Writing quality content plays a significant role in terms of search engine ranking and traffic and nothing can replace quality content. If you write duplicate content then it turns your users Off besides degrading your rank in the search engine listings. Spend some time in making drafts to do a killer post. This will make your blog an authority on that subject and people start making links to it as you have valuable content.

Join forums

Join forums related to the website you are building. Reading various discussions made by people in the forum threads will help you to analyze and understand user opinions regarding the topic. Leave your opinion and a relevant link if possible as a reply, this can be one of the effective ways to drive users to your site.

Be Consistent

Your visitors might be turned off if you don’t blog consistently. Usually, one blog post per day is good but it depends on what topic you blog about.

    Great tips, especially about updating old posts. You say to remind readers of it…would it do any good or bad to republish, so its on top?

    Updating and appending previous posts will certainly boost your rank in search engine results when the blog post is
    “deep crawled”. I mean if you are ranked 4th in search engine results for a keyword initially,when you add more relevant information to that post it means that you are providing more relevant information so it helps in boosting the page rank.

    The updated posts need not necessarily appear on the top of the blog as you have mentioned. You can inform your visitors via a hyperlink in the sidebar that few posts have been updated and republished.
