Why is my blog traffic low? This is the common question that most bloggers ask on a regular basis. To be frank, Getting traffic to a blog can be a daunting task especially if you are just starting out, I have been in this stage before and I know how it feels to get just 75 visits in a month when you read blogs that publish their monthly traffic report with over 20,000 visits. 
When I started my blog, Traffic and income report used to “encourage me” and as well as “frighten me”, sometimes I find it hard to convince my inner-self that I can achieve such feat of top bloggers in the blogosphere; but I have learnt overtime that the secret to their huge traffic is just Two things which are: “Hard work and Smartness” if you can harness the power of these two attribute, you are on your way to an avalanche of traffic.
In this post, I will be addressing some mistakes you could making that is having a negative impact on your blog traffic, these things are those little things you are ignoring unknowingly, they are the reason you keep asking yourself “Why is my blog traffic low?
Networking With the Wrong People
Have you heard the saying; “Birds of the same feather flocks together”? This saying is very well applicable to blogging especially if you want to improve your blog traffic. Let’s take a look at this illustration: let’s say you are a weight loss/health blogger and you have 1,000 Facebook friends but out of these 1,000 friends 90% of them are Football Fanatics and the remaining 10% have diversified interest, do you think you can get referral traffic from Facebook?
The answer is simply NO, why? Because the larger part of your friend base is not interested in what you are offering; they would prefer a link to a Football Transfer rumour site or a world cup highlight video to your own weight loss blog, but if the scenario is reversed (90% friends are weight loss fanatics) you will discover that you will be getting a handful of traffic via your friend base because you are in network with people with the same interest.
This principle applies to all social networking sites you use, be it Twitter or LinkedIn, the more targeted followers and friends you have the more referral traffic you will get to your blog. I am a fan of Facebook and I will recommend that you join various Facebook groups; this is the best way to find like-minded people and connect with them.
If you are in the weight loss niche, look for friends in that niche, follow them and build a relationship with them this will help you on the long run. This same technique apply to Twitter and co. Follow people of the same interest, retweet their tweets and occasional send them a direct message.
You Don’t Publish Regularly
Posting regularly is very important especially if your blog is new, have you heard the saying “Out of Sight, Out of Mind” these six words are the killer of any business! (Including a blog). Am also guilty of this point, because some point I don’t usually publish on my blog due to school stress and time factor and I can see the effect it has on my rankings. When people don’t see you around, naturally they tend to forget that you ever existed, if you want more traffic you need to be consistent with your posting schedules.
Apart from your readers, search engines also love sites that are updated regularly; they love blogs that produce unique and valuable content on a consistent basis that is why it is imperative for you to publish regularly.
The more posts you publish, the more frequent search engines bots crawl your site, the more pages you have in Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs) and the more traffic you will get. So, if you usually publish once or twice a week, I will advice you to step up your game, the competition is high out there and most f your competition are publishing daily.
So, if you don’t want to keep asking “Why is my blog traffic Low?” work out a posting schedule and stick to it.
You don’t Guest Post
Guest posting is a great opportunity for bloggers, you get the chance to hijack the audience of established blogs in your niche for FREE. Apart from the exposure and awareness guest posting creates, the targeted traffic you can get might be just what you need to take your blog to the next level.
If you are just starting out, guest posting is one of the best way for you to get traffic, when you start your new blog, I guess no one knows you and only a few people will care to even listen to what you have to say in your blog post, people listen to people they have known and trust; big guys like Danny In, “Freddy Krueger of Blogging” or “His Royal Awesomeness” Jon Morrow.
It is much easier for this guys to get traffic because they are established, and it is possible for you to achieve the same feat too by Guest blogging, Onibalusi bamidele is a good example, his blog is solely built around guest blogging, he stunned the world with is guest blogging passion.
So, if you want more traffic, start guest blogging today, and I will strongly advice you to give your best in your guest post because it may turn out to be a source of endless traffic for you. You can start with two guest post per week and gradually step up the pace. So, what are you waiting for? Get out of your shell and let the world know you and your blog exist via Guest posting.
Your Blog is New
Another reason you may be asking “Why is my blog traffic low?” may be because your blog in new! If you have just started a blog, like I said earlier, except you are pros like: Brian Clark or Darren Rowse, it is normal for you to get little or no traffic, but with time this will surely change and your blog traffic will improve.
So, if you have a month or two old blog, don’t be in a hurry to ask why your blog traffic is low, rather work on the implementation of the above tips and see your blog soar.

Joseph,
I am new at blogging and I am picking up little bits and pieces in what makes a successful blog. I do blog almost on a daily basis, but I am writing a lot more for each article and seeing my traffic increase.
I view my Alexa rank and it’s 23 million out of 26 million, something like that. I have been blogging less than a month and have almost 15,000 page views. Should my ranking be this high? Do I need to wait 3 months for Alexa to give me my true ranking?
Thank you very much!

Hi Joseph! Thank you for sharing your best experiences. it is a common phenomenon in this competitive blog earth. There are few bloggers know the SEO strategies and able to get tons of traffic but as a newbie there may be lack of SEO tricks. I have already got thousands of similar types of queries on community forums and comments forums. There is only one solution, Quality…………Quality……………. Quality. We cannot do any consent over the quality of blog or sites. Why search engine prioritization your blog your site. What is the value of your site and why search engine boost your rank? it is all about the queries of the SEO kingdom. Only quality and authentic contents get the priority in search engine. so that we have to know the better SEO ideas to get quick ranks and tons of traffic to the site.
One of the greatest challenges for the smaller bloggers or site publishers is low traffic but they cannot spend money for their promotional campaign. There is only one solution is SEO strategy.
At first I did not believe on this matter but when I got the complete ideas of SEO, and then I think web traffic is all about SEO strategy. you may check http://googma.blogspot.com
Best of luck.

Hi Googma,
Yu are right about the importance of quality and SEO. SEO is important but one also have to find ways of generating traffic other than search engines, if you have been watching SEO trend these days, you will discover that Search engines are now following people, they rank sites that people visit regularly higher than other sites because the assume they are authority sites.
If you can build a circle of people in your niche around you and you do some guest posting, I believe search engines will follow people to your blog.

Hi Joseph Adediji! Thank for your excellent reply. I agree with your opinion. Friend! I mean to say there is more than 90% traffic drive through Google Search Engine. It is a latest fact sheet of Google Search Engine. So that quality content helps to drive traffic trough Google Search Engine and it also help to boost the Google PageRank as well as Alexa Rank. When you post more than thousand words article with research base data then Google love it and get the priority while searching related keywords. SEO strategy plans the vital role to drive traffic. You can drive through community best forums and good as well as top commenting in high PR DoFollow blogs. My blog http://googma.blogspot.com is also drive traffic through
1. Social bookmarking
2. Social networking sites
3. High PR Do Follow blogs
4. Forums post
5. Directory submission
6. Press release submission
7. Guest post (Guest Blogger)
8. Article Submission
9. RSS Feeds
10. Regular quality article posting
11. Good Commenting on DoFollow Blogs.
Best of luck. It is a great challenging job but anyone can do easily if he/she have dedication on his/her goals. More visibility on search engine more traffic generating to your site. If you have high traffic to your blog then tries to monetize your traffic and transform your visitors into buyers. It will really help to earn money from online also.

What an inspiring post Joseph. It can be very discouraging to watch low daily traffic numbers. Crawling up the ranks in the search engines and practicing good social networking skills is indeed a daunting task.
The thing I keep reminding myself of, is that time is not only your enemy, but your friend as well. But I try to stay consistent, I believe things come easier once you’ve trained yourself to be consistent with your posting. Plus it also keeps your traffic coming back if they know what days that new article will be available.
There’s a couple of things you mentioned in this post that I’m definitely going to put into play immediately. Thanks again!

Good post Joe,
The number one reason why most people don’t have traffic is they don’t understand the three main types of traffic:
1. direct. People who know you URL
2. Referral. People who click a link to get to your URL.
3. Search. People who find your site from a search engine.
All you have to do is take action every week to increase your traffic in all three areas.

Great points Joseph. Especially I like this – “networking with the wrong people” – This is very crucial and affects blog traffic greatly. If a blogger can’t “identify” his/her target customers in the first place and then network with them (genuinely and not for “sales” purpose) then he will be in trouble. No wonder there won’t be a surge of traffic to his/her site.

traffic is the lifeblood for blogs. I guess many will agree on that …
Well, I cant’ disagree with your post here Joseph. But based on my experience, guest blogging alone wouldn’t give the best result on getting targeted traffic especially for relatively new blog. For example, if you blog about jewellery and guest posting on problogger.net it might be little chance you’ll get targeted traffic (traffic may increase but not the targeted one). Your blog rank may increase but different story with the targeted traffic. In this case press release, article submission, or directory submission might work better.
Then you can try blog commenting (on related niche) and engagement on related online community, it’s free, no time consuming and almost always works for any niche. All you need is just watch and learn how the traffic grows (from where and in what topics it does increase).
Last but not least method is attend on offline event that strongly related with your blog niche. Many people visit a blog because they’ve met the bloggers personally, try it out.

I definitely see all of these from a lot of new bloggers. The biggest problem also comes from people not optimizing their blogs, and they find themselves having a hard time ranking for much of anything. Or they work on ONE area of these, but not the majority of them. Post frequency alone isn’t going to give you any big increase, you have to have a link building plan, posting schedule, quest posts, ect. ect. Add them all together, and that littler 75 visitors a month will shoot up quickly.

The recent updates is making Search engine traffic unreliable and unpredictable, so lets get out there and get the traffic by our self.

Thats true. I am a blogger, and i had been in search of more traffic. I was updating daily but i havn’t backlinks. That was the reason, i could not get more traffic. You are right updating daily and making valueable backlinks as well, is the key to get more ad more traffic.
Thanks Joseph for the useful post.

I strongly agree to the point, guest posting because it gives us quality backlinks which is good for SEO and it also sends us traffic from those sites. I am receiving traffic to my professional site mostly from referral links which are my guest posts

Hey Dixon,
i added that because some people think once they start a new blog, all the traffic from Google should be redirected to them, getting traffic takes time and hard work.
If you have good content, people will come to your blog.
I think the biggest mistake people make is that they don’t write good, compeling copy. That’s the key to get returning visitors.
Twitter: CrackMeDown
Yeah, Posting regularly it does makes sense and works too but we should also keep in mind about the post quality, which i guess at initial stage most of us do forgets while in the hurry of posting new content..
Above all, All the points are good and solid…

Hi,
I think the points that you have shared are just perfect for a blog to get ignored by people, thus getting a low in traffic. For a blogger, he need to blog almost regularly, offcourse the content should be unique so that it draws the attention of your readers. Well I also believe that interaction should be there between your visitors. This is definitely helpful for your blog. Thanks for the share!!

I love this advice because it’s so true! John Paul Dejoria (the founder of Paul Mitchell) which is worldwide famous and in over 80 countries now, and JP is worth $4.2 billion, started in 1980 living out of his car going salon to salon trying to sell his hair products, and he said it was two years before he could finally pay his bills on time (not pay them off, just one time) with $2,000 left over in the bank… and we can’t see how something so small (getting 10 or less visits a day) after two months can end up with 1,000,000+ monthly visitors, but the secret is persistence.
Just like computer RAM, it went from 1MB to 8MB over about 4 years from 1984-1988, but it went from around 2,000 to 6,000+ since 2008; once something multiplies it multiplies greater and greater.
I also like that you gave simple steps to getting there, but that in the end persistence is the most important factor between those who make it, and those who don’t.
Thanks again!

This is good information, Joseph! I might add that blog posts should be meaty, at least 500 words long and if you have a sales blog, there should be a call to action at the end of the post. Guest blogging, as you said is invaluable, and is a two-way street. I think for 2013 the best bloggers will step up their game. Let’s do it!

Chris recently posted..GoPro Bike Video & Mounting Tips
Great information! I think some people don’t realize the amount of work that goes into building up a site from 0 hits to 20,000 hits! I started my site last year and my site only gets about 4000 hits per month so far. But the first first month i only got 75 hits! And month two i got 384. I took an SEO course that helped a lot but it was only good until Panda came out. I tried stuff that didn’t work, I tried stuff that did. I listened to podcasts in my car. I was a little obsessed with it to tell the truth. But if you do the right keyword research, consistently post, and keep up with your backlinks you can see improvements but it takes time. That is one thing I know for sure. It takes tons of time.

Well said Joseph. You successfully pointed out the main reasons for low traffic. Another reason which I’d like to add is “Lack of self confidence” . New bloggers are little bit scared to try methods which will certainly increase their blogging reach.
Guest blogging remains by far the most effective way to increase your traffic dramatically if implemented in the right way. After the new Penguin update old methods of link building have gone out of favor and suddenly people are once more realizing the importance of Guest Blogging for SEO and traffic.

I heard a story in my childhood about the rabbit and the tortoise, the moral of which was ‘slow and steady sure wins the race’. Referring to this blog post, I can complete relate to it here as I feel to establish a blog, we must continue all the efforts we can but at the same time we should not forget that it takes time to get settled and getting a lot of quality traffic. Hence, a message to all the fellow bloggers who have recently started a blog is to have patience and put your efforts with true devotion – success will eventually come if you have put your efforts in the right way. Good Luck !
