How To Use Social Sites to Drive Instant Traffic To Your Blog?

Associate as many social accounts to your ping.fm profile as possible. This can be accounts like Facebook, Twitter, digg and many others. Add them all. Create accounts on other social sites, you do not yet have.

Another idea is to create completely new accounts on all sites just for your blog, you want to promote. In this way, you can keep things separate, e.g. private twittering and ‘business’ twittering.

Update your profiles to be consistent, that is, if someone follows you via different channels, he should see the same information. It is easiest to just be honest.

Add the blog to each profile. With separate accounts, you have the benefit of separating your properties. On the other hand it might be a disadvantage only to have this one blog in your profiles, not your other properties.

Just try it out, you will see, what works for you. Just remember, that you can always update you profiles.

The trick itself is easy.

If you post something on ping.fm, it will distribute your message to all of your social accounts. It is fast and easy to consistently publish appetizers or snippets of your latest blog post. Each time, you do this, the message will be distributed to all of your social accounts at the press of a button.
In my experience, this brings almost instant traffic, even from brand new social account profiles.

There are several free plugins for WordPress, for example PingPressFM, that will automatically update ping.fm if you submit a new post to your blog.

There are other ways to use social sites to drive instant traffic to your blog, but this one is one of the easiest and best to automate one on the long run.

Do you use social sites in your blog marketing strategy? How do you use them?
