Home Business News - Blogging Tips
Blogging tips for business owners just starting out.
* Remember that your "title" of your post is like creating a title for a web page. The search engines read your post titles the same way. First!
* Start your post and each paragraph with one of the keyword phrases that your post is about. Unless your post is simply a personal journal, a blog with a business slant requires a sense of search engine rules.
* Stay on topic through out the post. Those keywords and keyword phrases will count.
* Create more than one post on any given business subject. If you write a post or article on home business budgets then set time aside to write several article along the same theme. Don't even think of loading your blog with keywords just to get the search engines humming (spamming is the ultimate NO NO with blogs!)
* Link posts that related to each other, refer to the resources found on another post within the same blog. Keep them in the appropriate categories. So that your category "Advertising" will have posts about writing ads, writing headlines, advertising resources, mastering the art of preselling, converting visitors to customers with ad copy. Cross link them so that a reader that is learning how to write compelling headlines can click through to read the article on converting visitors to customers. All of these steps will make your posts and your overall blog more RELEVANT to search engines AND your visitors.
* Look for blogs that discuss a specific category that you pursue on your own blog. Let's stick with Advertising. Make a list of the topics you can discuss with your readers that go right along with what you have already created. Link to these blogs, make comments, discuss them on your blog. You will again be MORE relevant (hey, your blog will be too!)
* Get your blog listed in directories and promoted in ezines that are within the same niche.
Learn how to be yourself within your blog. Professional, Yes but YOU!
