Setting Up a Free Blog

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

I found a short video on You Tube today that teaches people how to set up a free blog with blogger.com.

Blogs offer you huge marketing potential if you use them right. They key to running a successful blog is to publish in it on a regular basis. If you can type you can blog. It really is as easy as putting your thoughts in your blog.

Before you officially launch your blog plan think about what you want in it. Keep in mind that you’ll want to include an easy way for readers to respond to the content on your blog. Most blogging software such as Blogger have this feature already built-in to your blog with an easy ON/OFF switch to allow or not allow reader interaction.

Let your downline know you have a blog and intend to use it to recruit new distributors as well as you will post product and distributor training updates in it.

Here are a couple other things to be sure and do when you post a blog

1. You want to make sure you ping your posts. Pinging is done automatically on blogger when you set the ping box to yes. You will find this in the settings tab and then click on publish. You can use a service like Pingoat.com to ping your posts as well.

2. Join OnlyWire.com and bookmark your post to several social directories with one click. You will have to register with each directory one time first. Then submit your posts to over 15 directoires bringing you potential new visitors and business.

Once you get your blog set up be sure and post articles on it on a regular basis.
