Rice Blogger

I think everyone in the blogging community is finding for ways and idea to write the few great post I have mentioned in my previous post. I am also doing the same as much as all bloggers out there are trying to do. There are few great places whereby you could look for an answer or look for inspiration to write about a topic.

Digg
If your post is good, you will be digg (this is a easier way of thinking). Therefore, you should take a look at the method a blog post/article is written. Especially those on the front page of various category. This would only generate short term traffic, but you should know that it also provide you a link back to your homepage. If you are able to convert like 1% of the traffic to subscribe to your rss feeds or bookmark your blog to be return in the future, you are doing great.

Of course there is other website like Reddit, Propeller, Delicious and much more.

Forums
I tend to visit DigitalPoint to know what are people looking at. It is base on the simple supply and demand theory, if there is demand for certain knowledge and you could supply, you will get some traffic. There are a lot of great forums depending on what topic you are writing about. If you are blogging about parenting, you could visit some parenting forum to know what are others interested at.

RSS Feeds
This is my Google Reader or your Feed reader. It is very much advisable to keep track of those who are doing well. There must be certain things that they have done correctly to get a great deal of visitors. You could also visit their archive to see how they continuously able to keep their visitor coming back and why they are gaining visitor throughout time.

Ebook/Book/Reading
I know most of you out there may not be an expert at what you are blogging about. I myself is learning about blogging each day. This is why I blog, so that I can keep track of what I have learn and share with others. Updating yourself with the correct knowledge will give you an upperhand compare to other bloggers, as you will be able to write better and more confidently.

Be Creative
Being first to write about certain information will always give you a competitive edge in terms of readership and of course search engine ranking. Therefore those blogger that knows how to write creatively, not necessary writing from their own knowledge, but they could also compile all necessary useful information around the web as a one-stop information about a particular topic.
