Michaela Cernescu’s Blog

We already establish that content is the king, and we have to keep the Blogs up-to-date, write frequently, and this is a way of getting constant traffic to our Blogs.

Blogging has truly revolutionized the way we communicate, it seems no limit to what we can do with the help of blogs.

We can communicate:

• The smallest aspect of your daily personal life like recording journal entries
• Talk about our dreams, projects
• Communicate with competition
• Engage in discussion, debates: customers, sellers, curious people, gurus, and novice; all of them can use the blogging platform to the same extend
• Branding our business
• Erase any differences and obstacle between people – this is huge and very appealing aspect of blogging
• The sky is the limit

More tips for blogging:

1. It is recommended to start some of discussions yourself, this is how you will find what the competition is thinking, doing, and make the buzz go around about what you are doing it
2. Do a lot of surveys to find out the interests of your readers, it is priceless
3. In this blog, the posts with a lot of comments were the ones I created as a response of a reader request/question, so…
4. You always respond to your readers
5. Don’t be shy, you can earn some money while blogging, it is nothing wrong about this, it is an interesting and attractive aspect of this platform. If you blog well enough for people to come and read it, you earn good chances of making quick money, by just going about your daily activity of posting blogs. Do you know other platform which will offer you an equal chance? I don’t!

What to do to make sure that your blogging activities get rewarded by more than just comments, compliments, and backlinks?

You could get yourself registered with a search engines. But keep in mind that you must do it only if you are confident enough that your blog gets good traffic. That way, the higher the ranking your blog achieves, the more you get paid.

While writing your blogs you also need to keep in mind your blog readership can increase so that the ranking of your blog with search engines go higher.

Here are a few tips that should get you through this:

• Keywords: Using the keywords of your posts frequently increases the search ability of that particular article of yours which in turn leads more people to visit your blog
• Post Title: A catchy post title or headline is recommended. It can glue a reader to your post almost immediately. However, avoid misleading post titles, or you will lose creditability
• Reader Friendly Content: This is the basic rule in marketing. At all costs keep your content reader friendly that should keep more and more readers interested. Your reader must feel that he is gaining something out of reading your post
• Worthwhile: Never let the reader feel that he has been tricked into reading your articles or clicking on your blog link. You are blow away all your long term chances of that reader coming back to your blog, in which case your blog rankings will suffer
• No errors: If you can, proof read your blog. A small typo here and there can be understood, but make sure you don’t make any major errors
• KISS = Keep It Short and Simple. This is an essential rule. Your blog will be much more appreciated if you put your thoughts simply and shortly. Make sure you put your thought clearly before the readers so that it does not become tedious for them to read
• Interesting: This is a subject mater, but make sure that you hold your reader’s attention by making your posts to point immediately in the course of your article. Your articles must not be written in a tone that is tiring to read. Write using short sentences and keep them crisp and precise
• Colloquialism: it is great to write in a friendly tone, but avoid using too many slang words

So, be consistent with your blog content and watch traffic growing to your blog!

You already know that I am a big fun of WordPress and I am convinced that its success   has a lot to do with being open source software. This is the reason I review plug-ins which I like and make my life easier.

Yesterday I had the pleasure to download

Maxblogpress Ninja Affiliate plug-in

and I discover how easy it is to turn keyword into affiliate links that make money.

The best feature I like which is the core basis of this wordpress plug-in is actually the option to automatically convert your blog keywords into links to the affiliate product of your choice; the best part is that even your old keywords can turn into money-making affiliate links.

Why would you want to convert old keywords into affiliate links?

Let’s say you’ve found a brand new affiliate program and you can’t wait to promote it to your blog. You don’t have to wait until you write your next post, just use Ninja Affiliate plug-in and it’ll convert the keywords of your choice into affiliate links on auto-pilot. You work just once, and all the keywords you input will be turned into links that make money, without you having to edit any post whatsoever.

And it is more, it is saving you a lot of time, and effort.

This helps you as instead of editing links and posts, you actually have a lot more time to write content and promote your blog – what will drive visitors to your blog links.

What I like about this little plug-in is that it’s updated from time to time, and new features and add-ons are loaded frequently.

What I don’t like about Maxblogpress Ninja Affiliate? Glad you asked! Well, there’s a learning curve to mastering the plug-in and getting used to it. It’d probably take you a few hours to learn all its options and experience the full potential, but it is well worth it.

Don’t tell me about a plug-in with no learning curve; all great plug-ins take time to learn, and Maxblogpress Ninja Affiliate is no exception, and by the way it is top rated.

It’s in your best interest to buy it today if you want to SAVE a ton of time, effort and energy on editing links and actually dedicating yourself on what makes you real money – writing posts and driving traffic to your blog.

• Help With FREE Marketing Tools Part I (11)

I kept last post to be about the fold longer then usual, I did it on purpose.  Now is the right time to go forward.

Everybody under the sun is complaining about information overload and the luck of enough time. We cannot make the day longer then 24 hours even if we try, this is a fact, but we can help ourselves with some Marketing Tools which can be Free or Paid.

I’ll tell you today about FREE Marketing tools I use and like to make my life easier, to minimize the time, and make me happy as an Internet Marketer.

I need more then one post but this is the plan:

• Google Free Tools
• Graphics
• Blogging
• SEO
• Others

Google Free Tools

They are so many; I enumerate 6 of them in alphabetical order:

1. Google Alerts  it is a tool which can help you to get more traffic, and more knowledge about a subject

Google Alert

I am interested on Affiliate Marketing, I create a Google Alert for it and all the time when it is a new blog post, forum discussion, website and so on I receive an email about it, this cover the knowledge part.

All other people who have a Google Alert about the topic of this post receive an email about this post.  It is a very easy way to keep abreast with new publications, and make your activity visible in the same time

2. Google Analytics is a free tool which you must download.

It gives you rich insights into website traffic and marketing affectiveness. It is a great traking and stat tool which is not used yet at the real potention.

3. Google Docs It’s basically a place to store your documents online, with the added benefit that you and others can edit files at the same time.

You can watch this video.

The beauty is, you don’t end up with lots of different versions of the same file flying around, and you don’t have to download your file each time you want to open it. It really is a brilliant free software to use.

4. Google Keywords It ia a tool you can download.

It is a tool that helps you with your keyword research, very fast, and it has loads of features. I advise to use it in combination with other tools as well. My favorite is SpyFu , this tool is teling me what the competition is doing, and I love their motto:

“It’s tough out there. Succeed beyond survival”

5. Google Reader 

You must use RSS to keep up to date with the best content on the web. Almost all blogs publish an RSS feed, and that means that if you use an RSS feed reader, you can have the content of that site delivered to you as soon as it happens.

When you start subscribing to your preferred RSS feeds, you’ll discover that you save a  loads  of time which you can now use for other purposes to grow your business.

There are lots of different RSS readers out there, but my personal favourite by far is Google Reader, click to get a tour first. It’s completely free, very easy to use, and it will save you ton of time.

6. Google Trends  It  is an excellent tool that allows you to see graphs of search volume over a period of time.  The following graph is for Squidoo:

For the next graph I narrow the scope, and I choose just USA, you will be surprised to find out which States and  Cities are using the most Squidoo:

This is a great niche research tool, and you can use to get a feel for whether some search terms on a particular topic are likely to go up or down.

Others:

Roboform If you want a  big time saver download now the Roboform.

I am sure you have over 100 of usernames and passwords for loads of different sites. Just to remember so many passwords it is mission impossible

Roboform does the work for you, as it saves all of your different login details inside a toolbar that sits at the top of your browser. To visit any site you just select it from the drop down menu and then Roboform takes you to the relevant page and logs you in.

I successfully use this simple site, for over 2 years, but last week I give up as the new Norton Internet Security 2010 has a nice feature called: Log-ins and Cards which makes the Roboform features even easier to use.  Norton is a paid product but I have it anyway for security reasons, and I decided to you his new 2010 function to replace Roboform.

I’ll continue in differnt posts.

Until the next time all the best

Michaela
