Cast a Blog Net and Capture Big Traffic

Capturing big traffic by casting a blog net is easier than you may think. Blogging has become a massive industry by itself. Almost every web presence (personal or business) is somehow utilizing a blog to build traffic, and connect with their customers and business partners.

In some of my training courses, I teach people how to build and maintain their own blog network in order to funnel massive amounts of traffic and capture leads. I use the visual analogy of a fisherman casting a net – in order to catch fish. My students quickly see that it is much easier to catch a lot fish with a net than it is with a single line. Of course, you have to have to be fishing in the right place.

With the current technologies that are available in the marketplace, it is easier than ever to build a strong net of content rich and popular blog sites. It will take some effort, but the rewards are undeniable.

Over the past few years, blogging has become incredibly popular as a means of driving traffic, dispensing information, and building relationships. Just about everyone who uses the internet connects with people through a blog – either as a visitor, or as a blog host. Perhaps you are interested in getting-in on the action of blogging, but you’re not sure how to get started. We’ll talk about that, and touch on how to start casting your blog net.

Fortunately, sites like Blogger.com have made it easy to set-up and make posts on a blog. You can start without any money out of pocket, and build sites without any major expertise at all. In this article, we will go over everything from signing up for a blog on Blogger.com to choosing a template (look) to finally making a first post.

What is Blogger.com?

Simply put, Blogger.com is a site that hosts blogs for free. This makes it even easier for you to have a blog because there is no need to set up a web site and host the blog yourself. All you have to do on Blogger.com, once you’ve signed up, is login to your blog, write a blog post and click submit. It‘s that simple.

What will my web address be on Blogger.com?

Your web address will be http://yourname.blogspot.com. One thing that people dislike about Blogger and other free blog sites is that they don’t have as great of a freedom in choosing a name. You are limited to choosing only what is available. So if you’re looking for http://makemoney.blogspot.com, you probably won’t be able to find that.

Signing up for a blog on Blogger

The first thing you’ll do is go to blogger.com. Next, you’ll scroll down the page and click on the button labeled “Create Your Blog Now”. You will then be taken to a page where you will enter an email
address (used to log into your blog), a password, and a word verification. You’ll also have to check “I Accept Terms of Service”. Click continue.

Next, you will be taken to a page where you will choose the blog
title, blog address, and another word verification (which is done to prevent auto-signups). When you type in your blog address, you can click a link that says “check availability”. This will tell you whether or not the desired name is available. If the first name you wish to have is not available, keep typing in different variations of the name until you find one that is available. After you have put in all the information, click “Continue”.

Choosing a Template

After you click “Continue”, you’ll be asked to choose a template. The template can be changed at any time after you sign-up for the blog, so you don’t have to choose an “official” template now. If you scroll down, you’ll see a variety of different templates. Click on the one that you like best and then click “Continue”.

Now you are ready to begin “posting to your blog. This is where you will have the opportunity to share. It will take some thought, and you’ll want to be focused in your approach. I will go into that in greater depth later, but for now you are pretty much ready to do. I’ll touch on the topic of posting.

Your First Blog Post

After you’ve chosen a template, you’ll see that your blog has
been created and that there is a button to “Start Posting”.
Click that button. You’ll be taken to a page that is similar to the posting page at a message board. There is a “Title” field, where you can put in the title of this particular blog posting. Then there is a
bigger field, which is the body of your post. Type all you want in this “Body” field, as there is no limit. Note that there are options above the field to bold, italicize, underline or spell check the text. There is also the option of changing the size and color of the text, plus the ability to add bullet points, numbered lists and even pictures. For now, you’ll just do a simple “Welcome” post. In the “Title” field, type “Welcome!” In the “Body” field, type your message. You could start with a simple introduction, talking about yourself and the purpose of the blog. When you’re done typing the message, click the “Publish” button.

Once you have made your first post, you’ll want to begin consistent sharing on your blog. Initially, I suggest posting every day to let the search engines and visitors know that you will be serious. After about a week, you may want to drop back to two or three times per week.

You have now started the process of building a traffic funnel, and have set-up the first line in your blog net. My courses have much greater detail, but now that you see how easy it is to setup one blog – you can easily set up multiple blogs and link them together. There is a strategy to it all, and ways that you can add content automatically – so you aren’t creating a burden for yourself in having to post content constantly. There is also some automated blogging software that you may want to use to SUPPLEMENT your posting. I recommend the software below:

You will begin to see traffic in no time, and depending on the topic and qualify of your content – you may see extreme traffic. If you set up multiple blogs, you can maximize your recruiting and income.

For example, multivitamin supplements were a growing trend during the 80s. Because of the rising health needs due to pollution and people spending more and more hours in the office, it created a need.

But that doesn’t mean that the trend is still growing. There are some companies which came up with supplements that do not require water for mixing or swallowing. It caters to those people who are always on the run.

Today, people are not just developing new products… they are engineering new product lines and creating new demands while diminishing existing ones. The question remains… does the demand for your product justify your efforts for promoting it?

When you join a company on the cutting-edge of a new marketing trend – most of the hard part of recruiting is done.
