How to Make a Successful Blog

You decided to create a blog for your business? You wonder now, how to get the blog to be an effective marketing tool and not just another part of your website? You've come to the right place.

Among the strategies of Inbound Marketing, maybe the most import one is attracting customers with relevant content and not throwing away money on expensive advertising campaigns, here is where the blog plays a very important role. The blog can give your website more visibility in the search engines and therefore more targeted traffic as long as you provide quality content.

I will try, in the following paragraphs, to give you some detailed and practical tips to help you make your blog an effective marketing tool.

Tips for Creating a Successful Blog


Invite your readers to subscribe


Many individuals and companies underestimate one important fact: the loyal readers. They grasp relevant content and  they will return for more on the same blog or website, for free. As more people subscribe to your blog using their email, you will have more chances of success in your marketing strategy. By them subscribing to your blog, you can get inside their email boxes to announce new articles on your blog. This is a win-win situation because they return to your website for more new interesting information. By the way, you can subscribe to my RSS too. :)

Use your Blog and Website under the same domain


One of the biggest benefits of creating a blog is that as you post new content, you actually optimize your website for search engines. If you hoste your blog and website under different domains, you actualy would reduce the optimization level and affect the performance of both. You might even make them compete in serp (Search Engine Results Page).

Use the calendar before posting an article


All the blog readers like to have new content available on a regular basis and they tend to establish a routine. The Scheduling Tool is very helpful. Whether you will publish monthly, weekly, daily or several times a day, publish articles in your blog periodically. Do not post as soon as you have written the article. The Search Engines also tend to send their spiders to crawl a page on the same routine, if there is one.

Post more articles to get more traffic


If the traffic that your blog gets is not meeting your objectives, publish some extra articles, the  posts that you programmed into your calendar are not set in stone. Publishing some good articles about some current issues, trends, important events in your niche is usually a good idea.

Add some buttons to ease the sharring on social networks


The share buttons on a blog are one of the most important elements. How else will your visitors share this engaging and entertaining article you just posted? Remember that the success of your blog is based on how many people read it and sharing means free advertising, free exposure and a free ticket for your content to get viral. And take into account that the share buttons will more than doubled the visibility of your blog posts.

Bloggers Basic Tools (I) - Niche

Starting a blog may seem hard work, especially if it's your first blog, but with the right guidance, some "don't try this at home" and some "do try this at home",  you will quickly realize that you made it. Let's see if we can make an easier start for you.

You can consider that your blog is your pet, you will need to feed it or to make its toilet just like for any other pet. Your blog will eat texts and sometimes pictures. You can call your friends to come over and socialize with it. In order to have your new born blog to grow big and strong you will need to administrate it vitamins and the best vitamins for a blog are back links. Unlike many other pets, you can let your blog grow bigger and bigger and not having your mother complain about that she cannot have a shower because your alligator is having lunch in her bathtub. You can teach your blog to do tricks and attract new friends and soon enough there will be one thousand people that you can call your visitors. As your pet, your blog represents you, it has a part of your personality, like a mirror of your thoughts and skills.

Your blog can have different purposes, depending on your preferences. You can have a personal blog,a place to express your feelings and your opinions. You can share your day by day experiences, you can publish pictures from your trips or any personal things you want to make public.

You may choose as well to make a blog to earn money. Of course, you can earn with your personal blog too, but a real money maker blog is more than a personal one.

First you will need a niche for your blog. A niche represents what are you going to write and who will you write for. If you want to make money, creating a very well defined niche blog is a very important key in getting what you are looking for. Think about an area you would like to write about, or a subject you know a lot about and that's it! You found your niche!

Here you have some reasons why finding a niche to blog about is so important:
  1. The niche blog is indexed by Google much easier. If you write about one subject, all your posts will contain similar keywords, so the Page rank has big chances to grow faster.
  2. Niche blogs are more credible.
  3. Niche blogs make more money. And this is because if someone gets on your blog, he/she arrives there mostly because he/she is really interested in what you wrote and this gives more chances for him/her to become your reader and why not, your buyer.

When choosing the niche, a smart thing to do is to know your competition. Google makes this all easier. You just have to go at Google Adwords page and to use Adwords key tool.

Free Unique Keyword

Today I checked Webmasters Tools,  provided by Google, to see what keywords found Google related to my blog. And I was very surprised to see that Dorin Hornea, writer of this blog, is listed there. His name became a keyword. So I entered his name in Google and I discovered our blog on the first page.  Then I tried it using my name "Ema Ile" and guess what? I had to surf seven pages to get to my blog. Why? May be my name is to close to "e-mail" and it is harder to identify it. Anyways, I wonder how many more posts do I have to write to be considered a keyword?

The point is: use your name to sign your posts. And if you don't find it original enough, choose an original nickname. That way, any search on your name, will lead to your blog.

So, make yourself visible, brand your name and keep blogging!

Another Thing You Must Consider While Blogging

 I made some research today about PageRank and I decided to share all I found about it, since this blog is meant to tell you everything about how to make yours to work. And the rank of  the blog has much to do with it being a successful one or not.
 So, PageRank is a link analysis algorithm. It earned the name from Larry Page, the developer of the algorithm and Google's co-founder.  This algorithm is used by Google Internet search engine to calculate the importance of a page, considering the referral links and quotations that the page has. In English, the image looks like this: it has more impact when a big dog runs towards a small dog then when a small dog runs towards a big dog, no matter how loud the little one barks. What I want you to know is the relevance of exchanging links and making yourself visible in this picture called the Internet. The image below represents mathematical PageRank for a simple network. Every circle is a page and every arrow indicates the references.




Now you can check the rank of your blog thanks to GoogleRankings, a free tool offered by Google. You just have to go to this page, complete the required fields and click the "what's my rank" button.


I think someday anyone can be a big dog. Till then... write more and smile as well. Thumbs up!
