Blogging and Traffic…
One of the biggest struggles of being a blogger is getting traffic. We all want people to read what we write. If noone else read it, would it be worth the time?
Of course, one of the best ways to get yourself alot of traffic is to get posted at Digg. But what is the best way to do that? How do you get the most traffic out of your Digg submissions? Matt @ Matt’s Projects E-Network posted a list of 9 digg tips entitled, ‘How to Get Promoted at digg.com‘.
Now, I have made some previous attempts at blogging on some of my other sites, but I always gave up after a couple of months, due to no traffic. Now that I’ve read this article, I think I know how to get some traffic. I intend to keep the quality as good as ever, and provide useful, informative posts, the same as I have always done. But now I have the tools to help get my blog listed in the places where people can find it easily, to get what help they need.
That’s what blogging’s about, isn’t it? Helping people to find the information they need when they need it. Or, perhaps, give them a bit of an interesting story.

Well.. I write partly for that reason but moreso because I’m interested or even passionate about something. I don’t give a crap whether other people are interested or not. It’s nice, but it doesn’t make or break me. My intention is to chronicle what I’m doing for future reference and if people like what I say.. great. If not, no biggie– I still have the journey carved into digital stone. I think if you write for the purpose of providing information, you have to go out searching for things to write about .. whereas if you already have something you’re interested about, it comes to you and you might research it a bit. That’s just my two cents though.
