This is a question that often asked by most newbie bloggers. Frankly, I don’t have the answer for this question. I don’t know how much time you are willing to spend in your blog everyday. For some people, they spend only about one hour into their blog everyday. They publish a post once every two or three days, and their blog is still great! They have many loyal readers. While for some blogger, they publish post every single day, however, their blog is not as popular as the first case. This is why how many post should you publish in your blog does not really matter.

Posting Frequency
It is the posting frequency that matters. For example, if you choose to post everyday, then stick with the plan, and post an article in your blog everyday. Here is the tips, use the timestamp option to make your post publish at the same time everyday. Posting frequency will attract the search engine spider to crawl over your blog. If your posting frequency is not fixed, the frequency for search engine spider to crawl through your blog will not be fixed as well. Meaning that every time you post something new, the search engine won’t know and it will not crawl through your blog.

That is why posting frequency is more important than numbers of posting. If you are publishing a new post every 35 days, then stick with it. Even if you want to change it, change it slowly. Such as, you can slowly publish a post every 4 days, then every 3 days, then 2 and everyday… You have to do the same if you want to reduce the number of posting in your blog. So don’t post 5 articles in the same time, then leave your blog without doing anything for the whole week. If you do so, it is going to kill your blog.

What to Post?
Some people may say, if I want to post everyday, there is no content for me to write. Is this true? Do you really think that you will run out of content for your niche? Really, I don’t think so. You can basically talk about anything that is related to your niche market. If you can’t find anything to write, you can even write your own story or experience with your niche. If you are running out of content and don’t know what to post, you are facing the problem that some people call it, the writers’ block. It means that you are blocking your own thinking, your mind is not open enough. It is the same case for mental block. In fact, it is not ‘out-of-content’ that you are facing, instead, it is your mind that shut all the possible way in your mind to look for content.

When this happens to you, do not worry. Simply rest for away, listen to some music or songs that relax your mind, or you can also talk a walk. This is to refresh your mind so that you can think out of the box. The one thing that I found through my own blogging experience is this, blogging is all about events and experience.

Every time you want to post something and let your readers know, it is because of the events surrounding you or because of your own experience. For example, if you want to post about another similar blog which is performing great in your niche, it is because you have gone through it, and you feel like it is a great blog to share with your readers. This is your own experience which you came across when you surf the net. The same thing goes for affiliate programs. If you are posting about how an affiliate program can help your readers and why they need that product, it is because you want to earn money out of it, it is because of the happening. So can you see the big picture now? It is because of what is happening in our surrouning and the experience that we faced that lead us to post. Therefore, one of the best way you can overcome mental block is this:

Jotting Down Every Ideas That Come Across You
Whenever you come across an idea, quickly jot it down into your notepad, or you can even write them with your hand phone. This is to make sure that you are not going to forget the precious idea which you are going to share with your readers. Now, doing this requires commitment as well. If you don’t have the commitment, you are going to give up doing this. Well, maybe you are going to do this only for the first few days, but after some time, you are going to stop it, and the mental block will happen to you again.

What I do is this, you know, I’ve subscribed to a lot of newsletters or list just to receive e-books, or reports that other internet gurus offer. And I do have a lot of pdf files in my computer. Every time I read them, and if there is any idea that come across my mind, I will write them down into my hand phone, and when it is the time for me to post, I will refer back the ideas and write it to you. Did you know that this article was produced in the same way?

So is blogging difficult? Not really, once you know how it works, it will be easy for you. Here, I’ve listed some of the blogging steps that you must take to build a successful blog. I hope that you can benefit from this article.

1. Identify your interest and narrow down your niche. You have to do this, you have to blog about something that you love, or else, you are going to lose the interest and you will give up faster than you can imagine. Narrow down your niche, the competitions are great out there, always go for more targeted market, so that you can fully conquer your market.

2. Set up your blog with your own domain name and hosting. I myself made this mistake, I did not purchase for my own domain and hosting, and I blog for almost half years. After I’ve learned the lesson, I bought this domain, www.themillionairesecrets.net and I’m using my own paid hosting to host this blog. Remember, without your own domain and hosting, you are building business for others, people can shut down your business anytime.

3. Keep on providing great information for your readers. Now, once you’ve identified where your interest and you’ve set up your own blog, you need to post for at least 15 to 20 articles before you can finally see any results from your blog. Don’t forget this, ‘Content is King’, it is the only reason that people visit your blog, so keep on posting something useful, something that your visitors are looking for, and you will earn the credibility.

4. Run marketing campaign for your blog. This is the same as driving traffic to your blog. No matter what business you are in, you are in marketing business. The same goes for internet business, you have to do the marketing to generate traffic to your blog. Without traffic, nobody will visit your blog, because you did not tell them about your blog’s existent. That is why most bloggers give up, they got no traffic to their blog. So don’t make this mistake, learn how to generate traffic to your blog such as using forum marketing, article marketing, etc.

5. Search engine optimization, SEO. You also need to do SEO for your blog. Many people don’t know what is SEO and most of them think that SEO is something difficult. I’m here to say, it is easy, just that it is going to take times for your blog to come up in the top spot in search engine. That is why you have to learn and apply SEO in your blog from the start. Blogging is not a short-term business, you are going to blog for at least 3 years, so try to learn and do SEO for your blog.

6. The last thing to do is to monetize your blog. Remember your goals? To earn money online, to be an internet millionaire. So it will be fine to monetize from your blog. However, you must make sure that monetization from your blog is the last step to take, because you have to develop your blog first, then only earn money from it. If you focus in earning money from your blog, your readers will know, they can smell it. That is why you have to build up your blog first, create relation and credibility, once you’ve did so, you can then enjoy your hard work. This is the rule of the game.

Just follow the steps given above, and focus in creating value in your blog for your readers. The more value you create, the more money you can make from your blog. Blogging is an on-going process, you must always be ready to learn something new every single day. Remember this, if you want to earn money online from your blog, then you have to keep on learning, and then apply what you’ve learned. Learning without actions are not going to create any results, you know this very well.

I will keep on providing great information which you are looking for.

You know, to create a blog is easy, but to maintain and build a blog, it will be challenging. This is because many people lack the commitment to keep their blog going on. Most people will give up with their blogging journey when they cannot make any money from their blog in the first few months. I don’t want this to happen to you. You are special, because you are reading this, and I want to be different from others. If you want to build a successful blog today, then you cannot run away from marketing and making your blog visible on the net.

Why Visibility and Marketing?

Visibility and marketing are both important factors that will determine how much money you are going to make from your blog. If you have a visible blog, people tend to know more about you, and this is where you build your credibility and branding. As for marketing, you have to market your blog in order to drive traffic to your blog. Generally, the more traffic you generate to your blog, the more likely you can make money from your blog. I used the words ‘generally’ and ‘likely’ because it is not always the case. It doesn’t always mean that if you have a high traffic, you will definitely higher earnings. It is not necessarily this way. The quality of traffic which you generated to your blog counts.

Not all traffic are created equally. You should know that if you drive targeted traffic to your blog, you are going to earn more money. And the opposite case will occur if you drive less targeted traffic to your blog. That is why the you have to do your marketing correctly, it is going to make your blog more visible in the internet world. Below are 2 ways that can help you boost your blog’s visibility and marketing effort.

1. Good SEO Practices
You have to do this from time to time, SEO. It is one of the most seek strategy that helps you drive organic traffic to your blog by ranking your blog in a higher search results. However, many people are competing to get a high position in search engine. Here is my advice, just do SEO from time to time, it is a MUST do marketing work, and you are not going to see the results in the first few months. It is a long-term effort which you must be committed in doing. Many people give up because they cannot receive immediate results from SEO.

Here are some ways you can increase your SEO effort for your blog. Always ask for link exchange, either through text-link exchange or review exchange, both of them work great. Besides that, take the time to learn about using trackbacks, pingbacks, good linking practices and basic SEO techniques. You can read more about SEO here, How to Optimize Your Keywords and Getting Started With Link Strategy.

2. Track Your Results
Keep track of your sales, inbound links, citations by using tools like adtrackers, Blogpulse and Marketleap. Also offer your readers incentives to participate in surveys. This information is very valuable because it will help you understand what your market needs and how to give it to them. It will also help you understand how much your blogging is helping your marketing efforts so you can tweak your methods and get more out of them.

Tracking of where your links come from, where is the main source of your traffic, sales, etc are very important. This is because if you know where exactly they come from, you can then take further steps and improve them. For example, if most of your traffic is coming from article marketing than forum marketing, then you can consider to abandon forum marketing, instead, focus in article marketing. This way, you are going to put more time into article marketing, which is going to drive you even more traffic than before.

I believe that you can see the big picture now. Blogging is not just about posting, there are a lot of works you have to put your effort and time in. This is how your blog can grow, and transform into a successful blog just like many others out there. So are you committed to do all these? If it doesn’t make you any money, are you willing to keep going on and keep on providing what people are looking for? Will you still continue putting your effort in building your blog? If your answer is a YES, then congratulations, you are already 70% ahead of others.

I believe that I have already posted a lot of articles regarding blogging tips, how you can improve your blogs, earn money from your blogs and many more. If you are looking for all these information, then you have come to the right place. Often visit The Millionaire Secrets, I believe that you will find all the content and information here are very useful in your life especially if you are looking for success, blogging tips, earn money online and motivations.

As for today, I’m going to tell you the 3 reasons that why people visit your blog. You know, if you want to set up a successful blog, then you have to drive traffic to your blog, without traffic and visitors, your blog will be a ghost town. Did you actually think about this question, “Why there people are visiting my blog?”. Have you ever think of it before? Did you actually know that by knowing the reasons that people visit your blog, you can increase your traffic? For me, there are only 3 reasons that attract people to visit your blog. And they are:

1. Your Content
This is the most important factor of all. Content is going to determine your blog’s value. The more valuable content you have in your blog, the better readership you are going to gain. The number reason people online and surf the net is because they are looking for information. No matter what information it is, it must be something they have interested or they need. This is where the content in your blog comes in. You have to provide good content for people. Take the example of yourself, are you going to visit a website which is full of ads, but don’t have any content in it? I bet you know you won’t right? The same concept applies for everyone.

Therefore, focus in building quality content which your visitors want to. Great content always attract readership. The first time someone visits your blog, and if that person find your article interesting, he or she will come back for more. In the opposite, if your did not provide what people are looking for, they will leave and never come back again. Blog is a website which you can update every moment, so you must make use of this feature and keep on providing great information.

2. Entertainment
Yes, people are looking for entertainment from your blog. This is the main reason why an entertainment blog which talks about movie reviews or comics are more popular than a blog which talks about investing in the stock market. People are looking for happiness every moment in their life. People likes something that is funny and something that can make them feel joyful. No wonder the entertainment industry is a very, very profitable huge market.

3. People Want to Know You Better
This is another reason people visit your blog. If you are John Chow or Yaro Starak, I’m sure that a lot of people will visit your blog because people want to know more about you. One of the reasons that blog was created is because of this, to expose yourself to the world. Did you still remember what blog was named before it gets popular? “Online-journal”, the name already proves that a blog is an online diary, which is used to expose yourself and your story to the online world.

These are the 3 reasons that people visit your blog. Always remember this, you have to make your blog as a source of information in your industry or market. Your readers will start looking to you as a resource of news and opinions about the industry you represent and that builds your brand equity. When we talk about driving traffic to your blog, we cannot run away from this word, ‘marketing’. Everything is about marketing if you want to earn money online, even if it is through your blog.

This is what most people will do, especially for new bloggers. They thought that their blog is a sales letter, and they post a lot about affiliate products and asking people to buy from them. No, this is not the right way of earning money from your blog. I know that you want to earn money online with your blog, but the right way is, if you are a new blogger, then don’t sell! This is the right way. I said so because if you keep doing all these selling instead of building up your blog, do you really think that your visitors will buy from you? Absolutely no, people don’t like sales pitch. I’ve also seen some blog that keep on promoting their affiliate products, but end up getting no sales. I’ve also seen some bloggers who truly wanted to help their readers, they recommend great affiliate products that would solve the readers’ problems, and guess what, they made a lot of sales.

Focus In Building Up Your Blog
This is exactly what you should do before you start profiting from your blog. What I mean by building up your blog is this, you have to write pillar articles that people are looking for. Pillar articles are great informative content which visitors like to read, they are going to help you build up the foundation of your blog. This is also the number one reason that visitors visit your blog, they are looking for the information that your blog is providing. Just imagine that people visit your blog, but you just have one interesting article about your market, do you expect your visitors to come back and read for more? Therefore, increase your blog’s stickiness by writing more pillar articles, provide what people are looking for.

Pre-sell Instead of Selling
I told you that if you are new in blogs, then you should not sell. This is what you should do, pre-selling instead of direct selling. If you are selling in a direct way to the visitors who come to your blog, you are turning your blog into a sale pitch. Since you want to earn money online with your blog, you can just pre-sell your visitors. Recommend them with great affiliate products which will truly help them in solving their problems. You have to do it in a different way, just like after you watch a movie, you will recommend it to your friends. This is the real arts of selling. Often, pre-selling will perform much better than simply selling directly.

Focus In Sharing
You should know that blogs can be a very powerful tool in marketing, however, it is only if you use it correctly. As an internet marketer, you should concentrate in sharing more than selling. Share what your knowledge and experience are great ways to create more value for your readers. Don’t be afraid even if you have to share your ‘secrets’ to earn money online. This is because of all 100 people who read your so-called ‘secrets’, maybe only 5 of them will take actions and do as you told. Hence, don’t worry about competition, just create more value for your readers. Give and you shall receive.
