The &#13;<br \/>more you learn about blogging, the more there is to like.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, here are 6 mouth-watering reasons why every marketer &#13;<br \/>should be blogging:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>1- Fast Search Engine Spidering and Indexing of Your Site:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that Google owns the most popular blogging platform &#13;<br \/>on the planet? Blogger at http:\/\/www.blogger.com is used to &#13;<br \/>produce thousands of blogs. Even a complete internet newbie can &#13;<br \/>set up a blog in about 5 minutes at Blogger. And guess who can be &#13;<br \/>counted on to come by and quickly spider all those new blog posts &#13;<br \/>as they are written?&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Yahoo is also embracing blogs and feeds in a big way. Savvy &#13;<br \/>marketers know that adding their blogs and feeds to their MyYahoo &#13;<br \/>page can bring the Yahoo spider to their site almost immediately.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons that blogs get spidered so quickly is that &#13;<br \/>most of them produce a feed. Many blogs automatically &#8220;ping&#8221; (or &#13;<br \/>notify) some of the large sites that carry these feeds and make &#13;<br \/>them available for syndication. Search engines spider these sites &#13;<br \/>many times a day. Blogger, for instance, pings Weblogs every time &#13;<br \/>you make a post. You can also &#8220;ping&#8221; a free site called &#13;<br \/>Pingomatic (http:\/\/www.pingomatic.com) every time you add a new &#13;<br \/>blog post. Your ping will notify Yahoo and 11 other large feed &#13;<br \/>sites that you&#8217;ve added a post. If it only were so easy to get &#13;<br \/>Google to notice new pages on regular sites!&#13;<\/p>\n<p>If you have a new site that you are having trouble getting &#13;<br \/>indexed, adding a blog or RSS feed is one of the quickest ways to &#13;<br \/>get the spiders to come calling. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>2-Blogs can Build Your Backlinks Quickly:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve spent time trying to get reciprocal links to your site, &#13;<br \/>you know how frustrating, boring, and time-consuming it can be. &#13;<br \/>I&#8217;ve long considered reciprocal link building to be one of the &#13;<br \/>worst ways to develop link popularity. Many SEO experts consider &#13;<br \/>one-way links to be far more effective. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>A blog can build one-way links to your site fast. If you&#8217;ve just &#13;<br \/>started a blog, you should submit it to the large blog and feed &#13;<br \/>directories. Here is a list of the Top 55:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.masternewmedia.org\/rss\/top55\/&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve submitted your blog to these directories, you&#8217;ll find &#13;<br \/>your backlinks growing quickly. This past year, more webmasters &#13;<br \/>are using RSS feeds on their sites to keep their sites fresh and &#13;<br \/>spidered frequently. Software applications such as RSS Equalizer, &#13;<br \/>Express RSS, and CARP make this easy.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>After starting my first blog, I was amazed at how many different &#13;<br \/>sites carried my feed with a link back to my site! These links &#13;<br \/>can multiply exponentially over time. &#13;<\/p>\n<p>Now tell me something. Wouldn&#8217;t you rather be spending your time &#13;<br \/>adding content to your site than trying to get questionable &#13;<br \/>reciprocal links? Especially when it doesn&#8217;t take any extra time?&#13;<\/p>\n<p>3-A Frequently Updated Blog will Keep the Spiders Visiting Your &#13;<br \/>Site Often:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Most of us are aware that the search engines like sites that are &#13;<br \/>updated frequently. If you have your blog set up correctly, every &#13;<br \/>post will update several pages of your site. Then pinging Yahoo &#13;<br \/>and the blog and feed directories at Pingomatic can bring out the &#13;<br \/>spiders in just a few hours. This is a great way to get new pages &#13;<br \/>of your site indexed quickly and frequently.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>4-Your Site is Stickier and More Appealing to Visitors:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>A blog on your site is an easy way to keep your site updated on a &#13;<br \/>regular basis. The upside is that visitors will come by more &#13;<br \/>often. If they find your blog interesting and informative, they &#13;<br \/>may bookmark your site. That means you have a much greater chance &#13;<br \/>of making sales. And you have a ready-made audience for any new &#13;<br \/>products you launch.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>A blog can also add a human face to your website that potential &#13;<br \/>customers will trust and respond to. Most marketers know that &#13;<br \/>people buy from people they like and respect. A well-written blog &#13;<br \/>is a great way to build a relationship with your visitors.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>5-A Blog Is The Fastest And Easiest Way To Build A Brand-New &#13;<br \/>Website Without Training:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Even a 10 year old could set up a blog at Blogger.com and be &#13;<br \/>blogging almost immediately. No HTML knowledge is necessary. You &#13;<br \/>don&#8217;t need to know how to FTP. You don&#8217;t need to know how to link &#13;<br \/>the pages in your site together. All you have to do is type in &#13;<br \/>your post and click on the &#8220;publish&#8221; button. And yet you can &#13;<br \/>still set up an attractive, spiderable site in record time.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Blogs can be used for any type of site, not just for online ezine &#13;<br \/>delivery or a place to announce new products. Using a blog you &#13;<br \/>could quickly build a niche site. Just research the best keywords &#13;<br \/>for your niche. Then write articles around those keywords and &#13;<br \/>post them to your blog. Include your keywords in your title. You &#13;<br \/>now have an instant niche site that will be spidered quickly and &#13;<br \/>be easy to maintain.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>6-Keyword competition in RSS feed sites is much less than in the &#13;<br \/>SE&#8217;s:&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Google, Yahoo, and MSN each have many millions of webpages in &#13;<br \/>their indexes. It can be almost impossible to get top rankings &#13;<br \/>for competitive keywords if you don&#8217;t have a high PR site with &#13;<br \/>lots of backlinks.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a completely different story at the RSS feed sites. The &#13;<br \/>competition for many high-competition keywords is almost &#13;<br \/>nonexistent. Setting up a blog in some of these high-competition &#13;<br \/>niches is a good way to successfully compete.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Marketers spend a lot of time and money getting traffic to their &#13;<br \/>sites, creating backlinks, getting good SE rankings, and building &#13;<br \/>relationships with their customers. A blog can improve your &#13;<br \/>results in all those areas. There aren&#8217;t very many free marketing &#13;<br \/>techniques that can make that claim!&#13;<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n About the author:<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n &#13;<br \/>\n  For more tips and ideas on how to make money blogging, be sure to <br \/>visit my &#8220;Why Marketers Should Blog&#8221; weblog at (what else) <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.WhyMarketersShouldBlog.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"navigation\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.WhyMarketersShouldBlog.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"-2\">Circulated by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geekzonehosting.com\">GeekZoneHosting.Com &#8211; Register a domain name and get hosting for your own Adsense Website just like this one<\/a><\/font>&#13;<\/p>\n<hr size=\"-1\"\/><\/span><\/td>\n<p>&#13;\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p align=\"left\">\u00a0        <\/p>\n<p>&#13;\n      <\/td>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n    <\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<hr width=\"800\" noshade=\"noshade\"\/><a href=\"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/ADSENSEWEBSITES\">RETURN TO ADSENSE BUSINESS-IN-A-BOX MASTER ARTICLE INDEX<\/a><\/p>\n<hr width=\"800\" noshade=\"noshade\"\/>\n<div class=\"fb-share-button\" data-href=\"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/\" data-layout=\"button\" data-size=\"large\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fon-line-interactivity.com%2F&amp;src=sdkpreparse\" class=\"fb-xfbml-parse-ignore\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Share<\/a><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<div id=\"fb-root\"\/>&#13;<br \/>\n<script async=\"\" defer=\"defer\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&amp;version=v4.0&amp;appId=103650273035821&amp;autoLogAppEvents=1\"\/><!-- End of FACEBOOK SHARE BUTTON CODE --><span class=\"style6\"><br \/><span class=\"style2\">\u00a92019 - All Rights Reserved by <a href=\"http:\/\/HelpMeFindFreedom.Online\">HelpMeFindFreedom.Online<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.website.ws\/kvmlm2\/my.dhtml?sponsor=geekzonehostingcom&amp;bannercode=gif002&amp;language=english\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/images.website.ws\/images\/english\/banners\/kvmlm2\/468x60_02.gif\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n<\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; \u00a0 &#13; \u00a0&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Article Navigation &#13; Back To &#13; Main Page &#13; &#13; &#13; \u00a0 &#13; Click Here &#13; for more articles &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; The 6 Top Reasons Marketers Should Blog &#13; by: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6180","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-adsense-business-in-a-box"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6180","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6180"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6180\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6180"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6180"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/on-line-interactivity.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
