9 Tips to Ramp up The Profits from Your Blog
If you are in a home based business, direct sales or network marketing business and you don’t have a blog you are missing a critical component of your online business. There is no end to the benefits of having a blog. You can have one for free if you already have a site hosted somewhere that has C-panel, which stands for control panel. All you have to do is click on Fantastico and then Wordpress and start building.
I won’t go into setting one up because that would be a whole different article but I will say it is easier than you think and if you have one at a free blog site you should really consider getting a self hosted blog like the one you can get through Wordpress because then you can play by your own rules.
If you go to Blogger.com, or any other free blogging site, you have to play by their rules and you could put a lot of work into one and lose it because of outside influences. Your work is a lot safer when you only have to play by your own rules.
These are some good tips if you want your blog to make you money but it’s your blog so play by your own rules but just to let you know, this is some very valuable and up to date information that is cutting edge and not hard to implement right away.
1. Your blog’s header is the most valuable space on your whole site. You should use a template that lets you replace the header or use a designer for a custom header.
2. Put an opt-in form on your home page. If you don’t have a form to capture contact info on your home page you might as well delete it because you are getting SMOKED by your competition. You need an auto-responder service so you can send out messages to your list of subscribers and these services all have a way to generate an opt-in form.
3. Using other pages on your blog is nice but you should always post every article on your home page. If you hide them on other pages you are losing the value of content on your home page.
4. Every article or post whether it is text, audio or video needs to have a call to action at the bottom that explicitly tells the reader what to do, where to click and what they will get or see. Tell them exactly what to do or it won’t work.
5. Your blog needs to be personalized so it will help show the type of person you are. It also helps to have pictures and videos and posts that bring out personality.
6. You can get more leads if you have more contact information on your site and require less information on your forms.
7. Having links to affiliate programs or products is great but it would also help if you had a review of those products posted on your blog.
8. You want to make getting around your blog site so easy a caveman can do it. It needs to be simple to find the content.
9. If you have a seal from a trusted site like Better Networker you need to put it at the top of the page and boost your credibility with testimonials and videos.
Anyone using social media in their online business needs a HUB to drive traffic to that they have total control over. This is like your own house and you invite others from all your sites to visit for a feast. You want to give them great content and valuable resources to feed on so they continue to return.

How to Make Money in Your Home Based Business Using Just The Internet
There is only one thing that truly works in this industry. I will get to that later. The traditional network marketing methods that were developed before the Internet began used to be the only game in town but now with the Internet, there are many different games.
You can make money online with blogs that have Google AdSense ads or blogs that sell personal and affiliate products. You can make money with just simple affiliate sites or have a membership site. You can sell information that you or others produced and you can sell software or training courses.
But there is one thing that most of these methods have in common with the top income earners online today.That is their list. If you have looked around for ways to make money online I'm sure you have heard "the money is in the list." If you haven't, then you haven't looked around or you haven't been paying attention.
If you have a list of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of loyal followers you will be able to produce and promote or recommend products to them and earn some pretty good money. But every list has a shrinking problem and has to be constantly maintained in the form of driving new traffic to it.
A list that is constantly growing will be more responsive than one that isn't growing. Also a list of fishermen will not be a good list to promote flowers to which is one way of saying your list has to be targeted and the promotions to it have to be category specific.
The only thing that truly works in this industry is the three step process that EVERY big hitter uses. Simply put it goes like this:
1. Build a list of targeted prospects.
2. Build a relationship with those on the list. (The Most Important Step)
3. Monetize the list.
You have to learn TWO things to do this. Well three really but the first one is really just a decision. You have to decide to become a leader because people join leaders NOT followers.
You also have to learn how to drive traffic but you really only need to learn one method. If you learn one method you can get plenty of traffic from that. The other thing you need to learn is to become at least serviceable with copywriting skills because it comes into platy with everything you do from writing ads to emails to letters to simple messages.
So there you have it. Simple but complete business model that you can use to build a business that no one can take away from you. Since there are hundreds of thousands of struggling network marketers out there you have a large pool of prospects and if you learn how to position yourself where their searches will turn you up you will have a skill that you can teach.
That is the key to leadership. If you learn something well enough to teach it you are a leader and that will attract others to you because they will want to learn. So become a leader and build a list and promote products and a network marketing business to those on the list and you will be on your way to a 6 or 7 or even 8 figure paycheck.
