Why You Should Make A Blog
If you have a website you should have a blog to go along with it. Having a blog is one of the best ways to draw in some extra high quality traffic to your website. Making a blog is easy even if you have no clue what you’re doing, or where to start.
Don’t believe me?
Well then try it for yourself.
Blogger.com is probably the easiest and quickest way to get a blog up and running. You can follow the process and have your own blog in a matter of minutes. I recommend using Blogger if you are new to blogs, and you’re looking for the basics when it comes to blogging.
Wordpress.com is another site that offers free blogs. However in my opinion they are a bit more advanced and allow you to do a lot more then Blogger does. So if you have some computer skills, and are looking for something a bit more advanced then wordpress is probably what you’re looking for.
Now if you really want to get to advanced and you have some good computer skills you can host your own blog and change the theme like I did on this blog. You can do this by using Wordpress.org. You can download the files you need and upload them to your hosting server. Once you upload everything you can then start messing around with the templates. I only recommend this option for those who are more advanced.
Ok so once you have your blog what’s next?
Well now you need to add some content to your blog. Always remember that content is key. Google and all the other search engines love fresh new content, and favor sites with a lot of it.
Ok so now you wrote your first blog post what do you do next?
After you post to your blog the next step is to ping your blog, and you can do this by visiting one of these two sites Pingoat or Pingomatic. When you ping your blog is notifies the blog search engines that you’ve just updated your blog.
Once you write a couple posts and start to submit your blog around you’ll notice some new targeted traffic starting to visit your site. So again if your not blogging then you should really think about it, because you have no idea what your missing out on.
