Hey

I need your suggestion on promotion of my personal blog which is related to marketing. This is what I have in my Mind:

Blog Commenting
Forums
Guest Blogging
Blogrolls

Would you like to add more??

So spamming, spamming, spamming and more spamming then.

And of course. ...



Do you not see the irony in you asking on how to market your blog about marketing?????

He's probably just done a blog entry quoting your first reply verbatim and then telling both his readers that it's great content.

technorati still the best

I would like to suggest you to join with "Askville" and getb some attractive readers from there.

Bookmarking and forum posting is best technique of promoting a blog.

The best way is providing high quality contents, blogs need something special, because there so many blogs out there, and the easiest way to make your blogs special is create original contents. As to SEO, you can join blog communities and exchange links with other blogs.

concentrate on your blog contents & make it search engine friendly. Your can be on top if your are top on search.

There are some more ways to promote your personal blog like article marketing,social bookmarking,press release,social media marketing etc.

this is interesting..

Social Bookmarking websites are helpful in blog promotion.

Personally I believe that blogroll links are the best to get more traffic but primarily your content needs to be of top quality

Marketing blogs are a very high saturated market (especially if you lump in Make Money Online blogs as well)

Unless you are actually doing very interesting stuff with marketing or earning money online etc. then you need to ask yourself whether or not anyone will even care to read your blog.

I used to have a blog back in 2007 where I talked about making money online but like a noob I wasn't even making $1,000 a month at the time so as you'd expect I had trouble getting any readers.

Flash forward 4 years and I'm not earning six figures a year online after getting fired from my job in October 09 and am doing this stuff for a living so the blog I have now in that space does pretty well with nearly 6k RSS readers.

The point I'm trying to get across is that unless you're an expert in your field it's difficult to add anything else to the conversation other than noise.

social networking , and social bookmarking .

Having an interesting content of your blog which stirs up reader's interest will be a good way of promoting your blog.
But the question is How to write an interesting content?
What do reader's want?

submit your blogs on blogging networks such as blog catalog, spicypage, entrecard and more...

Explore in Blogger Communities and gain knowledge.

i so agree with this one.. expertise is still the best weapon in a conversation..
