Hi Lucywrites,
That's a great question. The best advice I can give is to:
-
Qualify the type of traffic you want. Traffic, in and of itself, is fine. But, traffic that leads to a goal is much better. If you get 1,000 visitors to your blog, what do you want them to do besides reading your content? Sign up for a newsletter? Make a purchase? Join a community? Fund you? Ask yourself: Is my content bringing qualified traffic to me, enabling me to meet my specific goals?
-
Discover the needs and desires of the audience for whom you are writing. What are they interested in? What bothers them? What amuses them? What would make their lives richer, more interesting, more successful, happier?
-
Then, look at your competitors to discover what types of content they have developed to fulfill this audience. Do you see ways you can go one better than your competitors? Is there opportunity they've left on the table? Are you a more interesting writer, more educated, more thorough, more insightful, better at graphics? What can you do that your competitors aren't?
-
Begin to build relationships in your industry/geography. When my favorite bloggers create something really good, I'm almost sure to mention it socially, and I might even include their content in the newsletters I write. When I write something really good, my favorite industry influencers often do the same for me. Figure out who you admire in your industry and be generous in sharing their very best content with your own circle of influence. Over time, perhaps you can get to know your favorite writers, and they, in turn, can get to know you and come to depend on you for quality publication of a certain kind.
Hope these suggestions help!

Hi!
There are a lot of things you can do to increase the number of visits to your blog, the first and most important one is to write high-quality content, as simple as that. Once you have a couple of really good articles that you are proud of, you can start using the social media to move them around.
Other things you can try are: targeting long-tail keywords, guest blogging and email marketing campaigns.
I hope this helps!

References for Healthcare Blog Content?
Hey everyone, We have a couple B2C medical/healthcare clients we produce content for and I was wondering what the industry stance is when it comes to giving references at the end of a blog, assuming there were no statistics or direct quotes used in the content. A lot of our content is written via research on a specific condition/treatment and doesn't really dive deep into specific medical nuances. Things like risks, recovery timelines, questions to ask, etc. are written about mostly. Still, should we be providing general references at the end of blogs to sites like WebMD, Medscape, etc. Thanks for any input!

Locating Guest Blogging Niches
Hey Folks, Does anybody have advice on tools I could use to locate blogs on specific topics? My plan is to approach the webmasters and offer guest blogging services. I know I could just do a google search for something like "KEYWORD blogs" but I thought I'd see if there is anything more sophisticated out there. Thanks, Rich

For a consumer facing blog, how often do you recommend updating content to develop good rankings? I understand that it's really dependent upon the niche/competition, but what are some best practices? Content is expensive. Thanks

Getting the most out of existing PR
I am currently compiling material for a creative session where I will sit down with our client's PR team and look at ways to maximise SEO value while they do their usual PR work. Apart from obvious link inclusion in the written material (resource box / in-text) what are the other tactics that can be used to help SEO? I am not only thinking about content but also distributiuon and technology / platform as well. My (random) thoughts are around: Talking about specific website locations, features, media Generating curiosity Using existing media contacts and chanels as link opportunities Using interesting and user-friendly yet smantically rich content Use of synonims Referring to related terms and concepts Integrating social media Referring to PR material in blog and social media? (maybe bad idea) Note: I've recently been introduced to platforms such as HARO and MyBlogQuest (by Peter Gregory in this related posthttp://www.seomoz.org/q/are-press-release-sites-useful) and wondering if there is anything else out there that's new and exciting?
