Getting spikes is nice but you should sustain them and get some new readers and then your going somwhere.

Sticky blogs….it’s all about the content. Quality over quantity.
Excellent info! I find your blog very helpful and full of useful content.
Thanks, Darren

You should always leave a door open, and remind the reader that something is going on tomorrow, too. Maybe a new, interesting article, a contest or some tips and tricks.

I have just modified my internal links and was able to reduce the bounce rate of visitors who tried to search for my previous post.

I used the archive technology of blogger before but now after reading an html book. I was able to do it myself. And i am gonna read a javascript book so that i can create great plugins and forms.

Internal Link Building within posts can greatly improve the bounce rate or a site or blog. Make sure to use the actual titles as anchors for the links.

Thanks Darren,

Daily updates help, as do getting people to subscribe to feed. When you update daily, the subscribers WILL read it.. we just need to get more people to commit to our blog, in simple terms. ;)

My story is almost similar to the blogger you listed here. The only difference is that my visitor curves does not got that high and fall back. But it’s like Mount Everest and the Himalayan range.

My chart looked similar in the past… I would like to read those 20 tips to learn more about how to combat this.

I think that an important goal of each blogger is to minimize the bouncing rate.

Looking forward to the article. I certainly recognise that shape and realise what I do needs to be a lot stickier – throwing widgets at a site certainly isn’t the answer!

My advice would be forget the traffic, forget networking, forget social bookmarking, forget everything except content!

If you write good content, they will come, and your traffic will increase!

if our blog view as Sticky at some social networking, surely it will drive more traffic to our blog, but the question is How it can be …..? waiting for the next article

Stickiness is so important. It's one of the key factors talked about throughout The Tipping Point and Maki over at Dosh Dosh just talked about it too in terms of how to lower your bounce rate. Really looking forward to reading about improving the stickiness. Thanks Darren.

It looks like my stats at first. I call this a volatility stat. You often find that kind of chart looking at a new IPO, or small cap stock in the stock market.
Then , as your blog keeps on posting quality posts, the volatility quiets down …..and ends up being a smooth straight upwards line

Most Venerable SEO,

Please consider joining my SEO Skills Showdown, which brings together the web’s best SEOs in an attempt to find out who talks the talk and who walks the walks.

The goal is to get 3rd spot or higher on a google search for “google”.

We each put up $100, and the winner walks away with everything. I’m hoping to invite more than 1000 SEOs so the 1337est SEO can walk away with 100K.

If you’re interested, please comment on this post and I will add your name to the roster.

Thanks and have a great day.

Like many, I see a similar issue.

When I link to my soccer blog in soccer forum boards, I get a nice amount of traffic and postivie responses in the forum commets.

But casual readers don’t seem to make the link that there is a steady stream of such articles and they can get them all delivered.

Instead, I get this classic spike-and-valley effect.

Would having a sticky blog be anything like getting me glued to your post and then you leave me hanging, coming back for more (oh, say for tomorrow’s post)? LOL! I look forward to your suggestions.

For me personallly, my graph looks somewhat similar but I find that my blog interaction, readership numbers, and loyalty matters as well. More spikes equals more pageviews and that means more $$$ for ads and revenue but that doesn’t always convert to readership or loyalty.

I’ll be checking in again tomorrow for this one. I know I can do with some help with getting return visitors to my blogs.

Looking forward to make my blog a sticky blog!

A burst of traffic spike is good, but only for a short term happiness :)
