Entertain, Inform, Educate, Offer Humor and Value
A good blogger will inform, entertain, educate, offer humor and something of value in the article. The question I get here is “Do I have to be an expert in the subject? My answer is “Not really”. Some knowledge is best, but you can get that knowledge through studies, though, the Internet and through talking with people. Try to Google a subject, read a book or article on the subject you wish to write and blog about what you’ve just learned.
You will soon find that you become the expert that everyone is looking for.
In an earlier article, I spoke of a friend who writes about radiators. Was he an expert when he started…no. Is he an expert today…yes. Why? He learned through books other articles and visiting with the manufactures of radiators.
The five things your blog should do is
- Entertain
- Inform
- Educate
- Humor
- Value
Give your readers one of or all of the five areas and you will have a loyal reader and a possible sale to your product or affiliate product.
Internet Marketer List Building
If you are an Internet marketer, and your really should, use your blog to build your email list.
- Money Is InThe List
It has been said “the money is in the list”. The statement is more true today that at any time. Can you build a good business with out a list? Maybe. But today that is a lot harder than yesterday. A successful home base business is not confined to your city as it was with the Mom and Pop Stores. Your home business today is World Wide.
Lets say you come across a product you would like to offer to your email list. Without a list of current contacts, you are starting all over again. A very well known Affiliate marketer has an email list of over 300,000 people. When he is ready to introduce a new product, 300,000 people get a message. Does he make money with his list…of course he does. In fact he makes a lot of money with one simple email.
“Build a list and your home business will become very successful”
You Don’t have To Be An Expert
- You Can BeA Leader
This should be good news to people afraid to become a blogger. You don’t have to be an expert, you just have to know “a little more”. Be real with your readers. Avoid displaying yourself as the absolute expert in everything. Appearing to be an expert, when you’re not will drive your readers away. Keep this in mind at all times.
Can you “fake” being an expert….Ah maybe. Just let your readers know that if you make a blog post by using experts from other sites, give credit to the other sites. Over time you will soon become the “go to” person or Expert.
Your Blog Will Live On
Remember the blog you write today will live on forever. Be personal, be yourself and if you make a mistake on something learn from the mistake and move on. Everyone makes mistakes! Ultimately, people will want to read your content because of the unique spin you put on it.
