One of the most frequently asked questions is how to boost page views on a blog. For context, one of my commercial blog, developed by my team. Paddedvibez , typically garners about 190,000 page views per month, with peaks reaching 500k . Our lower months average around 100,000 views. I’ve learned what works (and what doesn’t) to drive traffic. Here, I’ll share key insights, from technical strategies to platform recommendations worth your time.
Technical Strategies to Increase Page Views
1. Focus on SEO
If you’re simply writing blog posts based on spontaneous ideas, your chances of success drop significantly. Instead, prioritize SEO (Search Engine Optimization). In simple terms, SEO helps Google and social media platforms understand what your content is about, making it more discoverable for users searching for that information.
Research SEO thoroughly—watch YouTube tutorials, read guides, and study how to optimize your posts. For instance, every word I use is intentional, with SEO strategies guiding everything from my post structure to email list-building methods.
SEO isn’t a quick fix; however, with consistency, it will steadily grow your page views.I make use of tools like ahrefs keywords research tool and semrush simultaneously. If you want a video tutorial on our YouTube channel on how to achieve this, comment “Make a video about this”
2. Write for Your Reader, Not Yourself
Every blog post should cater to your audience’s needs. For example, instead of titling a post “My Skincare Routine,” opt for something like “12 Best Skincare Products Every Girl Needs.” While the content may be similar, the latter focuses on what readers are looking for, increasing engagement and clicks.
Titles play a significant role in enticing readers. I recommend analyzing successful sites out there or study Paddedvibez.com and minsjohnfrancis.com post structure to understand effective title strategies that draw traffic. Titles designed to spark curiosity and provide value will always outperform self-centered content.
Platforms That Drive Traffic
1. Pinterest
Pinterest is a must for bloggers—it’s unique in that users actively click to visit websites. For example, few of my sites gets good views solely from Pinterest pins📌 It’s been a game-changer since the early days of my blog. I use a precise strategy involving Pinterest SEO, pin design, and pinning frequency.
For a deeper dive, our Patreon.com/Paddedvibez vip contents covers all aspects of my successful approach. If your browser fails to access Patreon, download winscribe VPN app and turn it on to have access to the vip membership.
2. Instagram
While Instagram fosters community and brand loyalty, it’s not great for driving traffic. In fact, only 1% of my blog traffic comes from Instagram. If you’re just starting out, I’d suggest focusing your efforts elsewhere unless you have the broadcast feature.
If you have upto 10,000 Instagram followers, then Instagram will automatically open this feature for you. It’s called instagram broadcast channel and I have made a full video on how to create it here.
With the broadcast channel, you have the opportunity to build huge followers and you can begin getting traffic from this broadcast channel.
3. YouTube
Contrary to my initial assumptions, YouTube has proven to be a strong traffic source. However, to drive visits to your site, you must provide an incentive, such as free downloads or resources tied to your content. This approach can effectively turn casual viewers into blog readers.
4. TikTok
I’m still experimenting with TikTok. While its potential for rapid growth is clear, it currently lacks seamless ways to drive traffic directly to your blog. Users typically exit the app and perform separate searches, which may not benefit your site traffic. But if you’re strategic enough, you can gain huge traffic to your blog just by telling them to click the link on your blo, or dm to get the link . But ensure your video ends with these call to action so as to attract blog visitors.
Final Recommendations for New Bloggers
When starting a blog, prioritize SEO, Facebook and Pinterest. I didn’t add Facebook to the list because i have made several post on that, you can check out other blogs on this page. YouTube can be valuable once you have more resources and content. Instagram and TikTok can come later as supplementary platforms but aren’t as effective initially.
Building a successful blog takes patience and consistent effort. It may take days of hard work before you see significant traffic, but with a focus on optimizing for search engines and leveraging the right platforms, you can achieve sustainable growth, with 1000 to 20,000 page views you can earn from $100 to $1000 and above.
