Those will be discussed later. This blog essentially discusses the reasons why your blog isn’t drawing audience and how you can rectify it.
No Comments
When you dedicate a lot of time to your blog, you need comments that will help you understand the needs and wants of your customers/readers. When there are no comments, then that means you have serious issues with your blog. You need to address this issue immediately or else you will find your entire social media marketing campaign, crumble.
Addressing the issue
· Comment on other blogs – Let others know that you are there. Comment on their blog and leave your web link there. Also write meaningful comments that will get them to click through and visit your site.
· Respond – Make sure to capitalize on whichever comment you receive. Ensure to reply on the comments that you get from time to time.
· Controversial topics – OK! This may not be the brightest of ideas but hey! Any publicity is a good publicity!
· Ask questions – Ask questions at the end of the blog that will make your readers comment on it. Readers generally comment on questions or points that they find interesting. So, work accordingly.
