And I know that many visitors have become frequent visitors. Every day around 340 visitors is not bad for a personal blog. Many bloggers would like to have that many. All I can say to them: take care for your SEO, good content and be yourself in writing your stories. Thanks to all readers and those who like expatinthephilippines.com Here are also my pages on: facebook .

I myself just went over 100,000 hits so I know how it makes you feel.
When you first start out you don't think you're even going to make it to 1000 because it takes so long, but with a little patience and work, it eventually does.
I like your site too and visit it often.</li><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/many-visitors-on-expatinthephilippines/">January 28, 2011</a>, Jan writes: Hi John,
Thanks for leaving this reply. A blogger like us should continuesly try to improve the seo for the website. And write new content on a regular basis. Only that way visitors new visitors will come and old ones keep on coming back.
I check a lot of expat sites in the Philippines regularely, yours too.</li><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/many-visitors-on-expatinthephilippines/">February 9, 2011</a>, <a href='http://texaninthephilippines.com' rel='external nofollow' class='url'>John Jackson</a> writes: Speaking of getting more traffic...do you know anything about these things?  Would you be interested in it?  I wonder if it really would help improve traffic?

1. Secret blogging clubs

A major and underutilized way to get traffic to a blog is by joining secret blogging groups or clubs. Very few people are using this particular method, but it can be very effective if you focus your efforts on it.

Secret blogging clubs consists of a group of bloggers with one aim: to help each other spread the word about their blogs with a view to generating traffic for each others’ blogs. The concept is simple: you join a club with around 50 members, share each others’ post with your fans and followers (around once a week), and this will generate more traffic, since it exposes your blog to a wider audience.

You dont need to worry about spamming and the likes, because groups like these are heavily moderated. Also, it is not necessary to share every link that is posted to the group—you only need to share the links related to your niche, that you feel are valuable.

A great example of an effective secret blogging club is the DailyBlogTips Retweet Club by Daniel Scocco. A post of mine that went viral through a secret blogging club was my guest post on getting more blog comments—it presently has 97 comments and 87 retweets on a site that averages 15 retweets and 40 comments per post.

I have visited this club you mentioned.
But I need 500 twitter followers.....  I don't have any yet ......

But a good SEO also helps a lot, and commenting on other websites too.</li></ul><hr /><h2>Related posts:</h2><ul><li><a href="http://www.expatinthephilippines.com/visitors-in-your-house/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: visitors in your house">visitors in your house</a><br />How can you see that there are visitors in your house?
