It works like web search engine but still, it follows basic principles of a social networking site. Its users submit various sites and pages there and they are allowed also like others pages. It recommends web pages to its users based on their preference.

You should always try to be active in many other topics shared by other users. This way you can earn some backlinks along with good amount of traffic.

So if you can create excellent videos of your cooking or anything related to blogging niche then you will definitely get some traffic. Not only that it will help to create your brand because videos remain longer duration in our memory than just a picture. But the only hurdle is you should have good skill in capturing videos and editing those. Otherwise, you may need to hire professional which will be costly.
9. Instagram: A picture-driven social networking site. It has a huge user base. You can use if you use to take a lot of pictures.
