Affiliate Marketing With Blogs: The Golden Goose?
Author: Kenneth Zhou
Want to make more money online in an affiliate marketing
programme? Here's some advice from a very smart -- and
very
successful -- guy who does just that:
"I blog at Entrepreneurs-Journey.com and I make about
$2,000
USD a month via affiliate products. Here's my advice if
you
choose to use a blog as part of your affiliate marketing
arsenal."
TIPS FROM AN AFFILIATE MARKETING EXPERT:
- Blog honestly and consistently. When you blog every
day and
make the content your own words, and helpful, you build
up a
very powerful relationship between you and your readers.
At a
certain point your blog gains the credibility of the
recommendation of a friend. After that, sales are a
piece of
cake.
- Don't hesitate to
write over and over about the same product in your affiliate marketing
programme. You can come at it from different points of view that way...
write about what you
expect from the product at first, why you bought it, how you hope to use
it, and so on. Then you can tell your cyber-friends |
|
 |
out there, (the ones whose trust you've gained
through your
blog), exactly how the product came through for you.
You're
basically echoing what any purchaser goes through with
any
product, not regurgitating a lot of recognizable
affiliate
marketing jargon. Product reviews are highly
sought-after and
help make sales for you.
- Make sure everything you blog has content the reader
can
really use, and are not just sales puff pieces.
- For your affiliate marketing plan, you can attract
links with
blogs much easier than with normal websites, so do
remember your
slogan: Blog Every Day!
- As you build up
content, it will compound the effect of each single blog, and each
article will have a synergistic effect on the whole process.
- Save time every day to work on building a list. Once you have a
credible, substantial blog and a list to match, you're in the affiliate
marketing business!

Blog Archives
And Seo
Author: Chris AngusWhen most people visit your site,
the most articles that they
will see is anywhere from three to fifteen depending on
the
length of them and whether or not you have linked them
“behind
the fold.” Behind the Fold means that they are stuffed
in your
archives. Of course, this begs the question – are these
search
engine optimized blogs lost forever in the archives or
are they
still accessible to search engines.
The good news that even though your blog posts from the
past
are not displayed on the blog page but this does not
mean that
they are not accessible to the search engines or your
readers.
Most blog software and online providers supply some kind
of
archiving system so that readers can easily search your
blog
for other articles. In fact a little box that allows
your
readers to search a blog is a good plug in to look for
when you
are choosing a provider.
Sometimes the archives are listed in a separate list on
another
page by date or subject. On other templates, there may
be a list
of general categories scrolling down one side of your
blog that
people can click on to read other subjects. Another
possibility
is that a calendar object may be put on the page so that
people
can look up the blogs in the archive by date. Another
technique
is to keep all of your category headings for your blogs
as
keyworded titles and to maintain a lot of them. The more
categories you have describing your blog archives the
more
keywords you will have available to the search engines.
Even though these posts are not archived on your front
page
they are still searchable through the search engines.
The more
articles you have in your archives the more visible your
site
is likely to be in the search engines.
