by

Recap

As discussed in the video above, you may be able to attract more FREE traffic by giving companies you’ve worked with testimonials that include your name and website address. Most products you purchase have a testimonial section where they list happy customers. Obviously this is used to make us feel more comfortable doing business with this company. But it’s a great way to get free traffic as well if you follow what I’ve described in the video above.

Resources:

Next Steps:

  • Make a list of any products you have purchased recently related or unrelated to your business.
  • Reach out to each company and ask them if they could use a testimonial.
  • Write the testimonial and asks if they would mind including your website as well in it.
  • Once your testimonial is up, reach out to them and encourage them to email their list the testimonial as case study. Or you can tell them to share it on their social media accounts as well.
  • Enjoy the ongoing traffic.

Conclusion

This is a simple technique where everyone wins. Unfortunately its pretty hard to attract the effectiveness especially if they don’t link to your site. But in my experience I’ve had people tell me they visited my site after reading a testimonial on another site. So it does work and it’s FREE ongoing traffic or branding for you.

But they haven’t always been easy to set up. But that has changed especially if you’re using certain WordPress contest plugins. Some of them will allow you to set up a contest that encourages users to share your site to improve their chances of winning your contest.

This can lead to more subscribers and direct traffic to your blog. The great thing about this tactic is it can be used over and over again.

How To Increase Your Blog Traffic – Locking Your Content

by

Recap

As discussed in the video above, you can attract more FREE traffic via social media by locking certain parts of your existing content. The key to this tactic is provide enough useful content within your post that draws your user in. But you want lock sections within your content that may provide additional useful information such as tips, hacks, features, or warnings that tug at your visitors emotional strings. So you must use a fine balance of giving enough of a taste in your content but leaving them wanting more.

This tactic works extremely well with your existing popular posts. But it can be used on all your posts for incremental growth if you want.

Resources:

Next Steps:

  • Review your blog analytics and identify your most popular posts.
  • Re-read each of your posts and decide which part of your content would be good to lock while still providing enough value to entice your audience to act.
  • Download a content locker that encourages viral sharing to view content and lock parts of your popular posts.
  • Repeat this step with additional posts or all posts.
  • Watch your social media following and traffic grow consistently over time.

Conclusion

I know this tip seems pretty easy but it’s very powerful. I assumed than many bloggers are aware of this. But I’m always surprised to see how many blogs lack strong calls to action. So if you knew this already, then that’s great for you. But for those of you that didn’t, you will be happily surprised how applying this increases your conversions relatively quickly.

How To Increase Your Blog Profits – Using CTAs

by

Recap

As discussed in the video above, you need to literally tell people what you want them to do in your blog posts. This is referred to using calls to actions or “CTAs”. You should use them often in your content and blog. Never assume that because you slap on some banners or a few links, that people will click on them. Most of the times your audience is just scanning through the information. So you want to make sure that your “calls to action” are repeated and very prominent as they scan.

Try to use various styling elements like using bold, underline and bright blue links. Don’t just slap on banners and depend on them. Be sure to use text links as well so you can combat the banner blindness we all have.

Resources:

Next Steps:

  • Review your current blog posts or Blog as a whole for call to actions.
  • Update your blog posts or blog to include multiple prominent calls to action.
  • Use text links as your calls to actions. Don’t depend on banners only.
  • Repeat this every time you create a new post.
  • Watch your income grow in time or immediately.

Conclusion

I know this tip seems pretty easy but it’s very powerful. I assumed than many bloggers are aware of this. But I’m always surprised to see how many blogs lack strong calls to action. So if you knew this already, then that’s great for you. But for those of you that didn’t, you will be happily surprised how applying this increases your conversions relatively quickly.

How To Increase Your Blog Profits – Thinking Outside The Box

by

Recap

As stated in the video above, don’t just limit yourself to promoting the obvious companies related to your niche or blog. Look at other companies that may be paying more and can add value to your audience.

For instance let’s say you run a dog blog. Conventional thinking would say promote products like dog collars or dog training books. That would work but they don’t pay all that much.

But using the technique in the video, we could also promote carpet cleaning machines. Pets tend to have accidents and investing in a carpet cleaning machine would be useful over the years. These machines tend to be expensive. So if your visitor happens to buy one as a result of a link on your site, you’d earn a higher commission.

So maximize your income by promoting various type of products even if you don’t initially see the fit. With a little creative thinking you’d be surprised what you can promote.

Resources:

Next Steps:

  • Search through other product categories outside your niche.
  • Compile a list of potential products you can promote into your existing or new content.
  • Review your blog analytics to determine your most popular posts.
  • Edit your top traffic producing posts to include higher paying products outside your niche if it makes sense.
  • Continue to try to incorporate other niche products into future blog posts as it makes sense for your audience.
  • Watch your income grow in time or immediately.

Conclusion

Hopefully after watching this video, you’ve had an ah ha moment.  If not, you probably need to watch the video again or read this article. The great thing about this technique is that it involves the same amount of work. But it can potentially pay you so much work. So apply it right away if you want to boost your income quickly.
