Here’s a couple of tips to get started
Blog marketing tips
Who: What segment or target audience are you trying to reach with your blogging? These are the people that are interested in buying your services or products. Try to gather as much information about them that you can. This will help you craft your message better.
What: What interests these people? What information do they require? Once you know this, you can write your blog post on the information that they need.
Focus: To entice your audience to take an action, write informative blog posts on a specific topic. Explain the topic as the authority. This is a powerful way of getting the attention of like minded individuals.
Format: Write your blog posts with your own personality. Don’t write for the search engines because they will not come. Explain a specific topic in your own words.
When to post: Make a point of regularly publishing blog posts. One a month won’t do it. Due to the real time nature of the web, publish a couple of blog posts every week.
