You haven’t been successful in driving traffic to your blog and all the efforts that you put into making money fails.
Whenever you write blog posts they seem to go unseen and unread because no comment was left to show that at least one person came to look at your article.
What do you do? Do you pack up your things and walk through the door? Or do you try to save your blog by breathing life back into your blog?
I think it’s time for you to perform a blog CPR and make your blog come alive.
In this article I will be giving you 5 tips on how you can breathe life back into your blog.
Install A New Theme
Most of the times why your blog seem to be some sort of ghost town is because the design is like a dead end street or a lonely road.
Most times if your blog’s design is dull and boring then people won’t be easily attracted to it.
Take a look at some of the most successful blogs inside your niche, or even outside your niche as well. Don’t their blog design look amazing and unique?
Yes they do.
Get what I am trying to say now?
Once your blog design looks welcoming and vibrant then people will be more inclined to check out your blog posts. If you have been using the same theme for years, like me, then its time for a change.
I have planned to change my blog design when the time is right and that is the reason why I bought the Genesis Frameware.
Also make your blog clutter free, clean layout and a neat navigation. This will help to do the trick.
Write Blog Posts Regularly
Another reason why your blog seems dead is because you don’t blog on a regular.
You can breathe back life into your blog if you start blogging on a regular basis. I have heard of bloggers who even publish more than once per day and they have been reaping benefits from doing this.
This won’t work for all blogs though.
But what we need to remember is that in order to keep your blog alive then publishing on a regular basis would be recommended.
Most blogs end up dead or unknown is because the blog owners don’t publish articles on a regular basis. If you stop posting articles on your blog like you normally do then you will notice that your traffic will die. Publish on a regular and you will see that your traffic go up, well depending on how well you market your blog as well.
Publish regular well help to show that your blog isn’t dead or abandoned.

Think Outside Of The Box
Don’t follow, become a leader, be different.
One of the best ways to breathe life back into your blog is to think outside of the box and see what new ideas that you can come up with. Once you start coming up with some new ideas then you can jot them down and see what will work well for your blog.
Don’t be one of those newbie bloggers who think that following the pro bloggers will make their blog successful. You have to come up with your own style so that your blog can be unique.
When your blog is different from others then it will help to make your blog unique. This will also cause your blog to come alive.
Change Your Focus
Sometimes when we focus on one thing for too long it can cause us to ignore the true reason why we started blogging in the first place.
Think back to when you first discovered blogging. Remember the reason why you created a blog and try to stir up your passion for the topic which you started your blog.
Most times we tend to focus on the money making part of blogging instead of being a blogger. A blogger should be a person who loves to write articles for people to read or for an audience.
If your main aim in creating a blog was to make money then chances are your focus needs to be adjusted or you will end up failing as a blogger. Yes we all want to make money through blogging, but the truth is blogging isn’t about making money.
Yes you can blog for money, but what I think is best is to blog because you love it and the money will come as a benefit or a reward.
Change your focus a bit and focus more on blogging, I guarantee that when you aim to build up your blog you will start making money.
Start Accepting Guest Posts
Most times when we write blog posts our writing pattern tend to be the same. You can breathe life back into your blog if you start accepting guest bloggers.
How can publishing guest posts help to make your blog come alive?
Well for one thing more bloggers means more new topics on your blog. Different bloggers means different writing style. If you publish articles from different authors then your blog will come alive. Your blog visitors won’t be bored with the same writing pattern, well of course if you are an excellent writer then this doesn’t apply to you.
But people love to read and learn new things from others as well. So try publishing guest posts on your blog and see how well it works for you.
