No improvement in organic traffic
 

It has been six months since my blog became online, but I am not seeing any improvements in traffic. Is because of Sandbox effect of Google? How long will it last?

What type of blog do you have? Is it your website blog or a blog on blogger or wordpress platform.

How regular you post on your blog?

Optimize for your personas not search engines.
Blog away
Plug into the blogosphere
use longtail keywords.
Get your meta down.
Consistently create quality content.
Use internal links.
Encourage incoming links.
Blow your own trumpet.

sorry but the fact is organic search results in Google have faded. Its a plugged and manipulated search engine. You gotta pay to play. Bing and Yahoo might get you better organic results, as I have seen, but if you are talking about Google, you will want to start focusing your energy elsewhere if you are willing to spend some $$$ in Adwords.
