How do bloggers build such blogs as http://tmore1.blogspot.com/
that become successful? or is that just exaggerated?
Such Blogs?
Blogs work.
They're designed to serve a couple of critical purposes. First, a blog is an easy way to upload green content. Second, it produces user-generated content - free. Third, if you maintain an interactive blog, you'll start to see the same posters each week. You're building a site community.
So, in addition to posting regularly, your blog posts should be:
- provocative. Express an opinion and let the thread grow on its own.
- provide posts for all levels of reader expertise so there's something for everyone.
- call your regular posters by name. Hey, we're all family here.
- stay on topic.
- check for accuracy.
- block the whack jobs who just gum up the blog with rants and screeds. Of course, this kind of post does generate interest, but it's like watching a car wreck - you don't want to but you just have to look.
A successful blog doesn't just post often. It posts quality, fresh opinions that encourage discussion among those return visitors.
And that's what you want. Visitors who keep returning and spending to buy your products or services.
Hey, good luck with you're blog. They're fun.
Best,

Reply:Hi tmore,
Most blogs that are successful get traffic that is built up over time. The key is to keep on adding posts to your blog and then you start to get search engine listings and loads more traffic.
Also i notice on the example blog you have there that they are using feed burner and a couple of free ads ons that allow people to keep on coming back to your blog by RSS feeds or to bookmark the blog to social bookmarking sites so this can helps as other people spread the word for you.
You can also get more traffic by setting up a wordpress blog as this has loads more add ons.
But the golden rule is to keep posting and you will get traffic depending on the subject!
Hope this helps!
