How Blogs Can Help You With Your Online Business
1. With a blog, you can easily brand yourself as an expert in
your subject area and promote yourself all over the net. Blogs
have taken a life of its own, and there are many blog
directories springing to life.
Each blog directory is classified according to various topics of
interest, and you can submit your blog to the major blog
directories.
You can then easily attract readers to your area of
specialisation, and slowly brand yourself as the expert from the
many readers who visit these blog directories each day.
2. Search engine will rank your web site higher if you have a
blog on your site. This is because search engine "spider bots"
like fresh content, and with a blog, you can just spend 5 - 10
mins per day posting what you want to share for that day and
that's it.
Do that on a consistent basis, and the search engine spider bots
will come back to your site more often. Having a blog on your
own site is so simple my 9 year old cousin can do it, and you
will learn how in my multimedia course.
3. Blogs allow you to build and foster a closer relationship
with your visitors and readers, building trust and rapport.
Blogs allow readers to post comments, and it promotes
interaction.
With good relationship with your readers it will be easier for
you when it comes to recommending products and services because
they trust you.
4.Blogs are a one stop push button publishing system. You can
easily set up a blog with Google's Blogger in three easy steps.
Likewise, now that Wordpress has offered free Wordpress blog
accounts, you can again easily set up your free Wordpress
account.
With a blogging account, you can easily publish anything online,
unlike the usual way of publishing where you have to create and
edit the page using some web site editing software and uploading
it to your hosting account.
And with Wordpress, you can instantly link all your posts and
pages together, unlike your standard web site where you have to
link web pages manually.
Blog saves time and is a quick and easy way to build an online
presence.
5. Incoming Links Blogs, especially Wordpress blogs has a
feature called trackback. Trackback basically allows someone to
post a comment on another person's blog with a link pointing
back to your own blog.
This is one way to get incoming links to your site. And we know
that the more incoming links you have to your site, the higher
your site will rank for certain keywords.
These are just some of the powerful ways Blogs can help with
your online business.
These are just some reasons how blogs can help you in your
online business.
