Blog Post Promotion Through New Methods – Wider Reach

What is blog post promotion? Why it is essential? 

A blog post is an intellectual contribution of the writer who offers valuable information to visitors on their search topic.  The valuable information in a blog post will be useless if it can not reach a wider audience and gets their approval and appreciation. How will this well-written article with useful content reach wider visitors and brings more traffic? Unless the article reaches people, people read it, become subscribers and come to the same blog for more information, how can a blog be rated popular? To sum up, a well-written post must reach a wider audience is the real task to decide the authenticity, popularity, and usefulness of the blog to the public. There are many ways to promote blog posts. Few popular traditional ways are a search engine and directories submissions This is most popular even today. The reason is the search engine is from where visitors get the information. Submitting the posts to forums, free and paid advertisements. Blog posts are also sent to known people through emails.

The latest techniques of blog promotion are social media, groups. As technology advances, new ways are into the limelight like converting the blog posts into PDF formats and promoting on document sharing techniques, creating image-based infographics.  Republishing the blog posts on authority sites with a canonical link is another great way reach influencers. 

Blog post promotion is time confusing? How to cope up with it?

Yes. Blog post promotion is time-consuming and more tedious than writing a blog post. But what is the other way out? How do the hell people know that you wrote a great article? How do they know that the content in your article is what they are looking for?

Only if the blog post appears in the first 5 search results of a search engine, it will not even be noticed. But why search engines show your post on the first 5 search results? This is a billion dollar question. It is like a story narrated by my elders some time back?  There was a madman and while treating the doctors suggested to get him married and the madness will be cured. This is a very difficult situation for the parents. Unless he is married his madness will not be cured. Unless the madness is cured he can not get a bride. The blog post promotion resembles the story.

Infographics the new way to get leads, backlinks, and traffic:

I define infographics as information through graphics. Infographics are the latest trendsetter in promoting content through graphical design and charts. Everyone in content marketing realized that visual displays with segregated points with simple templates, a design and data or knowledge intended to present information quickly and clearly, will have more effect on visitors interest. They now choose graphical representation to promote even blog posts with a great template, organized points highlighting their summary of the topic and promoting these designs to the public on the internet to gain more and more visitors. let me first explain the basic difference of infographics and plain image for this post.

infographics

There are many ways to create infographics. You can use a word document, an excel sheet or powerpoint. But just words, graphics will not create an excellent infographic unless it is branded and the information is from authoritative and resourceful sources. Brand the created infographics with your own creation. Get your information from credible sources and cite them at the bottom of your infographic. Brand it: Make sure it’s clear that you or your organization created the infographic or take help of infographic creators.
