AskScottLindstrom.com - "Helping Internet and Network Marketers build a business while having a life."

  A blog is a central hub for your business if you want to be here for the long haul build credibility a way to show your skills then this is critical... I want to share with you the blog basics , this is so important to get the leads and sales.

I have not seen any top earners who are online and don't have a blog...

Why blogging? Think when you go to Facebook when you go to look and see whats going on? You will see blog posts. Do you know one of the main things people come to FB is to socialize and consume content!

With a blog there are two types - self hosted blog or a free blog through word press



Put your name on the blog ( brands yourself ) look at my blog AskScottLindstrom.com I am branding me. Its your logo your face there is a form for a way to generate leads and there is a training videos... Content ... banners to generate leads

The First this is YOU... Your Brand So this has to do with all about you YOURNAME.com this is vital I see marketers make the mistake of branding their company or product... why?? Your company can go out of business your product could be dropped... The only constant is you...your logo, your own logo. When you come to the Blog you get a instant feeling of trust.

The second this is keeping it clean... It should not look like a garage sale and should be very easy to maneuver in place. Its set up in a very clean way. Your Story tab - very important that people know you ( know like and trust you )If you have got a lot of stuff on the sidebar with stuff... banners and videos and  one of the things you want is not to confuse the prospect...

The third is the about you page. The about you page is your story people want to know who you are and what your about what are your goals with this business? People look at you to see you and who you are... trust me My blog the page the gets the most views is my about me.

The form on the left (sidebar) is a way to capture name and email. You can have it on the right as will as long as you have a way to get email and name.

Remember

The ultimate goal here is to generate leads from it and it lets you connect with other people...

How easy is it to setup a blog there are a couple of things you can do is go to a site called Wordpress.com the only pro is you can have it up fast the cons is you are limited functionality... If wordpress does not like your content they can delete your blog... You want to own your business assets and own what is rightfully yours!

Dont let you being cheap cost you a fortune in the future...

You want a self hosted as your own blog because you need to control your own business...

The other way is worpress.org and get the software to self host your own blog... Wordpress provides the software and install on your own server... ( Host Gator ) or ( Blue Host ) I recommend Blue Host and you can get a free domain name... and set it up...

You want to turn your blog into a lead gen (generation )  machine...

Your blog is the center of your universe

You need to have a system like create the capture pages and the other money maker is your Youtube Channel. You get all these social media platforms and you point them back to your blog
and the Blog when people click on things you make money...
