How to market your blog with email signatures
I have been explaining different methods to market your blog and get some traffic for free. Just check how many emails do you send every day? Why don’t you use these emails that you sent to your clients to do some selling other than the content of the emails. Yes we can do that by adding an email signature to each mail that you send out. Every time when the recipient of your email gets your email, there will be a small text with a link to your blog web page. There are some chances that the recipient of that email may visit your blog. Its good to try it as you do not have anything to lose or you do not need to pay anybody
How to create an email signature?
You should not create big email signatures. A perfect email signature can be of 5-6 lines. I suggest to do as mentioned below
- Your name
- Your company name or blog name
- URL of your blog
- Your email ID
- A short message or an advertisement text
- Your phone number
Every email client has the feature to create email signature. You can create either as a plain text one or an html email signature with colours and images. You can mention some interesting features or your blog or if you have an offer, just mention it in the advertisement text. Suppose you give off some free e-books, you can mention that. You can also use email signatures in your profile for any forum or discussions. You can imagine how many visitors will visit such kind of forums and if your post is something different there are chances that the reader click on your blog URL and visit your blog. This is a sort of free traffic for your blog. Such visitor can even turn as your regular reader or even a customer if you are selling something.
How to create an email signature with outlook client?
I use MS outlook to read and send my emails.
Its very simple, go to Tools->Option and in that mail format, you will find the signature button. Create a signature and save it. You can find more information about creating an email .So to conclude, you should use email signatures with each and every email that you send out as its free advertisement and you do not have to do anything extra other than creating one. I would also suggest to keep changing your signatures periodically so that your email signature looks fresh and do some marketing for you.

Kala, you need to have good content on your website. Do not go for just some search results, it will spoil your blog. Create good content to attract regular visitors or you will get visitors with high bounce rate. You need to have sufficient content and needs to be updated frequently to keep the blog fresh. Every time when a visitor comes to your blog, he / she should find something new and interesting

Jayant, first you need to create a blog, you should not reveal you bank details on any website. Make sure that the website is a secure website and also with reputation and reliability. Also do not give your credit card details. For making online payment, I suggest to use paypal so that you do not need to disclose your credit card number. Just create a paypal account and get it verified using your credit card. You can use paypal to send and receive money.
