Auto Blogging why it fails every time.

January 10, 2012 By

Concept blogging, is all about finding a niche and producing content that people want to read.

Managing content is not easy, it is not push button, it involves working and doing research…

however, developing this type of blog could hurt your business more than help, learn more about that now.

The use of Auto blogs, has been very popular for about the last 4 years.

Google may be about to start targeting more marginal websites, could auto blogs be next

The number one thing to remember when thinking about developing a website is not what to put on your site but what not to put.

Why Auto blogs just do not work and why you should avoid using them.

About every day on Flippa you can see an autoblog for sale, sometimes the websites go for a few bucks but more and more we are seeing a decline in the perceived value of what auto blogging actually is.

The lights are on but no one is home, sounds like an old song, well it is, and like the song, auto blogging is just the same way the lights are on but no one is at home and google knows it too, dont think they dont.

The reasons are numerous but it all comes down to just one thing.

Are you willing to operate a website?

It is not about the website or the design it is all about the material and the content.

If no one sees it they will not come…

If the lights are on but no one is home, you cannot sell anything.

The simple truth about auto blogging is this if the light are on but no one is home, they just will not come.

The tragedy of the auto blog is that it can never succeed.

Imagine an ant hill, where all the ants did the same thing every day, they eat the same food every day, they listen to the same music every day, never a change, always a grey existence that never changes, that is what most websites are like these days, they just sit there withering away because no one is really visiting them, they are like that ant hill, full of ants, but for the most part no one in the entire world knows about those ants so they go about their lives, oblivious to the rest of the world.

That is what an Auto blog is like, an ant hill where everyone is busy busy busy, but no one knows about them…

Are you lazy?  If you are thats ok, lots of very successful are lazy, but there is one big difference.

They work smart, lazy but smart…

Chances are  you have seen these, ads that promise the moon for the auto blogging life style, the set it and forget it mind set.

But guess what, you already know, it does not work at all.

There are so many of these auto blogging platforms, from WordPress to literally more than you can imagine, each one claiming that they can give you what no one else can deliver.

The truth is that Auto Blogging does not work…

Perhaps that is not what you wanted to hear, but sadly it is the truth, I ran several blogs manually, posting every single day sometimes 10 to 12 times a day, sometimes more. I was able to achieve some success, I started getting some traffic, I started making a little from affiliate commissions, like ebay and amazon and yes even adsense.

But then I made a huge mistake, I got lazy…

I started looking for an easier way to do the same thing and get me here there is nothing wrong with that ok, but and here is where I went wrong, you have to know that what you are doing is the right thing to do.

My mistake, cost me several High PR website ratings.

I paid more than $150 for an auto blogging platform, which was reputed to be better than anything out there, it was touted to work when everything else failed to work, but after loosing my PR ratings where I used this auto-blogging platform, I finally realized what I had done wrong, I trusted what someone else told me, just so they could make a few bucks.

So actually I spent a lot of money trying out different systems, I even tried paying a Virtual Assistant to post for me so I could see if that would work, but sadly that too failed, because I found that you have to have at least some interest in what you are posting about.

If you have ever had a good PR ranking then you know how important it can be to building your level of success, because once you get one good ranking, you can use that to link to lower ranked blogs and in turn improve their rankings, it really is a building block to your success.

There may be a few that are successful with auto blogging, but so far I have not see the first one that can say they are successful for more than 30 to 60 days, because, I saw some good traffic in that period, but after that it all went bad, and then it went from bad to worse.

So why does auto blogging software fail to achieve what the people selling them claim?

One of the most important things you can do for your blog is to give it that human touch and that is not often easy to do with automated software, the reason for this is that every single one of these auto blogging software solutions, leaves behind a trail, usually it is something small, like the same type of formatting post after post.

It is this trail that alerts the search engines that something is not right about the blog you might wonder why it matters, all I can tell you is that it does matter and it matters a lot, because you can go from a great rank to no rank and you can go from great traffic to no traffic and that is definitely not what you want.

So the next time you see an auto blogging software special and you read about how you can just set it up once and just forget it, just remember that you read it here, it is a waste of your money and unless you plan on monitoring and baby sitting your blog, you will never see any measurable success.

writing for the web

December 28, 2011 By

Developing websites and content.

Opening a business would of course require a lot of things, to get straight to the point, you need a capital. To make money requires money as well. But of course, with the versatility the internet offers, there are many ways you could find that could help optimize the potential of your site or business in generating traffic.

While there are ways to jumpstart your traffic flows, many sites donít have the resources that others have to generate more traffic for your site. Well, you donít have to spend a cent; all you need is the proper mindset and a lot of eagerness. You also must have the drive and perseverance to do hard work and research to generate more traffic for your site.

Take advantage of online forums and online communities. The great thing about forums and online communities is that you can target a certain group that fits the certain demographic that you are looking for. You can discuss about lots of things about the niche that you represent or offer. Another great advantage is that you know what you are getting into and you will be prepared.

With online communities and forums you can build a reputation for your company. Show them what you are made of and wow them with your range of expertise about topics and subjects, with that you can build a reputation and build trust with the people in your expertise and knowledge.

You can also make use of newsletters. Provide people with a catalog of your products and interesting and entertaining articles. If you make it really interesting and entertaining, more people will sign up for your newsletter and recommend it to other people. The more people who signs up for your newsletter, the more people there will be that will go to your site increasing your traffic.

Another great idea is trading links with other sites. You donít have to spend a cent. All you have to do is reach an agreement with another webmaster. With exchanging links, the efforts both sites do will benefit both sites. Every traffic that goes to the site could potentially click on the link of your site and visit your site as well. This works well especially when both sites feature the same niche.

Write articles that will capture the attention of people that have an interest in your product.

Writing articles that can develop an interest in what your website has to offer.

Writing articles that provide good service and knowledge to other people could provide the necessary steps your traffic deprived website needs.

Many sites offer free submission and posting of your articles. When people find interest in your articles they have a good chance of following the track by finding out where the article originated. Include a link or a brief description of your company with the article and there ís a great probability that they will go to your site.

Developing good content for your site is all about what you know than what you do not know.

Many search engines track down the keywords and keyword phrases your site uses and how they are used. It is not a requirement that a content should be done by a professional content writer. You could do your on but you have to make content for your site that is entertaining as well as informational. It should provide certain requirements as well as great quality.

Most of the time internet users use the search engines that produce results and they want to find what they are looking for. Search engines in return use keyword searching in aiding their search results. With the right keywords, you could get high rankings in search engine results without the higher costs associated with some services that may not provide that much in ROI, so all in all you might get better results with marketing and developing your own content than using stale content that does not provide the best results for your efforts.

Affiliate programs Dead?

December 7, 2011 By

Will Affiliate programs soon be dying a slow and painful death?

It is possible if we do not take action to deter the agenda of large corporations that want to reduce or eliminate online competition in some sales areas.

If you have ever considered owning your own website selling your own product then there will never be a better time to break into the business.

Are affiliate programs dead and did the FTC kill it?

Can you really make money selling other peoples products?

The good the Bad and the Ugly, it is interesting, that among all the different affiliate opportunities, out there, and all the methods of marketing to those affiliates.

There are literally hundreds of methods and sales opportunities out there yet many of these so called affiliate programs are not as good as they advertise, so how do you know if your promoting a program that will pay off and how do you know that you can trust the vendor?

The answer is you don’t and that is where most people go wrong.

You might wonder why people even bother at all, but the thing is for every one way to earn revenue, there are five ways to take that revenue away.

This begs the question, do you think that most affiliate programs are a viable source of income or are they just a great way to get free advertising from the vendors perspective it is a win win situation, from the affiliates view, you really do have to jump through hoops in order to even get a commission.

Today, I reviewed an offer for a set of review documents, the offer was related to affiliate opportunities, they claimed that you could make money by providing reviews and selling reviews of products, now the problem here is two fold, or probably three fold, lets start with one.

  1. It requires you apply for various affiliate programs.
  2. It requires that you develop a sales page.
  3. It requires traffic, from a real, organic buying source.
  4. It requires a buying public willing to buy from your affiliate link.
  5. It requires keyword research.
  6. It requires real buyers who are will to buy the product you are advertising.
  7. It requires, the ability to out perform every other person out there doing the same thing.So when you consider this information, what is the real advantage of working for someone else trying to sell their product for a buck or two commission?

When you think of it like this, you have to wonder, at the rock bottom price of 10 bucks, you might make your money back or you might not, make anything at all.

So, now that you have the most likely fact, what will you do, will you choose, to pursue a prospect that you might be able to get a sale or would you rather do something more useful.

Why Product Creation, makes more sense than trying to sell a product and collect a pittance.

Strictly speaking, selling your own product makes a lot more sense than trying to sell someone else’s product, for a number of reasons, but the most important reason is that when you are selling your own product, you are the vendor not the affiliate.

Then you can get affiliates to sell your products, make sense, we think so too, so after reviewing that offer for reviews that were frankly so restricted, (cant do this, cant do that)

I decided to pass, dont need junk and dont need garbage.
