Promote your New Blog Post for Quick Traffic

Promote your New Blog Post for Quick Traffic

Your hours of hard work spent in crafting out a fantastic post is useless if there’s nobody to see it. Correct ain’t I?
Be it a new blog or an old one, every blogger needs traffic. Traffic will directly bring you conversions which ultimately makes your website profitable for you.
Today I am going to show 15 Websites that I use on a daily basis to get targeted visitors to my new blog posts.
1. Facebook Groups
Facebook is the largest social media platform to promote your posts. You may have shared your post on Facebook before, but you may not be following the correct strategy.
If you want to get targeted traffic using Facebook you need to figure out your target audience first. So if I am blogging under the Technology niche, I should be promoting my post in a group that focuses on Technology solely and not a Fitness or a Dating one.
Steps to follow while promoting a post on Facebook –
  • Make sure your post has  a catchy headline
  • Make sure you are targeting the right bunch of people
  • Try to make your profile prominent by helping others in the Group before sharing your article
  • Do not spam and get yourself banned :p

#2. Twitter

Twitter is another great place to promote your posts which many bloggers tend to ignore. There may be no groups system here as in Facebook, but with the right hashtags, you can do wonders with Twitter.
The best part is that it lets you reach out to big brands and influencers very easily present in your niche.
Steps to follow while promoting a post on Twitter –
  • Make sure you are sharing a quality content
  • Use the right hashtags
  • Promote your content several times a week. Try tweeting with and sometimes without images.

#3. Pinterest

Pinterest is the perfect social platform for promotion for image oriented blogs. If you run a fashion blog or a travel blog this platform can do wonders for you.

Pinterest is growing at a very fast rate, and people love it. The crowd on Pinterest is mostly female, but it is not a deal breaker for blogs targeting the male gender.

If you want to master the art of driving traffic using Pinterest, then you need check Melyssa Griffin’s blog. She is the author of a very popular course named as Pinfinite Growth which teaches people how to drive traffic from Pinterest.
Make sure you pin your images not only to your board but in others boards as well.

#4. ScoopIt 

ScoopIt is a content curation platform which lets you market your posts. The sad part is that if you want to use the advanced features then, you need to spend some bucks.

The free version is still quite usable to drive targetted visitors to your blog. As you would pin images to Pinterest, you need to pin posts here under a particular Topic.
The only tip for ScoopIt is that when you create a Topic don’t only add your posts but also add relevant posts from other blogs as well. It will help you generate more followers as you would do otherwise.

#5. Blog Engage

BlogEngage is a post aggregator site. The site lets users add your posts under different categories.
The website covers most of the topics. The only disappointing part is that you need to spend few bucks to use BlogEngage.
Despite the high price, it can be a great investment. Make sure you produce quality content. Quality Content Always Work.

#6. Google Plus

Google Plus is another big social media platform. According to a survey, Google Plus votes is the most valuable for higher rankings in Google. Thus Google Plus votes are precious for any blog.

Same as Facebook, Google Plus has many groups that you can easily join. You easily share your posts there. But make sure you find a niche Related Group.

#7. Triberr

Triberr is another great place to share your posts. It is a community site where marketer shares their posts and even make groups.
Similar to Reddit, the site has a upvote system. The more upvotes your post gets, the higher the visibility of your posts.

So if you write good posts relating to Marketing, then Triberr is the place to share your posts.

#8. Klinkk

Klinkk is another community website for marketers. The process of signing up and sharing your posts is dead simple.
