I think the best is to provide free stuff like themes, but people who do it run for large number of posts but for quality! Its hard to find free and nice. Usually later you prefer to by than to download…hope it will change, and will also provide free stuff myself to help beginners on my blog:

Thanks for the great high-level guidance Chris, and the Simplaris Blogcast mention is much appreciated! I always enjoy your content on MarketingProfs (the ‘Social Media Toolkit’ was a great cheat sheet this summer). You’re right on the money, and we’ll certainly put your advice in this post to good use on our Simplaris Launch Blog.

Although, I couldn’t help but notice one missing point:

The Seth Godin Endorsement Strategy

J/k, of course, but congrats on yours today! Never hurts ;)

Anyway, as the proud sponsors of Simplaris Blogcast, I know that the guys behind it are working very hard every day to continually enhance its value.

@The Adventurist, @timmyjohnboy and @[anyone else who uses Simplaris Blogcast]: We’re really glad it’s working well for you, and thanks for your support!

Hey Chris, thanks for the advice. Would you say it is more effective to try and stick with one strategy and really tailor your site to that one strategy, or to find two or three strategies that work well for you and combine them into some hybrid. Making the hybrid strategy may end up working well, but potentially could really confuse things and make a mess for yourself. What do you think?

I love how there is a strategy strategy. I love strategies and I am using this to build my blog. Each month I am showing my readers my progress so it encourages them now to stay a part of my blog and to build their own and also so 1-2 years down the track I can look back at the stats for each month and see how far I can come.
I believe being original and different is a key aspect to building readers and keeping them. Everyone wants to read something a little different to what they can read everywhere else

Thanks for this post! I’m “newish” to social networks and appreciated the tip about adding my posts to facebook. I was in the process of finding a better option than adding my RSS feed to the notes section! Thanks again!

Start by writing a xx steps to whatever. And then write a new more in depth post about each step, and do link from one to the other all the time. Works for me so far.

I like the # 7 The Strategy Strategy. Since to achieve any goals I believe that one has to have a Strategy which will help him to identify his goals and to achieve them as well.

Interesting post!!!
I’m still having trouble promoting my blog (http://mylifeiscrap.com) because I can’t really use the helpful strategy on there. Sure, it might make people feel better but I can’t offer ebooks or anything…I’ve tried the facebook thing…but appart from posting my url anywhere I can to draw audience (facebook is pretty good for that), while also contributing with my comment and not simply spaming I’m getting stuck. If someone can give me an honnest opinion about what I could do to draw more traffic to my “hard to promote” blog I’d appreciate: admin.mylifeiscrap@gmail.com

Thanks for this post though…I’m going to work through it and see what works!

I thought the most interesting part of this post was the paragraph at the end where Chris explains who he is. This part drew me in, even though it was obvious self-promotion. Very creative! Much more interesting than the normal guest post mumbo-jumbo.

@TheAdventurist – very happy that worked.

@Sunil – I’m glad that worked for you. Congrats on bringing more reasonable readers and subscribers.

@Mike – excellent. And try out one or two at a time. No need to rush in all over the place. : )

@the rest of you swell folks – thanks for your feedback, too. Glad to see it was useful.
