MLM Blogging Secrets - Brian M. Hazel

If you’ve just entered the world of blogging 

or if you’ve been blogging for a short time 

and find that things are not working out as you expected,

it will be worth your while to spend some time understanding 

the common mistakes that bloggers make, 

mistakes that make it hard to enjoy what should be an enjoyable, 

satisfying experience: Blogging!

The five most common new blogger mistakes are:

Diving in (rather than wading in)

Having unrealistic expectations

Losing focus

Plagiarizing

Ignoring the reader

Diving in! 

Many bloggers are so anxious to get started that they dive in rather 

than wading in slowly — it’s a mistake in an unfamiliar swimming pool or pond 

and it’s a mistake when entering a new arena such as the ‘blogosphere.’ 

Consider these things before you start your Blog:

Find a focus for your blog . . . a focus that reflects what you know, what 

interests you and what you enjoy talking and writing about. No topics are out of 

bounds: politics, religion, science, sexual orientations, comedy, exercise, diet, 

diseases, etc..

Take the time to read dozens of different blogs: note the colors, graphics and 

layouts to get an idea of what appeals to you. 

Also note that some bloggers are long-winded and 

others are brief and to the point . . . 

Others are just chatty and entertaining and have 

no particular point to make . . . this too is a personal style you get to choose.

You need a host for your blog, some are free, some charge a small amount per 

month for their service, some are simple to use and some require more 

technical knowledge, some have more features than others; choose carefully, 

once you’ve established your blog and have a few regular readers, 

you may not want to change your address (your URL).

You may or may not want to use your real name on your blog, this depends on 

many factors, not the least of which is your stance on controversial issues and 

how publicly you want to be identified with your opinions.

Unrealistic expectations! 

If you come to blogging expecting instant results, a 

large readership and many complimentary comments, 

you may be disappointed. 

There are tens of thousands of blogs online vying for the same audience. 

Patience and tenacity are essential on your part. If you write well, find a unique 

niche to fill, have appealing titles for your posts and 

tirelessly promote your blog the readership and comments 

(some of which will be complimentary) will come.

Losing focus! 

When you started your blog you had a particular reason for doing so; 

it might have been to express your views on a topic or it might have been to 

just communicate with a close circle of friends about your daily activities. 

Readers will come to your blog for the first time and either 

be interested in your subject matter or not, will either like your style or not 

and, if they like your subject and style 

they may comment and then come back later. 

Once you’ve established a topic and tone for your blog 

you’re free to change it but to do so you’re basically starting all over.

Be aware that you can have more than one blog, each one devoted to a 

particular topic and each one, if you choose, under a different identity.

Plagiarizing!

 There are some great bloggers out there and as you surf through blogs you 

might find one who said something really well, something that resonated with 

you and something you want to put in your blog. 

DON’T just copy and paste someone’s words in your blog 

without giving them credit, making it look to the world like 

the words are yours. 

If you write it, write it in your own words and write it better, adding your own 

thoughts and feelings and then be gracious, 

mention where you got the idea and provide a link.

Ignoring the reader! 

Some of the people who read your blog will leave comments; some readers will 

agree with you and some readers may even praise your insights but most will 

pick a point you’ve made and criticize it. 

People leave comments on others blogs for the same reason they themselves 

blog, to exchange ideas and express their points of view. 

Always respond to your readers comments; thank them for reading and taking 

the time to comment (even the severe critics) 

and then respond, as appropriate, to their comment. 

If you ignore your comments, your readers may end up ignoring your blog.

Profitable Blog Content - Brian M. Hazel

 




Fresh topics are important to keep your blog readership interested,

And... now we're going to discuss just how you can do that.

What are you going to write about? 

It should be a topic that you're passionate about or are at the very least interested in.

For example I live and breathe => Internet Marketing 

Fresh content is important to keep your blog readership as well as the search engines interested...

But what do you do when the well of ideas runs dry?

This articles give some suggestions on how to keep the momentum going when you're blogging.

If you've chosen blogging as your new career, then you don't want to torture yourself
by writing about something that you have zero interest in,
otherwise you might as well return to that mundane job you just quit!

Feelings and emotions show through your writing, so your readers will notice any indifference you may have toward a certain topic that you find boring.
Don't forget the advice about writing with a personality.

Forced writing will not establish you in the world of blogging at all.

Once you've chosen your main theme -- or if it has chosen you, then that's even better -- start posting to your blog and try to get into the habit of doing that at least once every day.

It doesn't always need to be a long post; it could be a comment on something you read in the newspaper today or a segment that you saw on the breakfast news program on TV.

Think of yourself as a gigantic container ship, that needs a lot of effort to get moving.
At first, you'll budge just a foot or two and later you'll trudge slowly on until you're at full speed. Before you know it, it'll take a lot of effort to stop you!

Nevertheless, regardless of how well you know your topic, you're going to run out of fresh input at some point, so let's look at some content brainstorm ideas.

1) Check out what other bloggers have to say on the current state of affairs in your field of discussion. You can find related blogs by visiting http://blogsearch.google.com/  or http://www.technorati.com. You'll learn from other blogs and you can also comment on what others have to say on your own blog!

2) Once you’ve established contact with other bloggers, you’ll have almost inexhaustible input to keep you going for a while, so there won't be an acute need to search for content to write about. Should you still be stuck, then you can search for news articles related to your niche in you local newspaper or online.

3) By joining a few forums related to your niche -- just choose the ones that are the most focused on your particular area -- you can engage in conversations with others who share your interests. This is a great way to build up a Q&A bank and interesting discussion topics to write about. An added bonus is that your forum posts will quite handily generate traffic for your blog and, hopefully, profits.

Try to maintain your daily posting habit. 

The major search engines love fresh content and... 

They are more likely to spider your blog frequently, 

Which will also result in getting you extra traffic.

The subject of traffic will be discussed in a future article, so don't worry about that right now.

Just keep writing and posting and building up that momentum...

Trust Me...You'll be an established blogger before you know it!

So what is blogging really all about? 

First off, let me tell you that it's a => Lucrative Business to Blog 

And that blogs are easy to set up and manage. 

Imagine getting paid to write about subjects that interest you, whenever you want, 

Wherever you are! 

The flexibility involved allows you to maintain your blog at your own pace,
and with Internet cafe's easily accessible all over the globe,
even your vacation won't get in the way of your blogging...
Or should I say: even your blogging won't get in the way of your vacation?

In this article, let's take a look at the profitability of a blog and set up one of our own,

Free of charge!

Interested?

Read on!

First, you need to get yourself  => A Blog. 

There are several options – host a blog on your own domain or get a free one.
For starters, let’s talk about the free blogs.

You can obtain one at http://www.blogger.com  - like I have... => Click Here

or at http://www.wordpress.com.

WordPress is a free blog engine that is robust and infinitely expandable.

Blogger is actually owned by Google, so it will be detected by Google’s radar faster
and you will be indexed more quickly.

WordPress.com, however, is an another option  and, I have no comparison on the speed of getting indexed by search engines.
However, WordPress is better in the sense that it has more advanced features such as Trackbacks and Categories.
You can also manage your sidebar links more efficiently (more about this later).

Get a free blog at either Blogger or WordPress. Then, familiarize yourself by publishing your first post on your blog and tinkering around with the options and templates.

Here are some words to start expanding your blogging vocabulary:

Permalink – Permalink stands for permanent link, which is a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) that leads to an individual post that you make in your blog.

Trackback – When you post about someone else’s blog post elsewhere, your post will show up in their “trackback” section. This feature, however, is not available with a Blogger account.

Pinging – Blogging seems to be paired with pinging almost every time either one is mentioned nowadays. Pinging is actually the action where a certain aggregator is notified whenever your blog is updated, so that the aggregator may show the newest post of your blog on their website. This is a useful way to gain traffic, which I'll discuss in a future article.

Content

Next, let's look at the type of content that's suitable for your blog in order to make it profitable. You need to understand that there is no fixed scope that your blog should have, which means you can write about whatever you’re interested in.

Mind you, the difference between a profitable blog and a non-profitable one is the way you write. What would you prefer: reading your university professor’s lecture notes or the latest novel by your favorite author?

People prefer to read "light" items most of the time.

When they check out your blog, they are not only looking for information, but they are also looking for information that they can access easily.

So, to attract more visitors as well as to keep your current readers coming back for more, it's very important to add a personal touch to your blog posts. This can be done by simply imagining that you’re talking with your personal friend.

An extra bonus for your readers would be a great sense of humor, so try to add funny comments in your articles where relevant.

Another important point is to avoid addressing your reader as a plural unit. Don't write as if you’re preparing a speech. Instead, write as if you’re having a conversation with a single person, an equal friend, because this will make your reader relate to you more easily.

Besides that, it's also very useful to establish your own personality through your words.
We're very curious creatures, so naturally your visitors would want to know as much
about you as the information you’re offering them.

Having a distinctive personality in your blog will make a world of difference between your blog about gadgets and all the other blogs about gadgets out there.

This is a lot like creating your own brand name, where people immediately remember your blog’s name when they need information about gadgets, just like how people immediately think of McDonald’s for fastfood or Nike for sportswear.

There will be more on the subject of content the next time.

When word gets around about your command of blogging, others who need to know about blogging will start to actively seek you out!
