    How can people subscribe to my blog if they don't even know it exists?

    I've started a new blog. But no one knows it's there.
    How do I get people to subscribe to a blog that they don't know about?

    Do I first send them a link to it so they can look at it and then subscribe if they want to? Or is there a better way to do this? Maybe a more professional way? using a plugin or what not?

    thank you!!

    Hello tere12,

    That's the hardest part of creating a blog — you actually have to advertise it. Of course, Google will eventually list it in search results for particular keywords, so you have to optimize your SEO with the right keywords, in order to get better chances to be found.

    Other than that, some (obvious) tips:

    - Post a link on your Facebook page;
    - Depending on what you blog's subject is, post a link in a twitter message, with a hashtag that targets a specific group, e.g. #poetry, #gardening, etc.

    Here's a starting link with some tips:
