How To Run An Internet Marketing Blog

This is Christopher Stigson, a blogger who has spent hundreds of hours trying to figure out the blogging game. I think I've finnally cracked part of the code and I'm sharing this with you today. The point of this article is to run a test and at the same time share some knowledge about internet marketing blogs.

It's a common thing to hear about success stories on profitable blogs these days.. Some generate amounts of up to $100,000/month and beyond. Profitable they are. You as a blog owner probably need to do a few things differently in order to get the most out of your internet marketing techniques and take a few steps to increase search engine rankings, make more money and have it run on autopilot.

If you want a traffic pulling blog you need more than just search engine rankings. See, there are tons of free traffic that can come from RSS syndication, bookmarking, social bookmarking and more. It's SO, SO easy when you DO it. If you use tools like RSS submit your site can spread like wildfire across the net, and fast. You also want to "deep link" your blog posts. This means having more "page rank" and incoming links being passed to multiple PAGES on your SITE.

Now as for tips on running an internet marketing blog that relates soley towards internet marketing or affiliate marketing, eBay marketing or traffic, you need to choose a specific topic and "niche it". This means find a topic within the general category "internet marketing".

When you have got a niche within the "internet marketing niche" it's easy to start generate some income. See, most people are targeting "make money" and "how to make money" and "make money online", but this is NOT what you want to do. Instead head over to keyword research tools and find long tail keywords in the internet marketing niche.

Simple example could be "traffic generation". That's our "IM sub-niche". Great. Let's go do some keyword research before we get carried away. Let's say we type in "traffic" and it spits out "increase search engine traffic" as a viable keyword. Then head over to Google and type it in. Now head over to Yahoo and use "link:http://www.yourcompetition.com" to see the backlink count for your competition. If it's below 1,000, go for it! There's our sub-niche-long-tail-keyword. Yippie, let's get going!

Now when you have a topic and a keyword it's time to create a domain name that has similar or an exact name of the keyword. So "www.increase-search-engine-traffic.com" would be ideal for "increase search engine traffic". You can go as far as doing "www.increasesearchenginetraffic.com", but I like the dashes. For search engine rankings, I personally haven't seen it matter.

Now you write relevant content about "increase search engine traffic" in your blog. Simple? Yes, but you also need about 10-20 keywords more to start writing articles just like this one. When you have done that, post them on various article directories online and see traffic, rankings and profits pouring in!
