Can you point out the problem faced by most of the Newbie Bloggers?
Ya, it’s about getting traffic.
Most of the beginner bloggers struggle with traffic. And few of them quit because they don’t get the results.
You need to remember one thing,
At starting days Search Engines not gonna help you. You not gonna ranked on the first page of Google from day one. SEO takes some time to kicks in.
If you are thinking about how much time I need to wait?
I would say at least 6 months.
How I gonna survive till then?
That’s pretty simple:
You need to Promote your content.
Content Promotion is as important as creating quality content. If you are creating quality content but there is no one to read then you are wasting your time and energy.
You need to focus more on promoting your content.
I don’t know, You have heard about The Pareto principle (80/20 rule) or not.
But I know that you need to follow that.
It states that 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.
Here it means,
You need to focus 20% on content creation and 80% on its promotion.
So start promoting your content on Social media right now.
Social media not just only increase your traffic but it also gave a signal to search engines that people are liking your content.
As a result, you will see some increase in your keywords ranking.
