How to get your blog noticed
Published in Marketing
Last week I wrote a blog about blogging; I know that sounds slightly ironic. After speaking with a few people who read the blog , the one question I kept receiving was, "How do I use this blog to help me generate leads?" After you have spent your valuable time working on a blog, that you feel will be helpful to your audience, you need post that article in a place that will get read by your intended audience.
If you read last week's blog, you know that your blogs should be more informational and not a sales pitch. Go with the 80/20 rule on informational vs. sales blog. Add some personality, keep the word count at a reasonable level, make the blog readable and blog consistently. You can find more about blogging here.
For this article, I'm going to assume you load your blog to your website. It's not only a great component of your SEO (search engine optimization) strategy, it's the place you want to drive traffic (assuming you have a good website). It's the website that will do your sales pitch, not the blog.
The blog is written and posted, now let's get the word out...
