There are quite a few blogger forums that you can sign up for on the internet. One is known as Bloggeries, where you can show off your blog, get your blog reviewed or review other blogs, and find lots of tools that you can use for your own blog. Another good place to go is to Blog Forum. Blog Forum, like Bloggeries, has spots for you to market and show off your blog. Blogger forums are a great place to advertise your blogs.
If you use your blog to advertise something that you are selling, or you want to get a lot of traffic to your blog in order to make money, you want to go someplace where it can get exposure. When you advertise on a blog forum, you know that you are placing your advertisement in a place where blogging is something that people enjoy.
Just remember when you are posting to a forum to read the rules and abide by them. That way you'll get your blog noticed and you will know that you are doing the right thing.
If you want to have more people visit your blog, there are plenty of blog directories on the Internet that you can submit your blog to so that people will come and visit it. Most blog directories are listed by the topics that the blogs cover.
Blog Catalog is a free blog directory that offers categories such as career and jobs, writing, Iraq, and many others. It has features such as featured blogs and other things to offer those who submit their blogs there.
Another great place to add your blog is blog-drectory.org. Not only do they have an extensive list of categories with sub categories, you can get your blog reviewed. For the most popular blogs, it shows the amount of hits that blogs have and if they have any reviews. As well as listing by category, the blogs are also listed by location.
There are other blog directories on the Internet - these are only a couple of them. But blog directories are a great place to advertise your blog and to make new contacts. You never know what you find when you're browsing through the directory and you will may just find out information that you never knew. Some of the blog directories offer chat features as well, so that you can meet other people easily. Blogging traffic is a give and take relationship. Sometimes one of the best ways to get traffic to your blog is by visiting someone else's blog.
Go to their blog and read one of their posts, or read a few of them. Chances are that you are going to find something that you have in common.
When you find something that you find truly interesting on a blog, leave a comment so that they know that you were there. When you are commenting on someone's post, you want to make sure that you don't leave just a generic comment. If you like the post, say something about what you read in the post.
But be sure that you are sincere when you are commenting, and don't make them feel like you're just fishing for traffic.
