Few days ago, I was given a question like “How do you increase your blog traffic?” If you have been paying attention on blogs that talk about blogging, most of them will give you similar answers and one of them is - Join social bookmarking / networking community. There are so many social networking communities around the web, which is the best to join? Well, in my opinion, there is no “best” community to join. The more communities you join, the better. However, please do not spam the communities.
For starters, I would recommend you to join social communities that are widely known or popular. I have joined some of those, but didn’t pay much attention to it. After some time, I feel the need of being involved in these communities. Not only for blog traffic, but also for discovery of new sites, great articles, etc… You will really be amazed with the results.
I was thinking of sticking to one social bookmarking community, but it is insufficient as you cannot omit the great possibility that other useful articles are shared among other communities as well. Once you join such communities, you can also submit your blog posts that you think is worth sharing. Hence, another possibility for you to gain new readership.
Today, I’ve made up my mind to join Digg. I’m still very new there and will have to spend some time to get along with it. If you are a Digger, remember to add me to your friend list as well. And of course, if you find any of my posts worth sharing, please feel free to Digg it. That will be much appreciated.
