Traffic Generation Part 5 – The Power Of Blogs

If you don’t have a blog, you are missing out on a huge opportunity. Simply put, blogs open up doors for you to certain aspects of web promotion, and make it a lot easier to rise up in the search engines.If your main website isn’t a blog, you could consider adding one, such as: http://mywebsite.com/blog which could then push people towards your actual website. Blogs are free. Popular blog software includes:http://wordpress.comhttp://blogger.comhttp://livejournal.comOf the three listed, I would suggest working with WordPress, as it is the most robust and offers the greatest amount of flexibility.One of the great things about WordPress is that there are many plugins that you can install (also free) that will further enhance your blog. This makes it possible to do things like notify the search engines when you have new content, automatically bookmark your post to the social bookmarking services, setup future posts to go live automatically, and more!Please refer to the Video to see me talk a bit more about creating a blog for your business.

  • I thought you lived in Bolton? Where did you pick up your American accent?

    Posted by Matthew Cain on 18 Dec 2008
  • I do live in bolton. I had the videos voiced by a good friend who is originally from America. Thought it would be a good idea as my accent is a little hard for some people to understand. I went on holiday to New York and they found it hard to understand me.

  • Shame. I always rated Sara Cox for her Bolton accent. Vernon Kaye – not so much.

  • My accent is harder to understand than coxy. My family speak proper old lancastrian talk.
