Why You Should Blog
Below is a MRR and PLR article in category Internet Business -> subcategory Blogging.
Why You Should Start a Blog
I've been blogging for a bit over two months, and many of my mentoring students have been curious about my blogging journey. Initially, I hesitated to teach blogging since I didn't feel I fully understood it myself. I prefer to teach topics I'm confident in.
However, I checked Alexa today and saw that my blog nearly broke into the top 10,000 most visited sites on the internet. This success with unique blog promotion methods inspired me to share my insights on the topic. But before discussing traffic-building strategies, let's explore why I started a blog and why you should consider it too.
My Journey into Blogging
When I first entered the online world, I didn't have products or copywriting skills. My success came from creating high-ranking websites and selling the traffic to those who had better marketing tools. But I’ve since learned the importance of combining product creation, copywriting, and traffic generation.
Consider this: who are the top three websites? Yahoo, Google, and MSN. Notably, MSN is an offshoot of Microsoft, a company founded by Bill Gates, the richest man in the world. Even he shifted focus from selling software to engaging in the traffic business.
The Importance of Establishing Personal Connections
Initially, my traffic was sold anonymously through corporate names, and my customers didn’t know me personally. When I tried to engage them through emails, it was ineffective. However, a simple promotional email offering a special deal led to over $60,000 in sales in one day?"proving the power of a customer list.
Yet, when I introduced other products, they didn't sell as well. Why? Because customers didn’t know or trust me as an individual. Personal endorsements are far more impactful than anonymous ones.
Why a Blog is Your Best Tool
I realized the best way to build trust and establish personal connections with customers is through a blog. It allows me to introduce myself and connect with those who purchase my products. This personal touch turns strangers into acquainted readers who trust my recommendations.
Now, some people even find my blog before buying my products, which adds another layer of trust and engagement.
Here’s How You Can Start a Successful Blog:
1. Register Your Domain: Use your name for authenticity.
2. Put Your Name Prominently: Let readers know who you are.
3. Be Personal: Share insights and stories. Create a connection without oversharing personal details.
4. Frequent Posts: Engage your audience with daily content to establish a reading habit.
5. Don’t Fear Sharing: Offer valuable information without worrying about giving too much away. The nuances of software and video can't be captured in text alone.
6. Enable Subscriptions: Make it easy for readers to follow your blog and receive updates. This increases repeat visits.
Blogging isn't just about sharing thoughts; it’s a strategic tool for building relationships and personal branding. Create your blog after launching your first few products, cross-promote them, and watch your engagement grow.
Finally, get your blog set up today. Install WordPress, enable subscription links, and start posting. Submit your content to directories, just as I did, and aim to climb Alexa's ranks. Who knows? Maybe you'll surpass my success in a few months!
