Email #11: Traffic Time!

Dear <firstname> ,

If you're still relatively new online, you
may not be familiar with Internet terms 
but one that you need to know is Traffic.

It basically refers to the hordes of visitors 
that come to your site to see what you 
have to offer in terms of content, maybe
even freebies.

Here are numerous ways you could implement 
to make your blog a highly popular and heavily
trafficked one:

-Good Content.

Don’t just regurgitate what you see elsewhere. 
Provide your own unique ideas.

Update your blog daily.  This is very important in
the beginning.  Later you can cut back to several 
times per week, but you need to post every day 
until your traffic snowball has started to build.

-Clean and Easy-To-Read Design

Watch out for your colors.  Make sure the text is 
easy to read.  Black or dark text on a white or very
 light background is easiest to read.

The design should look attractive.  It doesn’t have 
to be a custom design.  There are a lot of free 
templates/themes available.  Just pick one that looks
nice and not too confusing.

-No Ads

In the beginning, it is best not to have any ads on your blog. 
Wait until you have a good amount of traffic.  If your traffic
is low, you will not make much money on ads anyway. It 
is a lot easier for people to link to your blog when it is not 
covered in ads. 

To your blogging profits,

Your Name
