How To Build a Personal Blogging Network
Not long ago I figured that blogging is an effective way to promote websites, wordpress based blogs are obvious and easy choice for me, so far we all agree that WordPress is ideal for almost all kinds of blogging needs, people even use it as CMS, with the fact that its licensed under GPL make the WordPress the most famous and versatile blogging software of all time.
Then I found out that I probably should build blogs myself, subsequently I can use my own blogs to promote my other websites, of course this is not a new idea, all kinds of blog networks are out there for the exact purpose, the thing is that I don’t control those blogs, in addition there is no way I can post to them, probably I will have to pay quite dearly to have my sites promoted.
If you have tried to maintain a few different blogs you will know its not easy, if you’re not using your blogs as spamming device, to write real stuff for your blogs will be time consuming, its never easy to build successful blogs. Some blogs are quite interesting, such as this one, Winch Straps and Winch Bars, it has a nice name, and it has a lot of interesting posts, without a clear theme, you’ll find all kinds of different posts there. Here is another one, Flatbed Tie Down Equipment, this blog is themed, all posts are following the same theme, quite a few keywords rank well for this site. I can show you a lot more sites, but I believe you get the idea. Last but not least, some of your blogs should not be very serious ones, do some casual postings randomly, just like this blog, Quality Tie Down, your blogging network looks more natural with these casual blogs.
After you successfully build a few blogs, add more blogs when you can, then use the established blogs to promote the new ones, this way you get your little blog network rolling. This is just an idea, to build a successful network will be much more complicated, follow the white hat tricks and ethic codes of online conduct you will be fine.
