Write A Blog For Business – It Can Be Fun And Profitable

Search engine optimization for blogs is easy to do if you follow a few rules.

To make sure that your main website gets noticed and your content absorbed, you need to attract search engines which then attract people who will read your posts.

When you become an expert (at least PERCEIVED to be an expert as your knowledge grows), people will arrive at your site to find out what you say.

And when you follow a few rules, you will turbo charge your work at home, get people AND Google to find you, and turn your words into gold.

Search engines (let's read that GOOGLE, as well as others) LOVE fresh content. Blogs are easy to update and add fresh content. And these days, Current Content will have a great impact than scholarly content that has been on a website for a long time.

Static isn't good. Current is.

Follow these rules to improve your blogging success:

1. Create a list of at least 50 keywords that apply to your business.

2. Each time you write a blog post, write on ONE topic… THIS post is about Blogging (it's not about guarantees or offers or direct mail – it's about writing a blog).

3. Write at least 2 times every week – you aren't creating huge novels, just some blog posts of great content. And as #2 said, keep the topic to ONE of your keywords and be sure to explain it fully.

4. Use Keywords in your title – notice how my title STARTS with the keyword? "Blogging – Optimize Your Posts For High Search Engine Results" is a much stronger title for Google than, say, Get High Search Engine Results By Optimizing Your Blogging." Can you see why? Words to the left and higher in the post are given more weight than words to the right (near the end of a sentence) and lower down the post.

5. Restate your keywords in your comments. When someone leaves a comment for you, don't even just say "thanks so much for your comment, I really appreciate it." Instead say something like, "Thanks for your comment about my Blogging for Business post – I appreciate your thoughts." Sometimes comments are read by themselves, and now anyone ready my comment will know WHY I was pleased that a comment was left.

6. Use keyword-rich anchor text to link your blogs. HUH? You know, text links that have your keywords in them. And then create links that point to your other blogs or your main website, like this: Business Blogging by Charlie Seymour Jr – Read UltimateWorkAtHomeDads.com blog – Click Here! Google will now find THIS post and travel along this anchor text to find my main site.

7. Have you noticed that I use text bolding on many of my keywords? Google sees that too, and it makes these words even more important. Google feels that if you use BOLD, ITALICS, UNDERLINE, etc (though usually I stay away from underlining since it can be confused with a live link), you are telling the reader that these words are important, and if they are important to YOU (the writer), they are important to Google.

8. Make use of H1, H2, and H3 tags. Often blogs will do that for you automatically. The title of this blog is automatically put into an H1 tag… but I often add more of these tags since I know Google Likes them. "Blogging For Business Can Be Fun And Profitable" at the top was put into an h2 tag, to tell Google I felt it was important.

9. Though you might not be able to see it, the "alt text" for that little line drawing of me at the top of this post has "Internet Marketing Expert Charlie Seymour Jr" in it. Google sees that and connects what was written there to the entire article. It's good if you can name your images with good keywords too, something I don't always do but know I should.

10. Use your keyword in the title, at the top of your post, AND repeat it at the end. You saw the title already. You can see that my h2 tag the word in it. And now look below to see that the last word I use is ALSO the keyword.

Don't over do these. Don't "stuff" your keyword everywhere you can – this needs to look and read well, but follow these 10 steps to improve your Search Engine results when you blog… and you'll be glad you did!

You, Too, Can Learn How To Turn Your Words Into Gold When Following Simple Steps To Profit

• Are you tired of spending hours on your website and blog and getting nowhere?
• Are you not building a relationship with people who might purchase something from you and they just pass you by?
• Are you losing money, taking steps backwards, and not growing a business that you have spent hours creating – making you nervous that you might lose your whole business?

Who Else Wants To Turn Their Words Into Emotional Responses By Buyers?

People often asked me, "Charlie, how can I write better so that after all my hard work, I can actually SELL my products and services?"

Like those asking me this, do you struggle when it comes time to write? Does it seem easy for others but not for you? Do you fear the time when you'll have something to sell but then you'll blow it when it comes to putting words in front of prospects?

You're not alone.

Other than Public Speaking, one of the things that most small business people fear is writing.

Even a blog like this one is a chore (painful chore!) for some people.

Believe me, I'm not a born writer. I didn't get A's in all my English classes. I haven't always enjoyed it or done well with it.

But once I learned how to do it, the fear fell away and my success started to rise.

After all, I sold more than $247 MILLION in real estate and most of it started with direct-mail pieces I sent out… so I had to be doing SOMETHING correctly.

Several years ago I LEARNED how to write for marketing pieces. I studied direct response marketing, Dan Kennedy, John Caples, Corey Rudl, and more. And now the list of those who have helped me is VERY extensive, including people like:

One-on-one, conferences and live courses, home-study courses, study by myself using their materials.

Each one imparted great information and understanding.

How can you learn all of this without taking the years of hard work it took me to learn this?

I've done the work for you! I worked hard to create great information for you and packaged it neatly to make your life easy. So you won't have to study: no long evenings, no grad school, no trial and error as you figure things out.

Even if you decide that you don't need my materials, you should look at the "sales letter" which uses all the tips, tricks, and techniques that I share with you.
