Just scroll down to read the numbering points which tell the benefits of blogging communities. And if you have enough time, then continue reading here to perform well with your blog through community blogging.
For every online business, proper promotion is essential to reach the success. Same case is applicable for the bloggers too, as it needs genuine promotion of blog posts to thrive in blogging. I know, every blogger knows that the social networking tools are the best one to promote their blog posts. Next to that, they should be aware of blogging communities too.
You may think why?
Yes, there are countless blogs are already performing well with high page rank and it is tough for the newbies to place their blog posts in good place on search engines. Even the fresh bloggers in the blogosphere knows that “King of the blog is its content” and if it is unseen, then? The efforts taken by the bloggers to create a good search engine optimized content would become useless. To avoid these suspicions, the bloggers should take part in blogging communities and can build quality backlinks with it.

Hi Nirmala,
You are so right – blogging communities are indeed the right place all of us should head for 🙂
With Google coming up with it’s updates every second day, one can’t only rely on the search engines or Google for our traffic, and this is the time our friends on these communities reach out and connect. The power of such communities is tremendous.
Besides helping each other out, especially in time of need – they are great ways to make new connection and build relationships too, which I feel is something every blogger must go ahead and do. Even if people aren’t from your own niche – just reaching out and connecting with them – will always help you in the long run.
Speaking of myself, after having joined a number of such communities, I’ve seen my content reaching across a wider audience – even to those who aren’t bloggers as such. I think they rock!
Thanks for sharing this with us. Have a nice weekend as well 🙂
Well said Harleena!
Yes, forming community and becoming friends are essential for all the bloggers to get appreciation from them at anytime.
After publishing the new post, I never think about search engines but I do expect shares, likes n +1 from my friends. I really got encouraged with those activities from my friends and performing blogging satisfactorily.
I do the same and required for my friends before they ask. Hope after some years if we see the English meaning of Blogger in dictionary we would see the word “helper”. Yes, every blogger should be a helper to get more exposure in the blogosphere.
While hearing the word “help”, am just thinking Atish in my mind. He is such a genuine helping tendency guy, who had provided his great support for me to do blogging. He keep on encouraging me to do well by teaching required stuffs.
Just think, his blog with PR4 n mine is baby blog with PR0, When I told him that no one is ready to accept my Guest post as am a newbie, he was the one who accepted it without hesitation.
Feeling proud to say, now the bloggers are waiting for my guest post and seriously no time to write for them. Will do my best for them soon 🙂
Yeah, am the one who share n tweet your posts rarely due to my time constraint 🙂
Thanks for coming n commenting Harleena, keep doing it.
Hey mam.
Great post. I think you should have mentioned about our new community. What do you say? 🙂
Thanks for commenting here Amal!
Yes, it will be placed with a good review after it grows 🙂
Will take part in its growth 😛
Hi Nirmala,
This will be my first comment on this blog.
You have covered the benefits of the blogging communities very well. I feel that is just the outcome of good relationships with fellow blogger and when we consider the foundation of blogging community which is “relationship ” .
The relationship starts with speaking not by just adding/ sending a friend request on Facebook. I see most of people add as a friend on Facebook but won’t ever have a time to leave a message like Hi, and an introduction. That’s where the base starts but people don’t have time because they are in the race of earning money (sad but true) .
Once you establish a great relation then bloggers can be great friends and this quote applies “a friend in need is a friend indeed” . So whenever you hit by panda/ penguin your friend will try to help you and guide you the correct way. They start to promote your content and encourages you for sure.
So when is relationship is strong then you earned a great friend who is a blogger, So your friends start promoting , Give suggestions, for a better blogging journey and even you can go with him for Tours, adventures etc.,
Do catch me on facebook , I am ready to help you guys anytime 🙂 You can ask me about me to amit shaw, rahul. etc..
I hope i digg the foundation of blogging community 🙂
Cheers
Have a great day
Suresh
Welcome to my blog Suresh!
Glad to check the points left by you and totally agree with it.
Yes, it is true that the people have no time to say “hi” as they are busy @ works. I know that the bloggers should have more friends to boost them at any time. I got help from many bloggers and turned real friend to them. If I noticed new posts from them, then I’ll be the first to share their posts in required places. Yeah, am still getting suggestions from other bloggers and from you now.
Very happy to see the people like you with such a great helping attitude, hope this may be the reason that our country is still receiving the good amount rain.
Sure, will catch you on FB, as am the enthusiastic learner of WordPress.

If you want to excel in life, you have to be part of like minded people (communities). This is a learning curve mostly for beginners. I think when you reach certain level, it might not be necessary anymore. This is my own opinion.
We all do it to be noticed, and for traffic…
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Babajide,
Agree with you partially!
Its nice that you boldly pointed your opinion.
But even for the big bloggers, their posts needs to be shared n commented. why you said “it might not be necessary”. According to me, the bloggers should not forget the timely help provided by the influential bloggers and in turn they should do something like sharing, tweeting etc.for them. While doing this, a good n honest relationship would develop between them make them to do better blogging.
No am doing not to get notified. Am getting satisfaction that I am helping few people.
Anyway, thanks for your unique point of views, keep visiting!
