Boost your blogs!
Blogs continue to be part of your internet marketing arsenal. To get the most out of your blogs, try the following:
- Link banners internally so that your visitors remain in your site while they are taken to a different page. To do this, you need to adjust your links so that they open in a new window without leaving your site.
- Add audio and video to your posts because studies show that the eye is attracted first to a moving object on a web page. Internet users love watching videos and Google ranks webpages with videos well.
- Give your blog a face lift as well with a fresh theme and changes on your side bar.
- Add “Recent posts” because viewers love knowing what’s new on your site.
- Register and get a gravatar or avatar containing your photo which will appear beside your comments.
- Another effective internet marketing technique is to add a “squeeze” after every post. While not all blog readers like it, web site analytics show that it boosts conversions nonetheless.
