Blog Marketing Tips # 9 "Content The Other Forms"

Content is king, we always hear that from popular webmasters and marketers, but the question is What is content? We usualy take the meaning of web content for granted as the text that is written on a website or blog neglecting the power of media, but actually there is more to it then that. Content is any form of data that you show on your site or blog, which means that even your image in your about me page is considered content, yes that's true, and to prove it if you have an image like that and that page is indexed and you allow image indexing on your blog, go to google image search and search for that image, you will find it there.

The forms of content that you can add to your blog or site are Text, Images, Videos, Audios, Pdfs, and more but these are the most popular. So a bit of advice would be to write good articles, add nice images with keywords in the name and in the tags, upload cool and relevant videos that promote your stuff, and give away helpful pdf files that you wrote.

It is important to add other forms of content because if words can say a lot, a single image can say a 1000 words, so an image can bring you visitors more then a whole article can, then imagine what a video could do, think about a youtube video that has 45,000 views, just a single video can get you in one month more visitors to your blog then you have ever had.

So start adding different kinds of content to your site and don't under estimate the power of media.

Blog Marketing Tips # 7 "Peer Relations"

The Blog Marketing Tips A Success

The blog marketing tips series is getting along quite well, my visitors feedback is proving to me that it was the right choice to talk about these techniques because a lot of people have emailed me to tell me how much they have learned from these simple tips.

Peer Relationships

Now about peer relations, if you have ever read a blog marketing or blog traffic tips newsletter or e-book then you might have read a tip about making relationships with other bloggers and webmasters, so we all go out emailing the top bloggers in our niche and the top site owners also, and we rarely ever get a reply and if we do it is just a complementary one, and most of the time it is just another employee that replies to our email so we start neglecting this great tip about peer relationships.

Your True Peers

The thing is that when I say peer relations I do not mean those top blogs and popular bloggers, actually I mean that you should contact bloggers in your niche market that are at the same level that you are playing at. In other words if you get 100 daily visitors then contact the bloggers that get a range between 70 and 150 daily visits, because they will more likely respond to you, actually they will be glad that you contacted them. Those same level bloggers form your community so go make some friends out there.

Why You Need Peer Relations

Nobody can live without friends, it's the same on the Internet because when you first start you blog you don't have any followers of fans, but if you have friends that have started a blog earlier then you then that might just be your chance to get some traffic, if they refer you to their readers in one of their blog posts, if they add a link to your blog in the sidebar, that not only will send you a spark of new readers, but also will get you indexed in google faster, and if you have enough friends that link to your blog then you will start getting a higher pagerank in google, and higher search engine ranks also, so again I will tell you get out there and make some friends, and if you would like, I'd love to be one of your friends.
