If I started a Blog on a certain subject. What is the best way for me to increase traffic to my blog and to get people to post?

Depends what your blog is about? What sort of blog did you have in mind?

I might suggest you check out the link bait ideas in Link Building 101 - The Basics.

By all means, put the link to your blog with some evocative copy in your signature file in this forum and any others where you participate -- be sure to seek out and join forums that relate directly to your blog topic to maximize the interest and traffic from your forum participation.. Develop your Twitter and Facebook profiles; use those and social bookmarking to broadcast new posts. Submit to blog directories. Comment significantly on other blogs relevant to your topic - ignore PageRank or whether links are followed and concentrate on traffic. If you share information of value - both on your blog and in forums and social media, you will attract interest.

Hi TreyRealty
Blogs are the great way to increase traffic for the website.By submitting your blog to various blog directories and writing some article about your blogs or by press release you can easily achieve traffic for your blog.

One SEO I respect allows followed links on his blog, but states a clear "no spam" policy on the comment form. Comments are then moderated. He feels that's a good way to encourage comments and build a community.

Clearly a blogger needs to find a "voice," that is develop a style and a point of view on a particular topic.

I think first of all, u need to decide on the topic to discuss about. Avoid sharing your personal chronicle. Not many people, except for friends, will be very keen to read and post.

You can maintain your blog by regularly posting on.I know my some friends who have been maintaining their blogs regularly since 5 years but they are not able to earn a single buck.And I also know some people who are getting money from their blogs but they don't share their secrets with any other.Actually it depends on the contents of the blog so that readers return to your blog again and again then you can sustain the good site traffic of your blog and encash this traffic through google adsense programme.
