Posting same story in multiple blogs. Also known as spamming, this is not allowed since it interferes with other customers' enjoyment of Blogit.
Publicity. Here are some suggestions that may help increase your blog's readership, which in turn helps improve rankings and earnings:
* Initially, add posts to a single blog, instead of creating multiple blogs. Readers will be more likely to remember your blog's name.
* Post frequently, at least once a day if possible. Recently updated blogs will appear on the home page under New Posts, and are also more likely to appear in Featured Blogs.
* Split long posts into several shorter ones. Many online readers prefer to read shorter posts.
* Read and comment on other writers' posts. Interested readers will click your nickname to read your blogs, and the blog's author may recommend your blog.
* When a post receives comments, it is likely that the topic appeals to readers. Consider writing on similar topics.
* To appeal to different groups of readers, write multiple blogs on different topics.
While Blogit automatically ensures that your writing shows up as an excerpt when someone does a Google search on that topic you will have most success when you promote your writing both on and off Blogit.
Let friends and family know that you're writing on Blogit. If you read other writers or blogs outside of Blogit, link to their work and ask them to link back to your Blogit blogs.
And finally make sure you use the Referral Program to sign up new subscribers who're mostly interested in your work. This will ensure that you'll receive the Referral bonus for each qualified subscriber (currently $10 for each new Blogit member) as well as a reader mostly interested in your work (and thus contributing a significant part of their monthly subscription to your earnings).
