The proliferation of new blogs in the last 5 years on the internet has been a remakable story.
But only 10% of blogs remain in existence at the end of this time. People get frustrated pouring their heart out in their blogs and seeing virtually no traffic to their blog. It is the equivalent of electronic tumbleweed blowing across their piece of the internet.
So what are the 3 golden rules for blogging successfully. . . and for profit?
Golden Rule 1
Content- Your content must be unique,fresh and your own. This means that copying and pasting articles from other blogs and sites is a major no no. Write in your own voice-this gives authenticity to what you have to say and allows you build a loyal and trusting following.
Golden Rule 2
Value- This flows from Rule 1 but basically means that you must give your reader value. This will involve providing him/her with new, relevant information which is of value to him. Sometimes it may be a different way of saying something or explaining something that is already in the public domain and freely available. But you need to package it in a way that is in your own voice and speaks directly to your target market and audience.
Golden Rule 3
Blog regularly- Your blog must be current and refreshed regularly. This way you will build an audience of engaged readers who through their comments and feedback will add more fresh content to your blog and allow you to build a relationship with them. It is this relationship of trust that will allow you recommend products with credibility and integrity when you wish to reap the benefit of your blogging.
Don't let yourself fall into the 10% who fail with their blogs and see the equivalent of electronic tumbleweed blowing across your blog within 6 months.
