How Struggling Bloggers Can Boost Their Traffic Despite Having No Connections by jayjay5oxide(m): 6:39pm On May 02, 2017
Are you feeling horrible to start blogging because you feel you have no connections and zero background status?

You see how established or connected pro bloggers flaunts their intimidating profiles with huge networks and feel like
“How in this faculty am I ever going to get there and become like them?!”

It can feel as frustrating as heeeyyy!! when you feel like an outsider or a simple learner. Or when you feel like nobody on earth knows about you, your blog, and your message. You just keep spiting nonsense!!lol...

Frankly speaking, at some points It feels like you’re writing a cyber notes as a newbie; I mean, who in this world knows about your blog or virgin website? And how the hell possible will people ever find out about it and drop interesting comments?

Before you get too worked up, take a deep breath.Grab a cup of tea or star beer and Relax. I have a remedy for you. This remedy will help you increase your blog traffic despite having zero connections.

How do you build connections to increase your blog traffic as a new blogger from nowhere without a background?
1 to 1 mapping.
Making friends with fellow minded people, like 1 to 1 helps build strong/electrostatic bonds. Good friends promote you to their networks. This proportionally increases your blog traffic quite quickly compared to other new bloggers who try to gamble diverse systems to drive traffic to their blogs.While they foolishly try to manipulate Google or social media networks you’re making friends with 1 or 5 or 10 or 20 bloggers daily. Interesting friends, these set of people become, as you comment on their blogs and promote their blog posts via social media.

Good friends do the same for you. 1 seemingly or directly Retweet here. 1 Facebook Share there. An interview. A feature. Appearing on someone’s podcast as a guest. All these sweet friendly benefits increase your traffic margin. However,doing the connection promo is so vital that I need to mention it again.

Must Read:How To Generate Traffic With Forum Marketing
All connections must be built:
1 to 1.
Practically, 1 to many will not work. Which means, not by engaging in a funny system to gain 50,000 Twitter followers (also known as “numbers on a screen”) so you can tweet your blog out to these 50,000 followers, believing you can get 5,000 or 20,000 blog visits from these 30,000 followers (most likely bought) because you ain’t getting jack squat from numbers on a screen.

Numbers on a screen are inanimate. This is why taking the 1 to many approach of trying to build traffic as a newbie is foolish. And quite futile.

Numbers never respond to your blog, to your calls to action or to anything you do online.
People do.
Friends respond.
Good friends REALLY respond favorably.
And you make good friends one connection at a time. One to one.

Places to Build 1 to 1 Connections
Think for once as a new blogger. Since you are just starting to build your online presence.

Let me air my opinion to you bloggers. To start with let me enlighten you cos I know of a site selling traffic tailored down to your project and it works real good cos they make them stick with you unless you have boring contents but let's not focus on that. There is what we call traffic conversion from inorganic.to organic and this is converting payed traffic.to.your own traffic which can.only be.done.with.a.very rich content. Nigerian wants gossips and informations at all cost however no one wants to read the same news over and over again. This is the case of Nigerian bloggers copying topics to their blog page which will end up frustrating you. sharing your blog links on other sites like nairaland, and other sites, all this might not move your blog.an inch. Have you ever sit down to think about those blog sites you want yours to trend like? They started when there was less competition plus they were little in number to cover the stories circulating. Why not go back to the basic by sharing uncommon stories on your blog. Look for.your own content, eye witness occurrences from friends and family, be out going with your camera ready and keep your eyes on every details. You can start by inputting 10 personal post plus the copy and paste thing, sure your crowd will stick to you. That's my opinion tho. Sorry.for.the.long epistle

Facebook is not bad to gain followers which is inorganic but.trust me 5 might.not visit or.read your post out of 100. Buy a naija based traffic and feed them rich content in a matter of one week and they are all yours.

Someone already mentioned the design, your topics are.good ones however you need to pay more attention while creating your topics. Look at other blogs with good traffic and they are growing.stronger daily, they deal mostly with controversies mixing it with educational topics. An average Nigerian want to laugh or smile on a blog because blog means gossip to most of them. Your site looks.more of school to me.

start by buying a custom domain name. one thing i learnt about blogging is if you want to go far, you have to be willing to invest both money and time in it. dont rush, take one step at a time and things will fall in place.

Forget all those stuffs, there are software joor.

If you guys dont mind i can begin to share some, these software works, i can tell you, if of course you use them well. You can build back links and even drive traffic legally. something like a churn and burn SEO stuffs.

Interested person just quote me. I will drop them soon on this forum.
