Today, Henri Junttila shares his 21 day experience of blog marketing that resulted in the Pagerank increase from zero to four in only 21 days. Want to write for us too?
It’s amazing at what you can accomplish when you work hard. My blog is around 3 weeks old and it has gone from PageRank 0 to 4, from 0 subscribers to 155 and from no one commenting to being almost like a community.
I know 155 subscribers doesn’t sound like much, but if I kept this rate up for a year, I would have well over 2,000 subscribers and that’s not bad now is it? You also have to consider that after a while you reach a breaking point where your blog starts to grow on its own, which means that you most likely will have close to 3,000 subscribers or a lot more in a year if you do things right.
I’ve never have a problem with working extremely hard, especially when I am passionate about something. I’ve been making a living online for a long time and I’ve discovered that working for yourself is a lot tougher than working for someone else.
Nobody tells you what to do. You have to figure everything out yourself. On top of it all, you have to manage your time and use the right tactics. In my opinion, I have come a long way in just three weeks and it is largely because I chose to focus on a few main points in building my audience and getting my name out there.
1. Blog Commenting
When I had my launch content ready – which consisted of 4-5 good posts and 5-day e-mail series – I started looking for blogs with good content that were somewhat related to what I was talking about. I currently have almost 100 blogs in my feedreader that I enjoy reading and try to comment on regularly.
Yes, commenting will take up a lot of your time (learn how to become a more productive commentator). It may not bring you huge amounts of traffic or link juice, but that isn’t the purpose. Getting traffic from commenting is a side-benefit. The main benefit is putting your face out there. Oh, before I forget, definitely make sure you have a good and friendly gravatar 
.
In just three weeks I’ve gotten people telling me that they’ve seen me everywhere. I didn’t even realize that it had such an impact. It seems to work like advertising. When you see 100 Kellogg’s commercials and you go to the store and see 5 unknown brands and Kellogg’s there’s a very high chance that you’ll pick Kellogg’s because it’s familiar. Commenting works the same way. That is, if you provide value in your comments.
2. Guest Posting
Guest posting is the number one tactic if you want to grow your readership and increase your authority in Google’s eyes. Take Blogussion for example – in two posts they earned 200 extra subscribers . I know you might be shy about asking bloggers about guest posting, but it isn’t that hard. Three weeks ago I didn’t know anyone in the blogosphere, and I mean by anyone I mean anyone, I didn’t even know the resident dust rat at Blogussion.
I’ve made a lot of good friends in a short amount of time because I started commenting, connecting and letting people know I appreciate what they are doing. It’s the law of reciprocity at work, which basically means that if you provide value for others, they will be more likely to provide value for you. Leave a mark on the other persons blog, and you will see some benefits.
This doesn’t mean that you should go into the whole thing with the mindset of getting something. On the contrary, I was so happy to be blogging about the subject I love that I enjoyed connecting with people and when I asked for a guest post pretty much everyone said yes.
If you really want to grow your blog, you have to guest post. I know that it can be scary. It is scary for me each time I submit a guest post, but fear is a part of life, it will always be there. The circumstances for guest posting will never be perfect, so start now.
The worst thing that can happen is that nothing changes. If you get rejected, ask them why, politely, so you can learn from the interaction and improve. Start with smaller blogs first and work your way up as you gain more and more momentum.
I have written around 10-15 guest posts during these 21 days and that is all it takes to really gain traction and go from PageRank 0 to 4. Aim for as authoritative blogs as possible, but don’t be afraid of connecting with the smaller ones.
3. Connecting and Helping
You have to care. If you don’t care about people and aren’t passionate about the subject you’re blogging about, chances are that people will notice and not want to stick around. Passion is contagious, because passion exudes positive, addictive energy and being around someone who is passionate feels awesome, even if it is in text.
So how do you connect with a blogging community?
There are many ways. The tools I use almost exclusively are Twitter and e-mail. I try to use as few tools as possible so I don’t overwhelm myself. Talk with people on twitter. Don’t tell them to visit your blog and sign-up, just talk and have fun.
People will naturally visit your blog and link to you if you are interesting and fun. Haven’t you noticed this yourself? If someone is making you laugh and in general helping you, aren’t you compelled to learn more about them?
The way I use e-mail is to let people know that I appreciate what they are doing. If I sincerely like something they are doing I want to tell them that. I’m not going to sell them anything or try to get them to link to me. How would you react if someone did that to you? You would probably delete the e-mail and make a note that the guy or girl sucks.
Be friendly, always provide value and help people. Give before you take. If someone e-mails you, make sure you reply as soon as possible. You want to engage your audience. One person may not seem to matter, but think about it. If you make one person happy and they tell five people, you then make those five happy, they tell five people. Do you see the potential?
What you put out there will come back to you many times over.
What works for you?
With all that said, I challenge you to share at least one blogging tip that worked for growing traffic and readership to your blog!
{ 7 trackbacks }
{ 88 comments… read them below or add one }
Blog commenting definitely helped. I would go one further and say QUALITY blog posting helps. Adding to the conversation and ‘connecting’ with others – the author of the post AND the people that are commenting in the post. Don’t limit yourself to making just 1 comment and saying ‘nice post!’.
Treat it like a forum post where you’re not limited to just 1 post/comment on a thread. Keep the discussion alive if you’re really into the subject at hand because a) you’re adding further to the blog post itself and b) your branding is more solid because you appear more than once in the thread (and hopefully adding some value/conversation to the post)
It’s a nice feeling when someone replies to something you’ve said, you almost don’t expect it when you comment on blogs and it’s a great way to get yourself recognised too.
Sarge | BeginnerBlogger.com´s last blog ..Guest Post Interview: Henri Junttila
Definitely add to the discussion. It does nobody any good if you just go around yelling “great post”
A must for blog owners is the subscribe to comments plugin and to allow threaded comments!
Excellent guest post and congratulations on your success in such a short period of time, it’s amazing how just about every blogger hears these same things over and over again, but it’s the select few like yourself that actually put it to use and show proven results.
BTW the two plugins you mentioned are a must have for a blog looking to grow at a rapid speed.

God knows how exciting ‘cool post’ comments by a girl / guy / someone named ‘Free SEO Site’ is. You open your inbox one fine morning and see nice email that someone thought your posts was worthy enough to throw in 2 cents. You click on it, it says ‘Loading…’ and then it says the best words ever heard “Nice Post!..”
And we say, well… maybe next time.
King Sidharth´s last blog ..What to Think When Chanting and How Long To Chant
Henri, you make it sound so easy… but it really is!
I think #3 (connecting and helping) quite possibly is more important and should be used in conjunction with the other two in a combined effort. Commenting and guest posting alone won’t have as dramatic of an effect as you’d think without always integrating the thought “How will this help someone?” (or in my case a lot of times “how will this entertain someone?)
It’s odd to think that putting yourself second works best… and actually achieves making yourself stand out as #1 in the process.

Hey Dave,
I think what Henri has done is awesome. Its exactly right and everything that I have done to do the exact same with sites I’ve run. The challenge for PR 5 is that it requires a substantial amount of backlinks recognized by Google. For PR 4 it only takes about 75-80. PR 5 is Hundreds. The numbers jump very fast!

Henri,
Thank you for your excellent tips.
Going PR 4 in 21 days is impressive, but realistic with your approach.
It shows it’s more about giving to others and building their community with blog comments, guest posts, Twitter and email follow-ups rather than a sole focus of content on your own blog.
Walt Goshert´s last blog ..Commodity… or, Hand-Crafted?
Right on, Walt.
You definitely have to think about giving value first. It’s hard work, but that work is play if you’re doing what you love anyway.
Great article. I can so totally relate. I did the exact same thing only under duress. I had my blog up and growing well when a certain MEGA search engine conglomerate tagged me for being a spam blog on Black Friday no less. I wan’t at home when this happened, traveling etc so it took me a week to BUILD A NEW BLOG AND MOVE the darn thing. I had some links to my URL out and about but that didn’t matter, My PR plummeted to a big fat zero. In 21 days I too achieved a PR4 but, it dropped to a PR3. I achieved it by doing all the things you suggested. Yes it works and it works better if you check the PR of the site you are going to comment on or guest post on or link exhance with in my experience.
I am re-learning the blogging ropes on WP with a Thesis theme. I have had a huge mess trying to clean up all of my external links to FaceBook, Twitter, Technorati and every other place you can think of when you are in the blogging game.
The best I can say is that my blog is functional. My readers have been great to indulge me through the holidays while I limped along to get this far. Now I am working on the design, getting some new graphics made etc.
I lost 2000 readers in the whole debaucle. I could cry but instead I have been using my anger to drive my work to achieve what I lost and move forward. ::::grrr:::::
Now, who wants to talk anchor text, key words, trackbacks, & link exchange as a part of this whole SEO game? Oh and what are we going to do about bots tagging us with nasty stigmas after we have worked so hard to build up a nice blog with a community?
Now for a compliment for this blog. I found you quite by accident today. I learned more in the 2 hours I spent on the site than I have in the past 4 months digging around on my own. The recommendation you give with the reasons you selected them are awesome. The resources for using Thesis are great for a newbie to WP/Thesis. I’m called a “Mom Blogger” but I am really a “Granny Blogger”. Thanks for teaching this old dog some brand new tricks and showing me some new toys that I can plug into my blog. OUTSTANDING!

Sounds like you operate much in the same way as myself. If something bad happens I (naturally) get angry but then start thinking about the solutions and channel that anger to get to my goal. Challenges and set-backs are bound to happen, it’s how you deal with them that matters.
Awesome stuff, Ginger!
Awesome stuff Henri! “You have to care.” this is something I try to remember everyday. Grats on the success, It shows that working smarter does pay off. Thanks for the great post.
Anthony´s last blog ..Thoughts on making money
Well,Howdy Henri,
Once again, this is an interesting piece.Every time I read what you write, I take something away from it. It is always a pleasure to read your articles. Your life has truly inspired me. Even if you receive negative feedback, Henri, keep up the good work!
Gentle readers: Henri walks his talk. Once, for example, I left a comment on Henri’s blog, Wake Up Cloud. Almost instantly, Henri sent me an email message: it was a sincere “thank you” for my contribution. Henri liked my comment, so wanted me to know that fact. Gosh, that was awfully nice of this guy that I don’t even know–Henri made my day. (Henri, keep on writing to us about the trials and tribulations of entrepreneurship.)
It is always nice to feel appreciated and Henri’s compliment was like a shot in the arm.
Ever since, I have become a fan of sorts and look forward to reading Henri’s posts.

Another great guest post that really drills home what hard work and dedication can do in just a short amount of time. I’m a simple creature and what you prescribe is simple too. Work hard, provide value and type fast!
I’d say that the biggest thing I ever did to grow a previous blog to over 3k subscribers was to connect with people. I made friends on Twitter and Digg and StumbleUpon and just had a bit of a chat with them. No link peddling or any of that. It reeks of desperation! If you genuinely take an interest in the people of the community you’re writing for, things can (and will) flow from there.
Good job, man!

chandan´s last blog .."PHP Dir Submit" Directory submission service
Google loves blogs, so blog commenting is an excellent way of gaining backlinks to your site. One thing to add is that the higher the pageRank of the blog you are commenting on will help push up your own pageRank. It’s the ultimate way to gain easy, free one way links to your site which just follows Google’s formula for determining popularity and relevance.
Now, having said that and the fact that you have a PR of 4, thanks for the link!
Donnie Bachan´s last blog ..Ready to start walking…
Henri,
I find it hard to write a good post, so guest posting is tough. But, I still need to do it and will. For now, I have grown my page rank to a 3, but has bounced around from 2 to 4 for a while. I found in the beginning I was almost obsessed with getting traffic and links and now I am more worried about page speed.
I have a ton of blogs in my readers, but I really only comment on ones where I have something to say. I try to never one line a comment. Since then, I have “friended” many new people and have learned more by interacting with the author…

And then I read on to eat all the cookies you spread in every article you write and I’ve to complain. You leave me wanting more. Do you even care that I might get diabetes after eating so many cookies?!

I find commenting a great way to ‘put your face out there’ as you’ve said. I learn something new most of the times on the blogs I visit, and it’s nice to ‘meet’ other commenters regularly. It hasn’t brought it much traffic, but it makes me feel I belong, that I am part of a community and I’m not alone.
I’m still hesitant about guest posting but would like to start on that this year.

Step1 and 3 boldly help. By giving blog comment on popular and do follow site will help to get page ranks and also visitor.
Connecting and helping gives result better then blog commenting. By creating content for visitor and giving online solution, visitors will defiantly stay long time in our website. According to current search engine algorithms, beck link is not important, search engine gives important on visitors and the time, how long they spend on your site.
I must say what a timely post. I posted something similar on my blog the same morning – 8 advice to gain up to 5 PR points in a few months (talk about great mind thinking alike
).
I didn’t use guest posting on my blog, but had the other two
Others include :
- exchange links with blogs in the same niche as yours (via blogroll and articles);
- write testimonials for things you use (gained link on a PR7 page with this one) ;
- create profiles on micro-blogging sites (Twitter is nofollow but other like posterous and identi.ca are not) ;
- help someone : I am french and I translated some WP plugins into french – got a couple of good quality links with this
I guess I’ll have to look into guest blogging now

Kudos on attitude about guest posting! I absolutely agree with you that it’s one of the scariest things for a blogger, especially someone who is just starting out. But like you’ve said, the worst thing that could happen is nothing would change. Guest posting is a very important technique to get more visibility and hence more traffic, so we have to step on some of our own fears to make it work. Thanks for a great post! – Lacey

Henri I think there are two main reasons for this.
One is your regular updates and second one is your guest post. Because we saw and tasted that few blogger even reach PR 5 with the guest posting.

Henri,
Congratulations on your success so fast! That’s awesome. I think it’s every blog post you do (be it guest post or not) you really have to look at a few key factors in order to bring the most value to your reader and unless you have passion for what you’re talking about it’s only going to make things much harder in the long run.

Yup! You have to be passionate about what you’re doing otherwise it’s going to be an uphill climb.

My first thought was – WOW, this guy rocks, he must be using some super-mega blog design or else.. From that point I thought your niche is “another blogging tipper”
Now I can see the real reason.. You help people to believe and to find the answers. Your niche fits everyone.. From now and on – I’m also your subscriber.
Awesome, thanks!
