How To Promote Your Blog With Great Content

By David McCammon

Your Own Web Real Estate

As soon as you have several articles, whether you write them yourself or have them written by a professional, you are ready to use them online to get seen by visitors. The first place to do this is on your own website.

There are different ways to use articles to get visitors coming and returning to your website. In this article I'll talk about the benefits of using your own articles on your own website. I'll tell you what they will do for your website and how they effect your traffic.

Content Is King

As the saying goes "content is king" in the internet marketing world. By providing several articles that are free for your visitors to read and view, improve your website rank, earn more return visitors, and convert more visitors to paying customers you can make more money.

Content versus pages: Guess which one is more important?

Articles of good quality are what provides the incentive for visitors to return to your website. You could have thousands of pages but without good content it will not matter how many pages you have.

You have probably heard about the importance of confusing things like metatags and metadescriptions. These are part of your website's coding; this is text that doesn't appear on your screen when your site is being viewed. However, these tags don't matter as much now as they used to.

Search engines crawl the web indexing every page they find, don't pay much attention to metatags. Importance is given to the website's content than everything else. Your hard work or your investment in written articles pays off. The more quality content you have catalogued on your website, the more money you will make.

Your website won't make it to Google's top ten the minute you put up your fresh new articles. Search engines take time to update the vast amount of information available on the web. But, the quicker you begin, the quicker you will see results on search engines for your website. Once the information is catalogued, you can remain high in the results.

When content is not enough: building trust with your customers. Many webmasters put up a lot of content to their websites, and then sit back and wonder why the business isn't pouring in. The reason, is trust.

You will need to build trust in order to be a successful Internet marketer. Providing free, high quality information for visitors is a start, but it is not enough. Many consumers must be exposed to your business three to seven times before they'll consider making a purchase.
