It is meaningless if we write blog everyday but no reader. Promote a blog post is like marketing for your article.

Many Blogger promote their blog in wrong way! See the title “Promote a Blog Post”. Yes, promote a post doesn’t mean to promote your domain name as a whole. Instead should promote “a” post that reader want the most.

8 Ways to Promote a Blog Post

I’m going to summarize what ProBlogger.net propose.

• Link Bait Other Bloggers – Propose an interesting post to other bloggers in that niche. They might write and link to it if it is worth.
• Social Messenging – Twitter, FaceBook messenging is famous and easiest way to share with friends. Don’t hesitate to share specific post that your friends interested to read.
• Social Bookmarking – Easiest way to get notice by others. But not too often, if not people might treat you as spam.
• Internal Links – Link back to previous post that your reader might not notice. It is another efficient way to keep reader stay in the blog longer.
• Newsletter – If you have email newsletter service, send out a list of latest or most popular post to them.
• Comment on other Blogs and Forums – Provide solution in blogs and forums closely related to your post.  Don’t write all, link back to your post.
• Email Signature – Adding links to your latest post in outgoing emails.
