Build Blog Traffic Using Both Articles And Twitter.

Posted on by

We all want more Blog traffic and the best solution that I have found is using this simple yet effective three pronged attack using blog posts, articles and Twitter.

1. Adapting my best blog post into +- 300 word articles.

2. Publishing these articles on ezine directories that have Twitter feed.

3. Actively building a Twitter following.

More on each of these:

1. Publishing articles in a popular Ezine such as www.ezinearticles.com is a great way to exponentially explode your exposure and expertise to people interested in your topic. Why? Because they are searching for information in that category. A targeted prospect interested in your topic… Search engines such as Google have much regard for articles published here. One article of mine has being read by over 750 viewers since December and is still working for me.

2. Publishing these articles on ezine directories that have Twitter feed. Some ezines, (in the author tools section) manages your Twitter details in order to broadcast to your followers your newly published article details. Of course when they read it, in the resource box you lace it with a compelling offer to visit your blogs squeeze page for your news letter.

3. Actively building a Twitter following. On Twitter you can find an enormous amount of interested people in your niche or passion topic. These again are a targeted audience that you want frequenting your blog… so go out and follow them. What normally happens they reciprocate back. A great force to use.

These three elements, blogs, articles and Twitter are what I am concentrating on now that gets me my blog traffic.

The Solutions:

Niche Article Writing. Using articles as “YOUR Marketing Tool” to promote an online business.

Posted on by

Writing articles about your niche or for another word “passion” is a great way to start and promote an online business. You have this passion for something close to your heart and you want to share it? You may also want to earn a little extra on the side to make it a double whammy?

3 reasons why writing articles is a key to building an online business success.

1. Article writing as a marketing tool is a great free way to get out there and meet the world with your passion topic. All it takes is your time and a squeeze of your creative juices to get the ball rolling. This is because over time articles (including your authors resource box) gets copied and spread to other sites over the internet, goes “viral” so to speak with no extra effort.

2. Articles get published online on sites called ezines. The most popular that I know of is a site called ezinearticles.com. All that’s needed is a free registration. First read the rules and then submit your articles for approval. This takes about a week. Your article will be categorised according to your topic. This means it will be targeted at an audience that is interested and looking for what you offer. This gets the two of you to meet that starts that dance.

3. Articles can be crafted to help promote your name, logo, new product or anything else you wish. A direct sales pitch is out but a review could be in, such as “The Good, The Bad and the Ugly” style of approach.

More and more Smart Marketers are using articles as a tool to grow their niche online business. When opportunities come knocking it is time to ignite that passion and start sharing.

Top 3 Secret Psychological Triggers to use in article titles to attract traffic

Posted on by

I will probably get into big trouble for letting the cat out of the bag in sharing these secrets.

       In my opinion writing articles for ezines such as www.EzineArticles.com and leaving your blog url. in the resource box is one of the greatest ways to attract traffic and quality back links to your site. To create compelling article titles you need to use the AEDB formula that incorporate psychological triggers……

The internet surfers of the infosphere want fast and instant access to coercing data. They are constantly scanning for something to click on, you have less than 3 seconds in which to grab their attention. For this reason your article title is “king” and so need to understand and incorporate the psychological triggers that follow.

The AEDB formula.  (A= attention, E= emotion, D= desire, B= benefit)

1. Attention.

To get instant attention, the psychological trigger would be to be up front with words that either, question, shock, or are controversial, cause curiosity (what killed the cat? get your audience thinking), exciting and shows enthusiasm or tease. Use bold words and odd numbers, ” now what could the top 3 be? ” or even ” The top 10 “. From time to time try to off balance your audience by being controversial like, ” 7 ways to get your Pit bull and cat to become best friends”

2. Emotion and Desire. Powerful driving forces, so use words to match.

Warning! the 7 biggest article title mistakes you can’t afford to make… Emotions such as fear, desire, greed, compassion, revulsion, hate, love can be generated using carefully selected powerful words.

3. Benefit your reader.

You need to understand what the searcher wants and then figure out a title to match their needs. Article writers biggest need is to get a audience or traffic to that article, so after deciding where to place it, the greatest hurdle is getting attention by delivering:

 a solution,

solve or cure a problem,

find fulfilment, in the quickest, cheapest, leased painful way. Tell them ” What’s in it for them “. Tell them what they will get.

Give handy, useful, tips, lists, reasons or psychological triggers for reading your article and so attract traffic. These are article writers secret weapons that they don’t want you to know about. Use them with care in creating your titles in future.

Newbie Blogging Strategies to grow your on line business. Part 2

Ok, so you have decided on a niche to blog on, set up a Word Press, or a Blogging account, researched your niche and started blogging using all the tips given in previous posts of this Blog.

Great…. You have found products to promote, found ways to commercialise and capitalise your blog. Now how do you find and bring visitors to your on line web site?

Other than creating interesting and relevant content, using key word rich text, the next most important topic to cover is getting BACK LINKS to your blog.

Back links:

These can be created in a number of ways. Signing up with various Forums in your niche, leaving quality comments on similar blogs ranking high in Google search results, writing articles on your subject matter, to post on various Ezine publishers such as Ezine Articles.com, and always leave your blog URL and key words to link back to your site. You want your URL on other sites but not in a way to cause spam. This is the basic HTML code that you can use on most sites to get an active back link.

<a href=”http://www.domain.com”>www.yourdomain.com</a>   will become www.yourdomain.com

You can write anything where it says www.yourdomain.com such as click here or your keyword subject title.

All this is to get the search engines coming to your site. The more relevant these sites to your niche that you link to, the better.

Another way is to set up another 4 to 5 sub niche blogs related to your MAIN NICHE. As an example: Main blog is called:” Christine’s Golden Labrador Breeding Program”. Now create other blogs around it, like “How to raise your Golden Labrador puppies the correct way” and ” Where to Finding Suitable registered Golden Labrador Males to breed with” ect.

Once you have set up and created unique content for these sub niche’s, create cross links (Back Links) as above to all these sites. The search engines will soon be crawling all over these sites bringing visitors interested in your niche. This is some hard work, but well worth it. Stay focused on this, get it right and all you have to do is keep adding fresh material to keep it interesting.

Stay tuned for more newbie blogging strategies to grow your on line business.
