blogging 102 | Don’t Discount LiveJournal for Traffic

Reading time: < 1 minute

Just when I thought my LJ Blog was just a cross post repository for my other blogs so my friends could keep in touch with what I am doing along comes the a surprising number of Google hits to The Other Blog and I find that they are being directed from my LJ which had this nice hand slot of second position in an Idol Results search. The post wasn’t an hour old and who knows by the number of hits, 60 in a matter of minutes, I might have been the top slot for a bit. As means of drawing traffic to your blog, cross posting and staying in touch with you friends in these communities can certainly be to your benefit.
