The strategy we will discuss in the further parts of this post will work for any category or niche blogs that are created on blogger or WordPress hosting.
It will not take more than 5-7 minutes, read it completely till the end. This can change everything for your blog!
WHY MY BLOGGER OR WORDPRESS SITE NOT GETTING ORGANIC TRAFFIC?
The below five are the most common reasons for not getting organic traffic to your blog. First, understand them and then we will see how to overcome them in this same post.
High Competition
Firstly, many of us might have inspired reading to articles or watching YouTube videos where they say blogging is easy and earn millions within few month…
Which is not completely true, for that to happen you need to stay ahead of your competitors.
Reality is that, there are already lot of existing competition from millions of blogs which are there with 100s or 1000s of well optimized articles.
Low Quality Content
Secondly, thin content or low quality content issue. People who have applied for AdSense and got rejected would be familiar with these terms.
If you do not have quality content, google wont rank your website, your post will not appear in search results and ultimately you wont get traffic on your blog.
Problem is, we think that we research a lot, check competitors content on a topic and write articles covering additional topics so our content is of high quality.
You thought the same?
But no, it is not quality content. There are already big bunch of blogs talking about same stuff and your is just one more.
URL Not Indexing On GSC
Thirdly, due to less content or bad page design, many URLs will not be indexed by Google.
Do you know what happens if your blog is not indexed on google?
It wont appear in search results, that means no one can see your post even on 100th page.
Old Promotional Strategy
Fourthly, old is not every time gold, some times it is rust. Many of us just follow the out dated strategies suggested by some YouTubers.
Most of them create videos talking about the same ideas because they copy from each other.
And we end up believing and implementing them, why? Because everyone is telling the same and getting more views.
No, if that is true why are we still facing issues getting traffic?
No Consistency
Finally, Sometimes we might follow the right methods but we fail to post consistently
This is very bad practice, we will not see any growth if we are not posting new content regularly.
Now let us see how to overcome these hurdles and generate organic free traffic!!
Best Method To Get Free Traffic To Your Blogger Or WordPress Blog
