Critical Steps to Online Success--So I've got my Blog…What Now?

What about that Blog…pretty exciting, huh?

There you are live on the net for everyone to read. I must
admit I felt a twinge of embarrassment when I realized how
visible I could become.

As I said in an earlier article, make good use of your
blog. You control the publication here. You are the one who
approves the submissions. Turn your Blog posts into emails
to your list and into articles if there's enough meat on
them. Post your emails on your Blog.

Your next step is to begin to post all of your articles,
one by one, to your Blog. Don't worry about formatting or
fonts or anything like that for now. Just get the content
posted. Newsletter and Ezine editors will begin to pick up
your articles from your Blog and your Blog traffic will
grow, very slowly but steadily.

And put a hit counter on your blog-you'll want to be able
to measure the traffic.

Go to your Help menu, select the Help Center, scroll down
the page to Advanced Use and choose Add-ons. At the top of
that menu will be "Hit Counter and Statistics" which takes
you to a page of hit counters.

I use "Bravenet"-it's free and they provide a
comprehensive array of stats about you Blog visitors. Go to
their site and grab the code to attach to your blog. Just
copy it to the clipboard. Then go to your Blog and open the
Dashboard, select Layout and then "Add a Page Element".

Now Find the link for 'HTML/Javascript' and click on the
'Add to Blog' link to access the text field. Then just
paste the code into the content box, enter "Hit Counter" in
the title box and "Save Changes". The hit counter will now
show up at the top of your Blog page.

That's it…you're live with your very own Blog. Just keep
on posting…every day is best! Keep on Winning

Regards

Jim
