In the beginning there was websites, now there are blogs. If there was an internet bible that's how it would go in the new testament. Because blogs have become powerful marketing tools and unlike websites there free. Soon there will be more blog owners then website owners on the internet and for most people just starting a blog and advertising it to their friends is all they need to do but if you started a blog for internet marketing/business purposes you need to know a few things about blogging if you want to be successful.
First, before you sign up for a blog you need to think what the content of your blog is going to be. Content is what holds blogs to together and keeps visitors coming back for more. Without good content no matter how many blogs you have you don't really have anything. So before you start blogging you need to think about what the subject of your blog is and you need to find information to provide to your blog visitors.
Fortunately, information is free on the internet and there are a variety of places where you can get topics for your blog post. If you do a search in Google for the subject of your blog you can find tons of free information to use in your blog. Once you find this information you have the choice of taking it as is, or rewriting it and putting your personal spin on it.
If your not the creative type and you can't really think of any subjects for your blog, just think about what the category of your blog is and use that to find information for your blog. If your blog is in the category of internet marketing for instance, you can do a search for internet marketing in article directories or you can visit Internet Marketing Forums such as the Warrior Forum and these places will provide you with topics for your blog, you just have to pick one that you find interesting. It's possible to own a blog and provide years worth of content for it without every having to create content yourself.
Once you've got your content it's time to promote your blog. I only use one form of marketing promotion and that's article marketing.
With article marketing you can submit articles to article directories and wait for traffic to come in. Articles are a great source for free promotion because you can write about whatever you want and you can include a link to any site that you wish as long as it's within the guidelines of the article directory that your using. Article directories are used by blog and website owners to find content so if you write a good article your article can be spread around the internet with a link back to your blog on multiple websites and blogs, so you get all of the traffic that they attract. Articles are also viewable in search engines such as Google so you can get organic traffic from people searching for information.
