You’ve just hit “Publish.” Your blog post is out in the world…
Now what?
Instead of sitting around waiting for traffic to magically appear (spoiler: it won’t), here are 10 super easy and real-life ways to share your post—even if you hate promoting yourself.
Let’s make sure people actually read your awesome content 👇
1. Share It to Your Instagram Stories (Add a Poll or Question!)
Instead of just “New post! Link in bio,” make it fun. Ask your followers:
👉 “Ever struggled with ___?” or
👉 “Want to learn how I ___?”
Add your link + a poll or sticker to make it interactive.
2. Post It in Facebook Groups (The Right Way)
Find groups in your niche—not random ones.
Instead of spamming your link, share a tip from your blog post, then say:
👉 “I wrote more about this if anyone wants to check it out.”
Boom. Helpful, not spammy.
3. Turn It Into a Quick TikTok or Reel
Film a 15-second video with a hook:
🎥 “I used to struggle with ____, until I figured out this one thing…”
End with: “Full story on my blog, link’s in bio.”
People love bite-sized tips!
4. Email Your List (Even If It’s Small)
Subject line: “You’ll love this if you ___.”
In the email, give a sneak peek of what they’ll learn and link them to read more.
Your email list = golden traffic.
5. Share It on Threads or Twitter
Post a key takeaway from your blog post and ask a question.
Example:
“I finally figured out how to get blog traffic without going viral. Curious?”

6. Pin It to Pinterest (Create 2–3 Pins)
Pinterest = blog post traffic goldmine.
Use Canva to make 2–3 pins for the same post with different headlines.
Example pin titles:
✅ “How I Got My First 1K Blog Views in 7 Days”
✅ “No One Read My Blog—Until I Did This”
7. DM It to 3 Friends Who’d Find It Helpful
No shame! Text or DM a few people who’d love your post and say:
“Hey, thought of you when I wrote this—hope it helps!”
Real readers, real support.
8. Turn It Into a Carousel Post on Instagram or LinkedIn
Break down 3 key tips from your blog post into slides.
Slide 1: “How to Get Blog Traffic Without Going Viral”
Slide 2: Tip 1… etc.
End with: “Want more? Full post’s on my blog.”
9. Answer a Question on Quora or Reddit
Find a question your blog post answers.
Give a genuine answer, then say: “I went deeper into this here if you want to check it out [link].”
Adds value + traffic.
10. Schedule Reposts (Don’t Share Once and Forget It)
Use a free scheduler like Buffer or Later to re-share your post weekly for 1 month.
Change the caption each time—highlight different tips or takeaways.
Final Tip: Don’t Overthink It—Just Share It
Your blog won’t grow in silence. People want helpful, fun, real content.
So go share it like the helpful genius you are 🙌
