Blogging has become increasingly popular in the past couple of years. There are more and more blogs created everyday on a vast array of topics. Both on a personal and business level.
If you own a website, then you know how difficult it is to get exposure to it. Creating a blog is one of the best resources there is today for receiving that exposure.
Like anything else...it takes hard work on creating interesting content on a new blog and getting traffic to it. Focus on your website or business when creating new posts and always try and add something new everyday. Try and connect with your creative side...we all posess some level of creativity! Give it a try...you just may surprise yourself at what you manage to conjure up.
Topics:
Concentrate on what people may be searching for today on the Internet. A lot of people are searching for content for their websites, marketing advice, and/or finding work at home jobs and home businesses.
While some people may be just searching for friendship and are interested in simply having a good time...getting to know others, conversing about current events, funny jokes, and the like. Some people are interested in infant clothing, toys, various baby items, and parenting tips or advice.
For example: If your website focuses on women's interests...then center your blog around women's interests, support groups, parenting issues or advice, bargain shopping, household items, recipes, or whatever your website content may be. Try and make your blog posts as interesting as possible to try and keep people coming back for more.
Tips On Getting Comments:
1) Simply invite people to join in on the conversations and encourage them to comment on the various posts within your blog description.
2) If you own a website and message board, and you have advertising space available for other webmasters or business owners...announce a contest on your message board offering free advertising for the person that posts the most comments on your blog. ( I have a good friend that has done this very thing and it's working great for her.)
3) Give people a chance to self promote their websites or businesses through their comments.
4) Offer something free...for example, a free ebook or some kind of software.
5) Participate in message boards, announcing your blog, and request their opinion. Ask them to place a comment post and share their thoughts and opinions about your blog.
Promoting Your Blog:
1) Advertise your blog on various message forums.
2) Include your blog link in your signature within message forums and emails.
3) Submit your blog in blog directories.
4) Exchange links with other bloggers.
5) Write articles relating to blogging and submit them to article directories.
6) Advertise your blog in various newsletters and ezines.
7) Include your blog link on any websites you may have.
One Last Thought:
Have fun with your blog. If there is something (off the wall) that you want to share or you think is really amusing...share it in your blog. Write about anything you feel like writing. The possibilities are literally endless!
