How To Get More Blog Traffic According To 7 6-Figure Pro Bloggers
This is Christian Blogging Academy where I share what I’ve learned about blogging from a Christian perspective. And for this next post let me just say this…If blogging really was an academy, these ladies would be straight-A students.
If you’re struggling as a blogger then you need to pay attention to some of the things that these master bloggers are doing.
There are tons of blog traffic articles on Pinterest. Some of them you read and your like, ummm, less than impressed because it didn’t really offer advice that you could use or it offers advice that you’ve heard over and over.
Well, that’s not what these blog posts are. These blog posts are some of the best on Pinterest.
How do I define “best”, though because that could literally mean 100 different things to 100 different people?
This is how I define best within the context of this article…
The best blog traffic articles mean:
1. It has at least one piece of not so common advice on it. It has to have something in it that makes me go hmmm.
2. You get caught up in reading it because it is packed full of so much information.
So that’s what I mean by these articles are the best articles on Pinterest in regards to getting more blog traffic that I have read so far.
If you have a suggestion that’s not on the list then let me know and I’ll consider adding it.

This blog was a new one for me but I quickly became engrossed in the content and the advice that she was giving in this blog post.

I’m glad that Pauline discussed this marketing method when others shy away from it. Good on you!
