Recently I am trying to use blogs to promote my business websites, most of the blogs I am working on are wordpress based, as we all know that WordPress is ideal for almost all kinds of blogging needs, people even use it as CMS, together with Open Source License make the WordPress the most famous and versatile blogging software of all time.
After a while I believed that build my own blogs will be more beneficial, because subsequently I can use my own blogs to promote my other websites, this is not something new, there are a lot of blog networks out there doing just that, the thing is that I don’t control those blogs, and I have no way to post to those blogs, obviously I will have to pay the owner to use their blogs, probably not cheap at all.
Its quite difficult to manage more than a few blogs manually, if you’re not using your blogs as spamming device, to write real stuff for your blogs will be time consuming, its never easy to build successful blogs. There are some interesting examples, let’s examine this one, Tie Downs, it’s name is pretty cute, and there are a lot of interesting articles on it, since this is not a themed blog, there are all kinds of posts on the site. Check this one out, article distributing, this blog has a theme, all posts are following the same theme, and ranks well for quite a few keywords. I can show you a lot more sites, but the basics are all the same. One more important point, some of your blogs should not be very serious ones, do some casual postings randomly, just like this blog, Article Marketing, your blogging network looks more natural with these casual blogs.
When you already have a few interesting blogs, add more blogs when you can, use the old ones to promote the new ones, get your own little blog network going is not that too difficult. This is just an idea, the real stuff will be more complicated, follow the white hat tricks and ethic codes of online conduct you will be fine.
