4) Any idea how to get instate fast traffic on blog ?

I have many guides that on my blog that provide guidance for traffic generation. I don’t think there is a quick solution though. You have to work at anything to get great results.

You also have to give it time as it is rare to get instant traffic unless you spend money on paid ads.

5) In your view, why do most bloggers fail ?

I think they don’t take the time to do things right. Most bloggers expect to make income and get tons of traffic without spending the time to write exceptionally good content.

Once you build up your traffic you can then worry about monetization. But without great content you won’t get a lot of traffic.

6) What is the biggest blogging mistake you have done ?

When I first started off I didn’t have articles that were as in-depth as they are now. I was blogging for fun. Now I blog more for a purpose.

The in-depth articles is what helps me increase my overall long tail search traffic, social shares, and overall visitor loyalty. It takes time to create content like that, but in the end it works out best.

7) What is the role of SEO in the success or failure of a Blog ?

SEO plays a major role in overall success of any blogging venture. It’s all about getting everything right and optimized, also having the right internal linking structure before you begin and blogging.

You also want to make sure your URLs are search engine friendly as this kind of stuff can really hurt you if you have to change it later down the road.

8) From where you got the inspiration? Mention the Name of your favorite blogger and blogs ?

I have been inspired by many people. One is my co-founder Hiten Shah. He has always guided me in the right direction. Another is Andy Liu who has been a great mentor. And best of all, I get a lot of inspiration from all of my readers.

9) Which is your Favorite Quote ?

If you want more social traffic make sure you place scroll share buttons on your blog like Sharebar.
