Advertising to draw visitors to your blog need not be expensive. In fact the authors of Becoming a Better Blogger say that you can get a sizable amount of traffic by spending just $5.
Buy a $5 StumbleUpon advertising campaign for your best post. $5 buys roughly 300 visitors. If some of those StumbleUpon visitors end up adding more votes to your article, the result could be a traffic snowball much larger than the one you paid for!
They even add a link to a great tutorial on Problogger for advertising on StumbleUpon. I have not done any advertising for this blog yet. Mostly because it is my online progress report for myself. I do hope that someone will learn something here though. The tutorial even offers tips on what kind of page that StumbleUpon users are interested in and one that will get them coming back with free traffic once enough people vote it up. A $5 advertising campaign is a great start though and gives you a lot of room to see what works and what doesn’t.
