsense for free exposure.

Apart from those that you have indicated, I think you may also try directory submissions. There are known to be hundreds of those listing directories that offer free listing [with reciprocal link in may cases] as well as for a small fee. Have you also tried BlogCatalog's VIB membership? For about $20 they offer a privilege member status and it is my experience through the trial period that there will be some good traffic rush.

Apart from all these blog directory submission is another process to drive visitor to a blog.It is a one time activity for a particular blog.

I would say thats enough just concentrate more on the blog contents.. Giving away some freebies that you can afford is also a great idea,, people do come on your blog thinking may b they can win it too!! Eg- You request people to send you some great and original one liners for your blog and the best or best 3 chosen gets a reward.. The ideas are infinite.. Hope I helped..

Ah. Okay. If I would concentrate on my blog contents, is it okay if I focus on a quality content rather than a keyword research? A keyword research is hassle and I experience once in my life that there is one company who didn't give any keywords to a writer. They just need a quality content because the best keyword would just follow after you write a quality content. I am not sure if this is effective.
