How to make your blog into the talk of the town by surrounding yourself with Good Publicity or Controversy, it may be good for your blog or it might hurt it, but if you want to be the talk of the town be prepared to make a stand.
Be an instant media hype by being unpredictable. I know you have an idea, just think of hollywood celebrities doing something naughty just to get to the public’s eyes.
You can also use that technique to make your blog famous. Not to be mistaken for misleading your readers by creating fake articles, but making a controversy by going against the flow, it means if others say yes, you say no, but always be prepared to back your post up with interesting facts and real figures. Readers may like you or hate you, give you praises for taking a stand or your readers would send you death notes and hate mails and yes spam your comment page.
But at least you got their attention, Now all yo have to do is win their hearts by posting another article that contradicting to the one that you just posted that made all the hype, and now this time make something pretty and happy that would make them forget your bad publicity and make them come back for more of your stuff.
