The Bloggers Most Overlooked Blogging Tool!

Posted on by

======================================================

I heard the Australian Author Clive James say “He turns a phrase to catch the shine on it”. 

What is it about words and the way we use them that makes such a dramatic difference to the way in which they are perceived? With new modern scientific advancement in technology, new frontiers are daily opening up our understanding of our mind and the way we live within our world.

What’s this to do with blogging? Well…

Scientists are now discovering what writers have known all along; words are not only understood but also felt! Our understanding and perception of words is influenced by our past and present experiences.

For example if I said “flushed”; what’s your immediate thought that comes to mind?

Would it be a picture of some horrid thing getting flushed away down the drain?

That experience of your last embarrassing or awkward moment?

Some juvenile emotion when meeting your teenage heart throb idol?

Could it be that intimate expression with your loved one or the idea of some heat flush caused by menopause?

You see your interpretation could be different for each stage of experience from your life.

The words we use make word pictures. We feel words and certain words form pictures in our minds.

 I love the word “crisp” for instance, the crunch of fresh lettuce. A still winter’s morning, with snow hanging on the trees while breathing dragons breathe with each new exhale. Crunching on my favourite potato chip.  For you “crisp could mean something more?

Blogging is all about conveying thoughts, dreams, desires, experiences and ideas through the words we choose to best describe them. So the bottom line as a blogger; you need to identify who your prospect reader is and tailor your blog post to speak to them at their level.

Starting A Blog In The Self Improvement Niche?

Posted on by

I remember before I first started this blog I could not decide what niche to write about. Since I was wanting to learning how to start a blog, I thought “I know, I will just blog about what I am busy with”! I was interested in blogging and reckoned on other people also wanting to learn how to start. I could blog about my growth, with all my mistakes and show others how to do it and avoid my errors.

As I found new information so I had new material to share. It was fun and exciting as I overcame new daily challenges. Now if you are thinking of going into the self improvement niche, I have something to share with you, but more of that in a moment.

Thinking about what you want to blog about can be a biggy. Do I have enough knowledge about this subject? Are there people interested in this to make my blog popular, so to make it worth my while? What benefit will I give to my readers? Will I continue to enjoy blogging about this? These are some of the questions that were running through my mind at the time. Perhaps these are some of your thoughts at the moment? If yes I have some great ideas to help you with.

I have come to realise how vast the self improvement industry is and the huge need there is out there…

Take for instance the searches made on Google for depression and anxiety. See for your self;

Go to: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal and type into the search box ”anxiety”. There are over 2 million searches made on Google alone. In this financial unstable time, there is a huge need for help in this area.

Do you think your blog could be popular if you could help people in this area? Perhaps you may have suffered from anxiety at some point in your life and can empathise with others.  What did you do to get over this? Could you write about this? Do you think that you could monetize your blog in this area? Sure you could, there is a huge demand for these types of products!

Or have you or are you trying to quit smoking? Have you ever suffered from low self esteem? As you can see the list just goes on. There is little wonder that this subject of “self improvement” is a multi billion dollar industry and could be well worth your while.

To make it even easier for you to get your own quality products to promote on your blog, my partner has just released a Self Improvement- Private Label Products site;  PLR-Self Improvement.com. With these newly released information products; you can sell, break them down into lots of smaller blog posts, use them as articles to publish and brand yourself on other sites. In fact you could do basically do what you want with it.

For anyone starting out in the self Improvement niche this is a great opportunity to get for yourself further ideas and materials to blog and promote. Just click this link and you will be taken straight there: http://plr-selfimprovement.com/

To your continued success.

Your Path To Self Discovery For Richer Written Blog Content.

Posted on by

Blogging is pursued for many reasons and has its benefits, here is a proposal for another hidden reward if approached from a different angle. An angle of self discovery. Many miss this important side to writing that grows and matures us both mentally and spiritually. This brings with it provoking insights and innovative thinking to help us write our blog posts filled with richer, meaningful content.

When talking about self discovery, what I mean is discovering, understanding, then learning to tune into your inner workings of how your subconscious and your conscious work in unison. Once understood, you can learn to work with this relationship to become a better thought provoking writer. A thought leader in your blogging niche.

All successful writers operate in more than a mental capacity, they have learnt to operate in a larger arena that many have not yet learnt to use. By digging deep within them selves, they unearth missing clues, conundrums, ideas, insights which have gone on to inspire their readers. Using certain techniques, these writers have become the thought leaders of their time.

They operate in more than a conscious level, they have learnt to mine all their past and present experiences- their collective whole. They do this by engaging their subconscious mind, which works 24 hours and seven days a week to source information, analyze, make sense of it all, to then come up with answers to previous questions put to it.

It is important to understand how the brain operates so you can capitalise on this wondrous creation. When you walk into a room all your senses are on full alert, eyes, ears, our sense of smell and feel. The eyes for one, take a complete picture of it, just as a camera would. All this detailed information would just boggle your conscious brain, so this information goes into your subconscious for sorting and storage.

All the important aspects relevant to you at that moment are given up to your conscious and those are what you are made aware of, the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and textures that your subconscious knows are placed high on your priority list. This conscious side processes this information which then directs your thoughts, decisions and emotions. It is so busy with running your life that not much attention is directed to what else your subconscious has to offer.

The consequence of this is, most of this logged material gets buried or made redundant as new stuff becomes available. The good news is most of this is retrievable and accessed to add richer colour to your writing that you never knew was there. There are techniques you can learn that will help you get access and tap into this wealth of knowledge and experience.

The subconscious is more than just a storage facility, it is also a dynamic and powerful processor for creative and innovative thinking. This is where your genius lies, by simply learning to tune into your still small voice, amongst all the chatter, is the path called self discovery. By doing this, a new dimension to your blog writing will emerge, by producing richer, more interesting content. The great thing is any one can get access to it, if that is what they really want.

Blog To Create Income.

Posted on by

Blogs are a very easy way to create an income online. They are very simple to set up and because content is regularly updated, search engines give them more importance. This is a valuable asset as this becomes the engine for future “traffic ” that drives your monetizing efforts.

A blog can be an excellent foundation to create income on line, both through advertising on site, together with what can be promoted through it. You may have heard that the money is in the list, well this is true. Focus on building a large targeted list of potential prospects (Names and Email addresses) as the generator of your future blog sourced income. The life blood to your blog.

This is Why…Gone are the days of cold selling. Buyers now days tend to go where they are comfortable and familiar. A blog is the ideal medium as a meeting platform between you and the public. They hopefully like what they see and read from you. This is the base from which to work and build a relationship of trust with those who like your style.

Again, keeping in mind that the money is in the list, your aim now should be to steer your visitor towards what is called a ”squeeze“, “landing“, “opt in” or “capture page“. This can be done in a number of ways, the simplest would to offer a freebie in exchange for their name and email details. The idea is to communicate and warm your relationship as a reminder of the benefits and services you offer.

It is no good having a shop on the corner if no one knows about you, even if you offer the best and most reasonable products. E-mailing you list is your way of reaching your potential customers with something of value to them. This process can be very easily automated to earn you income even in your sleep. So blog to create income…
