2. I wanted to make a powerpoint to show you
some blogging tips that I think could help you
rapidly increase the traffic you are getting to
your blogs.
Here are some advanced tips for after you
have everything set up so you know what
areas to focus in.
3. First, I want to talk about the big picture here...
the goals that we have for our blog and why
exactly we should increase our traffic. The main
three reasons for me are:
1. To Generate Leads
2. MLSP Sign Ups
3. Primary Company Sign Ups
The three main things you are going to need to
accomplish these goals are valuable
content, quality traffic, and an offer or opt-in
box.
4. First you need to think about what we will be
blogging about.
A few ideas for you could be to write about real
live stories from your life that are relevant to
your target market, in my case, other network
marketers.
Through these stories you need to display higher
value so that people know they can trust you
and that you are someone they would want to
work with. (Don't brag, but place spikes in your
articles that show that you deserve to be
followed.)
5. Some other blogging tips include writing articles
that are inspirational or motivational.
You can do product or service reviews, how-to
articles or tutorials, case studies, industry news
and updates, answer FAQ's, write essays or
tutorials, etc.
The main thing is to make sure you are writing
about things that are getting searches in the
search engines (you can check out google's
keyword tool to make sure).
I usually go for no less that 400 searches.
6. Just make sure you are blogging often so that
the search engines know that you are
committed to providing information.
You're not going to rank for Blogging Tips if you
don't have other relevant content on your site,
updated regularly.
I recommend writing 3 killer posts every week
and a couple posts in between to fill the gaps. I
bet you are asking "Are you serious? How am I
supposed to write that many articles?"
7. The answer is simple, outsource.
In the beginning for me, I didn't have a lot of
money and actually liked writing so I write all my
articles but for many people blogging is not fun
for them.
You can always go to freelancer.com or any
other outsourcing company where you pay
people to write an article, just make sure they
know what they're doing and you give them an
outline on what you want to be covered in the
article.
8. As I said, make sure you write 2-3 "killer" posts per
week, the posts that are going to define you and your
blog.
Fill in these other posts so that there is always new
content for your followers to read. Trust me, I know
it's hard...but the more you write the easier it
becomes.
You can also research things that interest you, and the
easiest way to learn something is to research and
write about it.
Just make sure you are improving your self
development everyday, then just write posts about
what you are learning.

tips have been able to help you in some way.
