Content Marketing Is Essential To Your Blog Success

September 27, 2015 by Editorial Staff

In layman’s terms, content marketing can be described as the new kid on the block who’s been stealing all the attention as of late. Content marketing is a part of inbound marketing and is very different from traditional outbound marketing methods. As a matter of fact, content marketing can be considered a rival of conventional outbound marketing.

The growth of content marketing is picking up more momentum with each new day, and it seems quite unlikely to stop anytime soon.

Defining Content Marketing

If you are looking for a definition for content marketing, then focus on the word “content”. As the name suggests, content marketing is based on the idea of providing free media type content in an attempt to garner the attention of the audience.

The content is also provided with the intention of bringing in more legitimacy to the brand name and solidifying the reputation of the enterprise.

Top 3 Do’s and Don’ts of Blogger Outreach

September 20, 2015 by Editorial Staff

A lot of people often ask me about the connection between digital marketing and blogs. According to my research and experiences, I can tell you for sure that blogger outreach is one of the most essential components of digital marketing. It gives you can incredible opportunity to connect with your audience and help them relate to your train of thoughts. Once the people start seeing things from your perspective, they become more inclined to buy your products or subscribe to your service. If I write good blogs, people will have a genuine interest in my opinions and sales pitches.

High quality content in blogs can easily inspire consumer confidence. The key word that you need to focus on here is high quality. I cannot insert random information in a blog post and expect my target audience to read it, let alone enjoy it. I need to make sure that everything I post, offers a certain degree of value that the readers seek. In my humble opinion, the purpose of blog posts is to educate and entertain the people. This is why bloggers are quite different from ordinary journalists and writers. Their task is to keep people engaged, amused and informed all at the same time.

Blogger outreach is quite a broad topic that consists of a few basic elements. Each element has its own pair of do’s and don’ts. Today, I am going to discuss these elements and their do’s and don’ts with you. My goal here is simple; it is to help you achieve better blogger outreach at the cost of minimal effort and expenses.

1) Contacting Bloggers

Contacting bloggers is one of the biggest challenges you will face with your blogger outreach campaign. Throughout my career, I have been very careful when it comes to creating first impressions with bloggers. If they like you from the onset, you’ll build a healthy relationship that you can count on for years to come. If they do not fancy you, you may end up incurring their wrath.

Do’s

Your first priority is to study the bloggers, assess their work and find out as much as you can about their personalities. Once you believe that the blogger would be a great addition to your campaign, send in an email describing the details. I like to keep my words ultra sweet in the mail. Be sure to talk about their blog, otherwise you might come off as a phony.

Don’t

If you send out poorly written emails to numerous bloggers that you do not even know, you are asking for a lot of trouble and failure. My motto is simple. Never contact a blogger that I have not read the work of. If I don’t know who they are and how good they are, I have no business mailing them. I’ll be a little devil here and plant the seeds of fear in your heart. The internet is full of bloggers who do not need a second invitation to rant about you. Their rants can translate into really bad publicity for you and your campaign.

2) Retaining Connections

I know that “staying connected” is a very clichéd phrase that has been overused for far too long. However, when it comes to a successful blogger outreach campaign, your safest best is to maintain strong connections with the bloggers that you have on board. This is because bloggers are people who provide a unique service, and therefore require special care and attention.

Do’s

If you have some free time on your schedule, make it a priority to get in touch with one of your bloggers. Make sure that this becomes a habit, a part of a regular routine. Bloggers do not appreciate being contacted once in a blue moon. Whenever I talk with bloggers, I make sure that I engage in a friendly chat with them. That being said, you should try to make the conversations as productive as you can. Bloggers are very busy individuals and they certainly have no time for useless discussions. Another thing that I personally focus on is being grateful. You do not necessarily have to be pretentious with your words, but a simple thank you every once in a while during a conversation will be much appreciated.

Don’ts

Do you have a tendency to contact bloggers only when you want them to write a post? Then it’s about time you change your ways. I have done that a few times out of ignorance, and the results were definitely not pretty. Do not make them feel disposable, make them feel valued. Let them know that they are unique and special. Try not to make your conversations sound robotic or coerced. I always try to develop a genuine interest in their actions and opinions.

3) Gaining Control

I don’t know if you have noticed this, but bloggers greatly value freedom of speech and tend to be highly opinionated individuals. A person can’t be blamed for trying to be independent with their words, but you need to be the one imposing limits and restrictions. Gaining control over the message conveyed by your bloggers is no easy task and requires a special set of skills.

Do’s

In order to control the message, the first thing I do is get the blogger on the same page as me. Once that is done, the rest of the things simply fall into place. With a little bit of effort, you can easily influence the words of your blogger without having a stranglehold on them. Soon enough, your blogger will be converted into an enthusiastic ambassador for your brand.

Don’t

Do not ask bloggers to submit work to you for approval. It’s considered a form of disrespect and disrupts the team chemistry. I have also noticed that asking the bloggers to follow a certain script does not pay off in the long run. Blog readers are very perceptive, and they can easily understand whether a blogger’s freedom of speech is being restricted or not.

How to Use Slideshare To Generate Over 100,000 Visitors

September 13, 2015 by Editorial Staff

The number 100,000 holds a very special place in the heart of people in charge of running websites. This is because, if you own a website, the one of the first objectives or goals that you set for yourself is reaching the 100,000th visitor mark.

Reaching that number gives you a sense of satisfaction like no other and allows you to take pride in the fact that your business is now capable of generating huge volumes of traffic. If you want the website of your business to benefit your enterprise, your sole mission should be to get as many people interested and invested in your website as you possibly can.

Untapped Gold Mines

Generating 100,000 visitors is certainly no easy task and is not one that can be accomplished overnight. However, you can make the difference between waiting for years to reach that number and waiting for a couple of months or few before your visitor count far exceeds 100,000.

As a matter of fact, there are a number of ways in which you can facilitate the rapid increase in the influx of visitors to your website. The problem with having a large variety to choose from is that we usually end up selecting the wrong and mediocre options for ourselves. Indeed, the best cost free techniques to generate huge traffic are left untouched, ignored and sometimes unknown.

Ignorance Towards SlideShare

A prime example of the ignorance of web marketers towards clever and cost effective traffic generating techniques is the lack of attention paid to SlideShare. A lot of the people who are in charge of running websites belonging to various business entities have failed to capitalize on the use of SlideShare.

SlideShare can be a highly influential tool when it comes to capturing the attention of the crowd and leading them towards your website. As mentioned before, SlideShare is completely free to use, and therefore it would be quite foolish for anyone to miss out on the opportunity of increasing web traffic by making the best use of SlideShare.

Lack of Understanding of SlideShare

SlideShare is not properly understood by the general masses. To clear the confusions, SlidShare is in essence a social media website, quite unlike Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. It differs from mainstream social media not as much in its operation as it does in its use.

People simply do not see SlideShare in the same light as they see Facebook and Twitter. Those who are not familiar with SlideShare may jump to the conclusion that this social media site has limited functions and restricted features. This is not true. As a matter of fact, SlideShare allows people to go a step further and exchange presentations that they created along with regular text messages.

Why is it important to share presentations?

Are they not better left off in pen drives and hard disks? Well, presentations have been a very important form of expression for people whether it isfor business purposes or personal reasons. Presentations have been in use for a good number of years, and with more advanced technology being incorporated into presentations, it seems quite likely that presentations are here for the long haul.

How SlideShare Increases Visitors

The basic idea of SlideShare is to give people an opportunity to upload and share their meticulously crafted informative, entertaining and often times hilarious presentations with others. If your presentation has the X-factor and appeals to the general audience, then chances are that it will be viewed by millions of people on the internet through SlideShare.

With high quality and in demand presentations in your possession, you can easily drive traffic to your website and go higher up the rankings in Google’s list of useful websites. Presentations are after all considered to part of the content in content marketing, and the better the presentations are, the higher is the chance of a website being marketable.

In a nutshell, high quality presentations posted on your website results in high quantities of traffic to your website. It is a fairly simple equation that should not puzzle you.

Tips and Tricks to Drive Traffic to Your Website

If you are looking for specific ways to convert the hard work you have put into a presentation into gold for your website, then take heed of the follow 5 pieces of advice.

1) Upload Presentations of the Highest Quality

Everyone with a commendable job in the corporate world knows how to make presentations, and you can bet that they are working on one right now. With so many presentations being created every single day, you need to stand out from the crowd by uploading presentations that reflect the best of your abilities. Give your SlideShare followers nothing but the absolute best, and they will be charmed by your extraordinary skills .

2) Simplified Structure and Concise Points

If you want more people to visit your website, then you need to come up with material that will be easily understood by these people. One of the cardinal sins of SlideShare is coming up with presentations slides that have an over complicated structure. Keep the fanciness aside for a while and resort to concise points in plain, simple and if needed, informal language.

3) Long Tail Keywords

Long tail keywords can work wonders with your SlideShare presentations. This is because SlideShare is a very high ranking website. With long tail keywords in place, Google will direct more online users towards your website.

4) Include URL of Your Website

Your purpose of formulating an entire presentation on SlideShare is to get more people flocking to your website. Therefore, it is imperative that you include the URL of your website. Make sure that the URL appears naturally and does not look like a coerced inclusion.

5) Promote the Presentation

Regardless of the quality of your presentation, the lack of promotion of your material will not see a rise in the number of visitors, let alone crossing the 100,000 mark. The idea behind promoting your work on other social media sites such as Facbook and Twitter is to stir up a buzz for your presentation and the website that it represents.

How to Find Profitable Long Tail Keywords that Dominate Google Search

September 9, 2015 by Editorial Staff

The importance of long tail keywords in SEO campaigns cannot simply be stressed enough. A lot has been written, read and talked about it. Even though it can be hard to convince a good portion of the clients that pursuing long tail keywords can actually lower the search volume and drive more traffic to the website, there is no denying the fact that this is a much better long term strategy than going for appealing core terms that have a high search volume.

The whole comparison sounds slightly complicated, and maybe even a little skewed, but once you get to understand the inner dynamics of pursuing long tail keywords, you will be sold on the idea of resorting to this particular SEO strategy.

The Struggle to Find Long Tail Keywords

The big challenge is not to persuade the clients to go for long tail keywords and forget about appealing core terms. That is perhaps the easiest task in the whole SEO campaign. What is really difficult is coming up with valid ways to identify profitable long tail keywords that can dominate the Google search engine.

Undoubtedly, identifying core keywords is a much easier job than finding out which long tail key terms will bring you the gold. If you are struggling to find long tail keywords, then there is absolutely no reason for you to lose hope. There are plenty of tricks and techniques to master the art of identifying long tail keywords.

You simply need to be focused and patient throughout the whole SEO campaign to make this strategy work.

Finding Useful Long Tail Keywords Is Not Expensive Per Se

There is no shortage of places when it comes to looking for excellent long tail keyword candidates. The common misconception regarding pursuing long tail keywords is that the job requires plenty of finance. This is not true. Huge sums of money are not prerequisites to cracking the long tail keyword code.

You do not necessarily have to drain your wallets and empty your company’s bank accounts to make this strategy work to perfection. All you need to do is have a little bit of faith in Google’s Keyword Tool or other equally impressive free services. You do not have to be concerned about the number of services. The variety will take you by surprise for sure.

Places to Find Long Tail Keywords

The following are examples of the most popular sources that people resort to when trying to dig up long tail keyword suggestions.

1) Google Suggest and Related Words

People usually use the Google Suggest and Related words to expand their search and look for more browsing options. Who would have ever thought that this simple Google feature can turn out to be a money maker for businesses around the world?

The idea here is quite simple. Whenever you type in a keyword, Google provides you with a short list of related words that actual people have typed in. Since these words are typed by real people, it allows you to stumble upon long tail keywords that are worth pursuing.

That being said, not all the words in the suggestions list are useful and appropriate key words. Do filter out the words before taking them aboard your SEO campaign.

2) Analyzing Your Competition

Studying your competition can yield several dividends. For one, it allows you to have an insight into all the developments that your rivals have made ahead of you, and thus it gives you an opportunity to catch up quickly.

If you are doing your homework on your competitors, especially those which are technically more advanced than you, then you are likely to find out that your competitors already have an established set of long tail keywords that are reaping rewards for them.

Keeping the jealousy and envy aside, you need to realize that learning about the innovative techniques used by your competitors makes your task much easier. You now know exactly which long tail keywords to incorporate in your SEO campaign.

This, however, does not give you the license to completely mimic the activities of your competitors. By learning about their keywords, you can have a fundamental idea of what you should be looking to target.

If you end up using the exact same keywords as they do, you will always be a step behind. The best place to look for long tail keywords used by your competitors is in their meta tags, titles, snippets and other descriptions.

3) Knowledge from Natural Language

When people make queries, they often use the same language that they use for making web searches. Therefore, it is important that you carefully observe the words, phrases and sentences that your prospective clients use in forums, threads, emails and other sources of discussion and education.

More often than not, these words will be a direct indicator of the kind of long tail keywords that you need to be pursuing. This is a technique that is seldom used by SEO experts, mainly because it defies the general conventions associated with SEO. All you have to do to make this strategy work is head over to comment threads and pick up keywords that people post repeatedly.

4) Professional Tools

Relying on the aforementioned tactics will do your SEO campaign a world of favours, but it will not push it across the finishing line. For that, you need the services of professional tools, both paid and free of cost.

Many of these tools are designed for the specific purpose of helping you find long tail keywords that are easily missed out by SEO marketers. Names of the most commonly used professional tools are listed below. You are highly recommended to give at least a couple of them a try.

a) Ubersuggest

b) Google’s Adwords Keyword Tool

c) Google Analytics

d) Google Webmaster Tools

When combined with the other SEO tactics mentioned above, these professional tools can help you find a goldmine of the finest long tail keywords.
