Creating a better library blog requires you to increase the amount of readers who read your blog on a regular basis. Here are some ideas on how to do this:

1. Make sure you follow the ideas in part 2 to offer the kind of content that will attract more readers.

2. Make sure that the RSS button for people to subscribe to your feed is in a visible location.

3. Consider offering library newsletters or other information via email on your blog and encouraging people to sign up. That way you can also remind people about new content on your blog.

4. Import the feed for your library blog into your library’s facebook fan page.

5. Put a blog widget with a link to your library blog on your web page.

6. Encourage comments and sharing of posts. You can use a tweetmeme widget for twitter or a sharethis or a socialable widget for other social networks.
