Heard that some sites are popular even though the content is not fantastic. The popularity is solely based on the site owner's participation in online communities.

But serious, I've not seen a site without good content to be really popular. Have you?

I think simply having good, unique content that is well written is key. Of course you have to have links and have been around for a while, but if you want to increase your popularity you have to distinguish yourself from the billions of other blogs out there. Depending on your niche, this can be very hard or only mildly hard. But popularity is based on readers, so if you are not providing what readers are looking for, then no matter what it will never be a popular blog.

I have to agree with Flash and others abourt unique content.

We were the first to write about a new solar charged lawn mower this spring and I was astounded at the number of hit's that our site received. Environmental is 'in' these days, but mostly its the same old story about weather stripping, caulking, high efficiency this and that.

Solar is also in where everyone and their uncle has written about the latest solar panels.

So what is unique? Solar charged lawn mowers. A local TV station even pickup up our story and ran with it (but not crediting us at all of course ... they had to be seen as if they came across it! ).

Solar exterior shades are also unique in certain parts. That has caused us a lot of visitors as well.

Then again, who would have believed that an article on colour coordination, one on removing kitchen bulkheads and most recently an article on using butterfly plugs for a drop ceiling vent cover would also be high volume articles.

So, in short, yes unique content for 'in' topics.

Hi,
In my point of view to make a Blog More Popular we have to look thing like :-

Deep blog networking. (Linking to other blog posts)

Unique content (providing what readers are looking for)

Getting actively involved with different forums (like this one)

Some times Be controversial also help man.

Be controversial – having a boring corporate site isn’t always the best way to become popular. Sometimes you need to upset 95% of the world just to get the attention of the other 5%. After all, having 5% of the population loving your site isn’t a bad goal to have.

I like the point about social media networks (by our admin)
Social media is the process of promoting your site or business through social media channels and it is a powerful strategy that will get you links, attention and massive amounts of traffic. (low-cost promotional method) .

Be help full to your reader & at list say "thanks" to them for their comments.( just like the admin of bloggearies, just check this forum coolly you will notices that admin is actively participating with members this is really good ) So that your reader fell good & like to give you more comments .
