Tagging up your Blog

In my pursuit of blogging information, I came across the subject of tags.

I have recently revamped the tags on all of my blogs; making them more concise. I am still not sure if I should limit the amount of tags I affix to each blog in order to attract specific readers, or if I should tag a blog with as many subjects to which it may relate in order to attract a larger quantity of readers.

My current experiment with tags follows the former. I am blogging under just a few different tags in hopes of reaching more directed/specific traffic. This will hopefully provide a means through which I can track popular topics in my drive to find 'what works' in blogging.

Bloggers, what's working for you? How much do tags affect traffic quantity? Does it play a large role in returning visits?

I appreciate questions, comments and suggestions.

More Blog Traffic

I am definitely new to the world of blogging. Yet, I know that I can't have a successful blog without readers. So, I've been doing a lot of reading on the subject and I've come to the conclusion to test Blog Rush. Blog Rush is a widget that's added to your blog to offer readers other blogs of interest. By having this on my blog, I will be placed in the mix on someone else's widget. Hopefully this will provide a bit more exposure.

For those of you that have the Blog Rush widget, what do you think of it so far? Has it made an overall difference?

I welcome all questions, comments, and suggestions.
