Hi,
Here’s a brief post showing you what you can do INSTANTLY after you start a blog – that will help a) increase your search engine rankings b) increase your website traffic c) get you more leads and sales.
That is especially true if you already have a website – so you have yourdomain.com and now you’ll start a blog on yourdomain.com/blog
==>Anyone in any niche can start a blog and fill it up with content – because remember you don’t have to write articles on your blog – in fact a blog is not for articles mainly but it’s a journal where you can post ANYTHING.
Whatever you want to post about; if you like what you’re posting about rest assured there are other people that will like it too.
So if you have a website start a blog to enjoy those three benefits.
So here’s what you can do (after creating the blog and filling it up with content). Make sure the blog has content – maybe it should have some 10 posts
Submit the Blog Rss Feed to Rss Directories – these are directories like for example: http://www.feedage.com
An RSS directory allows you to submit your blog content (therefore your RSS feed) and it allows visitors to read blogs easy. They also get updated often because RSS feeds gets updated too whenever you post something new.
Submit your Blog to Blog directories – these are less sophisticated sites – because they simple contain categories and subcategories and blogs. Just like website directories but these contain just blogs. Example: http://www.blogarama.com
Submit your best blog posts to Blog Carnivals – this is very little known – blog carnivals are sites that list the top blog posts. For example this blog: http://www.therealmind.com
If you search the blog you’ll find that they are looking for blog posts/articles related to meditation (which is what their blog is about).
There’s a directory that lists all of these sites that accept articles/blog posts http://blogcarnival.com/bc
They have a submission form and you can submit your best blog posts to 10 sites or to as many as you wish from their hundreds in no time. It’s important that you only submit what you think are your best blog posts.
Once your submissions are accepted they are listed on all the websites you’ve submitted to. Sometimes they also comment on your blog to let you know they have accepted your submission.
So these are sites that want content – and they will link to it.
Use your website resources – Add an optin form on your blog if you are building a list, promote your products on the sidebar if you have products and/or services. So use your blog as a marketing tool. That’s also one BIG reason why it’s vital to have a blog. It’s a weapon that gets you traffic/leads/sales. And all you have to do is post content on it…
>> OutRankSmart™ software next upgrade will do all I mentioned here automatically that is rss submission, blog directory submission and blog carnival submission. It will do more than that too.
Finally I like to tell you that having a blog on your website also increases your website rankings. If you put content on the blog search engines love content! Plus if you link to the website from the blog posts sometimes; you give pagerank to your website as well.
So not only your blog itself will rank high in the search engines (I mean the blog posts for specific keywords) but also your website will get a boost in pagerank and looks more of an authority by search engines when you have a blog updated regularly with new and useful content.
