Tips for Launching your Business Blog

Hi

One of the best ways to make a lasting impact is to connect on a personal level with your readers. That means letting them know who you are and what your background is. Darren from ProBlogger does this well by including an image of his ugly mug and an ‘about page’ link above the fold. You don’t necessarily need an author pic to relate to your readers, but you should find some way to allow readers to connect with you on a personal as well as a professional level to develop some rapport.

Hi

1. Choose A Blogging Platform. WordPress is the most popular blogging platform, but you can also check out Joomla, Blogger, TypePad and others.

2. Plan Your Posts. Think about the direction you want your blog posts to go in. A good way to stay on track is to start with one main topic and draft a few blogs in advance. Post them on a regular schedule and you’ll have a supply of targeted blogs that add fresh content to your site and point back to your company each week.

3. Network With Influencers. Once you’ve got your blog started, it’s a good idea to look around at other bloggers in your industry. See what they’re doing, what they have to say, and leave insightful comments on their blogs. This kind of web networking will help you establish relationships with these people, which in turn will prompt them to help spread the word about your blog and your company.

4. Promote Your Blog. Offering a blog subscription through an RSS feed is an effective way to promote your blog. There are other ways to get the word out, as well. Write an optimized press release, submit articles to directories that link to your blog page, submit your blogs to social bookmarking sites

Hello

Based on my experience as a B2b marking blogger for more than 6 1/2 years, here are 9 tips for marketing and promoting a new small business blog:

Add A Link – If it’s a company blog, or if it’s attached to another site, add a link to the blog from the main navigation on the parent website. This type of link is good for SEO and website visitors are increasingly expecting the company websites they visit to also include a blog.

Email – Add a link to the blog in your email signature. Wherever you publish your web site address, you should publish your blog URL.

Newsletter – If you have a newsletter, announce the blog and introduce contributors. Ask your newsletter subscribers what they're interested in and you might even be able to attract contributors.

Network – Announce the blog to your Twitter followers, Facebook fans, LinkedIn connections and any other social networks that you are apart of. Make relevant comments on other small business or topically specific blogs using a link to your blog in the comment form vs. a link to your company web site.

Press Release – If you feel that the blog is important enough to support a press release, put one out.
