After I publish this blog post I will share it with human beings who found me and trust me through my blog content.
The offsite origin of these trusting human beings matters not because whether you read the post through my email list, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn or carrier pigeon, I know that my loyal readers will enjoy the content and some will share it with like-minded bloggers who spread my word with more like-minded bloggers.
The numbers consistent with these human beings are about as relevant as an honest, upstanding, purely altruistic individual in politics.
This is because numbers don’t do anything on a level of form but loyal human beings are part of a successful blogging equation.
How do you attract these type of loyal followers to you who’d run through a brick wall to read your latest blog post?
Driving organic blog traffic by publishing targeted, detailed content first on site then off site is the only way to do it.
Why Organic Traffic Wins
This is why organic blog traffic wins. This is why organic blog traffic is the best form of blog traffic. This is why organic traffic is so incredibly important to your online business success.
Organic traffic literally vets human beings who follow your blog. People who arrive based on the quality, detail and targeted form of your content definitely want the content. At the end of the day, these are the only humans who you want to serve because they will follow you with loyally, buy your stuff, hire you, endorse you and grow your referral business.
What about inorganic blog traffic?
Inorganic blog traffic flows to you based on manipulation, coercing and other forms of seeming control which try to get people to visit your blog versus the organic method of attracting highly targeted humans based on mastering the skill of publishing thorough, highly targeted contact.
Inorganic methods always focus on chasing numbers. Sometimes, the numbers appear to be somewhat targeted human beings but usually the numbers are random folks who are a shot in the dark, meaning that you have absolutely no idea if they’re interested in your blog or not.
Not only is inorganic traffic foolish to chase, it will waste many thousands of hours of your blogging life because it is incredibly inefficient, ineffective and not at all intelligent. Why chase strangers when you can attract loyal readers, customers and clients with every single blogging action?
Inorganic Traffic Makes No Sense
Inorganic traffic makes no sense because chasing individuals to come to your blog is perhaps the ultimate waste of time since no thought, targeting and vetting goes into the process at all.
Typically, bloggers will join huge groups on social media filled with random strangers which they did not build up organically from day one. Such strategies waste your time because these inorganic communities, even if there’s 100,000 members, you did not cultivate from day one with targeted, detailed content that you published.
Those 100,000 members showed up for dozens of reasons which have nothing to do with trusting your thorough content.
Do you now see why nobody likes your updates, comments on your updates or visits your blog from any of these groups?
This is the curse of inorganic traffic.
This also underscores why content is your best friend because when you create something helpful it attracts loyal readers, customers and clients who arrive based on your skills, helpfulness and thoroughness.
Creating content is the way to drive organic blog traffic but you need to keep at it consistently for quite a while in order to hit the mark.
Nobody succeeds organically, quickly, because it takes a long time to master the skill of creating content which boosts your credibility and targeted exposure to the point of thriving with your community and online business.
Most bloggers panic, quit on driving organic traffic and scramble towards inorganic methods which waste their time, energy and precedes eventual quitting.
Wise bloggers know that organic traffic is not only the best but the only way to generate passive success and live a life of freedom by creating an asset.
Frame Your Blog as an Asset
Your blog is an asset. Build it patiently with detailed content for a targeted reader. Gradually, that blog will work for you while you sleep or spend time offline and even while you spend time online too.
Blogs work for you while you do other stuff only if your sole goal is to drive pure organic traffic passively through publishing a steady volume of detailed content consistently.
Both on-site and off-site content factor into organic traffic because there usually needs to be a way to draw individuals from off-site sources to your blog.
Never rely only on Google because the algorithm behaves in highly unstable fashion at times and only yields results after you’ve consistently proven your blog by publishing in-depth content for a long time.
Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, guest blogging and genuine blog commenting are wise means for building something meaningful in the off-site realm because even though you still need to exhibit patience you better believe that traffic will flow more quickly from these off-site sources compared to Google.
Tens of millions of bloggers are not trying to game these other outside sources as they are Google so the control structures are not as rigid through these platforms.
But you still need to create a hefty volume of quality, targeted content consistently to these channels in order to gradually drive organic traffic to your blog.
Of course, publishing long form content serves as the granite-like foundation for your blog. Every time out you want to solve a pressing problem for your highly targeted reader with perhaps a 1500 word or longer post, or at least in that ballpark.
Be highly practical. Add as many tips as possible to deliver on the title promise. Help readers thoroughly. Give them steps, tips or reasons as you guide them on their journey.
These are the types of blog posts that really draw in loyal readers because organic traffic flows to truly helpful bloggers who publish in-depth content regularly.
Organic traffic originates from skills development and the number one skill is the publish really good, detailed content consistently. Being truly helpful is the only way to go because it ensures that people who follow your blog really want your content, products and services and gladly grow your referral business with their like-minded tribes.
This concept makes total sense when you give yourself 5 minutes to think about it but most never do that so they chase after inorganic, manipulative methods which draw random strangers, no loyal followers, and no online business of course.
Everything depends on your total commitment to driving organic traffic which is the source of loyal blogging communities, thriving online businesses and worldly freedom.
Make Organic Traffic Your Chief Goal

Release all other strategies.
