Well, it’s nearly two weeks since I came back from vacation to find my traffic had dropped to zero as a result of not blogging or commenting on other student’s blogs.
I’d set myself a task of making regular blogs and trying to comment on 10 fellow students blogs per day.
Boy, is that time consuming!
I managed the full 10 per day for about 4 days, but that has dropped down to about 5 per day at the moment.
As you can see from my Google Analytics, I have managed to generate traffic, even if it is only an average of 10 visitors a day.
So what have I learnt;-
- Commenting on other people’s blogs is time consuming, but does work.
- Only about a third of the people that I blogged, visited my site and left a comment.
I need to;-
- Comment on more blogs that are not Alex Jeffreys students, as they will already have ‘Alex’s list building book’.
- Create my own product or eBook to entice visitors to join my mailing list.
- Write articles to generate external traffic.
- Start creating YouTube videos
If anyone has any advice, feel free to shout.
Thanks

Hi John
I am blog hopping at the moment as well and it is time consuming, but its worth it in the end

Hi John,
Commenting on blogs is just one piece of a very large puzzle.
It is time consuming but also important in terms of traffic, backlinks and personal branding.
All the stuff you listed will all help get your blog in front of new people – commenting on “industry leader” blogs like Problogger, John Chow, Shoemoney etc will be a great start!

Thanks David,
Glad I’m moving in the right direction.

Commenting do work, but need to keep doing it again and again, otherwise visitors to the other blog won’t go through all the blog page and find your comment.
If you find a better way to do that, please let me know.
Hi Kin,
I’m interested to see how an active spell of 90 days commenting on other blogs affects my traffic.
I’ve been keeping a log of the number of comments I post and receive and will post my findings.
Keep Blogging,
John
