Blog Marketing Tips
May 24, 2007
Blog marketing is a rich, wide-open world that offers more opportunity to drive targeted traffic than any other format for online publishing. With a blog you can take advantage of traffic sources unavailable to people who still try to market their sites with no blog presence.
Therefore, you can out compete those in your niche who are far behind the times. Web 2.0 style sites offer myriad opportunities to market your blog from Digg-type sites where you post about your latest content, to blog-only communities such as MyBlogLog, SpicyPage, and Technorati.
I outline several hundred methods for marketing your blog in the Authority Black Book. But I have also found some other places that you should check out in a week or two when you are done reading the Black Book. (There’s more than enough in there to keep you busy for months!)

Hello Jack,
Thanks again for the Black Book. I’m just leaving an update since I received my copy in March.
I’m quite happy and proud to share that in one month my visitors jumped from 390 in April to 1121 in May. My stats also reveal that 71% of my traffic came from Search Engines (Organic) results. Google represents 64% of that figure. Most of these were absolutely new visitors from which I have also gotten 30 new subscribers. [Now need to work on increasing my subscribers!]
The Wordpress stats (from the WP plugin) are a little less than Google’s because I started using it around the middle of May.
I’m sharing this to encourage others who might not have done anything with the Black Book to get started and just apply one thing at a time.
Most importantly enjoy the new discoveries and your Blog improvements and “Happy Blogging”! And getting hooked on Google Analytics and Wordpress Stats doesn’t hurt either. Soon I’ll take on MyBlogLog…
Thanks for the best tips ever Jack!
