Blog Popularity

WordPress helps with your blog's popularity by automatically "pinging" new content to the public, but there are other steps you can take.

* Social bookmarking is one of the more viral ways to let others know what you are writing about.

Add a Social Bookmarking plugin, like OnlyWire, to your site so visitors can recommend posts they like to their favorite bookmark locations.

OnlyWire can also automatically submit your posts to social networks that you are subscribed to.

* Use a Twitter plugin like Twitter Post which will automatically send new content from your blog to your Twitter account.

* Make use of free resources such as FreeViral.com where you can rotate your site through thousands of viewers... at no cost to you.

* Place a link to your blog in email and forum signatures.

* Join, and become proactive in network groups like Orange Leads

* List your blog with Blog Catalog

* Submit your articles to Ezine Articles

These are just a few ways to let people know you have a blog.
