What Does Your Blog Need in Order to Be Successful?

Why do you blog? Do you blog to promote your business? Do you blog to support a product or a service? Does your blog have a narrow or broad focus?

Some people blog for personal reasons: they blog to promote a cause like the importance of cancer research. Some people blog to promote affiliate programs or to share their knowledge about a topic.

Others blog to promote their home business, to  differentiate themselves from the competition or to let people know more about the products and services that their company has to offer.

Regardless of why you blog, regardless of whether your blog is focused on one element of one service or around a network of products and services, you’ll find that your blog needs one thing in order to be successful; good, unique, original content.

Without regularly updated content, your readers will not have a reason to keep coming back to your blog. Without regularly updated content, your readers won’t be learning anything new from your blog.

At that point, no matter why you are blogging, you’ll start to realize that you are not accomplishing the goals that you set for your blog.

There are plenty of companies that will tell you what to do to find blog content. They will tell you that, in order to have a successful blog, all you need to do is visit article directories and repost content that’s relevant to your blog.

The problem is that, when you do this, you’re still not offering your readers anything new.

The next group will tell you that, rather than visiting article directories you should look into purchasing private label rights for content. Private label rights content can be eBooks or articles that can be broken down, sold, relabeled with your name or title or that can be rewritten: when you buy the rights, you can use the information.

In theory, private label rights content is only a good investment if you purchase it as a framework, an inspiration for creating something new. Many people however, use the private label rights content as it is.

They too, however, do not offer readers of their blogs anything new.

Even if everyone rewrote the content in the PLR articles they purchased, it would still not be original content. Think about it. 100 people buy the same article and each rewrites it a little.

Do you think that each of the 100 articles will be significantly different from the others?

Plus, when your readers find only the same information they find elsewhere, you’ll quickly find that they don’t keep coming back to your blog. The only way to hang onto your readers is to offer them fresh relevant content.

In order to provide the fresh relevant content that your readers are looking for, you have two options: write the content yourself or hire someone who will be able to write it for you.

While blogging enables everyone to be a writer, there will be times when you find yourself at a loss for words or too busy to contribute to your own blog.

These are the times when you will benefit the most from having a content writer. Your content writer can create articles of the length you specify, using your topics and keywords and provide you with content that is yours and yours alone.

If you’re looking for fresh content on a regular basis, there is an additional option. Rather than hiring a content writer to provide an article or series of articles,  you could hire a blog content provider who will manage your blog, optimize it for search engines and readers and create fresh content daily.

The right blog content provider can work with you to create a blog that meets or exceeds all of your goals whether you’re writing to promote a cause or a business. With fresh, relevant content each and every day, your blog’s readers will have a reason to come back again and again.

Why Should I Hire A Professional Blogger?

Whether you’ve been marketing your business on the web for years or you are just starting out and recognize that web marketing will greatly contribute to your business success, there’s one thing that’s key to keeping your company name on people’s minds; keeping a blog going daily.

With a blog, you’ll be able to keep fresh content on your website which adds values for site visitors and draws in the search engine spiders.

What many business owners find – those whose companies are well-established as well as those who are just starting out – is that it takes time to keep a website up to date.

They also find that keeping a blog can take a chunk of time out of their day, time that could be used for any number of other activities from taking client calls to checking on production to making sure that the bills are getting paid.

Often, despite their best intentions, business owners give up on posting to their blog whether they just give it up all at once or let their posts trickle off slowly.

All of a sudden, even though you know that you should keep a blog for your business, you’ll find that it slips off of your priority list and on to your list of things to do. And then you’ll find that it slips to that part of the list where things just stay either forever or until everything else on the list is something .

There’s a good way of avoiding the problem, however: hire a professional blogger to write the blog for your business.

Why would you hire a professional blogger? Well, to begin with, when you’re working with someone who operates a business dedicated to blogging that is staffed by trained bloggers, you’ll know that the person writing your blog knows the tips, tools and techniques that will draw attention to your blog. Not only will you be able to benefit from the blogger’s experience, but you won’t have to spend time learning the techniques or writing the posts.

While those are, in themselves, great benefits, the list doesn’t stop there. When you contract with a blogging company, you’ll know what you’re getting.

If you hire a blogger who will post to your blog daily, you can be sure that there will be fresh content added to your site each day. If you hire someone to post five times a week, you’ll have five posts each week. A professional blogger makes a commitment to you, a commitment that the job will be done.

As a result, you get all of the benefits that come with having a blog for your business – increased site traffic, incoming links to your website and a relationship with current and prospective customers – without any of the hassle.

You don’t have to worry about days without posts, coming up with content or staying on top of all of the latest tips and tools that bloggers use to get their work noticed. In no time, you’ll find yourself reaping the rewards of a well-written blog.

Should my blog be installed at my website or on its own domain name?

Company Blog

A company blog is installed onto the same domain name as your website. Your link might look like http://www.yourcompanydomain.com/blog. The benefits of having a company blog that we post original content to daily are;

1. Fresh Content. Adding fresh content to your website daily attracts search engines to crawl your website more frequently.

2. Search Engine Ranking. Each blog post becomes a new page, so we are adding a page to your website every day. Each blog post is optimized for your keywords, so each day we are building a page that has a chance to rank well in the search engines.

3. Branding and Reputation Management. Reputation Management is something you have to be proactive with. Each blog post we make contains your company name, so each day another page is created that gives your company a postive image.

4. Feedback and Announcements. The blog is less intimidating to potential customers than your website. It gives them a place to ask questions and give you feedback. The company blog also gives you a place to make announcements, publish press releases, and make special offers on your products and services.

5. More Traffic to Your Website. We include the basic social bookmarking service with our daily blog posting service. This attracts more visitors to your blog. More visitors to your blog means more visitors to your website. We encourage them to visit you within blog posts and in the links we add to the sidebar.

There are a lot of other benefits to our daily blogging and social bookmarking service not listed here. If you have questions or wish to set up a meeting to talk about how a company blog can benefit your business, call 786-317-8774 or Use the form at the bottom of this page to contact us.

Business Blog on it’s own Domain Name

We can help you be creative with this. You may have a website you want to promote or you may want to run a blog instead of a website where the blog is your business. Or you may want to capture a specific search phrase. Here are some ways you can use a blog on it’s own domain name to benefit your business.

1. Targeted Traffic Example; You own a company with a website that sells software. We setup a blog on another domain name and do software reviews. We review a lot of free software that is available for download. In some blog posts we do a positive review of your software and links in the sidebar encourage people to visit your website or take advantage of special offers. This helps with branding, increases sales, and even helps build link popularity for your website.

2. Store Front Blog. Example; You own a website that sells clothing, artwork, or other products that people like to see before they buy. Each blog post is about just one product you have for sale. The blog becomes your online store window. It will also help you rank well in the search engines for each particular product we blog about. This can also be done with a company blog installed on the same domain as your website.

3. SEO Blog. (Capturng a Search Phrase). We have been extremely successful at getting a blog to rank high in the search engines for a particular key phrase we want to target. We help you choose the right domain name. We install the blog there. We optimize the blog template we choose for you. We post to that blog daily and use social bookmarking to help build links and traffic. We will be able to get that blog to rank well for your keyphrase. How long that takes depends on the amount of competition for that keyphrase. We have examples we can show you where we have done this for our clients.

Blog Content Drives Traffic – Plain And Simple

There are two posts that stand out today and both reinforce our message that content, regular content, is one of the surest ways of gaining a decent rank in organic search results. Blogs and blog content is one of the easiest ways of publishing that content. Hiring a blog writer makes the task even easier. So what are those two posts?

The first one almost screamed the message – The Most Amazing Sentence On The Internet. And it was. What was the sentence?

No other marketing piece can do what adding fresh content to your web site can.

Do you view content as a marketing tool? It is, in fact, almost everything you do to a website or blog has some sort of marketing effect. Adding fresh content, particularly content that users find helpful is very definitely marketing. I repeat my earlier statement – blog content is one of the fastest and easiest ways to add that content. You don’t need any special programming skills; if you can open a word-processor then you can open a blog and create content. If you don’t have the skills or talent to create content, think again. Almost everyone can. Of course, if quality is your benchmark, then by all means hire a professional content creator.

That leads me to the second post that stood out today – Do you need a website content writer? This type of post is starting to appear quite frequently across the net as more and more people realize they have writing skills and can sell their services. As a website or blog owner, the key is to weed out those who are not as skilled as they profess and to find writers who are skilled. This is where a professional blog content service comes into play. They have proven track records and experience in not only providing the content, they can also provide a range of blog services such as comment moderation and blog maintenance.

If you’re running a business, can you afford to not use the services of a professional blog management team.

Becoming A Blog Content Provider To The World

If you are a good writer and you’re looking to make a little extra online, or perhaps or looking to boost your inbound links, becoming a blog content provider could be the answer. Blog content providers, as the name suggests, provide content for blogs – blogs that they don’t own. There are several ways to approach this. If you are approaching this from a business perspective, then you need to ask, How Big Does Your Online Business Need To Be?

I suggest starting of as a small player and letting your reputation help you grow your business. There are several good articles around that can advise you on How To Be A Web Content Provider! Essentially, you can:

Be a ghost writer for other blogs. As a ghost writer, you remain anonymous to the world. The blog content appears as if the blog owner had written it themselves.

Be a guest writer for other blogs. Ghost writers are generally paid while guest writer provide blog content for free, apart from a link at the end of the post. Guest writing is a good way to gain inbound links, traffic, and to develop your reputation.

Be an ebook creator. Perhaps the hardest is to write ebooks. You can often use content that has been compiled from your own website and put it all together as an ebook. Alternatively, you can create fresh content. You will need to learn how to put together an ebook including Ebook Design (PDF). You can then use other blogs to promote your ebook gaining both links and income. Using other blogs to sell your ebook on a commission or affiliate basis has become very popular.

Transcription services. Whilst not proving blog content, becoming a transcriptionist is another area where those good at English can excel. It’s not for everyone, however if you know What Differentiates a Good Home-Based Medical Transcriptionist From a Bad One? and you fit into the mold of a good one, then there is certainly a good living to be made.

If you can write content such as this, Private Schools and Education Itself a Luxury for Some then you should consider a career as an online writer. Being a blog content writer is just one area that you may find lucrative.

Business Blog Consultant – Why Do I Need One?

Most people think; “Blogging? How hard can it be?” or “Of course I know how to blog”, or even; “I’ve been writing my personal blog for a long time now and I know all about blogging.”

Okay . . . You run a business. You’ve spent thousands of dollars to develop and promote your website. Now you’ve decided to have a business blog. Mary Sue and Billy Bob, who work in your marketing department and handle your offline marketing both have blogs. Mary Sue is on MySpace and Billy Bob has a blogger blog.

They tell you they can handle all the blogging. no need to outsource. After all, Mary Sue has 112 friends on MySpace and Billy Bob’s post about bull riding on his blogger blog had 32 comments! And they both know offline marketing! Wow! You are in good shape aren’t you?

First: Offline Marketing and Online Marketing are two different animals altogether.

Second: Writing a personal blog and managing a business blog are also two different animals. There was no money invested in mary Sue’s MySpace blog or Billy Bob’s Blogger blog. Your business did not depend on those blogs.

I have a client that shall remain nameless, but they are a multinational corporation. The person I deal with understands the different ways blogs can be used for business, but some in their marketing department do not. Their company has several blogs that are written internally and they send out a newsletter to promote them.

Their mailing list is huge so they do get a lot of visitors to their blog. They have a lot of pride in the number of visitors they get and rightly so.

However, since I do the SEO for some of their websites, I keep up with how they rank in the search engines for their targeted keywords and phrases.

None of their 12 blogs rank for any of their search phrases. Their websites rank very well. But the blogs do not. They have about 60,000 unique visitors per month to those blogs so they have the traffic, but it’s all from the newsletter.

So basically, except for a few new signups each month for the newsletter, the same 60,000 people visit those same blogs every month. if they have not sold these people something yet, will they ever? It’s like preaching to the choir.

We set up a blog for SEO purposes and within one month we were ranking on the front page of Google for the targeted keywords. The first time their company has had a position that high for those phrases. But it did not have 60,000 visitors yet.

It also was not promoted in their newsletter. Ahhh, so you want me to get the same number of visitors that you get to your other blogs, but you don’t want to give me that same tool you use to get them? I see.

However, the visitors we get to the new blog are NEW visitors you never had before. A large percentage of them visit the website we are promoting. And a good number of those have converted to leads.

I know, imagine that. Here I am more concerned with higher rankings in the search engines for their keywords, getting NEW visitors to their blog, generating leads and what their conversion rate is. Shame on me.

We tried to offer them a course on how to do a little better with the search engines on those blogs they write, but their marketing people and inhouse bloggers said, “We get 60,000 visitors per month to our blog, so we don’t need to learn anything new. As a matter of fact, we are going to start writing the blog that you guys created for us.”

Are you one of those people who think you know all there is to know about writing a business blog and think you do not need to learn how to improve it? if so, you wasted a lot of time reading this post.

However, if you are not one of those people and you truly want your business blog to be a success, give us a call at 786-317-8774 and we’ll give you a free business blog consultation. What have you got to lose?

Why Do I Need a Blog?

Why do I need a business blog and why should I hire someone to manage it for me?

Most bloggers, even those who have been blogging for a long time, do not truly understand all of the ways a blog can benefit your business. They are good bloggers. They even may know a little about SEO and can put all the keywords and phrases into your blog. But do they really know about blog marketing and what the benefits are for their clients? Do they really know SEO or the technical aspects of operating a blog?

Blog Management and Marketing

Blog Content

Your blog content will make a lot of difference to how well you do with both the search engines and with visitors. Whatever your goal is for your blog, to make your blog popular to read, to make sales, to drive traffic to your website, to get people to sign up for something like a newsletter or affiliate program, or something else, you will need good, original content.

Not only do you need good original content on your blog, you need it every single day.
Blog search websites like technorati.com and Google’s BlogSearch list blogs by the most recent posts that match the user’s keywords. If you are not posting daily, you can get buried beneath all of the other blogs that do one post or more every day. Our daily blogging service will make sure your blog is updated every day or more often if you choose that option.

Blog Posting is more than just writing. If you want your blog to be interesting to user and also rank well in the search engines, you need to know how to structure your blog posts properly.

Do you know the proper way to write your blog post titles?

Many people try to automate the process for that reason. Automated social bookmarking will not get you all of the benefits that social networking will get you if you take the time to do it yourself. Most business owners do not have the time it takes to participate on these social networks. That is why Blog Content Provider does it for you.

Blog SEO and Programming

Blog Installation

Wordpress claims you can install wordpress in just 7 minutes. Some cpanels have fantastico that will automatically create a database and install wordpress for you. But is that all there is to installing a wordpress blog? No. There are better ways to securely install a wordpress blog on your server.

Then you need to choose the right plugins to enhance the usability and improve the SEO of your blog. Every blog is different. Every blog has different goals and obstacles. So choosing the right plugins is more than just going to someone’s favorite list of plugins and using them all.

Some blog service companies brag that they install wordpress with more than 80 plugins! Wow! 80! How many of those plugins do you really need? Usually just a few. We securely install your wordpress blog and choose plugins for you that fit your specific needs. Read more about Blog Installation.

Blog Setup and Configuration

A lot of people will tell you that choosing the settings in the admin area of your wordpress blog is self-explanatory. To who? There are a lot of choices to make in the admin area.

An experienced Blog Manager knows which settings are best to use from experience. For instance;

Do you know the best sites to put into your ping list?

Do you know the proper way to create categories?

Post Slugs?

Is time-stamping a good idea?

Do you know how to configure all of the plugins or get an API Key?

Our Blog installation specialists will set everything up for you. Read more about Blog Configuration.

Blog Theme Installation and Editing

Here again, it sounds easy. You choose a theme, upload it to your themes directory, and voila! You’re done right? No. Choosing a theme isn’t as easy as it sounds. There are tons of free themes on the web. You could buy one from a designer. You can have one custom made for you.

Do you know a good theme from a bad one? I mean besides how pretty it is. Did you know that sometimes free themes have hidden malicious code in them, put there by the programmer/designer?

Are you able to determine good code from bad code? Is the code in the theme written in a way that will hurt your chances in the search engines?

Do you know how to edit the php in the header.php file, sidebar.php, or footer.php to add the enhancements that will make your blog both more attractive and more productive?

Choosing the right theme for your blog is more than just finding one that looks nice. You do not need to have a custom blog theme built. You can use a free blog theme. But you need to know how to choose the right one. Our Blog Installation Service includes choosing and installing the right theme for you. If you want a custom theme, you can read more about Custom Blog Themes here.

Is There A Blog Content Wholesale Market?

Blog content is a necessity. In today’s Internet marketing climate, if you don’t have a blog then you’ll fall behind in both the search engine marketing arena and the social media marketing arena. That makes blog content the most important content you can own. Not only should you ensure that you have daily content on your blog, but you should ensure that customers you serve have it as well. But who is going to provide that content?

You have choices. In order to keep your blog updated daily, you can choose from among your options:

• Do it all yourself
• Hire a ghostwriter
• Use articles from article directories
• Rely entirely on guest bloggers
• Purchase PLR articles and turn them into blog posts
• Use a combination of these methods

For most businesses, the first option is the best. If you can write your own content then you should. But there may be obstacles to you doing that – time, inability to write, lack of tools or knowledge to use them, no understanding of SEO and best practices, to name of a few. That’s why hiring a blog ghostwriter is a very close second best option and is the actual best option for many businesses.

If you only use articles then you aren’t putting unique content on your blog every day. If you rely solely on guest bloggers, you won’t content on your blog every day. If you use PLR articles then you’ll find yourself spending more time turning them into usable content that provides you the benefits you are looking for in a blog. That means you are stuck with either doing it yourself or hiring a ghost blogger. And, let’s face it, a good number of your customers and business associates are in the same boat. But who has time to do it themselves?

Most small business owners struggle to take care of the tasks they are currently performing, let alone adding the daily posting to a blog. But you can actually pay for your blog every month by reselling blog services and taking a commission. All you have to do is identify the need and communicate it to the right people.

The wholesale market for blog content is there and no one else is meeting that need. We do.

Should You Join The Blogosphere?

There are two types of blogs. The blogosphere blog and the commercial blog. Blogosphere blogs get the most attention, but make the least amount of money. There are, of course, the superstar blogs that fit into the blogosphere category – Problogger, ArsTechnica, Dosh Dosh … I could go on naming many more. But the great bulk of blogs that fall into the blogosphere category don’t make a dime. That doesn’t mean they’re bad blogs; they just aren’t making any money.

You know a blogosphere blog when you see one. They love to link out. The idea is to be “connected” to the broader web. To converse with other blog owners. To share. Touchy-feely, you know.

There’s nothing wrong with that, but not every blog has to be a blogosphere blog. Commercial blogs are different.

What Is A Commercial Blog?

A commercial blog’s primary purpose is to promote a business. It can be on the business’s website or on another website and link often to the business site it promotes. Either way is fine. But a commercial blog exists primarily as a promotional tool.

There are two types of commercial blogs: The strictly promotional blog and the social blog. The promotional blog is there just as a promotional tool. Nothing fancy. The social blog is a bit more than a simple promotional tool. It is more versatile and flexible. In many respects it resembles the blogosphere blog. The primary difference is that it’s not an engagement blog in the same manner than a blogosphere blog is; again, the social aspect of the blog is designed to be self promotional while providing maximum user benefit.

Which blog is right for you is largely determined by your goals. You can use any of the blogs for specific purposes related to marketing your business. But you always want to use your blog to drive traffic to certain parts of your website so that you can drive that visitor into your sales funnel. The goal of a commercial blog is always to gain a new customer.

For Sale Blog For Sale

Blog Content Provider is offering a blog for sale. The For Sale blog is an awesome tool for link building. Each time you link from the .pn domain name you get a good inbound link that the search engines count toward your link popularity. Fill them with anchor text and you can have relevant links pointing to any domain name, or every domain name, that you own.

If interested in the For Sale Blog, all you have to do is visit the blog and contact us through our contact form link in the blog post with your offer. Create your own business plan around the keyword phrase “For Sale”, build back links, and fill this blog with useful content.
