3 Cool Traffic Strategies

1. Curation Engines.

If you're doing any blogging at all, then you need to be tapping

into the hundreds of different curation engines that exist online.

These are websites and email newsletters that collect (and syndicate)

the very best content from around the web.

Sites like AllTop.com, AffBuzz.com, GrowthHackers.com, Scoop.it, and

BloggerScope.

This is one of the easiest ways to amplify your content and get

hundreds of extra visitors to EVERY blog post you write.

Here are just a few...

AllTop.com - The Best of the Web on every topic known to man. Find a category

and submit your awesome blog!

Buffer Daily - Getting your content featured here can result in

500 - 1500 retweets. (Bazinga!)

ProductHunt.com - A cool... and slightly addicting :) website that lists

hot new products, websites, and apps daily. Featured sites generally get

a 1,000+ visitors.

LessonPlans.com - Do you have a website for teachers or homeschool parents?

You can submit lesson plans here to get lots of extra traffic. Every lesson

links back to your website.

BloggerScope.com - 65 of the most influential marketing blogs.

Submit your site if you've got what it takes!

Plus, there are also thousands of websites and email newsletters

that do weekly "link roundups" to share their favorite blog posts

from around the web.

The perfect place to get your latest blog post featured :)

To find these traffic honey holes, simply go to Google and use

the following search queries...

"Daily Link Roundup"

"Weekly Link Roundup"

"Monday Link Roundup"

"Friday Link Roundup"

"Link Roundup"

If you want to find blogs specifically related to your market, then add

a modifier...

"Weekly Link Roundup" + moms

"Weekly Link Roundup" + parenting

"Weekly Link Roundup" + fitness

You can also use these same queries on sites like Google Plus or

Twitter Search.

Once you've found 10 related link roundups, contact the blog owner

and send them a link to your latest blog post.

If you've published truly great content, then there's a very good chance

that they will link to you in their weekly link roundup.
