Obviously, to get your blog out there it needs to be updated on a regular basis, if it's not it will be shortly add to the long list of in active blogs.
Here is a few more things which can help get your blog on top 10 lists;
1) Blog Layout -
Make sure your blog is well designed and readable, obviously if it's a blog about musicals add multimedia such as videos and images in order to illustrate your points as well add extra interest.
2) Search Engine Optimisation -
50% of page views come from the search engine site Google. As you know if you search for something on Google it can produce millions of results for example type in 'blogs on musicals' and there are 7,210,000 results. To get the most views, you will need your blog to get on to at least the second page and work up to the first.
Some of the ways to achieve this can be using key words for example if your writing an article on Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats,
be sure to use the words, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Cats in your headlines.
3) Using Social Media to optimise your blog -
Most people in this modern era have either a Facebook or Twitter account, not including the various others
available. With an RSS button allowing for people to subscribe directly to the blog, why not also use Facebook
etc to share your blog with friends. They may not have a real interest in your subject but may know people who do.
4) Other Ways -
So, yes your blog may be online but your marketing does not have to stop to being web based. Other ideas
is printing out posters, flyers and even stickers. You could even get business card printed with your blog address
on and give them out to people. With the advantage of printing out leaflets if you go to see a show you could leave
them around the theatre telling people to check out the review you'll be writing about the production.
