We have all been there! We toil away our good night sleeps to create a Killer Blog and we’ve hit the publish button….expecting the likes, shares and comments to start rolling in. Instead, we soon realise there’s nothing !!

We see this phenomenon happening all the time with most us - Company Blogs, Product Blogs, Personal Blogs and it’s not hard to see why. In most instances, you’ll be competing with hundreds of other blogs for the attention of the same few readers.

To stand out you’ll often need to produce something truly exceptional- “Great Content” and making great content can require serious time and money, but that alone will not suffice! You would need to use different strategies/hacks out there to improve your blog readership, but nowadays the same old tricks aren’t working too!! You would need to do something new and innovative.

Today I want to share two new and innovative strategies using FaceBook Messenger. Both strategies are not hard to implement and bloggers have seen a significant increase in traffic, links and shares by implementing them. So let’s get started!

#Hack1 : Auto-BroadCast via FaceBook Messenger
