The good news is that it is fixable and it can take as much as 6 months to get your blog noticed by Google. In this post, I will outline a number of things that you can do to get visitors to your blog from other sources. Why is it so Hard to Get Your Blog Noticed? The core reason why it can be hard to get your blog noticed is you need to understand how visitors find out about you. Let's look at an analogy. If you decided one day to open a supermarket in a town of 100,000 people and they pass by every day they know that you are there. If you decided instead to open a store that sold clothing for Eskimos. In this case, the store was in the middle of Phoenix, Arizona you may get a few sales but not as much as a supermarket. The reason the store gets a few sales is that people can see your physical store so they know that your store is there. However, the market may not be right for the location. A blog is different because it does not have a physical presence so when you set up a blog you need to let people know it is there so they can find you. photo by Nicole de Khors How To Get People To Find Your Blog The first step in this process is understanding who your potential readers are for your blog.

Here are a few places for you to consider as to where to find your reader; * Facebook* Twitter* Instagram* Pinterest* Linkedin* Reddit Also, what problem are you trying to help them solve? Where do they normally go to find a solution to their problem?

I can think of two places and those are searching in Google as well as on Pinterest. You may find a few as well on Reddit. The best way to get people to find you is to find the places where they hang out online and place your information right in front of them. Create Stunning Blog Posts Workbook Gain a Captive Audience
