Free Website Promotion…Why Not? Posted By: Franco Yong
WordPress has been gaining more and more popularity over other blogging platforms. If you haven’t done so, consider doing so now. You can even have it run on autopilot with automated income from affiliate programs such as Clickbank, Amazon and others. Of course not forgetting, income from Google Adsense.
These autopilot sites can be installed with a step-by-step video tutorial of just 40-minute running time. In under 2 hours you can have your first auto blog up. Of course once you know the ins-and-outs after the first installation, your second blog and many more others can be installed in under 15 minutes or less. And all these are just additional auto blogs with money-making opportunities.
If you had to blog, why not earn money as well? Your choice really - passively or actively.
Oh yes!! Another good feature about it is that while you are away on holiday, your blog content can be automatically fed with posts from other people to maintain freshness until you are able to write.
This is how I set up this particular site that you are seeing right now. It took me under 1 hour to it up and running about 10 days ago. Best of all, WordPress gives me an option to import all my other blogs from Blogger, etc. I did just that. Voila!! All my previous posts in my other blogs are found at this site too.

More on being a successful blogger.
1. Create a Blog (Chapters 2 & 3)
Follow Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 on how to create a blog. Your personal blog is a fantastic way to showcase your writing skills, flair for design and passion for blogging. To begin with, blog on a subject or more topics that you are very passionate about. Your blog is your world.
2. Learn To Write Well
Although you may be great with words, you can always improve. Learning to write effectively. By doing so, you can attract readership to your blog. Remember - you’ll also need to maintain readership loyalty.
I personally find it extremely difficult to write in a caustic, humorous style, one that is full of witty sarcasm. Frequent blogging can lead you to develop a grasp of the written words.
Employers going to scrutinize your blog and writing samples. Learning to develop a strong and creative personal style can indeed be very helpful. Use a spellchecker to finally ensure there are no spell mistakes!
3. Identify Your Niche
Identifying a niche that you are passionate about. Perhaps, gadgets, art, mobile phones, dieting, nutrition, exercise, relationships or something that appeals to you dearly to your heart? Start with something you like to do and start building a noticeable presence in the field through your personal blog. Actively participate in the industry or relevant blog community or communities.
4. Build Professional Credibility
After starting a blog you might want to start building some professional credibility by writing for the press, magazines, corporations or NGOs. You can blog for their local community/group or organization. At the on-start, forget about profitability. Showcases will gain you entry with credentials that you have experience working as a professional writer.
Furthermore, you could have a blog that primarily deals with sponsored posts, which would also show creativity by integrating corporate objectives into the overall feel or format of the blog.
Now you’re ready to take the first step to begin working into being a professional blogger.

Just below here is what Technorati said about themselves as at May 24, 2007.
Welcome to Technorati
Currently tracking 82.7 million blogs
Technorati is the recognized authority on what’s happening on the World Live Web, right now. The Live Web is the dynamic and always-updating portion of the Web. We search, surface, and organize blogs and the other forms of independent, user-generated content (photos, videos, voting, etc.) increasingly referred to as “citizen media.”
But it all started with blogs. A blog, or weblog, is a regularly updated journal published on the web. Some blogs are intended for a small audience; others vie for readership with national newspapers. Blogs are influential, personal, or both, and they reflect as many topics and opinions as there are people writing them.
Blogs are powerful because they allow millions of people to easily publish and share their ideas, and millions more to read and respond. They engage the writer and reader in an open conversation, and are shifting the Internet paradigm as we know it.
On the World Live Web, bloggers frequently link to and comment on other blogs, creating the type of immediate connection one would have in a conversation. Technorati tracks these links, and thus the relative relevance of blogs, photos, videos etc. We rapidly index tens of thousands of updates every hour, and so we monitor these live communities and the conversations they foster.
The World Live Web is incredibly active, and according to Technorati data, there are over 175,000 new blogs (that’s just blogs) every day. Bloggers update their blogs regularly to the tune of over 1.6 million posts per day, or over 18 updates a second.
Technorati. Who’s saying what. Right now.
Now, having understood what Technorati is all about and does, please follow the steps below to “Ping” your blog(s).To come to this stage, it is assumed that you have completed the steps in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 in creating your blogs with Blogger and WordPress respectively.

What are the traffic push and pull for our blogs? (we shall leave keywords, PPC and SEO out of this chapter for now).
Generally, the four (4) key sources of traffic are -
1. Create direct/organic traffic
2. Buy search engine traffic
3. Lean on networking traffic
4. Indirect Referral traffic
1. Create direct / organic traffic. “Build great contents for your blog and traffic will flow-in”. Content is the ticket to successful traffic pull. Build a blog niched to your chosen audience and traffic will be attracted to pulled in.
Use significant keywords loved by your audience and the search engines will crawl and send traffic to you. Simple write fabulous contents and Google will give you a helping hand.
2. Buy search engine traffic. The words associated with this sort of traffic source include Google Adwords, Pay-Per-Click (PPC), Yahoo Directory Listing, advertising, etc.
My personal experience with Google Adwords (sponsored links) on my website selling teddy bears was an amazement to me. I can never imagine traffic coming to my website in the first couple of hours from all over the world!! A must try and certain, such advertising can deliver. And one can then understand why internet marketing really does have a level playing field with the world market, literally, at your feet.
3. Lean on network traffic. Networking is POWER!!. Get your strategic partner to support and write testimonials about your blog. This brings credibility to your blog.
4. Indirect / Referral Traffic. Here you build links where other blogs are linked back to your blog and promoting yours. Digg, SpicyPage, Mybloglog, del.icio.us, Technorati, FuelMyBlog, Blipoo, Myspace, Squidoo, Bumpzee are some of the sites worth consideration.
These traffic source is instant. Unlike SEO that needs weeks to pull visitors to your blog, Web 2.0 traffic is almost instantaneous. Referral traffic is absolutely free!! What else can one asks for?
These 4 traffic generators have differing monetization strategies as a result of the tactics employed. These strategies will be shared in later chapters as we progress. Do come back and visit.
(Tip: Do you know that visitors coming from the search engines are the ones that would most likely click your Google Adsense ads? Yes. And Web 2.0 traffic are the least likely to click the ads.)
