Never stop fighting for each pageview

free hosting

If you think that you don’t need to promote yourself after your blog has grown into big one, you are wrong. Promoting yourself not only increases your traffics, but keeps them. Sooner or later your blogs traffic will go down if you stop promoting. Why is that?
That’s because most of your website’s or blog’s readers aren’t permanent, especially if you own a blog. This rule doesn’t work for some websites, most forums etc. but if you own a blog you must promote your self.
Usually the biggest part of your page views isn’t from your permanent readers it’s from people who accidently went to your, page probably directed from somewhere for example Google, other websites or blogs. So if you would stop promoting your self your audience would slowly start decreasing. That would mean taking steps back.
If you own a big blog you need a good hosting, good hosting usually costs. Lots of advertisements cost even more. But if you want to earn you have to invest.
If you think that the most important thing is always to earn more think about this: when your blog is big and known your permanent readers audience will grow fast and you might be able to save money later because you will have amazingly lots of followers. So at first most important thing should be to have as much readers as possible not to earn as much as possible at that moment. That requires a lot of patience.
Also promoting doesn’t always costs you can exchange links with other bloggers if your blog is know you can exchange links with other know bloggers or even charge not so known bloggers for exchanging links. That’s another plus why readers not money should come first to you.
If you also have FaceBook or Twitter connected to your page and you probably do. Don’t let it sleep take care of it. Also remember how you used to celebrate every new comment on your blog? Are you still active enough in your comments?
There always are new bloggers that you can meet. Also there are new bloggers that will compete with you.
Your blog continent should always be targeted, because changing themes would be very risky. It would be like taking steps back. You would need to search for new readers, because your old ones wouldn’t be interested in your blog anymore.
Stopping promoting your page would be same as turning train’s engine off because train already goes fast. It would stop sooner or later eventually.
