I'm sure every blogger reading this isn't seeing it for the first time. Blogging is not as profitable as before, not everyone can be Linda ikeji



Blogging is time intensive and time is money, if your blog is more than a year old, and you've given it your best, but still struggling with traffic the wise thing is to quit and do something better with all that time

To whom it may concern

One of the biggest challenges of blogging is getting traffic, but beyond that, once you have traffic, you need to figure out how to keep people actually on your blog so that they read more, view more ads, and potentially, buy something.

It's one thing to link to a post on Twitter or Facebook and get them to read it, but it's another thing entirely to get them to stay there and read more, or even subscribe. But that's the challenge I want to tackle today because I don't think that many bloggers handle this issue well and because I want to help you become the best blogger you can be.



1. Put More Content on the Homepage

Though many blog templates provide the option to list more than one post on the homepage, many of them try to squeeze full-length posts rather than using excerpts, which means your reader will have to scroll through entire posts before finding something that interests them.

The best way to solve this problem is by putting as many posts onto a page as you can, within reason. Limit your home page to 300-500 word excerpts, and try to fit at least 5 posts so that people can choose to read what most interests them.

2. Related Posts Widgets

If someone comes to your blog and reads a good post, they are probably in a state of mind in which they want to read more. Why not fulfill that wish by showing them some similar posts that they might be interested in?

There are a variety of plugins that do this by crawling posts for keywords and titles, and it's a great way to get an extra page view out of a visitor.

3. Reduce Distraction

Yes, I know - you want people to see all of your products and fancy widgets, but sometimes these can become so much of a distraction that people can't make a decision and simply click away.

Try to reduce distraction on the page by limiting the content in your sidebar, above and below posts, and in the footer.

4. Reduce Outbound Links

Yes, it's great to link to other blogger and affiliate products, but unless you are pitching something, it's better to lead your readers to your content rather than content outside the page. Limit outbound links to specific pages or special posts if at all possible.

5. Cross-Link Your Posts

You will see many of the professional bloggers do this, which is to link to other posts on your website within your posts. This not only helps SEO on your internal pages, but it keeps people clicking through your website to find other content they might like.

These are the steps that helped me keep my visitors for longer periods, as you can see from the image below, my readers stay on my blog for an average of 18:55 minutes which is very good.


These aren't the only ways to keep people on a page, but they are some of the easiest to implement. Give them a try.

That if you see blogging as a means for generating income. When you take blogging as a hobby, you are still starting after a year.

Abeg what is traffic?

Haa, serious? First, cut off looking like some ugly cheap blogger... Get a custom domain, GoDaddy for as low as $0.99 (N500)... Is that too much for u to look pro?

Secondly, I see your posts make FP most times, so why need more traffic? See how you begging for traffic like the OP kept it in his house? Lol

Get a domain, stick to what you are doing (Nairaland), increase your social media following, get back links...

And you will fly! BUY A DOMAIN

dont criticize anyone.

Nice

Yes I agree with OP. Additionally it's important you blog with passion or at least have a level of expertise and hunger for your chosen niche as this will help you chunking out great contents that your readers would like.


Also, passion, on a long run, this can help keep you in the game (assuming the money isn't forthcoming)


I covered some
great blogging tips over here

Nice write up author.
I have taken a cursory look at bloggers thriving works, but to be honest with you, bloggers in the line of Social events(Gossips,trending lifestyle and celeb news) hold sway than bloggers posting useful articles. Though i stand to be corrected.

Nice one.

fantastic points op.
here are my additions:

1. use hyperlinks more: truth is some posts are more powerful than others on your blog. try as much as you can to tailor your post such that it links to these posts.

2. use more visible fonts: too tiny fonts might give a bad reader experience.

3. avoid grammatical and typographical errors: though inevitable, try as much as you can to mitigate them. a better way to do this is edit your post at least 3 times before pushing the publish bottom. alternatively, reach out to a friend to help review.

I run my travel blog (www.nomadicnegro.com) using these tips.

And where do you think Nairaland pulls news articles from?

Hmmm
