Have put together a blog with articles and a calendar of publication with the themes of the next content you have prepared for your readers. Now the challenge is just that: to attract readers! Attract visitors who are interested in your content. Well, to do, before you begin the task of attracting qualified traffic to your blog you should check some details that will help your first-time visitors, repeat visitors become:
Convert visitors into subscribers
For your Visitors subscribe to your blog, there are three static pages to which you should pay close attention:
1) “About” or “About us”
Visitors looking for blog content quality. But to subscribe, they need something more: a connection to the owner. Hence, “humanize” your blog, so that the reader know that you’re behind. Post your photo, consider your personal tastes and also professional experiences and challenges, to show that you are in position to help.
To recognize you as the “head” of that content, your readers want to receive your future articles, and return to your blog. Therefore, the page “about us” is very important, and if not, you arm them now!
2) Contact
Many people do not publish a contact page on his blog for fear of losing privacy or to prevent you from sending spam. However, it is important to have this page, because it allows us to contact you personally and privately (beyond that in a blog, can comment on the notes).
Who can we contact?
- Readers;
- Subscribers;
- Potential customers;
- People to make strategic alliances;
- Companies interested in advertising on our blog …
… Then you see the importance of this page!
How do you prevent spam? The problem exists because there are software that are used for spamming, which detect email addresses on websites and some up to fill the form fields automatically contact and send spam to those addresses. To protect yourself:
- Use plug ins to include a form on your Contact page, using Captcha system. What is CAPTCHA system? those images with fuzzy letters you must transcribe before sending a message from a form. With this system, only a human can see the letters, identify and put in the box, which you can be sure that all the messages you receive through this contact form will be real people.
- Some of the plug ins I’ve tried are: Fast and Secure Forms and Contact Form. You’ll be more protected than if you publish directly your e-mail. You can find more plug ins directly into the plug ins directory of your word press admin panel.
Speaking of RSS I want to focus on their value to generate traffic. I do not want to explain to fumble or get entangled in their specs but I will say that is a family of web feed formats that is encoded in a language called XML.
But this is not what we really want for our main objective.
The fact is that with this powerful tool you can provide to visitors who subscribe to your website through your RSS link and updated information automatically.
I’ll take the example of Google Reader, which is Google’s RSS reader, to give a clearer example of the picture. Enabling an account to access this service from Google you can subscribe to websites that offer you the possibility to subscribe via RSS and look into this account the various updates to such sites. That is, if you’re interested in site A and B, but also C, D and F, you would be a considerable loss of time to visit each of them for new publications on your areas of interest , and the “risk” of not finding new information on more than one of those sites.
So … What is the advantage it gives you the RSS?
As you can see for updates on the various sites from one place and have 1, 5, 10 or 15 sites. All in one place. Then you save an immense amount of time, especially when you go to many places.
But that is only part
What you just mentioned is the RSS from the standpoint of the average user who wants to save time, but now we see what we can do from the standpoint of content publishers, that is, from our own.
Today the concept of Web 2.0 is widely known and its technological complexity is even greater than that of the RSS, which is an element of it, so without going into detail, mention that social networks like Facebook, Twitter, among others are part of this great new world, then …
There are many things that we find it to us, but others, with its particular contribution can be talented, or at best suggest better ideas.
The following 7 tips that I draw from a blog recommends “Do not make these mistakes”:
1 .- Do not embed an image in your email and do not send attachments. This is one of the ways in which your email could be blocked by many mail clients or servers. Therefore, if you want your reader to get more information instead of an attachment, Give him a link to take you directly to that information.
2 .- Never use all caps in your inbox. And this also includes the line “Subject”. Also, write using capital letters is perceived as shouting, and you can imagine that people do not respond well to this.
3 .- Never use the word “Delete” or “Remove” in your mail. By law, we must give everyone the option to stop receiving our emails, but it has been shown that the word “Low” is much more effective. Also, I saw that the word “remove” in some cases trigger spam filters, something a little weird and does not make much sense to me.
4 .- Never begin your post saying “Dear XXXXX.” This is already in itself sounds like a scam to me and personally is my total disgust. “Dear … why? However it is good to call your subscriber by name when possible. I get emails from some people who truly are masters at this, even get to use my name in the subject line, which gives me a feeling that this post is specifically for me, although it is clear that it is not.
5 .- Never use the “click here.” If you are sending an invitation to an online event, like a tele seminar and want people to register on, use the “Register” or “You are welcome to register here.” It may sound strange or obscure, but believe me, it works much better this way.
6 .- Never do more than 60-70 lines of characters. It may seem that would be a very short lines, but trust me, is more effective. Get a higher percentage of emails read and a better response to your “call to action.” The reason is simply that the human eye processes information better in small groups of words on a page, especially on a computer screen.
7 .- Do not use too many hyperlinks in your inbox. You can and should repeat your link twice, but do not use more than one unique link in your email. Each of these emails you send should be aimed at sending relevant information to your readers and a call to action.
These are my 7 basic mistakes that you should not make when you use the Email Marketing. Simple but very effective. Would you add any more to this list?
How can we avoid messages that lead to no action, are “messages that promote fear? “Never use”, “Never do”, “Never begin” How different could be “Here are some of my experiences that I did not get good results”.
The fun, and that’s the point in making a blog. Although there may be boring parts, but that is only happening in your mind, and it is in your mind where everything is resolved.
If you think you have a goal in the first month in which you learn to kick a ball you’re wrong, I mean a goal that really held not only you but thousands of people paying to see you. It is quite clear. With a blog as it happens, those who manage to win easily and quickly just who dominate the ball, I mean the blog, and content distribution.
But How fast can you be to make money online with a blog for a newbie?
I see that most honest advice I could say they do not make money fast and easy, but if we see how easily make money blogging as EsLaModa, Microserfs, etc., We can not deny that there is a condition in which it is easy.
You can reach has to be this type of person for whom it is easy, has to have a blog that is easy and fast money. Who you going to prevent? Reach this condition has its difficulties, but it is much easier to achieve savings for a household with an ordinary job.

Yes. There are many topics that interest you and are explained in other blogs, so you can take them, change the title a bit, add a couple of lines as the final presentation and give the author credit and your blog starts to take shape. It is important to have experience with a blog, and I think this is the best way, then we will find it easier to express your experiences and opinions and the contents of your blog can be themselves.
To better carry your own blog, something that has passion. Search google those topics you love, you care more about, what else you copy and paste fun and always giving due credit, then have others do the same for you. Many say “get your talent” and I look to find our talent is only possible in practice, going to kick the ball in the same field where they were playing a championship football.

I do so, for example this post, I wrote of pure experience doing a blog. Make money with a blog is a result of the process of doing, not thinking, planning, information or take a course.
