Written by Mavis Nong on Feb 18, 2012 8:22 am

If you are like me, web traffic is a big part of your online business.

Tracking results and checking the latest campaign are a huge part of your daily routine. It can seem like getting to that coveted 1,000 visitors/day mark is a long and hard road, made even longer when you really don’t know what to do to get to that point.

What you need are some good, solid strategies to get your blog in front of new readers – exploding your traffic and building up your audience at the same time…

Below are 17 strategies that will load your blog with visitors.

1. High-quality content. You can’t build a good, targeted audience without quality content. Everything on your site needs to be value packed. Your blog posts, individual pages, articles you write, videos you make, even the comments you write. Quality is king!

2. Syndicate your content. Publishing on your blog is a great first step, but don’t stop there. Put your blog posts to work for you. Submit them to article directories like ezinearticles.com and ideamarketers.com – get the most out of your prized blog posts. Submit them 1 – 2 days after you post them on your blog – make sure they are indexed on your site first before you send them elsewhere.

3. Turn them into short reports. This is a great strategy to again, repurpose your posts or articles – Take a blog post and make a nice cover sheet for it – save it as a PDF. Then take that document and head over to Scribd.com – a document sharing site – and submit it there. Easy way to spread your content over the web. Some others are Yudu.com, Issuu.com and Docstoc.com.

4. Spread the word on Facebook. At any given time, there are millions of users on Facebook – make a fan page and start talking with your fans – they will be receptive to you if you give them value first.

5. Use Twitter. Same idea here as Facebook – Retweet others tweets, follow those who follow you and follow other people in your niche. Add value to the Twitter stream and you will get the kind of targeted traffic you are looking for.

6. Google+. Google+ is rapidly growing in popularity. Taking it to the next level in your business requires active participation in this community, as well as other social networks.

7. Get on LinkedIn. LinkedIn has about 130 million users and is growing by leaps and bounds. LinkedIn is a place for connections, much like Twitter and Facebook. However, it is based on the premise of connecting for professionals. Combined with Twitter, Facebook and Google+ and you have a lucrative social networking arsenal.
