Tips For Running An Internet Marketing Blog
This is Christopher Stigson, a blogger who has spent hundreds of hours trying to figure out the blogging game. I think I've finnally cracked part of the code and I'm sharing this with you today. The point of this article is to run a test and at the same time share some knowledge about internet marketing blogs.
It's no lie that blogs are a very profitable way of running an online business. You probably need to do a couple of things differently in order to fully have all the benefits that comes with owning a blog. Internet marketing strategies for promoting and using special tricks to increase search engine rankings is not unusual around here.
What I've found is that creating a traffic pulling blog is more than just about getting search engine rankings. You need more... See... Blogs are so easily syndicated using RSS and tools such as RSS submit to get your website spread like wildfire in just one go. This is no news... This isn't any news either, but you want to "deep link" your blog posts and have strictly defined anchor texts.
Now as for tips on running an internet marketing blog that relates soley towards internet marketing or affiliate marketing, eBay marketing or traffic, you need to choose a specific topic and "niche it". This means find a topic within the general category "internet marketing".
When you have got a niche within the "internet marketing niche" it's easy to start generate some income. See, most people are targeting "make money" and "how to make money" and "make money online", but this is NOT what you want to do. Instead head over to keyword research tools and find long tail keywords in the internet marketing niche.
If we were to use "traffic generation" as an example of a sub-niche, then after keyword research we'd most likely find a keyword such as "increase search engine traffic". Search it, do some "link:http://www.yourcompetition.com" in Yahoo to find how many backlinks these sites have between search results 10 and 20. We have found a viable sub-niche-long-tail-keyword. Hurray!
Now when you have a topic and a keyword it's time to create a domain name that has similar or an exact name of the keyword. So "www.increase-search-engine-traffic.com" would be ideal for "increase search engine traffic". You can go as far as doing "www.increasesearchenginetraffic.com", but I like the dashes. For search engine rankings, I personally haven't seen it matter.
It's time to write content. Since we have a keyword, in this case "increase search engine traffic" all we have to do is write content about the subject and post to our new internet marketing blog. Simple and smart! You also want to collect some 15-50 keywords more and type content using these keywords. Start posting them to various article directories online and start to see profits. Recommended directories include ezinearticles and goarticles.
