Increase Traffic to Your Blog by Crediting Your Sources
Would you like to increase traffic to your blog? Why not use the efforts and knowledge of other bloggers to help you do this. But first let me ask, are you still uncomfortable sending your visitors to another bloggers site?
Do you still have that reluctance to reference others as your source of information?
Do you feel that by crediting others for information you use on your own blog that you'll lose credibility with your own readers?
Did you know that by referencing other blog posts as your source of information that you can enhance both your traffic generation efforts and your credibility?
Let's take a look at how:
Generates Additional Traffic
Through the use of a blog trackback system when you reference a post from another blog you automatically notify that blog thru email that they've been referenced on your site. Much like leaving a comment with a link back to your site, the blog trackback linking from your site, creates the same awareness on the other blog. There now exist the opportunity for additional traffic to your blog from that link.
Logically speaking most any blog you have referenced in one of your post probably blogs within a related niche. With this said the more you use trackbacks the greater the exposure your blog will receive within the community further boosting your traffic generation efforts.
Increases Credibility with Readers
Huh? How can referring your own readers to another site for information increase your credibility with them? Won't that lower their regard for you as an authority or prime source of the type of information they seek or you blog about?
The answer here is no. By referring your subscribers elsewhere for good information only reinforces with them your familiarity with the field while also showing a willingness to share credit with others. Make no mistake that you'll still be considered the 'go to guy'
for any information in this field. If you don't have it you'll know where to find it.
It will also reinforce with them that you're providing unrestricted access for them to any information which may help or interest them. Putting your subscribers first is a key to maintaining their loyalty.
Reciprocal Links from Other Blogs
In time blogs that have been referenced by you will take notice and visit your blog. If your content is of interest or value to them, they may return the 'link love' by referencing your site in one of their own post. This can only lead to another increase in traffic for you. If this link sharing continues the opportunity may present itself to work with the other blog owner in some fashion that would be mutually beneficial in the future.
As you see, crediting other's blog posts for their quality content is a great way to increase traffic to your blog. But the other invaluable benefits this technique offers you also can not be ignored or denied.
