From time to time, people ask me if they should advertise their blog to get traffic. My advice is always ‘No’. If you have a new blog, remember, advertising it is not the way to get traffic. There are some exceptional cases of course. But in most cases, advertising is not a good traffic source for blogs. (Blog plays a different role in advertising. I may discuss this next time.)
So my first step is build a search engine optimized blog, Here is what I do when I start a new blog, especially wrodpress blog:
If you still have question and want to have further understand of how to make money online. Then just to through this article Everything You Need To Know About Make Money Online. This article will teach you step by step to make money online with spend a dime.
Optimiza title, meta tag, url, category and find a decent themes. what’s most important:
1. Write search engine optimized posts
If spend sometime study my blog, you will know how to do this.
Most bloggers simply blog whatever they like to say. You can do that if you are Paris Hilton. If not, you’re not likely to attract people to read what you’re writing.
A ‘purpose-driven’ blogger will do careful keyword research and optimize his article for search engines before posting it to his blog. Almost every blog post is his arrow that aims to shoot down the top position in the search results.

2.Build backlinks
How to build backlinks anyway? Just follw:
The number one rule is build the best blog in your specific niche market and update daily with at least four posts per day. A new blog is capable of generating traffic on its own ONLY IF it’s optimized for search engine. Else, you’ll have to think of ways to drive traffic to the blog and that can be tedious and even frustrating to some.
Choose your topic. Blog about everything or about various stuff won’t interest readers. Narrow your topic. By trying to interest everybody you’ll interest nobody.
3. Post regularly. Well, everybody knows it but not everybody actually writes regularly. There’s more here: if it’s pain for you to write, by writing regularly, you’ll improve your skills and it will become easier and easier to write.
4. “Tell a friend”. Add to your blog tell-a-friend feature to let readers send your posts by email. This feature won’t drive a lot of traffic, but imagine what happens when one reader tells about your blog ten people…
5. Put your blog’s address everywhere: in your email signature, on discussion boards, on your other web sites, on your business card.
6. Comment posts on other blogs. And don’t forget to put a link to yours. But, of course, don’t spam, and remember that if you have nothing to say, say nothing.
7. Quote other bloggers and ping their posts. It’s easy to do with BlogJet: grab the trackback link from blog, click “Properties” tab and paste it to “Pings”.
8. Link to other blogs. But don’t ask for a link back - most bloggers don’t like it. But because bloggers check their hit stats, they can find out about your blog by looking into referrers. Like every curious person, they want to know what’s your blog about and what it have to do with them.
9. Write articles for other web sites. And put a link to your blog.
10. Submit your blog to directories and blog search engines.
11. Use pay-per-click advertisement. If you have spare money, of course. I’ve tried Google AdWords and discovered that it’s better (for me) to advertise single popular and interesting posts instead of my whole blog.
12. Learn what your readers want and give it to them. What are your most popular posts about? What are your most quoted posts about? Find this out and write on this more.
13. Submit your RSS Feed to Feed Directories.

You can use automated or semi-automated software to do this or you can do it manually just like you did with the Blog Directories.

14. Don’t forget about search engine optimization. I don’t encourage you to learn SEO and dig in search engines algorithms, but learn just a few key principles and use them.
15. Do something for other bloggers and blogosphere. Offer your help for free.
16. Never leave short, useless or canned comments like “Nice!”, “Cool!”, “Great Blog!”, etc
17. Actively participate in bloggers community. Join meetings, conferences, exchange emails with other bloggers. Send interesting links to them on the topic of their blogs (again, no spam,
and only if they agree).
18. Focus on the long-term outlook. Don’t expect to get lots of traffic immediately. Get it gradually. Set small goals (for example, “get 500 RSS readers in three months”) and achieve
19.Be active in Forums and use a Forum Signature including a link to your Blog.
20. Stick to it and nvery give up.
