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.

Disappointed with your article success?

Failing to optimize the article head line with treacle that attract the busy bees.

1. Identify with your audience, be up front with their need, fear, problem, desire, interest and then suggest a promise, solution or a offer that meets those needs. This suggests you understand and have aligned your article accordingly. A good example I saw once was, ” Are You developing a Pot Belly? This simple exercise that only takes 10 minutes a day….

2. Be Specific.- “3 Psychological elements….” “Copy this Easy 7 Step plan that earned $309.52 in 5 days…” This makes your article believable, that has substance worth reading. By using the words “copy” and “easy” gives confidence to the reader that they too could benefit. This forms interest and is compelling.

3. Seduce Your Audience with a promise that is just irresistible. We all want to be special, unique and above all want to benefit or get something for free. Remember always keep your promise, give value and go the extra mile…. This forms trust and a reader for life.

I suggest doing a search on your article topic and analyze successful headlines to see what captivates, prompts attention and action from you. This will give you a feel on how these psychological elements work so you to can incorporate them successfully.
