Over the last year or so, I have been seeking out ways to improve my blog. I want to not only maintain my current readership and make sure they continue visiting on a regular basis, but I would also like to expand it! One of my biggest problems when I first hit the blog-o-sphere was that I had a lack of “interaction” with my readers and admittedly, it is still something I continue to struggle with on occasion! I think interaction plays a major role in maintaining readers, after all, if you are not providing a reason for them to return many of them simply won’t!

I was recently introduced to a wonderful site - Blog About Your Blog, which is a community of bloggers who provide articles ranging from general help for your website to tips and advice on how you can Increase Website Traffic! They also provide fun contests like Comment Friday, that you can participate in! I have been going through some of the articles because as mentioned above, I am always seeking out ways to improve my blog and the quality of my blog! After brainstorming for a couple of days, I thought the best way I could attract new readers was to hold fun contests! Blog About Your Blog actually has an article - 6 Great Tips For Hosting A Blogging Contest, which I think some of you will find very helpful! I know many of you have also considered holding contests! This article will give you a little insight on what bloggers are looking for in regards to the work involved verses the prize offered!

If you are truly serious about improving your blog’s quality and maintaining your current readership, while expanding it, then Blogaboutyourblog.com is going to be a great resource for you! It is definitely heading straight to my own bookmarks!
