7 Additional Stupid But Extremely Effective Ways to Promote Your Blog! (Use it at Your Own Risk)

Who says blogging has to be boring? I am sure you realize that not everything is about making PPC ads, link building or on page SEO. For marketing to be effective, it has to be entertaining and as a blogger, if you’re not having fun with your work, you can be sure your audience is going to be…

Bored Out of
Their Minds !

With that said, here’s 7 more utterly stupid but remarkably effective and extremely fun ways to promote your blog.

1. Make a Silly Song and Post it On YouTube

I love Fiverr.com. It’s an incredibly useful site where people do the craziest stuff for you for five bucks. You can have someone actually jump off a plane and shout out your blog name or message as they’re diving.

Incredible Stuff !

Now, what I’ve found is, you can find people who will write you a song and even sing it for you in a video or an audio file. It’s fun stuff. Now, the one thing I’d recommend for you to do is go ahead and tell the the person who’s going to be doing it for you, that you’ll pay him a little extra if…

The Song is
Really Good !

When you do that, he’ll put in the extra effort to make sure your song is share worthy which will obviously cause your content to go viral, and if you think about it, even if you end up spending $20 on it instead of $5…

It’s Still a
Complete Steal !

It doesn’t take much for a song like that to go viral, as you’ll find out if you try this tip out.

2. Create Sexy Pocket Calendars and Hand Them Out

They really don’t have to be anything fancy. A small one page, pocket size calendar will be just fine. Make sure that when you design it, you put something eye catching on it and slap your URL all over the place. Now, for this to work, your URL needs to be catchy and easily memorable, but…

I’m Sure
You Already
Realize that !

3. Make Funny or Outrageous Videos

Again, it really doesn’t need to be anything too complicated. One of the most viral videos I’ve seen was a short clip of two little boys talking back and forth using baby language. Funny as heck, probably recorded on the fly and insanely viral. I’ve actually had multiple people send me that video…

Over a Very Short
Period of Time !

The one thing to keep in mind is that for your video to work, you actually need to feel comfortable in front of the camera. You see, if your viewers sense you’re weirded out and just pretending to have fun, you’re going to lose them very quickly. They’ll actually feel sorry for you instead of thinking…

You’re Funny !

Again, anything goes. As long as it’s not ridiculously gross or terribly off putting and you’re having fun doing it, your viewers will be just fine. A tip that Frank Kern gave for getting comfortable in front of the camera is pretending that it’s your best friend. Just imagine you’re talking to a great buddy of yours, and you’ll stop being camera-phobic (if that’s even a word)…

Almost Right Away !

4. Sending a Message to a Bunch of People

For some reason bloggers don’t like to email their friends and family members about their blog. They kind of tend to think their blog is for their traffic and they don’t share it with the real world, because they feel a bit strange about it. The point is, though, if you put something funny on your blog and you know your family or friends are going to like, they’ll send it to their friends…

Who’ll Eventually
Send it to Their Friends,
etc !

Before you know, you will have that huge group of people talking about your content.

Awesome Stuff !

5. Sending Someone an SMS

Most people have internet access on their phones. They use them to check their email, the weather, the stock market, their class schedule, to shop you name it. One of the things people like to do is text each other and send emails. It’s kind of funny that whenever a person gets on a train or a bus, they tend to instantly…

Take Their Phones Out and
Text Away !

Well, if you feel like promoting your blog, next time you want to send an SMS, apart from telling the person you’re writing what you actually want to say to them, go ahead and mention your blog. It’s as easy as saying oh, and BTW, check out my blog: http://www.thebadblogger.com/ (you need to make sure that you include a complete link in the text message, so that all they have to do to get to your site is click it)

Makes Sense ?

6. Creating an iPhone App

iPhone Apps are huge now. A good number of top marketers talk about them all the time. Did you know that you can have a simple app made for as little as a couple hundred bucks? It really is nothing when you consider the potential it has for your blog. Just make sure that every time people download and open it, there’s a splash page that invites them to check out your blog. This is an extremely powerful strategy that will work really well if you use it.

Give it a Shot !

7. Having a Sexy Babe Put Your URL On Her Cleavage

Do you remember how I told you about Fiverr.com at the beginning of this post? Well, another thing I like to use that site for is getting sexy girls to put my URL on their chests. It’s really easy for them to do and there’s a ton of great looking women willing to…

Write Something
On Their Body for
5 Bucks !

What they’ll normally do is take a marker and put your URL on their cleavage. Then they’ll take a picture of it and send it your way. What do you think is going to happen if you snail mail or even email that picture to your friends? Exactly!

They’re Going to
Go Check Out
Your Blog !

Alright, this is it. Before we part, though, I need to remind you that nothing happens until you take action, so go ahead and put what I told you to use. You’ll be more than happy you did.
