If someone were to ask you what the "granddaddy" of this whole Web 2.0 marketing phenominon were, what would you say?Blogging
Blogging is a great way to:- Review products
- Showcase testimonials
- Give potential customers or prospects a look into the person or people who make up your company
- Publish news bullitens about new products that are just coming to the market
- Publish relevant articles pertaining to your product's niche
Blogger Tip:Even
as an Internet marketer, you still want to provide links to other blogs
and sites within your niche, even if they promote a product that you
think of as competing. This shows that you have enough confidence in
your product that you feel comfortable leading them right to the
competition. I'm not talking about pointing them to the sales letters,
I'm talking about pointing them to great information on the subject
they might have been researching if they came to your site.
This is where a "blogroll" comes in handy. For example, if you're selling Internet marketing type products, you'll want to give them resources for things like:

Another great thing about blogs is that you can also embed videos in your blog posts from sites like YouTube for example. One cool thing you could do on a vlog post is have individual product reviews and show the product in action.
Can you do this with e books?
Sure, just pop over to the video marketing page and see how you can create videos for any kind of product you're promoting.. You'll even find out how to create videos that take the person straight to the order page if you want to.
What Is A Blog (And What Is A VLOG?)
and how can I use them to help my online business?
A blog is a website (yes, it's considered a website) in which entries are posted like a journal with the latest entry being at the top.A Vlog or a Video Blog is simply a blog with videos.
Blogs are not stuffy corporate style places. They are to be written in such a way as to feel like a one-on-one conversation between you and your readers.
What Can My Blog Be About?
Well, really it can be about anything you like, but as an Internet marketer, you want it to be useful to the people it's targeted to. Otherwise, they just won't find the time to read it. Here are some ideas to get you started:
- Product reviews
- Affiliate marketers can write based on experience
- How to create an affiliate website
- How to get traffic to your website (how you actually did it, not theories you read somewhere)
- How to choose the right niche
- Copywriting techniques
- Network marketing professionals can also blog about their experiences and what is working for them.
- Leads Generation techniques
- Closing
- Attraction marketing methods that have worked for you
- Leadership development
Another great feature of a blog is that it allows your readers to add comments to your blog posts. This gives it that true Web 2.0 experience. If you're afraid to allow comments, then you probably shouldn't be blogging until you're confident enough to allow critics.
Remember, along with the critics of your work comes the people who will praise what you're doing.
My theory, just get out there and start blogging. The more you do it, the better you'll get. Also, read plenty of other blogs in your niche and outside of your niche as well to get inspiration and a feel for what kind of styles people use when blogging.
Who knows, you may find your future business partner out there in the blogosphere, I did!
Oh, I almost forgot.
Blogs have another great feature that static websites just can't hold a candle to. The reason why Google and the other search engines love blogs so much is because of the fresh content constantly updating.
Because of the constant flow of fresh content, blogs have a feature in which you can subscrbe through an RSS feed. This allows the blog reader to be updated whenever the blogger posts new content. It's similar to permission based email marketing only way better and FREE!
