I recently saw this great post on one of my favorite blogs, Proper Course. This blog on sailing is run by a veteran blogger, Tillerman, one of the leading (if not the leading) bloggers on this sport/activity/hobby/lifestyle. Tillerman recently was asked to participate in a discussion on how to increase the popularity and traffic to a blog. He posted snippets from over 20+ active bloggers on what works.
In short, it’s about “the community stupid!” It’s about commenting on other people’s blogs, putting up stuff that fosters discussion, posting frequently, extending out to other communities where there are other people that share the same interests. Above all – It’s about sharing.
In the words of zen, another sailing blogger:
“Bloggers write to share, not reward. Most times they do not even get comments.”
