Blog what is popular to have traffic

My previous post I said - Blog only what you know.

I stand with that statement,  and I still believe that is true.  You should blog only what you know.  That is why if you want to blog about something else, like things that are popular.  Learn what you can about them before you start posting.  Again readers will know if you are just winging it, and if they sense that you do not know what you are talking about they will drop your blog like a hot potato.

Learning new things is not that bad, it widens your knowledge and gives you a variety on what to blog.

So, why does blogging about popular things increases your chances for larger traffic.  Well popularity is directly proportional to followers, the more popular one thing is more followers it has.  It gives you a bigger target audience.

As I pointed out before in my other posts if you do decide to make money on your blog, what you need is traffic.  Making money out of your blog is a numbers game.  Just imagine how many people are interested in reading about Robert Pattison of Twilight(Well not me, but there are millions out there who would) than writing about your collection of bubble gum wrappers.

Writing something about popular events, things and people increases the chances of internet users stumbling about your blog in search engines like Google.  Though I still emphasize learning as much as you can about a certain topic before you start posting about them.  Your goal is not to have someone visit your site once but have a regular reader.

Promote blog to increase traffic

Do you know the addage -"Build it and they will come!" That's not true in blogging, don't expect people to read your blog just because it is there. If you want people to notice that your blog is there try promoting it, there are a lot of ways that you can do this. Ask your friends or family personally to read what you've written, make sure that they could get something out of it, not just your random rants. I guess you could use that Journalism motto - "Educates, informs and entertain." Because there's really no point if those three are not present in your blog. You could also promote it in your social networking site, if you have myspace, facebook, friendster, etc... tell your friends there that you have started a blog and let them read it and ask what they think about it. If you have twitter, the same thing just copy your blogs URL and tweet it and ask people who might be interested in reading your posts. There are a lot of ways for you to choose from on how to attract people to your blogs, all you need is to be creative. So Build it, Promote it and they will come! -access out, God speed!
