Blog marketing - a major part of the Internet marketing mix
has gradually grown in the last few years - i.e., from 2003 when
different monetized variants or models of blogs began to
emerge. The use of niche business blogs by individuals who
are passionate about their niche markets - and by small
businesses to make money on the Internet and for building
customer trust can be rewarding. But there are some often
overlooked tactics that are "potentially damaging" when you
create your new small business niche blogs. These can lead
to the "kiss of death" in your blog marketing forays.
In this article - which is the part 1 of a 2-part series, I'll be
sharing with YOU some of the 6 high-impact blog marketing
strategies that YOU need to bullet-proof your business blogs
- starting from here on. So, off we go - Right NOW! :-)
Blog Marketing Strategy #1: Web Hosting Or Free Blogs?
I've read and pondered about the ideals and/or benefits
of creating free blogs (with third party providers) or getting
your own blogs hosted with your Internet business domain
name(s). Well, I've discovered that creating and using a
free blog can be OK if you have great and useful content
to share with your blog visitors, clients and readers -
eventually, it'll also be very beneficial if you can download
a blogging software at WordPress (which has more blog
features) and have it hosted by a Web host so that you
can take full charge of the long-term growth of your
online business(es).
It should be noted that NOT all free blog account services
are created the same and Internet business bloggers with
different temperaments have different needs - and wants.
You can ASK yourself questions and blog site needs and
solutions will arise as and when due - questions such as:
"What Web 2.0 tools and formats should be used?," "Should I
have RSS feeds?," "What blog site statistics package to use?,"
"What social bookmarking tools to install?, "Should I have free
interactive blog video marketing clips or presentations for
my blog visitors?," "Should I offer an opt-in eZine, special reports
or eBooks for free download by my blog visitors?), "In addition to
Google AdSense ads, what other contextual advertising codes
should I use on my blog?," etc.
Blog Marketing Strategy #2: Niche Business Blog Marketing
Embarking on a profitable niche blog marketing quest
can be very rewarding or damaging to your business and
personal finances depending on what tactics you use. To
avoid "kicking yourself hard in the foot" months down
the road, it's better to realize that it is people (your clients
and potential clients) that will make or break your blog
business(es) - so you have to do niche market and keyword
research online to see how many people will be in need of
your products and services (niche market size).
You have to use high-impact tactics here - and maintain
a consistent, no-nonsense attitude with regards to building
TRUST online because online buyers ONLY buy based on the
recommendations of those they TRUST! Having passion - "blog
marketing passion" is the KEY here because passion speaks
volumes! I'll shed more light on this aspect in Blog
Marketing Strategy #5. So, you can read on.
Blog Marketing Strategy #3: Highly Targeted Blog Traffic
Getting traffic to ANY new Web site or business blog can be
very challenging for beginner, intermediate affiliate and
blog marketing professionals. As an advocate of the use of
of real-world tactics for targeted Web site and blog
traffic generation, I came up with an EASILY memorizable
formula that will enable us - (beginner, intermediate and
experienced online marketers) to blog our way to the banks.
I wrote an article earlier which is entitled:
"Web Traffic Secret Formula Revealed - Why Traffic Is
NOT EQUAL To Money!" (YOU can read MORE of it later).
Now, using my "Web (or Blog) Traffic Secret Formula"
below - instead of the over simplistic or bland online
clichés like "Traffic = Money," which can give beginner
and intermediate Internet business marketers and
entrepreneurs a SKEWED sense of what it takes to
succeed online - we can say:
#1: Web Marketing Confluence of Events
"Web Marketing Confluence of Events + Business Cycles =
Avalanche of Highly Targeted Web Traffic = Money In Your
Bank Accounts.
OR, with SPECIFIC reference to "Blog Marketing" we can say:
#2: Blog Marketing Confluence of Events
"Blog Marketing Confluence of Events + Business Cycles =
Avalanche of Highly Targeted Blog Traffic = Money In Your
Bank Accounts.
Blog Marketing Strategies #1 to #6 constitute subsets of
the "Web (Blog) Marketing Confluence of Events" that I'm
talking about.
Closing Thoughts:
The "Blog Marketing Surge Tactics" should be used with
consistency and tact so that you also don't get PENALIZED by
the major Search Engines as a result of "duplicate content"
issues or "keyword stuffing" (excessive use of keywords).
So, as a beginner or experienced blog marketer, affiliate blog
marketer, Internet Web or blog site designer, or professional
in other fields of online business or market niches - YOU have
to constantly REMEMBER the "Blog Traffic Secret Formula"
as well:
"Web (Blog) Marketing Confluence of Events + Business Cycles =
Avalanche of Targeted Web (Blog) Traffic = Money In Your
Bank Accounts."
In the "Blog Marketing Surge Tactics - Niche Business Blog
Marketing Unleashed!" Part 2 article, you'll get to read about
