Gaining Readership
« kentuckyvotes.org | Main | More Bad News for Yarmuth »Brian Goetll from conservativeedge.com focused on three ways for growing your readership and make an impact.
First thing you have to do is your research. Places like kentuckyvotes.org are great resources to do that research. Call people involved in the stories and try to talk to them. You get better information and get them to read your site.
Secondly, you can use the MSM to get the information. You can take a story and read between the lines to view the issues from a conservative perspective. You can raise points that aren't being raised by the main stream media.
Lastly we need to cross link each other. Help each other out to make the entire community stronger.
David Adams from KentuckyProgress added to Brian's comments by saying that we as bloggers need to work with the media and help them to get out stories they may not have otherwise covered.
It is about contacts. Reaching out to people on both sides of the isle to get the story. You need to make it fun to blog on a daily basis.
And that is the key to gaining readership. Blogging on a daily basis is the promary way to getting people to come back again and again.
