Yaro thanks for the great post, however I must disagree with your tip Nº 2 about submitting your pillar articles to ezine articles, if your blog is new and you are working hard on those pillar articles, you may not want to submit those same articles to ezinearticles or any other article website since they are already established in the seach engines and they could easily outrank you on SERPs as well as getting you penalize for duplicate content.
I think it would be best to write new articles only to submit to those sites such as ezine articles and use the resource box to direct traffic to the pillar articles on your site.
I hope it makes sense.
Regards,
Julie

I started applying the tips and they work! Is completely amazing, i started seeing results by applying them just for one week.

I used not to find what to talk about, but with the pillar approach and small posts talking about other similar sites, I can find more ways to add posts to my blog.

I have one question, is it good to add videos to improve traffic? What do you think about this?

Ray, I'm following Yaro's guidance from tip 7 and commenting on his pillar article!

I must admit that I was inspired by yourself and Michael Fortin to launch my new website www.AmericasIntuitionCoach.com as a blog site because I want to create an intimate connection with people.

Blogging is a new concept to me so I will be tracking your site closely. I subscribed to your feeds. I have a weekly ezine that recently launched called Confessions of a Psychic and my new book is out September 1, 2008. It's called Unleash The Psychic In You. I see you have a Self-Help topics section, perhaps you'll have a read? I'd love to hear your feedback on my book.

Thanks again for inspiring me : )

Joanna

Ray and Yaro,

Thanks for some good tips. I like the idea of the Blog Carnival.

It seems like a simple strategy that you could even do with a group of fellow bloggers. Perhaps once a week everyone mails a link to everyone else on their latest post. The group then posts the list.

Something to think about anyway.

Take care.

Fantastic Advise Yaro. You have offered some great tips on blog success.

And thank you Ray for the email and for focusing on blogs. The success of blogs never cease to amaze (even with the crazy people who said they had their day)!

Blogs are also one of the best entry points for home business newcomers.

Blogs are easy to learn. Free to set up. Stress free and a great way to get on the internet ladder of success.

Great post. Thanks for sharing.

Sincerely,
John Adams

Good advice.

I need to learn more about trackbacks.

Another idea is to link your website, blog, & forum together so that as one grows they all grow.

Also, figure out how to encourage others to do your Internet Marketing for free like SEO & Beyond does with their nearly free viral video websites.

Wow – thanks Yaro and Ray! I started my blog a few months ago and kind of got off track, but now I have a simple, clear plan for really getting it going.

Great post!

I just started copywriting and business blog recently and will be implementing your ideas. I haven't been writing as much as I should (like twice a week so far) but I'll start ramping it up a bit.

Thanks for the post!
