Email #14: Leverage On The Social Factor (Part 2)

Dear <firstname> ,

Today we continue on blog awareness with:

-Link Out To Other Blogs:

It will do your blog good to link out to 
other blogs.  Here's a fact: linking to relevant 
blogs will help you in the search engine rankings.

Linking to other blogs also gets their attention, 
especially if you send them some traffic. The 
blogger will notice too, and bloggers are always 
curious what people are saying about them.  They
 appreciate the link too.  So they will be likely to 
link to one of your posts when the opportunity 
comes up. They might even add you to their blogroll.

- Advertise on Social Networking Sites/MSN:

We’re sure you have heard of popular social 
networking sites like Facebook and myspace.

Basically such sites allow you to share your photos
and keep yourself updated with your friends’ life. 
These sites get really HUGE traffic and exposure, 
so you can be sure to get lots of traffic when you 
display your blog links on them. You could include a 
link inside your profile.

Also, if you use instant messengers such as MSN 
Messenger, you can always display your blog link 
so your friends can see it.

-Forums:

What you need to do is find a forum related to your topic.

Put the URL of your blog in your forum signature.  
Spend some time hanging out in the forum, and post some
helpful information when people ask for help.

People will see your URL in your signature file, and 
will click it to see what your site is like, especially if 
they like what you are saying on the forum.

To your blogging profits,

Your Name
