As a SEO, link builder or whatever you might want to call it, I usually start building links and traffic for my blog through article submission, directory submission, joining forums related to my theme, exchanging links with fellow bloggers, and submitting articles or blogpost to social bookmarking or social networking sites like delicious, digg, myspace and many more. If you are a blogger, you have probably done this type of marketing.

So how do you gain more traffic to your blog? The answer is email marketing. Email marketing has been around for a long time and I think it’s one of the most effective ways to increase traffic. Not just some useless traffic but targeted traffic. I said targeted traffic because most of your visitors are probably subscribers that have the same interest as you are. I found a great site called Zookoda which does the email marketing job for you. I actually learned this from my brother in which he uses Zookoda for his article directory to manage his growing subscribers. Although Zookoda was designed specifically for bloggers, it can also be used with article directories or news sites that needs to update their users or subscribers about their latest articles or news. You can even schedule a broadcast to automatically update your subscribers.

Signing up with Zookoda is very easy and completely free. You can learn more about this great service by visiting www.zookoda.com.
