How to rapidly increase your blog or website traffic with guest posts

Recently, there are over 1000 people coming into the blogosphere everyday with only about 1% of them making it. Do you wonder why others quite even after a long time of struggling and toiling? It just simply because they were unable to start making money easily from blogging as most people believes that a blog is a money dispensing machine that you just come into and you immediately start making money or because they were unable to get enough people to read their post. As a blogger, it is indeed a great thing of joy to know that there are indeed people reading your articles in your blog and probably leaving their comments. When you start blogging don't expect to start getting one million page views a day immediately after building your blog, remember Rome was not built in a day. So you have to give it time for your potential readers to get to know about your blog and start visiting it.

Of all the the things listed in the extra works you need to do to increase your blog traffic, I want to discuss guest posting in details and how it generates thousands of new visitors and new email subscribers daily to your blog.

WHAT IS GUEST POSTING

Guest posting simply means creating new and original contents or articles and publishing it in another blog or website normally attaching backlinks to your blog or website.

I know you may see it as being somehow for you to just make out time and write a new article and then publish it in another blog  instead of publishing it in your blog to keep your readers engaged. Actually posting such article in your blog may keep your readers engaged but it might not just get to enough people (traffic) as it would when you make it a guest post to a blog with enough readers and high organic traffic. Which means that you are indirectly promoting your own blog because the readers of the blog will like to see more of your articles hence they will like to click on your backlinks and blog URL in the post.

A guest post is just a like an upcoming musician featuring a star in his/her song. Just like when you feature Chris Brown or Wizkid  in your song, then you are sure that a lot of people is going to hear the song and will get to know you better hence, promoting your own brand.

BENEFITS OF MAKING GUEST POSTS;

When we start talking of the benefits attached to guest posting, there are a lot that will cross our mind because the benefits that comes with guest posting are indeed enormous. I will brief you on few of the benefits of guest posting and why you should try guest posting today.

• IT GROWS YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE

As a blogger, large social media followers like Facebook page followers, twitter followers, Instagram followers etc is indeed an important factor that need to be put into consideration while blogging. When you have a good social media profile (high social media followers) it will help increase the traffic of your blog or website because your followers would always be notified when you make a new post in your blog by you sharing the title and link of such new post to your social media page.

As a guest blogger, when you write amazing and engaging contents , readers of your article will like to get more of your post by following you up in your social media account hence building your social media presence.

• IT HELPS YOU GET ORGANIC TRAFFIC

When you submit a guest post in blog with high search engine ranking (very visible to search engines) you are indirectly making your blog visible to search engine because the search engine crawlers don't just see the blog alone it also craws the backlinks in any post made in the blog. So with guest posting anyone that sees the blog in google search or any other search engine will definitely visit your blog once you write great and engaging contents

With guest posting on a big blog you are sure of a high and a quality traffic to your blog. I said a quality traffic because not all traffic to your site is indeed good. For instance, When you have 1000 visitors a day with about 90% bounce rate then its not a quality traffic but when you receive 1000 visitors with less than 40% bounce rate , then it is indeed a quality traffic and that's the kind of traffic you get by guest posting quality and engaging contents on big blogs

• IT DEVELOPES YOUR ONLINE INFLUENCE

The main purpose of any blog post is to solve problem or to teach people new things. When your post does not solve any problem or does not add value to your readers, then its not worthy to be published on any blog. In fact it is not suppose to have been written. But when you write problem solving articles it gets readers attracted to you and your blog.

So when you submit a problem solving article to a big blog, it increases the number of people that will read your post, hence, you are now impacting on a larger number of people and at the same time making name for yourself and your blog.

• IT BUILDS YOUR PORTFOLIO AND CREDIBILITY

When you write well then you are worth people's attention. There is no other way of people knowing that you write well without reading any article you have written. So when you submit your well written and problem solving article to another blog with high traffic , people will get to know about your writing ability and hence would be able to trust you and like to read more of your articles.

So when you submit an article on a big blog you are indirectly telling people of your credibility and ability to profer solutions to their problems related to your blog niche and would be glad to follow your blog for more engaging content and problem solving articles.

• IT IMPROVES YOUR WRITING STANDARD

When making a guest post to a blog, you are bound to meet some certain standard of writing as stated by the blog administrator(s).

By trying to meet all this writing standard in your articles you are training yourself on writing better and standard articles in your own blog.

Guest posting helps you know what others thinks about your writing ability and skills because your readers might not tell you but the admin of a blog before accepting your post must go through it and make corrections if necessary hence teaching you on writing great contents.

• CREATION OF AWARENESS

One of the main reasons of guest posting is to create awareness.That is to tell the world that you and your blog exist by posting in an already know and well visited blog or website. When you write well , you are paving way for your blog to grow big in the blogosphere.

Just like I said before that guest posting is like an upcoming artiste featuring a superstar in his or her song. When you guest post on a popular and well visited blog, your blog will be know by a large number of people

As there are billions of blogs already created with more still being created on daily basis, guest posting of quality and engaging content in a big blog will make you and your blog stand out of the crowd so that the world can really hear your voice or feel your presence.

HOW TO WRITE A QUALITY GUEST POST

Most times, people especially newbies jump into writing and submitting a guest post to another blog without considering the quality of the article they have written . To ensure positive outcome from your guest post, you have to make sure you write a quality article for publishing. Some important factors to take note of while writing a guest a post is stated below:

• YOUR ARTICLE MUST BE RELATED TO THE NICHE OF THE BLOG YOU ARE WRITING TO

Before writing a guest post, consider the niche of the blog you want to submit the article to and write a post that is related to the blog's niche. If it is a technology blog then you write a technology related article for submission in the blog . Don't start writing about fashion, entertainment or any other topic that is not tech-related to avoid your article being rejected.

When writing to a technology blog, consider the kind of topics found in the blog whether the blog is meant for only computers, softwares, cars, phones, internet, browsing tricks, blogging tips, make money online etc because some technology blogs focus only on a particular field of technology while some covers everything that has to do with technology. The same goes to other blog niches like an entertainment blog, consider if the blog writes only on musicians, Nollywood, Hollywood, Bollywood, movies in general, celebrities etc before submitting a guest post to the blog. With this in mind while writing you will always right a good article that is related to the niche of the blog you are writing to.

• WRITE TO A BLOG IN YOUR OWN BLOG NICHE

Before writing a guest post always look for a blog in your own blog's niche to submit the article to. This will help increase the traffic to your site and make your backlinks effective.

Don't take because a particular entertainment blog is very popular, then you go and and write an article on entertainment and submit  so that large number  people can visit your blog while you are operating a technology blog. They wount even visit your blog once they know its not an entertainment blog because they are all entertainment lovers so they would always want to visit an entertainment blog. Although their might be some who would also love tech blogs that would visit your blog but they wount be enough. Even if you decide not to state the niche of your blog in the article, then there wount be any backlinks because you can't make reference to a technology blog while talking about entertainment. Even if they fall into your trick (not knowing your blog niche) their will always be up to 98% bounce rate of all the traffic from such a guest post you made hence, its worthless.

• READ CONDITIONS FOR GUEST POSTING ON THE BLOG

To avoid your guest post being rejected , first and foremost check the conditions you are to meet before your post is accepted on the blog before writing.

If the conditions are what you can meet up with, then you can proceed to write but if you can't then you look for another blog.

Some blogs would say a minimum of 1000 words while others will say a minimum of 500 words depending on the blog. Other conditions may include
- Original article
- Not to republish article in other blogs
- detailed writing
- Number of backlinks to attach etc

• GUEST POST IN CLOSELY RELATED TOPICS IN YOUR BLOG

This is indeed a very important factor to consider when writing a guest post as it helps to increase your blog traffic. As you write on closely related topics in your blog, it will make your backlinks effective and useful to you because you can easily refer the readers to a related post in your blog and they would always click to read it since it will fasten their understanding of the present post they are reading.

Don't add backlinks of unrelated articles on your blog as it may cause some percentage of bounce rate of the traffic generated by the guest post.

• MAKE A POST THAT WOULD STILL BE USEFUL EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS

Did I just say a post that will still be useful even after ten years? Yes I did, even one that can last for twenty years is better. Why you write an article that will have value for long period of time is to ensure continual traffic from that blog to your blog.

When you write a guest post on an event that is coming up soon or any other thing that wouldn't last for years then your guest post is bound to generating little traffic to your blog because nobody would want to be reading an article about something that has passed.

But assuming you write an article about web design or App development, then you are sure of quality and continual traffic to your blog for a long period of time from the post because there would always be new people coming into web design and app development.

• REPLY ALL COMMENTS IN YOUR GUEST POST

Your work in your guest post don't just end by writing and submitting your post to a blog for publishing. You still have to stick by and reply all comments and questions put forward by the readers of your post in that blog.

By doing this you make them believe and trust in you and they would want to follow your blog since you always direct them well.

• WRITE PROBLEM SOLVING ARTICLES

Whenever you are writing any article for publishing, make sure such post will add value to your readers. Once one reads your guest post and finds out that your post has no value to add to them or has no solution to the problem its supposed to solve, they would not click on your backlinks and would not even want to follow your blog since he/she will feel your blog has no value to add to them

• BACKLINKS AND ARTHOUR BIOGRAPHY

Whenever you are writing a guest post, you are always given a little space to write about your biography and the link to your blog either at the end or at the beginning of the post . This helps readers to follow you up after reading your article and can easily get to you if the need arise through your blog link.

Also you are allowed to add some number of backlinks to your blog in the post. This depends on the blog you are writing to. Some would give you a chance of two to three backlinks, some would give up to four or five while some might even say just 1 backlink. So it really depend on the blog administrator(s) choice.
