Yes sure... I post health articles 3 times a week, And I promote my blog in WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook. Sometimes I use nairaland.
The main story is that I publicize one post in two days. For example If I post on Monday, I will published it on Facebook to some if my friends, on Twitter with my personal Acct and WhatsApp too, Then I can get like 135 page views
Then on Tuesday I will publicize it again, to the rest of my friends on Facebook and on Twitter with my blog's Acct. Then I may have like 150 page views. On Wednesday the same thing. I hope this helps.

Feel free to Check out my blog and tell me what you think

Oga,

Great job with your posts, especially as it focuses on health but try to tone down on the colour. It seems too bright but you can here other people's views though and weigh your options.

Chairman,

You are doing well, but you need to be patient. Linda Ikeji's blog is popular because she was patient.

Also, though your blog needs to be attractive but truth be told, what is paramount is the content. Again, Linda Ikeji's blog is not attractive, in fact it's ugly, especially when she places ads that spread out in small boxes, but guess what, people don't send. What they are interested in is the content.

So to achieve your goal you need to ask yourself these questions:

Are the things I write original, and can people get them somewhere else?

Being able to answer the above question can help you know if your content is a duplication of what others have posted so there will be no point visiting your blog.

And if your posts are original, then, are you using the right tactics to promote your posts

As EntclassBlog suggested, you can comment on posts and possibly add your link to the site. Also your comment has to be constructive to the extent that the reader of your comment may ask,'who is this person sef, I want to know more about him', and eventually click on your link.

Another question is, if you come across your own post, will you want to read it?

In this case titling matters, as well as Search Description. They have to be attractive for whoever comes across them

A few other tips are:

Do you use hash tags when you share your posts?

Try to add images that represent your posts. E.g EntclassBlog does it and kudos to him because the things he posts are always what people are searching for, though some times against the laws, lool

Hence, you should ask yourself, are your posts what people are searching for?

This will guide you on what to post

Lastly, always share your post, publicly, on google plus. Most people don't know but google plus is a free opportunity for ads, when used well enough, such that posts you have shared via google plus are seen when people are searching for similar things in google search engine. Hence, hash tags are key

If you want to know more on google plus you can check out this post via the link below

Hope this helps you

Good day guys. I created a blog co-owned by my tight friend and I approximately a month ago. But we are struggling with pageviews. No, we dont have Adsense yet but we have got quality and self-written articles there. Only receiving like 40 views approximately. Each day we have like 150 average pageviews but we feel its not enough for our content. You cant be spending time researching and getting only 40 views,,, its painful and discouraging. I have read up a lot on driving traffic but i still want quality ideas from Nairalanders who know how the Nigerian way goes... We have tried every possible way. Facebook, twitter, emails, BBM and i just even opened a Linkedin acct a few minutes ago just to help traffic. i have spent a lot of data on trying to get traffic and I wouldnt like my efforts to go in vain. My blog is http://www.TheMchub.com

I would prefer getting ideas that'll make me work both hard and smart if you get what i mean. Thank you in advance

I understand. All this is with time, When I started in December, I'll post my articles on Nairaland. After about 1 hour of pasting it on nairaland, I'll search for the title in Google, I'll even add my website too. for where! Google Will just display my post in Nairaland for me.

BTW, Most of my posts made front page and were copied my many lazy bloggers everywhere. I won't see my original write up even if I add my full website to the search engine. I begged them to leave my link, some did some didn't. You can imagine, even naijaloaded copied my work.

Later on, after about a month of consistent posting, I was going through my Google analytics app, I saw search queries on what I wrote. People that searched about things related to my posts were referred to my blog, not Nairaland sef.

All this long story is for to know that, SEO doesn't mean WordPress or blogger. it depends on
How well you optimize your site, And how great your content. And what I recently discovered, BACKLINKS and Source, If a singke site can point to ur site as the source then Google will know.

Finally,If you want to change it's alright. I trust your decision. but the only the reason that will make me leave blogger to WordPress is because of the easy comment system.

Thanks a lot for the insight bro. Google sef ya weyrey oh. Lool. Those naijaloaded guys are annoying. I swear. A man with about 4 mods who only know how to steal posts without putting the source or even d moniker of the writer. Even wristbangle and tosyne2much said it sef. I pray I get a strong hold in Nigeria sef with this blogging ish. I'll massively speak against them. Seun should have done something about this though.

You get patience though. Lool. The main reason m scared of posting my topics here with backlinks is the plagiarism thing. I hate the thing gan oo... I could be possessive at times sha cheesy I usually write in the night and the thought of going through all that stress for someone to copy and paste without putting the source is very annoying

Besides, are the backlinks thing very effective? Because me ehn, if i read something on somewhere like nairaland, I don't click on the source at all. I just pass by grin Judging from my actions though, am inclined to think very few people click on the source or backlinks

Don't worry, It will be fine, Just keep being original.
Anywhere you visit any site just try to comment write something catchy and leave a link to your blog, It will improve your Alexa rank too.
