Certified Blogaholic

My blog is barely a year old and I am still trying to get as much readers as I can. I’ve read through all the tips to increase traffic. But the page rank slapping that Google has been giving to paid blogging has made it difficult to determine how the blog is doing in terms of traffic. It has been a blessing that Izea has created RealRank and SocialSpark. Now, I have a better chance of determining the blog’s progress.

Now, instead of focusing on page rank, I am determined to improve my RealRank. It is still low, but it is moving forward slowly. I have gained new friends from SocialSpark and will continue to make more. This will definitely improve the blog’s exposure. Then I discovered Zookoda which was one of the best tools that could help me get more readers. Zookoda enables the blogger to promote the blog with professional email notices informing readers when there is a new post. It is not meant to replace blog feeds but instead provides them with an alternative. Moreover, it will manage your email subscriptions by handling validation and verification. Zookoda also offers real time reports to keep the blogger informed about emails and visitor habits. It also manages all unsubscribes and keeps track of them in the mailing list.

Can you believe that the service is free? Yes, all functions within Zookoda are free! And I thought things were starting to look better. I was wrong — things are as perfect as it can be.
