How To Build and “OWN” Your Own Blog Website…

Posted on by

You have decided you want to “own” your own blog website for various reasons. The good news is it’s a very simple exercise and takes either one of two routes depending on the type of blog you want. 

1. For a personal blog where you want to simply sit at your key board and write a burp to what’s on your mind. This takes nothing more than going to:  http://www.blogger.com  to sign up for a new account, then follow their instructions and away you go.

2. For the more serious blogger who is interested in promoting them selves or their business the second route is recommended that will take time, effort and a little expense in buying a domain name, finding a web-host with a WordPress account (Recommended For Blogging) and setting up this way. To do it properly you have 3 options;

A. Decide to get a professional to set one up for you. The easy but expensive way as you will always depend on outside sources for further help as you will know little of the workings behind the scenes. 

B. Learn the ropes using all the free material on the Internet, such as http://www.youtube.com training videos to progress using a trail and error strategy. This is the cheapest method but most time consuming as you step through a mine field of the unexpected.

C. Learn through video to be taken by the hand in a step by step process, showing you the recommended resources, what to do and how to use them for the best blogging results. Putting a blog up is only half of the equation, the other half is setting it up to get visitors to know and come visit, called “traffic building“.

To help you set up your own website and autoresponder mailing list system, a membership site I recommend is the one that helped me set mine up. Your first months membership cost I think is $1. Try it out and see how easy it is to follow step by simple step video instruction. If you do not like what you see- cancel your subscription.

Newbies (Rookie Marketers)- Finding a mentor.

Hi every one,

Welcome to this blog. What I wanted to share with you today is the needed to find the right mentor. If you are interested in starting your own marketing website and dont have much internet/ marketing experience it can all be rather daunting. Thats why finding the right mentor is so important !!!!

Starting your own internet marketing business, to do it properly is far more than buying a domain name, a hosting account and then uploading some template . Remember out there, the competition is very stiff, with some extremely experienced and savvy marketers to contend with. To do well, good training from an experienced mentor is an essential part to anyones online success.

Now WHY would some stranger want to help you succeed. The reason is simple, to build a mutually beneficial relationship. If I can get you to succeed, you would trust me and we could build a working relationship to develope further. Two heads are better than one….. Its all down to building trust and  relationships.

There is so much information out there that it tends to make you lose focus. You need to be focused on one thing like a laser beam, learn all about it, perfect it, succeed in it. Remember incorrect action is better than no action….. doing something builds experience. This developes over time.  A mentor has been there and can lead you through this mine field, where everyone wants to just sell you something you don’t need. This business is all about selling ……not buying the latest, what ever !!!

As a Newbie finding a mentor would be someone who has your success in mind.

Good luck,
