Why are blogs a great marketing tool?

It’s actually pretty simple. Simple to set up, simple to maintain, and simple to learn. The benefit of a Blog is that within seconds what ever you discuss, talk about, blog about is available through the Internet. You don’t need to know any HTML or Programming, you don’t need to have any expensive programs like Dreamweaver or need to know anything about graphics. 

The word press community offer thousands of useful plugins and themes to make you blog appear and function to your own criteria.

Now the marketing benefits.  Through the power of RSS feeds and a few inbound links from other sites, your blog become cannon fodder for the Search Engines.

When marketing a product or service via a blog, make sure you mention your major keyword phrase in your title of your blog post. Add the tags with major keyword phrases. Link inside your blog post to the item or service you are marketing. Bingo.

The results: With in days (depending on your in bound links and keyword terms) you can rank very high already in the search engines.

I always look for something new, something people are talking about as far as my keyword terms. I blog about it. I get traffic. You see, with search engines if a topic or keyword phrase has millions of results, the competition for traffic is huge. However if the topic is fresh and new, there won’t be a ton of keyword terms already in existence and my blog post will rank high in the search results.

The best examples I can offer you are that of newsworthy items or TV related topics. People are interested and do look for more information about those events or “names”.  I am big into Reality TV, because a New Household “NAME” will appear every time a new Reality show hits. These Names are now “Searched Keyword Terms and Phrases“.

A great example is Donald Trumps The Apprentice. Every contestant is a new search term. I am sure you can think of something to set up a blog for an go to town with that concept ( something New..something you enjoy…something people talk about)

These Names and Searched Keyword Terms and Phrases, don’t have millions of results in the search engines because of there freshness and unique names. Therefore my blog posts rank for these names. As a result Traffic, as a result of the Traffic – Clickable AdSense income, click-thru affiliate products.
