That is a hard question to answer. Indeed when you are active in the forums more people are likely to visit your blog website and your page impressions begin to pay. Keeping them on your page is more difficult than getting them there. You have to hold their attention for a little longer than 10 seconds if you want to make any kind of money from blogging.
Part of blogging for money is keeping your reader's attention. Keeping your reader's attention will keep your bounce rate low and improve your click through rate (CTR). If you want to make any decent cash with Google's Adsense you have to have a CTR that is higher than 2% to get the higher paying ads on your page. Using Adwords to promote your blog will help with that.
Back to forums directed at those who blog. This is where a good portion of your marketing is done. You don't want to over saturate the forums with your comments but you want to stay relevant. Another quick tip is to use the same avatar for every forum you visit so that others will know who you are. Since the majority of your traffic are those who choose to blog you want to make sure that your content is geared towards an audience that does the same thing you do.
Target marketing only works when you are targeting the right people for your product. In this case it is your own brand of blog that you are marketing. Talking with others in the same niche category will increase your exposure to your target market. Always keep this in mind if you want to get the best value out of a blogger forum. One last tip before I run, post on more than one forum because not every blogger will use the same forum and you want to maximize your potential to attract new readers.

It is true to try to use the same avatar on different social networks. I always like to read the posts from members that I recognize already before exploring further.
ReplyDeleteI've been using the same Avatar for a while and I find that it helps friends from other social sites find you easier. You can build a following on each social site which helps your popularity so you can get the traffic you are looking for. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment goofblogger.
