Get Kick Ass Traffic with Blogger

Terry wrote a great post about domain registration and how much better it is to start off with a pre-owned domain opposed to registering a brand new one. Not only will you avoid the sandbox, but you’ll have a good chance of getting a good PR for a decent price.

In the meantime however you can kick ass with blogger blogs. Grizzly wrote a top pillar post on let’s make money right now and I’m not going to repeat what he said.

Let me tell you one thing: if you are desperate to make money on the Internet (which applies to around 95 % of you) then you need to go and read Grizzly’s post! And while you are there you also hop over to Vic’s blog and learn what you have been doing wrong all this time.

I blog about the blogger blogs to show you my results since I have taken Grizzly’s golden tips on board and run with it 2.5 days ago.

As Griz suggested I went and registered a blogger blog. I chose a subject that is popular and started of by using the keyword in the blogs URL

It would read like this: http://yourkeyword.blogspot.com

I then set up the blog using one of the pre-fab themes there and also made sure to use the keyword in the description field.

Next I started writing some blog posts using the keyword often but not so much that it looked crappy or couldn’t be read. To date (2.5 days later) I have 10 posts on the blog that are all related to the main keyword I’m targeting.

In the same time frame I’ve had 2,844 unique hits to the blog so far and still counting. If you are not excited by this stat alone, you need to get a reality check!

Since my Writers Manifesto Blog is now around 8 months young and I’m getting 800 unique’s + a day getting 2,844 unique’s in 2.5 days to a brand new blog is just out of this world.

The point of this post is not to brag to you - actually far from it. But it is to show you that it can be done by anybody if you follow the advice given. And I’m telling you right now, I won’t hold your hand doing this either and silly questions on “but how did you do this” will be ignored.

This would only show to me that you didn’t read Grizzly’s post and therefore nothing will change for you.

Money wise I have only made a couple of dollars in that time frame which shows that I need to monetize better. This is probably were I struggle most. I need to learn what works best for my audience and I suspect this is often a hit and miss too.

I’m excited about what happens when we do the right thing and once I manage to make some sales I will be onto a true winner.

Way to go Monika! I’ve been doing this for a while now with free blogs but while I’ve seen some traffic I haven’t had anything like that - you must have hit a very nice keyword indeed!

Hint for anyone who bothers to read the comments: Using a brand name in the keywords narrows down the competition but you still get a lot of monthly searches which means more traffic for you if you on site SEO your blog properly and force it onto page one at Google.

I’ve done this several times now and it just makes me smile when I see a brand new unindexed blog go straight in at Number One above thousands of other sites.

For everyone who don’t read the comments you just missed out on a potential goldmine! Ha!

Hello Terry and Monika,

Boy I am loving Grizzly’s site. Combine Griz, Unleashed Blogger and Courtney Tuttle I have learned a lot in the past few weeks.

Just curious Monika, has most of this traffic been from StumbleUpon? I have just created a new niche blog. It has 175,000 competing pages and 676 searches a day. So far my site is 3 days old. My search engine traffic is coming, but no where close to your numbers. So far I have about 30-40 searches.

Fred: I so agree with you on those 3, they are my hit team bloggers and nothing else really matters.

As for your question, around 67% of my traffic is from the search engines! Only a little is from social media and a few others from referral traffic from other sites.

I’m very happy with this so far since it shows that it can be done regardless of competition. The one thing I have yet to narrow down is monetizing properly but am sure with time and experience it will become second nature.

Even with your 30-40 searches a day, if they are highly targeted, you can make money.

I don’t know who Grizzly is, but I’d like to read the post you’re talking about. Where can I find it?

The link to Grizzly’s post in his blog is right there in this post. Its the blue highlighted piece of text that says “let’s make money right now”

If you don’t know what a link is, I think you may just be in for a few problems…
