Don’t Discount Traffic From Blogs
By Anna Johnson on September 15th, 2009While the media – and, in particular the Internet marketing media – is ablaze with talk of how to get traffic from Twitter and Facebook, Web Pro News’ Chris Crum reminds us to remember the power of the humble blog.
Referring to a website called Alice.com, Chris Crum says that, according to Compete, the site gets 387,000 unique visitors, 18 percent of which comes from Blogger.com
Perhaps if you look at your site traffic you might see that a significant chunk of it comes from blogs too. And if not… why not? As Chris Crum suggests, give bloggers something to talk about, and they’ll start sending traffic your way.
Hmmm… I guess that’s what I’m doing right now…
