I have not done a Blog Hop in awhile! But, Crazy For Books is an amazing book blog that does these weekly Book Blog Hop's for Book Blogs all over the internet! There is a question for the Book Bloggers' to answer and their readers can answer as well. It helps other Book Bloggers meet others who blog and enjoy the same genre of books they do!
This week's question is:
How do you spread the word about your blog?
(e.g. Social Networking sites, Book Blog Directories, comments on other blogs...)
My answer: I spread my word about my blog by mostly befriending other blogs that are the same as my blog or deal with a topic I'm interested in. (Cupcakes, books, movies, Twilight, etc) Also, I've learned to do contests and giveaways on my blog to reel people in. Some of my readers are from other blogs who have won one of my ILYB Awards. I have also started accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and Goodreads. So, I have different ways I try and spread the word on my blog but mostly I try to just find new ways to get people to read and meet other bloggers who give me AH-mazing advice on what to do to gain readers!
Comment and tell me your answer!
P.S. Any blog who I visit or comes to my blog from the Hop, I add to my Blog Hop Buddy list!
Peace and Fangs,
Alisha
Visiting from the Blogger Hop, even though I didn't do a post myself this week--just has been crazy busy and I forgot all about it!
ReplyDeleteI registered in a book blog directory and promote my blog on Twitter and Facebook as well as participate in forums now and then. Usually, I just try to be nice to other bloggers and comment. I share links to specific posts if they relate to something I read on another blog. Entrecard helps get some new readers too. I also participate in some memes.
Dropping by from the Hop!
ReplyDeleteI pretty much did what you did to promote (Twitter, FB, Goodreads). I also recently started doing giveaways. I love your idea of ILYB Awards! I just started implementing regular features on my blog in the hopes that people might visit again. One of these is to ask a question at the beginning of the month to book bloggers; I post the responses with links on the last Thursday of the month. This month's question has to do with scary stories, so if you feel like participating I think you'd have an interesting response. Happy Hopping!
