If you have a blog, I’m sure you want to know how to get traffic or visitors to it. This makes sense because you want people to read your blog unless of course if you want to keep your blog private.
In this article, I will show you step-by-step how to get FREE traffic to your blog. Free traffic means you don’t need to pay to get visitors but you need to put in your effort. There is another method called paid traffic where you pay for getting visitors but we’re not discussing this in this article.
Here are the steps to follow to get free traffic to your blog:
1. Writing Articles
Writing articles is a great way to get free traffic. You don’t need to be a professional writer to write a quality article. All you need is just follow a simple formula. What is the formula?

These article directories are high-traffic sites and Google loves them.
2. Create Web 2.0 Sites
In a nutshell, Web 2.0 is a user-generated site. It’s just like a website but it’s free, anybody can create their sites there. There are many Web 2.0 sites available. Personally, I only use 3. Which 3?
Here are the 3 Web 2.0 sites I use:
- Squidoo.com
- HubPages.com
- Weebly.com
Go and create your web pages in these 3 sites and you’ll start getting free traffic to your blog.
3. Make Videos
Make short and interesting videos about the topics that you’re writing about and submit them to YouTube. Interesting videos always get watched on YouTube and you can tell viewers to visit your blog for more information.
4. Use Social Bookmarking Sites
Social Bookmarking sites are basically sites that categorize and store ‘bookmark links’ (links which take one to a specific website or blog). These are very high-traffic sites because there are literally millions of people all over the globe visit these Social Bookmarking sites to look for information. So, if you bookmark your web pages on these sites, you can get lots of free and targeted traffic.
But bookmarking is a very tedious process, you need to log into each of the sites to bookmark your pages… very boring and time-consuming. Fortunately, there is an automation software that lets you bookmark to all the major bookmarking sites in just minutes on autopilot. I use this tool on a daily basis now. You can check out the software here: BookmarkingDemon.
Ok, that’s all you need to do to get flood of free traffic to your blog. Hope you find this article useful.
