Getting More Traffic To Your Blog By Using A Share This Button

If you started a blog in order to make some money from it, you are aware that without people coming to your blog, you won't make any money. People are always trying to find new ways of getting more blog site visitors. The problem is people are always looking for the new strategies and techniques and forget about what has been working for years. This is why I decided to go over how crucial it is to just add a "share this" button on each one of your blog posts. I will also explain to you how this button may end up taking your blog from practically nothing to getting steady targeted visitors daily.

A "share this" button is a very simple way for 1 visitor to your site to share your blog post with many hundreds or even thousands of other people. I am sure somewhere along the line you have actually been on a blog and you observed a bookmarking button. The reason these people have them on their blogs is mainly because it is a way to enable visitors share the post with their buddies.

Many of these buttons that are available are not limited to only one social bookmarking site, but have the power to allow people to share this on numerous social networks at once. If you truly want to see how potent this little button can be don't limit the web sites that your visitors can post to. In order to get the most out of buttons like this search for one that permits people to add the comment to many different sites. At the very least you should add a button for the majority of the preferred social sites. You will need to keep in mind that everyone on the World wide web is different and belong to completely different social networking sites so you really do not want to limit their options.

For those of you using a wordpress theme for your blog, you may be able to find loads of unique types of buttons that you can use. A person can just look for "share this" on the add plugin screen. Some of the plugins will only include a handful of social networking sites, while others may have the ability to include 30 or more sites. Ultimately you want a plugin which in turn includes most social networking sites.

At this point I want to explain how robust this button can be when it comes to generating more traffic to your own blog. Let's assume you have only one visitor to your site on a specific day and they liked the post so they chose to share the post with each of their friends on facebook. This person liked your article or post and they start using the "share this" button and promote your blog post to about 50 of their friends on what ever social site they tend to be on. Now lets say that 50 people saw the post but just 7 chose to stop by your site and go through the post for themselves. And because they enjoyed the article 3 of them chose to talk about this on facebook, digg and stumble upon. Now this single post may be endorsed to 150 or more people. And out of those 150 people, lets say that 20 of these people visit your blog and 8 of them write about the post with their friends on their social networking sites. I am sure you can see how one post along with a good "share this" button can turn directly into loads of traffic.

By simply adding a small little plugin like this you may start getting a lot more visitors. And as you know, the more traffic you end up getting the more money you will produce.
