4 Ways To Gain Momentum Blogging

Think About It…

Blogging is a great way for people to reflect their ideas and pursue their interests. Basically, when people blog, it means they keep an updated online journal, diary or some other type of communication with others.  In fact, if you look over my blog, you will see that while I have a number of posts or articles, I would think you could easily term many of my posts “Lee’s journal for the day.”

In other words, we blog for a variety of reasons — including business.  After all, this is an “attraction marketing” blog with an emphasis on the foundational importance of self development as a means of:

• Expressing who we are.
• Attracting who we desire to attract.
• Giving value to those that we do attract.
• And advancing in our chosen area(s) of acquiring revenue!

The following are four ways to make your blog “magnetic” so that visitors or customers keep coming back to your blog – whether you’re an individual, or a business.

Four Ways To Gain Momentum For Your Blog

Tip Number One: Keep It Updated

One way to keep visitors coming back to your blog site is to update your blog on a regular basis. Hopefully, readers will stay loyal to blogs that are updated on a regular basis (that is, if they are updated with quality content!).

The key: you don’t want your readers to lose interest.  Here’s how I feel about it: strive to be loyal to your purpose, the people you are attempting to reach, and hopefully that will “pay off” in terms of people returning to read the content on your blog.

Oh, and by the way…

Give me your feedback if you like: either below or send me an email (writeleewise(at)gmail(dot)com and let me know the types of things you enjoy here, any positive feedback for improvement, etc.  That would be cool!

Tip Number Two: Participate In Web Communities

Participating in web communities or discussion forums and mentioning your blog in your signature and profile can help keep readers coming back to your site. In addition, you can gain new contacts, be a “value provider,” etc.

You can also be loyal to the blogs of other writers: Leave quality comments about their site frequently and you often find them visting your site in return. If you have mutual interests and the same type of readers, you can even share your blog links on your site.

Tip Number Three: Write With Intent (Target Your Interest Group)

Another great way to keep blog readers coming back for more is to understand who reads your blog — or who desire to read your blog — and write content that targeted to that group of people.

• Use the language of your group (which, in my personal estimation is “your language” — i.e. your unique style said in a way that will be complementary to those you are trying to reach).
• Appeal to their personal and professional interests.
• Definitely include the ability for them to make comments so you can learn more about your readers, thank them for reading your material, and reflect gratefulness for their contribution(s) to your discussions.

Tip Number Four: Include Related Keywords In Your Posts

Use key word in your posts.  I’ve got a ways to go here, but you this may help in terms of your “search engine discovery.” By way of example, as you read down this particular post notice the words “blog” and “blogging” sprinkled out throughout the article.

Not overkill. Just “subject key word friendly.”  Of course we all know that should you get ranked higher in the search engines, the better it is for people visting your blog.  As I mentioned, I’ve got a ways to go in this area but I think it is good to think about it at least:  I try to keep learning myself.

In Summary…

Summarizing…

• Update on a regular basis.
• Participate online in a variety of ways — with a special attention to commenting on blogs.
• Focus on your purpose and related target group.
• Including related keywords.

On Being Insanely Productive

And Smiling While You Do

Good Thoughts From Mary Jaksh

Sitting here on the back porch at home, I just completed a very enjoyable guest post entitled “How to be Insanely Productive and Still Keep Smiling” by Mary Jaksch of Goodlife ZEN.  The post is from Zenhabits.net.

Several thoughts she shared caused me to pause, but when I ran across this one I paused and reflected just a bit more:

“When our energy is aligned, we are in a state of flow.”

This was under the heading of her first of the five points which simply read: Make Peace Within.

And I internalized: ”Yes. Makes sense.”

• Inner peace.
• Inner alignment.
• Inner energy.

A super trio to shoot for!

That Leads Me To Several Simple Questions…

How’s the inner peace, alignment and energy factor in your personal or professional life today?

And how would you relate your answer to the entire concept of productivity in your world?

There’s More!

The five points named in the article are these:

1. Make peace within.
2. Go to your edge. Regularly.
3. Take action.
4. Do what  you love.
5. Love what you do.

My suggestion would be to travel over and read the remainder of the article.  And there you will find brief action “Tips” under each of the five points. I can’t imagine your not appreciating the brevity and practicality of the post!

In The Meantime…

• Consider sharing below how “making peace within” positively effects your life or business.
• Do you know of anyone that could be helped by this one point or the entire post?
• If you had to list your brief set of “steps to inner peace,” what might you name?

Reply Or Respond…

Several “brain food” questions for those on the business side of life:

• Involved in network marketing in way?  Does anyone on your team sending lack of inner peace within signals that you may be able to help?
• If you would term yourself an attraction marketer, how has “the inner rest factor” helped your business efforts?  Or, how should it?  Does your answer provide any insights as to how you could help others relate, give value or share valuable content?
• And just in case you are on the blogging for prospects side of the fence, would this be a topic of interest for you to research and post about?

May these brief words of mine prove to be a blessing for you and those you love in one way or another.

Every Day Time Management
For The Work-At-Home Entrepreneur

Time for work-at-home entrepreneurs is their single most valuable asset. Nothing can replace time…valuable, precious time!

No matter how rich or poor you are, no matter how many things are on your ‘to-do’ list, you still just get the regulation twenty-four hours each day.

Sometimes I could use another twenty-four but that isn’t going to happen. I’ll bet that you could use more hours in your work day, as well.

The thing about those twenty-four allotted hours per day is that we can’t spend all of them working.

The point: much needs to happen and that means that our time needs to be managed.

Think of what will read below as simple reminders of the obvious.  Nothing earth shattering.  Just…

“Obvious and necessary.”

And please do not allow the combination of those two words to slip by you.  Why? Because “obvious and necessary” can mean an important reminder to make an advancement we need to make!

Keep Up With That Email!

Several simple questions for you:

Do you have a way to: (1) set aside emails you need to answer soon, if not immediately? and (2) store emails that you don’t need to get back to immediately; and (3) file important ones for long term use (i.e. that may have urls to get back to, categories where you can find things at will, etc.”

Your answers to those questions will help you in the time management issues relative to your email.

Think…

And don’t forget the “get it out of the way emotional factor.”  If you can get something done in several minutes — for real several minutes (three maximum), then seriously think about doing it!

Work According To Schedule

Think of three words here:

Organize your day. Discover when you work best on certain things.  Do what you do best when it’s best for you to do it.

Easier said than done, true!  But it can pay off.

Take advantage of your personality, your motivations, what you enjoy… and what you hate.

“What you hate” you say?  That’s right, what you hate.  You know what I am going to say on that subject, correct?

Correct: tackle it.  Just do it.

One more time…

And of course all of this means working on a schedule. If you are a work at home person, you must…WORK at home.

Should You Outsource?

It may not be possible or practical at first… or it may be immensely practical for you.

Take time to investigate outsourcing. You can add hours to your day each and every day when you outsource the mundane business tasks to others.

You can outsource such tasks as bookkeeping and accounting, article/E-book writing and submission, ad writing, etc., etc.  And, with regards to the “article and ebook” category, you may even investigate the field of Private Label Rights from a trusted source.

If others can do these types of tasks better and more efficiently than you can and your time is better spent on growing your business, making those contacts and closing those deals!

Get on a business forum and ask where, when and how to best outsource.  Or contact a member of your upline that may be able to give you a resource in this area.

Evaluation Of Those “High Ticket” Items

Paying attention to “high value people” and “high value activities” can help your internal motivation tremendously.

Write down your most important people list.  Seriously, jot down the names.

Now…

Review this past week and see if they made it into the final game plan… or were they still on the bench waiting for the coach’s signal to enter the game?

If they’ve been on the bench too long, then something could be wrong.

And what about “high level activities”?  Are you really engaged in the best for the business and the best for the business of the quality of life you truly desire to lead?

Here’s a very, very simple process.  I know you know it.  It is one of those simple, obvious and quite possibly necessary strategies.

Your responses are?

Any insights of your own to share?
