The suitable contest for blog?

Question

Hi, i wanna make a contest for my personal blog (free topic). The mission is to get more and more traffic to my blog. Could you suggest the suitable contest for my personal blog?

Answer 1

I would try to get more subscribers first before having a contest. In my experience having a contest does not create more traffic.   More traffic creates more subscribers.  Opt-in autoresponders are a useful tool to get more subscribers.  Try http://www.aweber.com

BTW, you could have put your URL in the question and you would have at least got some people over to your blog.

You can get traffic by trying a free traffic exchange service like TrafficSwarm at http://www.trafficswarm.com/go.cgi?56268...

or WebCentreSurf at http://webcentresurf.com/?27972

Try StumbleUpon at http://www.stumbleupon.com and add your site to your favorites.

You can try article marketing at an article submission service like http://www.ezinearticles.com and link back to your website in the resource box for your articles.

You can also comment on popular blogs like John Chow's or Joel Comm's that allow linkbacks to your URL. Do a Yahoo Search.

Create a video and upload it to YouTube with your URL flashed on the screen. All of these are free.
