Bloggers - What sort of views are you getting?

Hello fellow bloggers,

I've just recently started blogging and have been going for a little over a month now. Just wondering roughly how many views you guys are getting an an average month? And how do you promote your blog?

Either cynical belittling ones or far-right wing views.
My blog has been active and public since about October and I've had 18,000 hits from 5300 visitors since then, no idea how good/bad/average that is.

I'm new to this so I don't really know if that's good/average either. How are you promoting your blog?

I'd say that's pretty good. Mine has been going longer but since Oct 1st I've had:

44k pageviews from 8.7k users.

Primarily though commenting on other related blogs and forums. Once I'd been going a few months I noticed several sites were starting to link back to me. 1 site in particular now generates about 50% of all my traffic.
Oh wow! So basically I need to go stalkermode lol. What's your blog address?

I get about 10,500 visits a month. Roughly 350-390 visits a day. Most of which come from Pinterest and Google :smile:

I've seen others mention this before. How does it generate leads?

My blog would be of no interest to you or 99.9% of people here I expect, it focuses on extreme early retirement (40s or younger).

I create keyword rich boards, and pin relevant images in there - using the Pinterest search function. Since i the personal development niche, it's all about the quotes, and they're very popular on pinterest/Instagram.

I use buffer to schedule my pins, roughly about 5 a day, and the pins which get the most repins/likes, i insert my link in the pin description where people can read more about the topic. This sends a lot of residual traffic to my blog.

Since I've got a sign up form/call to action box at the bottom of my articles - people jist fill it in and i grow my list that way.

One of my pins has been repinned over 17,000 times hehe. Thought it was a fluke before, but i repeated the process and it seems to be an effective strategy :smile:

Sounds really interesting. Can you link us to some? (or PM it over if you don't want to link in public?).

thanks!
