Have you ever click onto the first search link thinking it might be your best result answer but it did not turn to be ? Is good content really important for traffic or does a good Spammer increase more traffic ? Who will win ?

As a good blogger, as you think you are, must have gone through a lot of research on how to increase your blog's traffic, and there's lots of them all over the web. Well at least now I've seen one which is good enough for me, concise and precise.

Thanks to the owner of http://wherebloggersandhumansmeet.blogspot.com/, the webmaster allows me to post his tips onto my blog. Below is a quick view on his blog:

20 Uncommon but Effective Ways to Increase Traffic

The uncommon ones are usually ignored because they seem to be ineffective. But after you understand the list below and try them, you will be surprise with the result:

1.0 Create ageless posts. You can post it again with a new look. Great articles are not boring to read again and again.

2.0 Use an intriguing username, but related to your blogging style and content. People will be curious about you and has a higher chance to visit your blog.

3.0 Do not join numerous social bookmarketing sites that you cannot maintain. Chances are you cannot visit them all regularly.

4.0 Create a list of top article directories where you submitted your quality articles. It will not only help you have a high page rank, readers will also be amazed how you did it.

5.0 Post a summary of your previous posts and provide a link to them. It makes you look like a genius.

6.0 Create a follow up post on your previous keyword-rich posts. Remember that keywords are attractive to search engines.

7.0 Post an article about a high quality blog, include the owner’s name and then inform him. He might even thank you by posting a comment.

8.0 Do not create a useless post just to impress your readers that you are blogging regularly. Readers are the best critics.

9.0 Make your group discussion or thread title a question rather than a sentence. Readers are eager to provide the best answer.

10.0 Do not rely too much on free advertising. Spending a bit to promote your blog in huge directories pays off in the long run.
