My Blog = My Life + social networking

Over the next two weeks, I'll be focusing on a few things you need to have setup if you want to attract as many long-term followers to your blog as possible. In my opinion, there are five major ways that people will subscribe to follow your blog. Neglecting any of these methods will leave a percentage of your potential followers behind since some people only follow via each of these methods.

The first and most important "following platform" that every blogger should have setup is a Facebook Page for their blog. Setting up a Facebook Page is easy. Simply go to http://www.facebook.com/pages, then click the "Create Page" button in the top right corner.

For some reason, a lot of bloggers think that Twitter is the most important thing they can focus on when it comes to driving blog traffic, and we will cover that in the next post, but let me promise you this. If utilized consistently and correctly, nothing will bring you as much traffic as a solid Facebook Page.
