Persist until you win
|
Building a successful business will require persistence and determination. Though many would like you to believe otherwise (including most of our competitors), there's simply no such thing as "get rich quick." And, I'm sorry, but almost all "overnight success" stories you hear about were actually YEARS in the making. Success comes before work ONLY in the dictionary, but stick with it and you can experience the massive success that those with unrealistic, "I-want-it-now" expectations never hang around long enough to receive. This is the core of my personal success. I hung around! I'm sure hundreds of thousands of people started a business in 1985 as I did, most perhaps with more experience, more talent, and/or more money to invest, who are no longer in business today. Why did I succeed when they did not? I believe it's because I APPLIED MYSELF to the goals I set for myself and I refused to fail. "Persist until you win" has always been my motto and it continues to serve me every single day! - Gery Carson SFI President Free Join http://skrati.net/freejoin |

So You Want to Start a (Successful) Blog…
|
So You Want to Start a (Successful) Blog… 1. Choose your niche Deciding on a topic for your blog is one of the most crucial steps when starting out (that’s why it is number one!). With so many topics to choose from, it can be cumbersome picking just one. Best practices suggest creating a content marketing mission statement to narrow your focus, reach a defined audience, and drive engagement. To help create your statement, try asking yourself these questions: * If your blog is for your small business it is important to do your research about what blogs are already out there in your industry. Is there a gap for a specific question or topic which appeals to your audience that you can fill with your blog? Are there a lot of potential post topics so you can write consistently? * If your blog is for your personal brand it is important to write on a topic that you are passionate about. What are you an expert in? Why do you want to share this knowledge with others? Knowing a lot about a subject you enjoy will help keep you motivated to follow through. 2. Choose your platform WordPress, Tumblr, Webs, and Blogger are just four of the many platforms you can pick to host your blog. The choice you make will be the right choice if it assists in meeting the goals you set in your content marketing mission statement in step one. But the key factor for your choice will be if you can register your own domain name. Ensuring your blog matches your domain name makes your content look sophisticated, smart, and SEO-friendly. These are essential in getting your blog found and shared. 3. Choose best practices For blog-writing success, there are few elements that are known to boost the value of any blog: Infographics: People remember 10% of what they hear, 20% of what they read, but 80% of what they see and do. Infographics are guaranteed to make readers remember your blog posts. Lists: Being clear and concise is great for getting through to your audience. Lists (numbered or bulleted) have the potential to be repurposed as a SlideShare, infographic, or other another type of marketing material after publish. Length: In a study asking “How long are the written article you enjoy reading?” of users across three generations, it was unanimous that keeping a post at 300 words is the sweet spot. While this post goes a bit over that limit, articles at 300 words are typically accompanied by many images or infographics to best hold a reader’s attention. 4. Choose your promotion technique There are many ways to promote your blog, but some of our favorites are listed below: Share posts on social media Include your blog URL in your email signature and your author bio if you contribute to other websites Submit your blog to search engines and directories Optimize your blog for search Comment on other blogs Check out First Site Guide for a detailed look at how to optimize your success for all of these techniques. 5. Choose to be consistent The biggest problem for new blog writers is losing the drive to constantly update their blog. You may start off strong in the beginning, but lose steam as you get caught up with your everyday deliverables. The best way to stay on the right track is to create your own editorial calendar–and stick to it! **It is also a good guide for understanding that people love variety in their content (ebooks, case studies, infographics, etc.). This way, your blog content will never go stale and your audience will always keep coming back for more! by sasa durovic |
