Do you feel that partcipating in the forum has improved your blogs reach?

Frankly, the % of visitors is still low (under 1%). I do have two followers because of Indiblogger.

I wish bloggers would take the trouble of visiting other blogs and connect.

On the other hand I am sure many bloggers would be benefitted by my visiting their blogs. So it is ok, I guess.

Question: Not sure how much benefit the networking on Indiblogger offers. If that increases the page ranking for instance ...or revenue

Actually from what I have observed, certainly it has increassed readers. But just to be clear, I'd say the more we leave links to our blogs with our comments here, the more attention it will get.Otherwise lazy guys like me dont dig into other blogs from the username, unless that person's coment is interesting enough or the topic being interesting etc... I mean, something has to invite you to read my blog.

So I have certainly earned readers when ever I provided links .

I havn't done the 'review my blog' thing yet. Anwyays there are people coming fro the forums too i guess. Not a big difference though.

But i'll soon be redesigning the blog and hope to start afresh!

@ Rishabh : These are early days and I guess you need to keep trying.. maybe people are visiting your competition (cricinfo etc).. this is prob content related more than anything else.. maybe you can look into it further

 

@ sriharsha : Update your blog.. there are no pictures and a loooot of text.. focus on quality.. surely there should be a good improvement.. and keep blogging and posting on the forum .. am sure there will be a lot of unique visitors who come by everyday and bloggers are here to find good content..

 

@ Adarsh : Sustaining can only come with raising the bar on quality of posts every time I guess..

@Anoop: Great to know that you have 100% increase in visitors to your blog. I agree with you. Participating in the forum has increased viewership to my blog. (Not yet looked at the numbers, but increase is there.) However, it remains to be seen whether the increase in viewership will be sustained.

@ Anitha: Cool! Nice to know that you have more followers and more comments on your blog.

For my blog, nothing has increased much. Only 1 follower who has added my blog in his blog network. Comments are still 0. It's just that there has a been a little bit improvement in traffic. I used to get around 4-5 visitors on my blog daily before, now i m getting 7-8 atleast. Seems like no one likes cricket over here ! Neither there are any cricket blog writers (according to me).
