One of the best pieces of advice ever given to me about blogging was this:

“Content is King!”

Blog regularly, about three hundred words or more, and watch your audience grow.

Admittedly, it isn’t that simple. Keywords and a variety of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) factors come into play.

However, the BIG thing is:

Give your audience valuable information so they learn something and keep returning to your site.

• You’ll be seen as an EXPERT. This is important because:
  • People like to work with EXPERTS.
  • EXPERTS command more money for their products and services.

Expand the reach of your blog posts by doing the following:

• Get a FREE iTunes podcast channel or secure one on another hosting site.
  • Record your post and share it on your podcast channel.
    • BIG side benefit: Doing this will make you a better speaker and a better writer!
• Do video blogs.
  • Having your audience see and hear you builds your community. Your audience will feel they know you.
    • Place that video into your YouTube or Vimeo channel.
    • Download the audio from the video and place it into your podcast channel.
  • Place the transcript below your video.

Text – Audio – Video

Now, there are three places Google and audiences will find you!

• Use Email Marketing to send your audience a “teaser” of your post so they “click” on it and go to your site to read, listen to, or watch your message.

Your Posts will be Better if:

• When possible, follow this formula:
  • Make a Point – Tell a Story!
    • Facts and Statistics can be b-o-r-i-n-g.
      • Your audience will learn from and remember your stories.
    • When appropriate, make an emotional connection with your story,
    • Make them personal stores because no one, unless you’ve given permission, can tell your story.
• Use simple language in your stories.
  • If the verbiage isn’t easily understood you’ll lose the reader,
• Place high quality, universally interpreted images in your posts.
  • They must reinforce the story you are telling.

One of the greatest benefits is the knowledge you will gain by writing regularly because:

“The Learning is in the Doing!”

Blog regularly following the above advice and your presentations will be absolutely, positively – NO SWEAT!
