Use Word-of-Mouth Promotion to Boost Blog Traffic
This guest post is by Jeszlene Zhou of First Communication Job. I love the idea of using a blog as your personal hub, and how it creates a centralised space for all your social media sites, your portfolio, and more. Most bloggers and social media professionals promote a link to their blog or website, and shamelessly direct traffic towards their personal hub.

Are You Defining Your Niche Properly?
This guest post is by Charles Manfre of CodeConquest.com. When I started my blog, I made the mistake of not defining my niche well enough. In fact, I defined it with one word: “coding.” Defining the niche my blog targeted with one word was never going to be enough. Perhaps for the pioneers of the internet it was okay, but in this day and age, with millions of websites in the competition, you need more than a one-word topic name for a niche. I can’t emphasize how important it is to define your…
