In many people’s opinion, organic traffic is the best. It’s free, it’s targeted and nine times out of ten, you’ll get a much better response, whether it’s for a company promotion, getting readers to your blog and building up solid relationships. Let’s take a look at just a few easy ways that you can start taking advantage of organic traffic and visitors, right now.

The first step is to make sure that your blog is fully optimized. One of the best platforms for quick indexing is WordPress, but depending on your content, it may not work quite well enough for you. Once you have your SEO portion of your campaign completed, you will need to keep going, making small changes, testing conversion rates and seeing just how much traffic your efforts are bringing in.

This optimization should extend not only to your content, but also to your post titles, headers, image alt-links, and literally everything else on your site. If you want a lot of organic traffic and you are in a competitive niche, you’ll need to go all out to make sure that you are getting the results you want.

Now, once you have your corporate blog fully optimized, it’s time to think about what you are actually going to be writing and whether or not it will help you increase the amount of organic visitors to your site. While placing keywords in your post is important, it should never outweigh good content that people can actually use, learn from and connect with.

Good content gets around, and that means more organic visitors for you. Word of mouth is still one of the most popular and profitable forms of advertising and there is no reason that your corporate blog cannot benefit. Since you’re not paying for these visitors through PPC ads or other means, you’re getting a chance to actually develop a relationship with your visitors and that all important motivation to keep going.

Promote your RSS feed. One of the easiest ways to get backlinks to your site, and to increase awareness about your products is through an RSS feed. Whenever you post on your corporate blog, take the time to ping your feed using a service like Pingomatic, or Pingoat. These will submit your RSS feed to numerous places and you can easily start to see results right away. As a bonus, indexed RSS content can be picked up by search engine spiders very quickly.

So, now you have your corporate blog optimized, you’re starting to develop relationships with your readers and you are getting your feet wet with RSS promotion. It may take a few tries to get results, but if you can stick with it, chances are you’ll start to notice a big increase in the amount of your daily traffic.

Try a few methods today to help you get more organic visitors and see how well the techniques work for you. With a little hard work, and smart promotional tips, you can get noticed by your audience.

If you’re confounded by that little orange graphic you see on blogs, it’s time to learn all about RSS and how it can benefit your own blog. Most software packages and content management systems offer RSS capablility, but it’s up to you to implement it. When used properly, RSS feeds are an important part of corporate blog promotion. Let’s take a look first at what RSS is and what it does before we move to the next step.

First, RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. This means that it collects the new content that you produce, and makes it available to readers through syndication. The old method involved emailing people to let them know when you published something new, but RSS completely automates this process.

When you have an RSS feed, this means that all of your new content will be available through it. Your readers will copy that RSS link and then put the link into their RSS software. Whenever you publish something new, they will get either the entire article, or a snippet, depending on how you have configured your feed. There’s nothing else that you have to do, since the RSS feed takes care of everything for you.

We mentioned RSS software briefly above, so let’s go a little more in depth on how this works. There are thousands of different software packages out there, and they are called RSS readers. What they do is collect the RSS feeds that a user puts in, and then post content whenever it is updated. Everything is automated and new content can be made available within seconds of publication.

But how does the software know when there is new content? Basically, it requests the feed every so often, and if something has been added since the last request, it will display. This is the manual method and it may take awhile for your content to be delivered, depending on your reader’s settings.

A way to get around this issue is by using a ping service. When you send out a ping, you are basically letting all of these RSS readers know that you have new content. Think of a ping like a doorbell. You wouldn’t stand on someone’s porch for hours hoping they would open the door. You ring that doorbell to let them know you are there. Pinging works much the same way.

While there are some technical aspects of RSS, we’ll focus on the generalities. If you’re using blogging software like Wordpress, or a CMS, you’ll never really have to worry about much. When you first install that software, you’ll be asked to apply some settings, such as whether or not you want to send out an excerpt, which is recommended, or the full article to your readers. Remember, if you only send an excerpt, they’ll have to go to your site to get the rest of the article.

Most of these blogging utilities will automatically ping for you, so all you have to do is sit back and publish your blog, letting it take care of the rest, and reap the benefits of RSS for you.
