No matter how hard you work at monetizing your blog, traffic remains the most important parameter by which you can judge your success. If your monetization efforts are to bear fruits then you have to make every effort to reach out to vast audience who could read your blog. One such tool is feedburner Feedburner is a free service that allows the distribution of your blog to a vast feed network. The members of this feed network have a large following and lots of people go through their feeds on a daily basis. Subscribing to feedburner will not bring instantaneous traffic to your blog but it will at least give you a better chance to increase traffic. Please note that it takes two to three months before you start getting significant traffic. So be patient and keep blogging
