Increasing The Amount Of Comments You Get

When I first started WassupBlog all those years ago I had decided to do things differently from my other blogs because I wanted Wassup to be a blog that I enjoyed above all the rest. To do that I needed to increase the amount of participation on the blog itself, because although I’m a bit on the quiet side in real life I make up for it in the blogging world.

When it comes to writing posts and conversing with my commentators it’s like I’m in another world, a world in which I can come out of my shell and be the persona that I always wanted to be. The guy that hold his own when out socialising instead of being the guy standing uncomfortably alone in the crowd.

Joining The DoFollow Movement

To do that I needed to lift the amount of action in the comment section of my posts. I did some research and came across what was called the dofollow movement and those who were a part of it displayed a little icon on their site to show others they were a part of that particular movement. Being a little naive at the time I thought it meant that the those bloggers participating in this group would follow the commentators back to their blog and leave a comment in return.

I thought it only fitting after talking about PR in my last post, Is There A Major Page Rank Around The Corner, that I do another update on how my Buy Lottery Tickets Online is doing. Before getting into it though I want everyone to know that although I write about PR a lot on this blog it’s not because I believe in PR or even that I hold it in high esteem, far from it. I do it because I know it generates a lot of interest thereby increasing my traffic as well as the comments on those posts.

Enough of PR, let’s talk about what is really important if you want a profitable site, SERPs or for those just getting into all this Search Engine Results Page. You are doing extremely well in the SERPs when your site appears on the first page of any given search engine for a particular search term.

SERPs For Buy Online Lotto Tickets Part 2

You may want to refer to the last post, Update On Buy Online Lottery Tickets to see exactly how my lottery site has progressed. Basically, in that post I wrote about my disappointment with Google because compared to the other search engines it was performing dismally. I’m happy to report that all my efforts have finally paid off and I am doing very well for my original search terms as well as other related search terms. Let’s have a look at exactly how well I’m doing shall we.

Buy Online Lotto Tickets: This is the search term that the lottery site was built on which is why I decided on the buyonlinelottotickets.com domain name. Read the rest of this entry

Some Hints For The Beginning Blogger

When you first start blogging you feel like you are all alone in the blogosphere. You’ve written your first post, heck you may even have written half a dozen posts but nothing is happening. You know the posts exists because you can go online and see it there in front of you but you’re not sure if anyone is reading it because you’re not getting any comments.

So you start Googling and reading other blogs to see what it is you’re doing wrong. You install Google Analytic so that you can at least see if anyone is actually visiting your blog. Of course in the very early days not much is going to happen unless you get out there and make it happen.

Telling People You Exist

The best way to do this is to be active on other blogs by reading their

posts and leaving great comments everywhere you go. It is very important that the comments you leave are filled with great content that add to the post because it’s these very comments that will show others you are going to be a force to be reckoned with. If your comments are better than all the other comments on any given post then you’re going to stand out from the rest and people will follow you back to your blog to find out more about you.

CommentLuv Premium At A Premium Price

I’m sure you guys remember my last post on CommentLuv, CommentLuv Premium Adding To Revenue Stream, how I outlined some of the things that made it so great and how it leaves the old commentluv plugin for dead. Well a lot of you expressed your interest in getting the plugin and wanted to know when it would be available to the general public. Well that time is now and I’m here to tell you that Andy is releasing the unlimited developer license for only $40! What’s more he is only making it available for seven days and after that he is taking it off the market again to make even more unbelievable changes to it.

What does this mean for you? It means that not only do you get it for a fantastic price, having a developer license means you can install it on as many blogs as you own. After the seven day trial period ends you will pay more and you will have to buy a separate one for every blog you own. If you have as many blogs as I do that will cost you quite a bit. Now, I’m not going to rave on about how good CommentLuv is or about how unbelievable this deal really is. Nope, the man to do that is Andy Bailey himself.

Knowing Your Traffic Source Can Help Your Blog

A few days back my mate Mitch did a post called Guest Posts, Comments Or Interviews; Which Drives More Traffic To Your Site where he examines where most of his traffic comes from, other than the search engines. It turns out that the site that generates most of the traffic happens to be this one. While some of it would have to be attributed to the amount of comments he leaves on this blog I would say his titles also have a lot to do with it. Although Mitch would say he doesn’t incorporate the best of titles I am sure that even if that it the case they still stir the reader enough for them to click on the CommentLuv link. This just goes to show how important a CommentLuv blog is for getting you that extra traffic.

Anyway, that post got me to thinking about where all my traffic was coming from, and that is saying something as I normally don’t bother all that much with statistics.

Where My Traffic Comes From

Well, as one would expect most of my traffic comes from Google, second on the list coming from direct traffic. Surprisingly my third greatest traffic source was Zaparena, a site that I’ve done several posts on and in case you’re interested I will link to those posts in the related posts section at the end of this post, sending me 238 visitors.

The next half dozen or so came from blog sites that list me as a dofollow blog. Although they seem to bring in a fair few visitors I would love to do a study to see how many of their comments actually get deleted as spam. I’m sure that the traffic I get from Zaparena is of a higher quality as it is more targeted than those blogs who are more interested in getting a link back to their site than anything else.
