Hi Friend
Positioning yourself in front of your target audience.
This is the 3rd step in driving that organic traffic to your blog.
It's a big step, too, because it is the one that makes your blogging brand… your "personal brand"…
take root shine emerge profit
Step 3 - Over time (I told you organic traffic will cost you time instead of money)…
Over time, invite people from other blogs and social sites to a blog post you wrote "just for them."
In other words, a blog post you've published that specifically solves a key problem they have.
So, you might write a blog post called “6 Foolproof ways to keep critters out of your organic garden.”
I know you can find a better title, but you see the point?
Solve a problem for the people in your organic farmer crowd.
If you can solve their problems, they will begin to see you as someone to follow.
Remember, they probably saw a link to your post when they were on one of the "big guys" blogs or social sites.
But now…
They will then join your email list for more great solutions from you.
They will read your blog.
They’ll start following and engaging with you on social media.
So here's what you've got.
Readers are not just “readers.”
Traffic is not just “traffic.”
They are all people… real people, with real problems.
They want to connect with other real people who are helpful, sincere, amusing, fun… whatever.
They've been following some of the "big guys" in your niche.
But they saw you there.
Interacting.
Commenting.
Sharing.
Linking to your posts.
So you did your homework…
You reached out to them and demonstrated from your conversations and blog posts, that…
you are one of those people who can help them solve their problems.
you are one of the "big guys".
And you are available to help them have a better life. even if it’s something as small as keeping critters out of their gardens.
Once you get to this point, then you can consider all the other “traffic techniques” and maybe put them to the test, one at a time.
But this should get you going.
In fact, it should forever be the most important thing you do to keep traffic rolling your way.
Talk Soon,

PS: If you haven't already…
As early as possible, get an autoresponder and start building an email list.
This is how you get to build a database of people interested in what you’re blogging about.
This is how you keep in touch with them, let them know each time you write a new blog post (ie., drive “traffic” to it), engage them with your ideas, and yes, even sell things to them that are related to your niche.
Start an email list!
