Make Money Blogging - Step 8 - New Content Means More Traffic

By


<< Step 7 - A Call To Action <<

You're almost ready to start a rush of traffic to your blog, but you need to ensure that you'll have one more thing: new content.

Websites that have frequent, new content are seen as very valuable to search engines which will raise your page in search engine rankings and ensure consistent traffic.

As I mentioned before, comments are a great way to get "new content" but that requires input from either you or your readers. You need a way to automatically update your blogs with fresh content without anyone having to do anything.

It might seem odd to you that you can actually make money from blogging, but you can and you should Sign Up to HubPages so that you can follow this 9 step process and start making money online with me!

Relevant News

There are many sites that will actually let you link to current news stories on their site.

  • You select the keywords and relevant news stories will be selected.
  • Then you put the code at the bottom of your blog and links to those news stories and short descriptions will appear.
  • As new stories come in, your news links will be automatically updated.

This is PERFECT for creating automatically updated, new content for your blog...

Now your blog is more valuable to search engines because you have frequent new content, more valuable to your readers because you provide them with links to other relevant news articles and more valuable to you because your blogs will get more traffic!

If you are using HubPages to create your blogs then this step is as easy as selecting keywords and deciding on where you want to include your "news capsule". There's NO coding involved!

I usually include 3 news stories and put them at the very bottom of my blog. This gives your readers a variety of stories to look at if they're looking for more on that topic after they finish reading your blog.

This is a very simple step but it is an important step because it will keep the value of your blogs up higher even whenever no one's commenting.

When you put this step into play I can assure you that you will see a steadier flow of traffic to your blogs!

So go ahead and get started.

Start adding relevant news links, that will be automatically updated, to each and every one of your blogs.

Just try to get creative with your keyword phrases Hello, hello, If you don't like the headlines then use a different one and don't forget that you can use negative keywords too!

Good advice, Bendo, I often add catchannal or dogchannal to my dog and cat breed hubs, and also link to other hubbers. The sites tend to increase in traffic afterwards. (: v
