30 ways to promote your blog posts
TRANSCRIPT
You spent hours researching, writing, finding
graphics and uploading your blog posts, but your
work isn’t done yet. To get the most out of each
blog post, you need to promote it as much as you
can.
Here are 30 ways you can promote each
blog post, most of which are FREE.
With a little work and planning, you’ll get the
most leverage out of each post.
2. Twitter
Schedule it on Twitter 2-3 times per day for
the next 14 days (post a few variations of
the title).
3. Pinterest
Create a board specifically for all your blog
posts and pin each post to it. If you have
different blog post categories, create a board
for each category.
6. Instagram
Create an eye-catching image for your blog
post and share it with your Instagram
followers (and make sure to use relevant
#hashtags).
15. RSS Feed
Add an RSS fee to automatically notify all
those who sign up to receive your latest blog
posts.
17. Guest post
Submit it as a guest post on other relevant
blogs (re-write it to make sure it’s relevant to
their audience).
23. DemandStudios.com
Share your how-to articles and even video
posts across their many distribution
channels.
24. Amazon.com
Submit your blog to
https://kindlepublishing.amazon.com/gp/ven
dor and you’ll even get paid when Kindle
owners read it.
26. Taboola.com
They deliver your content to top sites like
USA Today, The Weather Channel, Fox
Sports and Daily Mail and more!
28. Business2Community.com
Become and expert contributor and
syndicate your relevant posts to their site.
30. SlideShare.net

this one) and publish it on Slideshare.
A FEW MORE TIPS
Don’t pretend to be someone you’re not.
Write in your own voice and be authentic.
There’s only one YOU.
A FEW MORE TIPS
If you want to gain more readers, be
consistent with your blogging efforts, even if
that means you blog less frequently. Pick a
frequency – daily, weekly, monthly, etc. –
and stick with it.
A FEW MORE TIPS
Create visually appealing images with each
blog post. Make them relevant and original
(don’t steal other people’s photos).
A FEW MORE TIPS
Building readership takes time. The adage “if
you build it, they will come” doesn’t work.
Instead, think “if you promote/market it, they
will come.”
REMEMBER
QUALITY has more impact than QUANTITY,
so make it a priority to create great content
FIRST.
