Blogs Do Achieve High Rankings
Our leader Jennifer is just swamped with work and so, to help her out, I thought I add some information based on my own experience in the world of Blogs.
Why do we say to clients that you need a Blog….because a well done blog can achieve top rankings very quickly and in turn, can bring people to your website or product line.
Example:
I wanted to make some extra money for Hannakah, so, in August of this year, I began a new Blog using Google’s Blogger as it was free. I titled the Blog with keyword phraes based on the affiliates of Santa Letters. I added new content daily or every other day using the internet as a resource for information, news and so on. I then added the affiliate codes to the site for those who came to read my postings in hopes that sending a Santa Letter would be a cool idea.
So now comes the holiday season and suddenly I am found at the top of the engines. The phrase: write a letter to santa claus, on Yahoo had me on page 1 out of 15 million possible  listings. The phrase: santa’s reindeer facts, placed me on page 1 of Google. The blog is being found in hundreds of keyword combination and since Novemeber when the ‘season’ began up to todays date, the blog has had a total of 1500 visitors from organic searches only.
The cool part is, I can add a new posting in the morning and have it found in organic searches by afternoon.
So what is the secret to blogging….actually it is simple. Make time every evening to add a few new posts. Be sure to title the posts with relevent keyword phrases. Be sure to include links to your website or specific product page. Think outside the box. Example: I included items like Christmas humor, recipes, history of santa, christmas songs and such as a way to get people to the blog and then providing links to santa letters. The point is they may have just been looking for words to a christmas song, found that info on the blog and then the Santa letters link became of interest and ‘click’ I made a sale.
So blogs are important. They are search engine friendly. Can help promote your product line, are great for Social Networking and can help you with your bottom line.
That’s all I have to say about that. It is the second night of Hannakah and I have yet to receive the only gift I have asked for over the last 25 years…a Rolex watch. I am hoping this is the year…but I doubt it
