1. What does it take to Market a Blog?

However, try to remember that just because you can have something doesn’t mean that you need it. Practice restraint and only choose the options that you think will really be useful. If you can find out how many visitors are reading your blog by checking your traffic statistics, a visitor counter is likely to add unnecessary clutter to your page. If your blog is text-based, a flashy background can be more of a distraction than a benefit. Be realistic about assessing what kinds of blog accessories will help you realize your vision and improve your site. Remember that even a blog tool that doesn’t cost you any cash may not be an asset in the long run.

1. What does it take to Market a Blog?

Blog marketing is a technique that many use. While not everyone that has a blog markets it the same way, they all generally have the same goal. Which are more traffic, sales, and readers. When you have all of these things, you were successful in marketing your blog. However, you should know that just because you have all of these things does not mean that you are done marketing. Actually, blog marketing is a never-ending task. There will always be some more things to complete, and you will never actually be done.

Marketing your blog consists of many things all used together to get the same finial result. Such as getting links to your blog or leaving comments on other’s blogs. Using SEO, which is search engine optimization, is another thing that is important in the world of blog marketing. You should use SEO on your blog just as you would a website. Doing so will get you higher in the search engine results and will result in a blog that anyone can find that is looking for the products or information that you have.

Make sure that your blog has the RSS feeds. Having these feeds will allow others to be able to link to you blog. Having many back-links a huge part of blog marketing. You will want to take advantage of them as well. When someone uses the RSS feeds from your blog, they are able to get the posts that you make, and will give you a link back from their blog, or website, on whichever they posted it. This is another excellent way to market your blog. In addition, back-links will get you the results that you are looking for. You can also use RSS feeds from someone else’s blog on your blog, and return the favor.

Blog marketing entails many things as you can see, whether you are blogging for a hobby, or an income is going to make a huge difference in the techniques that you choose to use, as well as the outcome. Be sure that you are using the best techniques that will get you the results that you want and that you are looking for. If you are not sure what that is, just wait before you actually start marketing your blog so that you will not be wasting time. Wasting time on something that you are not sure about, is almost as bad as wasting your hard earned money. Make sure that you are interested in everything that blog marketing entails is a great idea before you start marketing your blog heavily.

2. Choosing the Right Free Blogging Tools

The question a lot of my friends are asking me is:

How do I set up a simple blog (Weblog) website like yours?

The first thing you’ll want to do is know what web resources you’ll need and of course what you would like to name your blog.
That’s not hard, and here is what you need to start with:

The first thing you will need is a “Domain Name”

An easy place to register your domain name is the registrar I use Life Domains. They are real easy to use and also provide 1 year of private registration.

However, no matter where you register I recommend only registering there and hosting your website elsewhere.

You want to register your domain, which you own, with one company and host with another. In the event something happens to your host, the domain can be redirected to another host. Remember to always have your site backed up and backed up often.

Secondly you need to Set Up Your Hosting

A hosting service provides a place on the Internet for your website. It gives you space on a server computer and makes your website accessible to any computer attached to the Internet.

By placing your website on a server with a hosting company, you make your website available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. To ensure that your website is always accessible – or open for business – you want a reliable hosting service.

I highly recommend Host Gator for hosting your website. They have great support and they stand behind your business. One other key advantage of Host Gator is the ability to host as many website domains on the same account as you wish. Host Gator  has software programs included on their control panel (Cpanel) called Wordpress.org and Fantastico.

Wordpress.org is the software I use for this Blog and Fantastico is the program that is used to install a Wordpress Blog in about 5 minuets and installs directly to the host server. Don’t download Wordpress because as I said, it is included with the Cpanel provided by your host.

In all honesty, there is a free way to get started. You can use Wordpress.com. Check it out. I tried it out and got the basics down before deciding to go to Host Gator.
