Money Blogger

Do you have something very very very important to say? Do you think that the article you are going to write will or could have a strong impact to others? Well, if this is the case you’re very lucky: it happens once in a million. How could you make sure that the article or revelation you’re going to make will have a lasting impact on your blog, on your business, on you?

Here comes in handy preparation and self-promotion. First, take a breath. Then, if you’re ready, write the article in the most perfect manner you could ever imagine. But that is just the beginning. Before publishing it you’ve got to make sure that people will talk of you!

To do this, scan the Internet and look for sites and blogs pertaining the article you’re writing, or that may be interested in publishing a reminder to it. Once you’ve collected them, try sending them the link as soon as you publish the article: if you can, write directly to this sites by sending the article. Or is the article more than sensational? In that case you might also be interested in sending it to newspapers and media agencies, provided that that articles is really, really, really impressive.

Do you want an example? Ok. Several weeks ago Darren Rowse talked about his earnings: in one month he did more than $10,000 with Google Adsense. By that, he was on the mouth of everybody in a very few hours and he was even Slashdotted that day.

This gave him an incredible boost of visitors and subscribers, and I’m pretty sure that this had a lasting effect on his online activities.

He probably didn’t look for such popularity when writing that post: however, if you do, you may achieve sudden popularity if you’re talking on something very significant or very impressive.

The work of every blogger is searching information. Google News helps, however.
I’ve made several searches on Google News related to the topics I deal with in my site and I have subscribed those searches with the Google Alerts.

By this, I get all the useful information in my inbox, and making posts with latest news has became easier than ever before.

The blogosphere is really a world apart. Once upon a time, when I had a commercial site, I avoided putting competitor’s links on my site: I didn’t want people go to them. That’s obvious!

But today it’s different: not only because I deal with a niche - i.e., blog owners wanting to promote themselves and earning money - but also because certain rules in the blogosphere are not valid anymore.
I do not see anymore putting a link in a post, or on my blogroll, a possible way of users to go away; and this is because blogs are just reminders, quick notes to other articles, sites, newspapers, blogs.
If you avoid to put a link, you’re getting trouble: first, because the information you’re dealing with typically is not yours. Secondly, because visitors expect links in a blog: if you don’t, people will be tired of reading your voice only and won’t believe your truth.

Are you going to lose visitors if you put links to other sites and blogs on your site? No. If you give people information, people will recall that in the future, and will seek information again on your site.

Blogs are the most democratic expression on the Internet.
