Network Marketing and Other Stuff

Getting yourself out there can be a daunting task. A network marketing blog is one great way to do that. Your blog should be useful, interesting and informative and a way to let people know who are. Add a personal touch but if no one knows about your blog they'll never get to know who you are or what you stand for. There's quite a few ways to drive traffic to your blog. 

• Article Submissions
• Social Networking Sites
• Email Signature Lines
• Blog Directories
• Leveraging Other Blogs

I'm going to go over all these methods one at a time. Let's start with Article Submissions. First, what do you write about? Don't think you're a writer? Anyone can write. Remember you're not going for a Pulitzer here. Do I think I'm a writer? Not particularly. I have a few articles out but I've let myself get away from doing that, shame on me. Oh no, I'm not perfect...Kidding. In the beginning I struggled with what to write about. Here's a few tips.

• Write about what you know
• Write about what's important to you
• Look at other articles for inspiration
• Write something useful
• BE YOURSELF

There's quite a few article directories out there EzineArticles.com  and GoArticles.com  are a good place to start. Google "article directories" you'll get a lot. There's some debate on how many directories to submit to. Some people pick a few, some do 100's. I prefer to write as high a quality article as possible, that's basically something that is useful to the reader and submit it to a few high traffic directories.  Other directories and ezine authors will pick up your article if there's good content.

When you find a directory read the submission guidelines. There will be rules for formatting, using links and so on. You don't want to invest your time and not be published because you didn't follow the guidelines. The resource box is very important. This is where you'll say a little about yourself and include your blog link. Again read the guidelines for the resource box. If you do an article that ties into one of your products (not a sales pitch) you can include that link. A good splash or lead capture page would be best. Same goes if you decide to link to your network marketing opportunity.

Well that's my advice. What are you waiting for? Get writing!

By the way-don't forget the spellcheck!
