How to Drive Traffic to your Blog cont’d

I am in the process of trying to increase the traffic to my blog. It is frustrating as a beginner to learn that nobody is actually reading what you write.

I have read quite a bit on the Internet and as per my previous blog post, I have already created a Twitter Account and a Facebook Page

The other interesting thing I have read and now have tried, is a press release. There is an interesting article at squidoo.com on this subject.

So I wrote this press release:

““The Great ClickBank Caper” is a Blog that follows a “social-internet-money-making-experiment” to shamelessly try and raise $100,000 through the Internet.

There is much talk and hype on the Internet about making money in various and numerous ways. Affiliate marketing via Clickbank, even Amazon. Adsense with Google. Monetizing of Blogs. The list goes on and on and on.

Clickbankcaper.com will follow the attempt, of its inexperienced Creator, to try to unravel the mysteries, jargon, methodologies and the seeming impossibilities of making money on the Internet. The Blog will openly and honestly attempt to test the sometimes-outrageous claims of “money making”.

This is intended to be a personal journey, which strives for “social-internet-interaction”. It aims to be a learning experience communicated with humour. A social-commentary loaded with fun.

Above all else, it aims to shamelessly raise $100,000.”

There are a couple of Internet Press Release sites that allow you to issue a press release for free:

1. prlog.org
2. sanepr.com

So between Twitter, Facebook and the press release, I hope to increase the traffic to this blog. I will keep you informed as to how this particular experiment has panned out.

Shout if you are listening.
