How Do You Promote Your Beloved Blogs and Your Dogs?
I am new in the blogging business, the first thing I do is to post to hosted blogs, I decided I should only work on wordpress based blogs, as we all know that WordPress is perfect for casual as well as professional bloggers, with the GPL liberal license make the WordPress the most popular weblog platform on the Internet.
Lately I figured that I should build my own blogs and promote them, afterwards I can use the already built blogs to promote whatever I want, and I think its not a patentable idea, the existence of blog networks already says it all, but those are not my own sites and I don’t have control, in addition there is no way I can post to them, its easy to understand that the price on those networks won’t be cheap.
Its a tedious job to maintain more than a few blogs, if you’re not using your blogs as spamming device, the real content writing is time and money consuming, a successful blog needs a lot of hard work. I’ve seen quite a few real world examples, let’s examine this one, Tie Down Chains and Binders, it’s name is pretty cute, and there are a lot of interesting articles on it, though its not a theme focused blog, there are all kinds of posts on the site. Here is another one, Mush Have WordPress Plugins, this blog is themed, all posts are following the same theme, quite a few keywords rank well for this site. there are more sites like these out there, but the basics are all the same. One more important point, you should build some casual blogs, put some random content on those blogs occasionally, just like this blog, Feng Shui Expert, your blogging network looks more natural with these casual blogs.
When you already have a few interesting blogs, you can try to build a few more, use the old ones to promote the new ones, this is the way to build your own blogging network. This is just an idea, to build a successful network will be much more complicated, do remember don’t do any spamming tricks for your sites, if you get dropped off there is no come back.
