Our 30 day article challenge started on Aug. 9 2010 is successfully completed today. A few things we have learned that will help you drive more visitors to your website.
10 Blog Writing Tips

You know the old saying “don’t get ahead of yourself”? Well when it comes to blog writing you can throw that saying out the window and replace it with “get ahead of yourself”. I found the farther ahead you are in your blog posting schedule the better you write.
Although I just had a short amount of time to delve into the web statistics of this 30 day article challenge, I can tell you the results were well worth the effort involved. We have seen an increase on all of our visitor statistics in Google Analytics.
The statistics for today will not be registered in Google Analytics till tomorrow. So, it would not be prudent to give you statistic numbers for only 29 days of the 30 day challenge. Tomorrow we will list the final results. You will be able compare the numbers for yourself and come to your own conclusions.
We found that by successfully completing our 30 day article challenge it has helped us not only in the rankings but the listings of where we place in Google. The information I give you tomorrow will help clarify if it’s in your best interest to try your own challenge, to increase your exposure within search engines.
