How To Keep Readers From Leaving Your Blog
Sire on Oct-12-2007 under Blogging Tips Well this sound almost impossible doesn’t it? But I am not talking about tying them down to your blog so that they never leave, as I am actually referring to what happens when they click on a link to another blog or site.
Now being bloggers we just love to share information with our readers and many a time this involves including a link to some relevant information. Unfortunately, when they click that link they will leave your blog and may never return. The answer is to make sure you use a link that opens a new window so that they never actually leave your blog.
A normal link looks likes this:
<a href=”http://www.theelusivepotofgold.com/MyBlog/”>Well Blog Me</a>
If you don’t want them to leave your page all you need is to add a bit more code. It will now look like this:
<a href=”http://www.theelusivepotofgold.com/MyBlog/” target=”_blank”>Well Blog Me</a>
As you can see by this link, Well Blog Me, the result looks the same, but try it and see where it takes you.
