Blog Promotion Basics [for Everyone]

ME Liz Strauss wrote this at 9:49 am

If you look up–under the logo for Successful Blog–you’ll see the words content that is organized, thorough, and relevant. That means I plan to capture and present the basics for everything. I also plan to make sure that those posts–like this one–offer information for everyone, not just new bloggers. Oh and, my other plan is that these posts won’t be boring. :)

Well, it used to say that. Now, we just live it.

I’ve hidden a posting Easter egg of sorts in this one. Hope most of you don’t have it already.

This post is based on Duncan Riley’s Building blog traffic for newbies. If you already know the basics, read the 31 comments that follow the post.

Duncan lays out six main points he pulled together when he realized that people seemed to know little about promoting blogs. I’ll list them here [with my notes], and you can get the detail from the post.

And what we both agree is the most important one:

I’d also like to add two if I might.

Of course, the best promotion is quality content when the traffic gets there.

PS. Do we have to use the word “newbies”? Has anyone got a better one?

    I’m interested in hearing more about this “don’t use blogrolling” because it “stuffs up search engines.” I’ve never heard this before.

    Hi Jason,
    Thanks for asking.
    Duncan speaks a bit about it in his post. In short I think he’s speaking of the Blogrolling program that takes your links and pack them into one line of javascipt code. It’s unpacking that single line of code that’s a problem.

    It’s user-friendly on the front end, but doesn’t pay off on the back end.

    I use Blogrolling internally on my blog, because my persoanl blog is on blogger and it’s easier to use blog rolling to organize my archieves than to unpack and recode their meta template tags.

    Think it like a stick shift in a car or a porpietary computer system, They make it really easy for you to use, but you always pay for that “ease of use.”

    On a personal level, people have linked my blog throw blogrolling months ago and those links still have not shown up on Technorati or Truth Laid Bear. I’ve even inserted the links in through Technorati’s ping form directly–they just don’t take.

    Hope that helps,
    Liz

    Ironically, I’m getting a ‘404 Not Found’ error on your link to Duncan’s post on “Building blog traffic for newbies” (http://www.blogherald.com/2004.11/25/building-blog-traffic-for-newbies/).

    I believe the the dot that follows ‘2004′ should be a slash.

    “Find websites in your niche that would like to list your link.”

    I agree. I brazenly asked one of the big blogs in my niche (gridskipper) to check out escapeblog. He did! And he even blogged about my blog. Just need to muster up more courage to ask more blogs. hehe

    Well, I’m gonna have to be the bad guy here and ask the obvious.

    You say ” Offer to exchange links in your links section [in the sidebar].
    Link to small sites without exchange through sidebar or a post. ”

    Yet I see no links exchanged here. Whassamatter, don’t wanna share that PR3 ?

    You could call a links section ‘Successful Friends’.

    ( I’m gonna go hide and wait for the backlash ;-) )

    Good on you, Melissa. That’s one of the best things about blogging. Most folks understand the value of doing a good turn and how it comes back in the future. Like right now, you just gave them good advertising. :)

    Hi Mike,
    Don’t those posts with the giant logos and links that also have links on the Successful and Outstanding Bloggers page count? I don’t understand. I checked your links you have a full count link from us, plus a link from another SOB who wrote about hers and the blogs she was listed with. What am I missing?

    I’d never hurt you, Mike. I’d let my brothers Angelo and Pasquale do that. :)

    Thank you, Liz; great tips.

    One of the mistakes I think I’ve made as an upstart is providing readers with too many links out. Your suggestion about blogrolling is a point well-taken. Time to start paring that list down… :)

    Thanks again!

    Would you look a that! Did anyone notice the new logo up at the top of the page? As of today Successful Blog is a member of the 9rules Network! Thanks to all of you we’re Major League.

    Hi John! Welcome.
    John, I don’t know whether you need to pair the list down. Just don’t use the blogrolling program to list them. Of cours, maybe you want to separate out the ones who are no longer posting. :)

    Teh Blogfather said

    Good points. Always one for using reverse psychology, another way to promote your blog is to let people shamelessly promote their blogs on *your* blog. Doesn’t work for everyone, but when it works, boy does it work!

    PS: try “starters” in place of “newbies”.

  17. November 8th, 2005 at 6:56 pm
    ME "Liz" Strauss said

    Hi Blogfather,
    There’s a good point in your use of hyperbole and it’s well in keeping with the unstated credo of blogging–be generous and it will come back to you. Allowing people to promote themselves on your blog is a great example of that–as long as they contribute something you value too–which in your case they do.

    Starters is a possibility . . .
    I was thinking Beginning Oustanding Bloggers, but then they’d be BOBs. :)

    Mike said

    OWWWW !

    Tell Guido & Angelo to leave my legs alone !

    You are right about the link love you’ve sent and I truly appreciate it :-)

    What I was wondering was if the Scriv-man had you guys on a no links-to-those-I-love policy.

    I see that must not be the case, as I see some other Fine ( or is it Nine ) Fools blogs have links sections.

    The best part of all this is: I found the other FF blogs I’ve been missing and now will be reading Escape, Chef and maybe a couple of others.

    BUT, remember this…SuccessfulBlog is my favorite !

    Now will you tell Angelo & Guido to let go of my leg ?

  21. November 8th, 2005 at 9:16 pm
    ME "Liz" Strauss said

    Mike,
    Actually, I was getting to know the lay of the land and thought I’d get to know my readers first. My thinking was that until there was thriving content and life on the blog–a hundred links in the sidebar wouldn’t matter. I only had so much time to get and keep your attention. :)

    BTW, one of the reasons you’re having a problem is that his name is Pasquale, not Guido–Angelo and Pasquale. Pasquale is the one who used to call me with a whistle. :)
    Liz

    Okay guys, let him go. He’s got a family.

  22. November 8th, 2005 at 9:43 pm
    Mike said

    Thanks for the mercy and I understand the I’m-not-ready-yet links thing. Thought that was what it was, but we love to hear you say it.

    Just checkin’ on ol’ Scrivs…making sure he ain’t holdin’ back all his link love.

    FF is a pretty fair lil network…don’t wannna get steamrolled by that blogmeister Scrivs ;-)

    BTW - Pasquale reeks of garlic….hmmmm.

  23. November 8th, 2005 at 9:52 pm
    ME "Liz" Strauss said

    Nah, Scrivs, hasn’t told me a thing about how I share my love. :)

    Did you not notice my linksloving reader that as of this day your favorite FF blog now carries the 9rules logo?

    We’re in the major leagues now!

    Ah datta boy Pasquale, he does like his linguini and clams.

    Mike said

    O.M.G. ! I’ve been conversing with a star !

    Well, now you’ve gotta move that link outta the FF listings. I don’t think it’s legal to be in 2 networks at once. Some kinda guvmint thang.

    That Scrivs is a blogmeister and I know it.

    Now that you guys are chums, tell him to stop by and see me every now and then. Maybe he’ll snatch up summa our talent and make ‘em into big timers !

    Does he know I’m the big boy of golf blogs ? The guru of sales blogs ? Has he seen Hollywood Yesterday ? Chinese-Wisdom ? We got it. Dream blog ? Only us.

    And he get’s all de hoopla. You know why ? Cause he deserves it ! FF and 9r are both doing a great job and he’s doin’ a great job of steering the ship. I hope to tag along and watch the master and learn.

    Oh, by the way…..Congratulations ! This blog is gonna be one of the places to be…if only to catch my comments ! ;-)

    HART (1-800-HART) said

    Honestly, I must disagree with the Forum suggestion, unless it’s a forum for bloggers. I used to be a ‘big hit’ at one small business forum (still go) and spend lots of time and try to help lots of people and learn from other people etc etc and so on … then I started blogging….

    (1) It’s hard to come back to the NON-blog forum atmosphere ..
    (2) The NON-blog forum readers .. “Just don’t get it” .. No offense, but I stopped linking my websites and blog URL to promote them in those forums, because well .. those readers would be reading blogs if they knew what blogs were in the first place. Fortunately, I’ve got 33 fingers and toes to count all the people that may have come on a ‘good’ day (or a ‘bad’ day) and just look at the one page they see from the blog link URL and .. get turned off and don’t bookmark you or come back to read you.

    For this reason, sometimes a more appropriate term for the ‘newbies’ might be –> oblivious

    PS.. Nice blog “ME” .. it will be a nice daily read!

    Hey Mike,
    No worries I’m not forgetting where I got my start. I tell Scrivs of your affection every chance I get. I can see that you’re the salesguy of the universe. I’m delighted that you’re going to stay right with us. I’m thinking though we’re going to have to come up with another phrase to replace the use of “tag along.”
    Thanks for your good wishes. We’re very pleased.

    Hi HART!
    I catch your point about forums completely. I think I unconsciously assumed that it would be a blogging forum–but of course I didn’t say so. On the other hand, I didn’t have your experience, so maybe not.

    Thanks for bringing that to the discussion. Especially since at this very moment I’m working on a post on using forums. :)

    No, oblivious is not a better word. Yes, I know you weren’t being serious, because you’ve obviously read enough to know I’ll passionately defend all of my readers. (Well my brothers, Angelo and Pasquale will.)

    Thanks for that nice PS for ME. I hope you’ll keep joining in the conversation. I get really tired of listening to me talking. :)

    HART (1-800-HART) said

    Thanks for the ‘cite’ :)

    I probably should add a few more comments, to be clear though. I’m not anti-forum. I still participate in the forums and I’m not sure I would say that that the wrong forum is worse than being in none .. I just speak for me, and my forum activities in my PRE-blogging days are quite different than it is now. I basically started May 31, 2005. In my case, going through my forum bookmarks and my participation used to be a daily event, now I might go once a week or once in a blue moon and ‘catch up’. I’ve got enough blogline feeds to catch up. AS you know, you never get caught up because the feeds keep coming :-) I used to link my websites and then I used to link my blogs as a tagline/signature - I don’t anymore. The forum could be about e.g. bookkeeping, then people go to my blog and see blogging topics. They won’t bookmark me.

    On the other hand, in my POST-blogging days, I have joined, read and participate in blogging type of forums, or ones that a lot of bloggers participate too - I often leave my PetLvr.com blog signature and tagline when I post. For these comments and self-promotion, I hope some readers will subscribe to my feed and maybe give me a try.

    Did that make sense at all? I find it’s a different mentality altogether now.

  35. November 9th, 2005 at 3:05 pm
    ME "Liz" Strauss said

    Hi HART,
    That makes perfect sense to me and it’s basically what I got from your shorter comment yesterday. Though I do think that the elaboration helps, especially for people who have no experience with forums. Jennifer was just asking over at the ofther article about blogger forums and I told I’d research some for her. Can you give her any direction where to look?

    My .02 tips:
    In addition to leaving your links on forums…
    . Leave comments on blogs (the curious will click)
    . Write articles with seasonal themes (I got lots of hits last month with “great pumpkin charlie brown”
    . Do a quick recast of news in your subject with some well searched keywords or companies(ebay news, microsoft’s latests gadget, Car Insurance…etc..)
    . Mention a pseudo celebrity/ (minor ones will get you more links than bigones)

    Liz: What about Rookie in place of Newbie?

    BTW, regarding blogrolls or lists of links, I’m generally blind to those, a bit like ad-blindness. Unless the name of a blog particularly stands out to me, I’m not that interested in blogrolls.

    I’m much more likely to click through on peoples comments though. Was wondering how many others are like that?

    Hi Gerard,
    Rookie is getting closer. . . I still don’t know that I’d like to be called one. :)

    You know, I’m the same about blogrolls. I only look at them when a link shows up on Tehnorati and I don’t know who gave it to me. But some people do look. I know this because this week I took some light-hearted teasing for not having a blogroll up yet on this site.

    Click through is what I do too. I’ts certainly the most efficient “point of purchase” way. works better in some places than others. But it works better from some platforms than others–Google built blogger in such a way that all signatures click through to the profile not the site–avoiding in-link issues I wonder?–so any blogger names are a double click.

    But to answer your question, basically at least one other–me–is like you. :)

    Does newbie, rookie or other “I’m new to blogging” titles matter? Not to me as long as each person practices common etiquette when posting.

    I’m new to blogging, both in creating a blog site and sharing comments, but not new to posting online in other environments.

    The blogging promotion basics are much appreciated, especially the main points which clear up some of the terminology that’s not always explained.

    Being one of those “newbies” to blogging, I’ve been searching for information on promoting my blog, and I’ve also been looking for other quality blogs around the Net. To say that I’m discerning in my picks would be about right, but I recently stumbled upon 9rules. Through that site, I ended up here, and I must say that I’ll probably be stopping back here quite regularly. Thanks for the quality advice and content!

    I agree that newbie and n00b are both generally used in a derogatory sense, so it’s not something you would want to be called. But I think rookie or beginner are appropriate terms. They don’t carry any negative associates, they simply indicate that the person is new to the field. No sense in being offended by someone using a term that’s accurate. Of course, if it really sticks in your craw, you could try “student” or “apprentice” or something along those lines.

  47. November 11th, 2005 at 6:51 am
    ME Strauss said

    Hi Scott,
    Welcome, join the group.

    I’m with your thinking on the first two points, can’t go with the last. Student suffers from the problem that anyone who wandered in later would wonder what the heck we were talking about and whether we meant college students. I think apprentice has the same problemm as rookie. I’m back to thinking we need to coin own name so that everyone knows it’s not intended to be a word from some other context.

    The only real term so far that anyone has suggest to me is “new guys,” but I worry that sooner or later someone would take offense at that. Maybe I shouldn’t care about someone offended that easily, but in this case, since my purpose is to improve the term, I do. :)

    I’m getting close to am idea. I just know it.
    As they say, watch this space for more! :)

    technorati tagging/pinging seems to have improved. at least it shows now when you update your blog. I am not sure though I really want to keep all the Technorati Tags in every entry I make.

    i’ve been around the net since 1990 (fido generation :o) and still am learning something new every day.

    ME Strauss said

    Hi ihad,
    I don’t blame you for not wanting to tag every post you make and I’m not convinced that you have to. On my personal blog, I find that I just sign every post with my name and that’s enough to tag every post to me. I suppose if I wanted people to search for certain keywords and have readers follow those keywords home to my blog I would tag for them only. That’s how I would work tags. But Technorati isn’t the biggest search engine Google is. I use Technorati for the Blog Finder Categories.

    Congratulations. I bow to your experience. :) We need you around helping us out.

    You have an I-tunes blog, so that might work, if you can get a deal on the cards. It’s an interesting proposition. But then, of course, you have to promote your promotion, that is, you have to get the word out that you’re giving it away or it won’t work.

    Thanks for the compliment. Yeah. I picked out the template, and then we did some serious mods. I’ve still got some changes in mind . . . But I appreciate knowing you like where it’s at.

    Thanks for the content conversation too. Every word of encouragement makes it easier to work harder. :)
    Liz
