I am not talking about copying others, just getting some inspiration and finding successful methods. Don\u2019t forget to analyze which blogs are getting the most traffic &#8211; SimilarWeb can help you out with that. If a blog is getting a lot of traffic, research what could be the key factors of that.<br><br>You can even analyze the SEO strategy of other websites!&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/neilpatel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Neil Patel<\/a>&nbsp;allows you to do that through his own website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Remember that SEO is important but Content is still the king.<\/strong>&nbsp;No one ever got traffic without doing anything BUT it doesn\u2019t mean that expensive ads will give you what you want.

It\u2019s the best tool to notify people about new articles and plans. Facebook and Instagram can help you grow and receive feedback from your readers directly. Also, you can implement the links from your blog post to Facebook and Instagram to gain more followers there and create a community for them.<br><br>As social media channels (and even effective ones) the personal profiles can be used too. A lot of bloggers have their blogs linked in the \u201cAbout me\u201d section of their Facebook and Instagram profiles. Self-promotion for friends and followers can increase traffic and popularity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create a top-notch design.<\/strong>&nbsp;Even when content is so important, you have to make sure that your visitors can easily read it and find it. The eye-catching design is a must to keep the readers in the blog for more than a few seconds. You can create a design yourself, or you can use existing templates &#8211; WordPress has a lot of them! If you have no idea about the latest trends, give a shot for a minimalistic look. It will make your blog look more professional and easy to navigate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/qph.cf2.quoracdn.net\/main-qimg-0e7a48d13ffbc64fcb056c29215ab104-pjlq\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Congrats! Now your blog is ready to storm the internet. Be sure to keep it updated and it will stay on the successful path. Here Google Analytics and other platforms that help to track your blog growth or plan its future will come in handy.&nbsp;<strong>A goal without a plan is just a wish, so make it real and enjoy the journey!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are some tips for starting a blog? : It &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"What are some tips for starting a blog?\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/what-are-some-tips-for-starting-a-blog\/#more-765\" aria-label=\"More on What are some tips for starting a blog?\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":767,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[675,3],"tags":[676],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/765"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=765"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/765\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":766,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/765\/revisions\/766"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesswithall.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
