As a blogger, I’m always searching for new and creative ways to get my blog content out there for even more folks to find. As you know, the majority of my traffic comes from SEO & Pinterest, however, I’ve recently begun exploring additional traffic sources such as blog directories. One of the most recent directories I’ve been looking at is MK Blog Directory. MK Blog Directory is a directory where bloggers submit their websites and they’re displayed based on categories on the site to help folks find your content easily!
For example, when you search the directory by let’s say “home and garden” you’re presented with an incredible list of blogs that are dedicated to that area, and can easily click the link to explore their bio and website link. It’s an incredibly easy site to navigate and offers advertising, guest posts, and sponsorship opportunities for bloggers.
How can a Blog Directory Benefit my site?
Pinterest is a great traffic source but can take quite a bit of work and consistent learning to adapt as needed to platform updates. SEO takes work with researching keywords and keeping up with the latest Google updates to appease the search engines. With a blog directory, those efforts aren’t needed. The site will be continuing to promote your content to those searching without you needing to do any additional work. The best part? It’s free!
This site will help drive more traffic to your blog, as well as help you find other creatives and bloggers to connect with and grow and build your own network! Mohamad, who created the MK Blog Directory, is a passionate web designer who wants to help promote blog content and help connect folks to the content they’re looking for. This site is a human-moderated site, and it shows Mohamad’s care and vision for helping create such an incredible space for bloggers to help each other!
Can I Add My Site?
Yes, you can very easily! You just need to go to the Submit My Blog page and select a blog category. Then you put in some information about your blog and website so it can be categorized correctly within the database. Within about 48 hours of submission, your site will be reviewed and if approved then placed into the directory for others to discover. Once your site is added there is nothing more you need to do. The directory will drive people to your site for days, months, and even years to come!
What happens if I want to edit my directory information? No worries, you can send an email to directory@mohamadkarbi.com using the email you used to submit your blog URL with the required updates or delete requests. So, if your site, niche, or content change you can update it if needed to help your site remains categorized correctly.
Summary
I myself have submitted my own blog, Simply Alex Jean, to the directory and am eager and excited to see what traffic is brought about by this directory in the future. If you’re a new blogger just starting out and still learning more about how to get more traffic, this is a fantastic opportunity for you to learn from other bloggers and get your blog out there! As someone who has been blogging for some time now, I am eager and excited to see the additional traffic this can bring in, and to start checking out other blogs as well!
