The bad news is that it’s not quite that simple. Was Japan built in a day? NO Then why to worry. It takes doing several things right—and doing them over a long period of time.
The good news is that it’s not rocket science. I have used several basic techniques to increase my blog traffic every year since I started tracking it in 2008 using Google Analytics. Some years have been better than others, but all have shown an increase:
| Year | Pageviews | Increase |
| 2008 | 574,778 | N/A |
| 2009 | 1,496,241 | 160.3% |
| 2010 | 1,972,497 | 31.8% |
| 2011 | 5,060,331 | 156.5% |
| 2012 | 7,030,343 | 38.9% |
| 2013 | 7,802,426 | 11.0% |
| 2014 | 9,236,113 | 18.4%
