Another great way to promote your blog is to reach out to other bloggers in your niche and see if they would be interested in guest posting on your blog or featuring your blog on their website. This is a great way to get your blog noticed by people in your industry.

Besides the usual Reddit, Twitter, Facebook etc. I started using Flipboard recently, it’s a really very important resource for bloggers. Follow these steps:

  • Share every article you create on Flipboard and follow others.
  • Ask others to share your content, as even 1 or 2 “flips” from the right person can make a difference.
  • Apply for a publisher account on Flipboard to expand your reach.

Most of the time, I choose local category businesses that are easy to rank and get the targeted audience. Currently, I am working on sash window restoration project and targeting the UK audience by creating service based pages. The other strategy is sharing content on social media and creating videos that will help the audience. As you know content is king so mainly we are focusing on content and provide more and more unique content. :innocent:

Never even thought about answering questions on Quora, would I do this by shamelessly plugging my blog post to answer my question or just having it as a link on my account?
Also are quora links nofollow?

Medium’s import feature works well, plus they pay you for views. It adds a “originally published at website dot com” source link to the bottom of the article, which directs traffic to your website.

Hello! You can also promote your blog through:

  1. Email Marketing to grow your contact list

  2. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and other social media platforms to grow your engagements

  3. Promoting on YouTube

  4. Inviting/paying influencers to feature your blog/website

Good Luck! :smiling_face:

I haven’t been able to make Flipboard work for me. Granted, I have a lot of trouble finding others in my niche… There is not a lot of menswear content on flipboard, most of it comes from big publications (GQ, Esquire, Gear Patrol, Robb Report, etc.) and not human people who flip others’ content, and most of it is very bad (“here are 172 suits every man needs!”)

Medium’s import feature works terribly for me. I can kind of get it to work with RSS – the main problem becomes galleries, which all break out into separate photos in a row, and image captions, which all just get converted to regular text…

But the other problem is that they don’t show my articles to anybody there, and I’m under 100 followers, so I’m not eligible to get paid anyway. I left a lot of comments trying to find an audience there, I got fans on my comments, but the number of people clicking or reading my articles, even on medium, is pretty negligible.
