How To Be Active On WordPress
If you read yesterdays post you know the importance of being active on WordPress and as promised here are four simple ways to do it:
Comment- This is the best way to get activity on your blog in my opinion. Leaving comments- positive ones of course- makes a huge difference because not only does it show that you took the time to read someones post but that you enjoyed it enough to leave a comment. I’ve noticed that the more comments I leave on posts I enjoy the more activity I have on my blog. However, don’t spam people because that will just annoy people and probably do more damage then good. Click here for more detailed Do’s and Don’ts when it comes to blogging.
Share- This is such a simple way to be active but yet very effective. Sharing posts you enjoy reading will likely bring the author of the post over to your blog as well as some of their followers because of the pingback/reblog comment.
Like- even though you may nit always have time to comment on every single post you enjoy reading if you did enjoy it remember to leave a like on it. This way the author will know you enjoyed it and a lot of times when you leave a like they come back to your blog and support your posts too.
Follow- If you really enjoy reading someones blog you should definitely consider following their blog. A lot of people have a follow for follow policy and it will help increase followers/views on your blog.

These are simple great ways of getting traffic and just when I curious on how to get more traffic on my blog!

@youngcountrymama They are simple yet effective methods. Personally I do all of them except reboot other people’s posts. Consistently is also important – commenting daily is what has worked for me so far, and also leaving genuine comments. Not comments such as, “Great post!”
Hilary Tan
Reblog** not reboot. Silly autocorrect. 🤦♀️

6 months into my own blog and engaging with others by commenting is one of my favourite things to do. I agree, it helps you grow your own blog and is a great way to show others that you liked their posts 🙂
PoojaG
Yeah it’s a win-win for sure!

Great advice. Only problem was that I had trouble reading it because of the text colors! Please, a little more contrast between the background and the text color!
PoojaG
I’m so sorry about that and definitely working on changing it!

I love this post, mainly because I attempt to do almost everything on the list. However, I’m curious. how do you get to have over 100 people to like your post? I’m lucky if I can get at least 10 on a good day. Do you by any chance have tips for that 🙁
PoojaG
Thank you and I am working on a post about that be sure to check it out next week- around Thursday!
MaKupsy
I’ll certainly do so. Looking forward to reading it😊

great advice! Would you mind sharing how much time each day you spend reading and commenting on other blogs? It seems to take several hours a day for me to stay up with other blogs, and I don’t think I follow nearly as many as you. Thanks!
PoojaG
Thank you! I usually spend about 4 hours on WordPress but I don’t catch up with all the blogs I follow I tend to just read/comment on blogs that are active on mine or that are on the top of my reader.
Jim Borden
OK, thanks for the advice. Sounds like an effective approach.
PoojaG
Yeah it definitely saves time.
Jim Borden
I started doing this yesterday, and while it’s still a work in progress, it definitely helped.
PoojaG
That’s great to hear!

Hi- This is something I really need to work on, getting around more and reading other blogs on WordPress. Thanks for the like on my post earlier!! I just rebooted 3 months ago with a greater sense of purpose, so we’ll see where that journey takes me!!

I am dealing with a problem on my wordpress account..could you help me out?
PoojaG
Yeah what’s wrong
oddlymisplacedhere
So i just created an example.wordpress.com account which is supposed to be free and active. But wordpress says that it will stay a private account until i launch it i.e. untill i pay for the domain…
oddlymisplacedhere
I don’t know why is wordpress not making my site actice instead it has been asking me to pay to proceed further
PoojaG
That’s very odd it’s not supposed to do that. I’m not sure what’s wrong but I would contact WP support immediately.
