As you know, blogging is one of the best ways to increase traffic flow to your new online business website (Um, whats blogging? if you dont know much about writing blogs, please read this article first.) Once you write your first entry, you start wondering, what is the best place to post a blog? What are the top blog sites that could aid the marketing of your online business?
Here is a list of the best free blog web-sites that I use myself and recommend to my team members:
Blogger.com
Wordpress.com
Hubpages.com
Tumblr.com
Xanga.com
Blog.com
Livejournal.com
Zimbio.com
Oh no! you say. So many sites to sign up for! I hate that! No worries I recommend you use the free version of the software called Roboform (http://www.roboform.com/) for all of your Internet sign-up s. Roboform fills out your forms automatically with a push of a button, which reduces your sign-up time to a few seconds per website.
Generally, its good not to make your blog sound too promotional, with no more then 2 links to any one web-site per entry, but Wordpress and Hubpages are especially strict when it comes to blog content. Make sure you dont put anything that sounds like a direct sell onto those websites otherwise your entries will get deleted and your account could get suspended.
If you like to write your entries in Word Document and then post them to the blog web-sites, make sure you preview your blogs before posting them. Blogs imported from Word tend to show up with a bunch of gibberish HTML codes, visible on top of the page. You would have to go to the blog edit window, and remove those manually. Once you post your entry on one of the websites I would recommend to copy and paste it from that site for when you start putting your blog on others. That way, you will be rid of the Word HTML codes forever.
Posting your blog manually to all of the above web-sites will take anywhere from an hour to 3 hours, depending on how fast you can work. My team and I have cut our posting time to 30-45 minutes, using a great free blog disseminator (a service which auto-posts blogs to various web-sites for you). I strongly recommend blog disseminators to anyone who values their time.
A quick note about the disseminators: they dont auto-post blog tags only the body of the blog so make sure you put your tags underneath every entry. I advise my team against using simple one or two-word tags, the reason being, that they act as keywords for search engines and if they are too general, your posting will not get nearly as much traffic. For example, try googling the keywords blogging, blog or online business. There are millions of search engine results for each of them. What is the chance that YOUR blog will show up on the first page?
Instead, try using longer tags. Think of something an actual person would search for in Yahoo! or Google. For example, good keywords/tags for this particular blog are:
Where to post a blog, best websites to post a blog, top blog sites, top blog web-sites, the best place to post a blog, marketing a new online business, online business marketing, blogging for a new business, writing a blog for a new business, how to post a blo g, new online business marketing tips, best free blog sites, best free blog websites
If you havent yet joined an online business opportunity, make sure you ask your team leaders for help with blogs, as they are extremely important to your development as a marketer. For example, I provide my team with links to various blog directories and with detailed tips on how to avoid common blogging mistakes. Remember that the more blogs you write, the more people will go to your website. I would recommend writing a blog every other day for the first month after your start/join an opportunity.
I hope this was helpful to you! I wish you best of luck in your blogging endeavors.
