10 Ways To Increase Your Blog’s Pageviews

With Google Adsense or Yahoo Publisher, having people click
onto more pages helps your revenue immensely, but how do you
get them to read more than one page when they visit your
website? Here are a few tips.

1. Create pages within the blog that contain reference material
you refer to often in your posts. These static pages will also
get crawled and indexed by the search engines and as you write
posts about your topics you can refer people to these static
pages as references to what you are posting about.

2. Use articles as static pages. You can reprint articles on
any topic for free by visiting one of the many article
directories like
http://www.articlecontentprovider.com/articlesubmit/ Then refer
people to read the articles that relate to the post you are
making. You could even add one article as a new page every time
you make a post.

3. Refer to other posts you have made on your blog or on
another one of your blogs while posting. This gets the reader
to click over to previous posts. You can even decide your posts
by browsing previous posts and deciding which one to follow up
on. Those archives are not to be lost and forgotten. Its great
material, (you wrote it right?), so use it.

4. Create a page that links to your favorite posts that are
timeless. You browse your old posts, find posts that you want
readers to find easily, then build a links page with those
posts directly linked. Then add a link to that page from your
front page. Call it favorite posts or whatever and you will
benefit by those that click through and follow those links.

5. I've posted here before about the "more" tag. You write your
post as normal, then decide where you want to break the post up
onto a new page. You put the more tag in and readers have to
click to a new page to read the rest of the story.

6. Write once per week special projects. These are a series of
articles on a particular topic. You will be offering it once
per week giving readers a week to comment on it, then have them
hanging on for next weeks special post in the series. Each time
add links to previous posts in that series.

7. Using your content from your other websites or blogs is also
a great way to get more pageviews for all of them. Use the
target new tag and refer to material on your other blogs and
websites. It will open a new window leaving the current blog
open while they visit your other website or blog. You can
quickly double up your pageviews while also introducing your
readers to your other websites and blogs.

8. Make a list of 10 previous posts and the links to those
posts. Make a post in your blog about 10 things you want your
readers to know and read in case they have not done so before.
At your suggestion they will at least go see if they have read
those posts before, increasing your pageviews once again plus
bringing old material to new readers. That also lets them know
they should browse the archives for things they have missed.

9. Using that same list of 10 posts or a new one, visit other
blogs on your topic. Find posts that talk about something
similar to one of those 10 posts, then instead of adding a link
in your signature to the home page, make a comment there and
refer to the post that is similar and that contains helpful
information to that blogger and their readers. You will also be
increasing your link popularity while doing this. Do not spam
the link. Make sure it actually contains useful information.
Don’t be trolls or spammers and you will end up with new
readers and more page views for your blog.

10. Do not stop being creative. Use the tips in this article,
plus invent some of your own ways to interlink your blogposts
together. Create pages. Don't just post and forget. That
content is valuable, use it. Do not make people search your
blog. They are lazy and busy. Bring it to them. That is just
good customer service.

I hope this article helps you learn there is more to blogging
than just writing a post once in awhile or even daily. If you
employ the tips I just gave you into your blog I guarantee you
will increase your pageviews which in turn will increase your
revenue if using an ad program in your blog.
