I work with thousands of bloggers and these are some tactics that can really make a difference in traffic:1. Twitter - we are already on Twitter (cause we love this group!) but there are so many features on Twitter that can help attract more readers to your blog.

Share a little something about yourself with other moms.: I am the mom of three boys and spent most of my parenting years as a single mom. I blog about being the parent of teens (some things are so nutty, you just can't make this stuff up), blogging and social technologies, and the absurdity of life. I am founder of a tech company that provides social widgets for bloggers. I grew up on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland but loving living outside of Boulder, Colorado.

What is your blogging philosophy?: I try to be funny and absurd when I write, which is easy to do when you are talking about teenagers. I don't mention their names or blog about anything so personal that their friends will recognize. I try to keep it real, I'm not proud, I screw up a lot, and I'm delighted when any irrelevant tidbit of info I pass on actually turns out to be useful!

I have been blogging since...: 2007

So what do you do if you know you are going to be away from your computer for a few days or weeks and don't want your readers to miss an update? Schedule them in advance!

Most blogging platforms allow you to create drafts of posts and schedule them for later publication. You can usually find this… Continue
