Exclamation 7 Super-Effective Ways to Promote Your Blog
There are many different ways to promote your blog. But in my opinion, these seven are by far the most effective:

1. Get FREE publicity. Write a press release and distribute it through a press release distribution service like PRWeb.com.

2. Write articles, and submit them to The 10 Best Article Directories.

3. Submit your blog to as many of the top blog directories as possible. Here's a great list of blog directories: 20 Essential Blog Directories to Submit Your Blog To

4. Set up a feed on MyYahoo.com, so that your blog gets spidered regularly by Yahoo.

5. Get into Google News. If you write articles and submit them to AmericanChronicle.com, this will get your blog into Google News.

6. Use Ping-0-Matic to ping blog directories. Do this every time you publish: Ping-o-Matic!

7. Set-up an RSS feed URL that people can subscribe to: eBlog Templates How to Setup FeedBurner on Blogger | eBlog Templates

I could go on forever with different things that you can do to promote your blog. But these seven are more than enough to get you started.

Dale as usual a quality post and Ping-0-Matic is used here all the time as you have posted as soon as you have finished writing Ping it.

Nice tips Dale!

If anyone is too busy to do any of this, you can always hire someone else to do it for you. I've had success outsourcing much of my work with getafreelancer.com
