One of the things that all of us bloggers want to know is how to get more traffic to our blogs.Something that is still working okay for my celebrity blogs is Zimbio.
Actually I feel a little guilty as I've virtually done very little, okay hardly anything, but they send me regular referrals.
How many?
As you can probably just see from the above stats, I've had 355 referrals in the last seven days, that's an average of 50.7 per day (see also yellow section in pie chart, percentage of all visits). So it's a reasonable amount, not massive, but a useful contribution.
Plus the good thing is that the referrals are relevant to the niche. This, of course, means that visitors might just find something to click on which will make me money.
Now I'll say straight away that Zimbio doesn't seem to work for all blogs. It doesn't help with Mikes Money Making Mission for example but there again, as I have said, I have virtually put no effort into the program to make it work. Maybe if I devoted some time on their site it might work for MMMM as well. I can't really say for definite.
I guess though that Zimbio is worth a try as it costs nothing.
How can I promote my blog on Zimbio?
In their words:
Add your blog URL to your profile so you can import your articles and post them to any wikizine. Each post will include a link back to your site. Even better, select "Promote My Blog" and we'll automatically post your articles to related wikizines.All I've done is: (1) Join (2) Entered my URL's (3) Used the automatic option so they post my posts to relevant wikizines ... and that's it.
Now like most social style websites I'm sure that better results can be obtained by interacting with other members and joining in fully.
No promises that it will work for you but, as you've seen by my stats, it's done okay for a couple of my blogs.
If you've got the time give it a try.
Good luck,
Mike.
