Advice on promoting a blog
-
Hi i am working on a new blog and would like to know if there are any sites where i can publish part of the new blog to gain traffic to my main blog.
What i am looking at is, to publish part of a news story and then have people come to my main site after reading some of the new story.
I have come across accidentally a couple over a year ago but cannot locate them now. I want people to be able to come to my site and read the whole story and then hopefully tell their friends.
Also can anyone recommend decent social bookmarking sites that have a do follow on them to promote my blog please.

Hi Diane,
As you said get connected to various blogging publishing platforms that form part of a network which shares you content in a non-threatening way.
Added to this, look at using a system like twitterfeed. Twitterfeed is a great way to share content across many social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook and much much more with the click of a button. The moment you post it, its gets shared across many. I have setup one of my blogs to spread news across over 150 platforms.
I would also recommend contacting some top bloggers and sending them mail, to see if they can promote it. get the big boys involved and the rest will fall into place.
Get in touch with the community and give some guest blogggers to post and contribute and you can do the same.
get listed on blog directories such as bloogz.com,kinja.com, bloggeries.com, bloghub.com, blogarama.com and technorati.com to name a few. Get started now
Let me know if this helps.

Will Adding Publish Date at end of Page Title for Blog posts Hurt SEO?
I'd like to be able to easily track blog posts by month but in Google reports when you set a date range obviously older blog post still appear and with amount of blog posts we generate without seeing the date in the title it's not obvious what was published and when it was published. For example if a Blog Title was "/dangers-of-sharing-KM-knowledge-01-11-15 would it hurt SEO? The reason is I'd like to have a quick way to know how new posts do each month compared to older content

Hard-working newbie question: benefit of moving my blog to my online store's domain?
Hi all, I've been running an online wine store in Switzerland for a month and have been working hard on SEO (I love learning about it). Anyway, for a couple of years prior to launching the store, I had been running a wine blog whose articles are ranking well in Google. I now want to link the two. My questions are: A) will the addition of the blog (store.com/blog) contribute to the store's domain authority (currently, the blog authority is higher than the site authority)? B) technically, can I 301 the whole blog to store.com/blog? Any help and tips would be appreciated. Thank you!

Putting blog excerpts in footer of every page?
I have roughly 150 non-blog pages and 500 articles in my blog. The footer of every non-blog page includes excerpts from 3 blog posts selected at random from the inventory of 500. The posts in the footer of each page change with every page refresh. So, if you scroll to the bottom of any non-blog page, you'll see about 85 words for each of 3 randomly selected blog posts, with a link to the source article in the blog section of my site. Each page will link to 3 different posts. One of my objectives is to drive visitors to some older blog content that has become buried deep in the archives over the years. Question 1: In a post-Panda/Penguin world, is this a good or bad technique? Question 2: Should the links to the full content in the blog use rel="nofollow"? Without it, the internal link structure for this part of the site looks pretty crazy and random - I assume nofollow would help make things look more orderly (and prevent my main non-blog pages from passing excess link juice to my blog). Thoughts or comments?
