To reinforce this in your mind, we'll use the
feminine pronoun to talk about readers/visitors/customers. To keep things simple
and even, we'll use the masculine pronoun when referring to reality of Business
Blog. Why . . . . . . ? because women now represent 50% of all surfers. And they
control approximately 80% of all shopping dollars.
The concept of Business Blog article content always should refer to
this three reality question . . .
1) HOW YOU REACH your visitor, and . . .
2) WHAT YOU SAY to her, and . . .
3) HOW YOU REFER her to your affiliate or product site.
There is always a reason for how well you do, and that reason always
relates to what you do and how you do it. Because how you reach your
customer, and what you say once you reach her, and how you refer
your visitor to your affiliate site or products directly affects
your visitor's mindset when she arrives at that site.
Once you realize this, then you know success really is do-able in
Business Blog phenomenon. But remember, some people do succeed . . .
big-time. But not necessarily the first time. Just keep trying until
you find the right approach.
A positive mindset turns into a purchase with amazing regularity. A
negative one is near-impossible to overcome. Until we meet again in

How to Reach Your Visitor . . .
Free-For-All Sites (FFAs) are a great example of how not to to reach
people. For the most part, they have become so seamy and useless,
that no matter what you say, you're doomed from the start.
When we talk about FFA sites I remember when I was first have this
kind of site. I was Work so hard to advertise my FFA site to build
my mailing list. But what I learn here is we can simply create fake
email account to submit our link to this kind of site. In this case.
Yes we can collect a hundred or thousand email address when we use
FFAs site, but When you sent an email or newsletter to them, they
will never respond to you, because They are not using their email to
receive and read your email. They just remember the Email address in
case they want to submit their link to FFAs site and make a
confirmation for their submitting.
And yes, you can setup a pop up page regarding your product, and
attached it with your confirmation page. But for me, I feel it look
like some kind of spam advertisement because first you only
direction to confirm your email address, and after you do that you
start to receive a bunch of advertisement for some product. I feel
like my email have been rob here . . .
Compare this with how smart and open-minded your visitor and reader
feels when she finds you via a Search Engine!
2) What to Say to Your Visitor . . .
In order to blog for profit, or to make money in other words, you
need to understand the principles of Google Adsense, a selling
advertising space on your blog and affiliate marketing. You could
also advertise your products on your blog if you have any to sell,
but you will likely be doing the selling from your website and that
is another technique altogether.
Before discussing ways in which you can use your blog to make money,
let's first discuss your blog, and where you are operating it from.
If your blog is a Blogger or Wordpress blog hosted by either of
these two, then your options are very limited when compared to
uploading your own blogging software from hosting companies. If you
are serious about blogging for money then you should do so from your
own website.
If you have no web host as yet, and are seeking one from which to operate
your blog, then make sure that your host offers MySQL. You will need
that to run Wordpress from your website.
I will not go further into this because it is not the object of this
article, which is to recommend ways of making money from a blog.
First register with Google Adsense. Enter that into your browser and
follow all of the instructions. You will be able to offer adverts on
your blog, and will be paid every time somebody clicks on an advert.
They don't have to buy anything, just click on the advert.
You should place your Adsense blocks somewhere on your sidebar, and
also at the bottom of your blog so that when people have finished
reading they have something to click on. If your reader reaches the
end of your article, page of blog, it means that are interested in
what are writing, otherwise they would have left and clicked on to
somewhere else.
If you have nothing at the end of the post or the page, then people
will feel somewhat let down. If you provide them with something to
do, even just to click on an advert that interests them, then that
is what they are liable to do. The theme of the adverts are
determined by the Google contextual algorithm often called LSI, that
determines the theme of your content through the vocabulary that you
use in it.
You can also offer affiliate links on your blog: links to products
being sold by others whereby you get a proportion of the sales price
for each sales frequently 50%. You can find lots of affiliate
products to sell on Merchant web sites. or simply by entering the
term into your favorite search engine. These links can take the form
of banner ads, text links or clickable logo, and you can place them
anywhere on your blog.
This applies predominantly for blogs run from your own website, where you
have total editing over the html of the various components of your
blog: the style sheet that controls each complete page, the headers,
footers, sidebars and everything else that makes up your blog. You
do not have this degree of control over a hosted blog.
Don't write a Business Blog that purely devoted to "hard-selling"
your affiliate products. Imagine a visitor who hits your site and
reads an immediate sales pitch. That person will resist because she
does not know you. Then, if and it's not likely she clicks to your
product, she gets another sales pitch on the Sale site
Negative x 2!
In other words . . . Never devote your site to one company product
line. No matter what you do, no matter how sincere you are, this
kind of approach always ends up "smelling" like a sales pitch. It
simply makes no difference that you honestly love the products --
your visitor will mistake your devotion for selling. Remember they
don't know you! The bottom line? |
