Getting Traffic To A New Blog Day One And Day Two

April 30, 2008

Hi everyone,

Over the past few weeks I’ve been reading forums, blogs, and reviewing what people have asked me via my forum, or email. The basic question that was asked, was, how do I build traffic to my newly installed blog.

So, I figured for the next 28-30 days I’ll create a post of exactly what I have done, how many places I submitted my newly installed blog, what my goals are.

At the end of the case study, I’ll post a link to a file of all the places that I went to that gave me the traffic so you can use these too. :)

Below, is Day 1 of the case study that started yesterday and below that will be Day 2, tomorrow I will post Day 3’s Journal.

I hope this helps all of you and what exactly is involved as in time and effort that needs to be put in. Note: SEO Website Builder Pro will do most of this automatically for you when I finally launch in the coming weeks. :)
