4. Blogging builds credibility. As you get more and more into writing your experiences on a particular product or industry, your readers come to realize that they can depend on your posts for their own information needs. As such, you become an expert on it; as a consequence, more readers visit your site and more bloggers link to your blogs. As companies and professional organizations notice the growth of your readership base, they may soon get in touch with you for advertising on your blog page, or make you an affiliate, which pays for every referral generated from your blog site.

5. Blogging builds your market. Unless you are a Hollywood star, chances are, only your Mom reads your posts. Mom has a lot of friends, so she lets her friends know how interesting your blog site is. But you need not depend on Mom to increase your readership base. Look into the following ways to build your market through blogging:

-By using your e-mail. Today, blogging is overcoming the e-mail’s popularity in quickly and effectively reaching and expanding a market. In this age of speed and quick access, logging in and downloading e-mail is simply taking longer than clicking into a blog site. Let them explore your site by using a short e-mail message as teaser to your blog site. If your e-mail is on an entirely different subject, use your e-mail signature to give a link to the site.

-By using subscription. An easy way to get your readers e-mail is to give them an opportunity to subscribe to your blogsite. Keep some exclusive information for your subscribers to entice readers to subscribe and give their e-mail address. Just be responsible in using their e-mail address, as the last thing you want is a comment on your blog that you are a spammer.

-By understanding your readers. Conduct a simple survey for your readers to understand their profile and advertising preferences. Ask consumers to give you feedback on a post, an ad link, or a trial that you shared. In this way, it is like interviewing your readers without the commitment and intrusion of a face-to-face interview.

-By joining a blog network –A network of blogs maybe a collection of blog sites that share the same industry, interest, readership base, payment mode, etc. Consumers find credibility and convenience in clicking one link to several real bloggers about a single subject. Clearly, more bloggers are better than one.

-By using RSS. RSS is the fastest growing technology on the Internet today. As such, having RSS feeds to your blog is definitely another means of generating awareness for your readership base. Having a variety of feeds can add interest to your blog site.

5 REASONS FOR BLOGGING

PART ONE

Blogging is a concept that started in late 90s. It used to be a way to comment an existing webpage, an opportunity for visitors and readers to react or voice out one’s opinion on the said page. What started as a single-sentence commentary has evolved into pages of personal take on just about anything and everything under the sun. As it continues to move forward, online advertising has tapped into the blog’s potential. Here are 5 reasons why you should use blogging as an Internet marketing tool.

1.Blogging is simple. The simplest way to get your piece on the net is through blogging. No skills are necessary… an average adult can read and type, or at least click a mouse. It’s like having a virtual piece of paper and you just write your ideas, experiences, new products, and hope that the truth behind your articles comes out and entice your reader to also try your product. If you have a PC and an Internet connection (who doesn’t?) then you can blog and advertise.

2. Blogging is authentic. In this day and age where advertising saturate our lives, we question the credibility of promoters’ claims. However, in blogs, real people share their real-life experiences, unscathed by paid advertising. Reading blogs about first-hand product use is like talking to people about their first-hand experience. You definitely want to buy a tried and tested product.

3. Blogging is free. Because blogging is yet to be proven as a mainstream online advertising media, most sites see it as something to augment current marketing tools and thus offer it for free. Any opportunity for free webtime is definitely a bonus especially to businesses that are starting up. Needless to say, paid blog pages can generate more income for your seriously growing business.

So, if you are thinking to create a blog, whether for business or for pleasure, you need to know some tips that could help you get through and make your blog one of the interesting blogs online.

Here’s how:

1. Consider your audience

Even if your blog is generally personal, still, it would be better to consider the minds of your readers. You have to think of something that would interest them.

After all, most of the reasons of people who write blogs are not at all confined to their own personal motives. Most of them would love to be “heard” (or read) and would love to be known, in some way or another, even for just a minute. Hence, it is very important to come with a write up that everybody can understand, not necessarily that these people can relate to it but they can understand it.

2. Pictures speaks a thousand words

To make your blogging worth the browsing effort of your readers, it would be extremely nice if you will put some pictures in it. It does not necessarily mean you have to place a picture of yourself. Any photographs will do as long as it does not pose danger or insult to anyone who will be reading your blog.

PART ONE

If writing is an art, then, blogging is one way of using words to come up with an art. This is because people who are into blogging are the ones who are artistic on their own sense, carefully choosing words that would best describe their feelings, sentiments, wishes, desires, and everything.

Basically, blogs were first introduced as weblogs that refer to a “server’s log file.” It was created when web logging hit the virtual market. Since its inception in the mid-1990s, web logging gradually saturated the virtual community making the Internet a viable source of greater information.

However, with web logging, you still need a web site and domain names, but with blogging, you do not need anything just an account with blog providers. In most cases, these kinds of blogs are free of charge.

With the onset of blogging in the industry, personal journaling had been a common ground for people who wish to be known all over the world. However, not literally famous as this is not a case on being popular or well-known personality.

Generally, blogs are created for personal use. Like a journal, people can write their daily adventures, sentiments, and whatever ideas they want to express online.

Nevertheless, with the advent of the online businesses, blogs had gradually taken the limelight in providing businesses a chance to boost their productivity online. This is where the business blogs have taken the limelight.

Business blogs are, basically, created to advertise the services or products of a certain web site or online business in order to increase online sales.

Moreover, business blogs are also one way of promoting the company so that the other readers will know that a certain company exists online. With blogs, entrepreneurs are able to establish a name in the virtual market through articles that can be very useful in the reader’s life.

From there, you can make money out of blogs by simply syndicating it to your business’ web site. This can be done through the RSS technology.

WEBSITE: COMPANY ONLINE OFFICE

In some of my previous write ups, I frequently refer to the final movement of businesses and consumers online, and it is imperative therefore while moving with the trend, to know few things of what it takes to move your business online.
I will in the simplest terms explain some of the things you need to have in place for this beneficial expansion. I am not saying that you have to move online and abandon your offline business no, I don’t mean that, you operate the two together, moving online in this regards is to increase your cash inflow by opening “outlets” all over the world as you join the league of world top business magnate in the world wide web(www).
Some of what you need to put in place is as obtainable in the offline business.
1. Search for availability of company name(your chosen name).
2. Register the name (if the name is available).
3. Rent an office for the company.
4. Display your goods or equipment in the office.
These I believe are the four (4) basic things you need to do for you to have a company of your own offline. It is almost the same but with a difference in the terminology. Let now go through the requirements of setting up an online business.
1. Domain name: This is like the company name offline, therefore you need to search for the availability of a choice name, and if available, it will be allotted to you. As obtainable in offline in Nigeria this search for availability of company name is done through corporate Affairs commission, in charge of company registration, while in other countries of the world, there are similar bodies or commission saddled with such responsibility. As applicable in offline there are company/website saddle with such duties of registering Domain name and as such the search is done through them e.g. www.godaddy.com. , www.007names.com

2. Registering of Domain Name: If your chosen name is available, you then have to register it to become yours, without registration it is still anybody’s own. Please note that all the processes outlined here involve money as does the offline company incorporation.
Depending on the registering company and the cost for its services, e-mail addresses with the domain will be allotted to you it can be any numbers of e-mail. What this means is that you can in turn gives the e-mail addresses to your staff. E.g. if your domain is www.lookinggood.com, the e-mail option will be a choice name at www.lookinggood.com , for instance you choose to have “umar” as your email name(address), the e-mail will now read umar@lookinggood.com, you can give out any with the persons choice for the numbers you are allotted, and it can be anything @lookinggood.com .


3. Hosting of Domain: This process is like renting an office apartment offline, you are renting a parking space to park your website and as I said earlier there are companies/website for this and depending on their charges and duration for payment, you host your site with them for as long as you pay your dues/fees.
I will advice at this point that there are lot of website doing this, therefore you have every opportunity to make your choice because their price(s) differs. Look for the too cheap ones; you might not get the designed service you need.

4 Website Download: You are now ready to display your goods or equipment to your targeted audience viewing. The next and final stage is to download your website, if it has been design and print to it can be searched for and viewed. But on the other hand if you have not design your website, there are companies/websites that can do that. Note that there are companies/websites that offer some of these services (steps 1-4) for free, but for more recognition and value go for the paid services. Always check out their previous work to see if you love what the best affordable one. There are many to chose from so don’t be tempted by their talks of being the best. And more so website portrays you online as a result look for an expert who will give you the best. Check out some websites and see so many unprofessional website designers at work. You don’t need to fall victim to such, for I will not visit your website if it is unprofessional in nature.
