Are blogs still working
The blogging world will change this year and certainly next as ChatGPT and other AI writers lift average writers up to a better standard.
Blogs are all about answering questions or solving problems so the better you fit them into a search profile the greater your results.
Keywords, Authority, user intent, and content length are all Google changes that have impacted results so you must get them right.
Furthermore, good blogging results can increase your website traffic by up to 50%
The use of Keywords still matters
In the next section we shall talk about user intent, a Google feature that has taken over from Keywords with certain restraints. Bing still uses exact match Keywords so they have not gone out the back door quite yet.
Keywords, or what people search for either by voice or the internet are questions being asked that need an answer. They come with both volume and competition so you need to balance these two carefully. Too much competition and you will never get a front spot but too little traffic is the same problem. I use a Keyword tool at Jaaxy.com to give me a guide and also use a Google search. A recent post covers this in-depth
Google and User Intent
First of all, Google wants to know what the call is about.
Is it to seek directions to somewhere
Or perhaps make a booking of some kind
To buy something
Find an answer to a general question
Or to shop local
Make sure you know what your blog is doing.
These are all very different needs so the answer you provide must be very clear on what you supply.
Search terms are more important than ever.
Affiliate marketing is still the best option
There are a few rules with affiliate marketing. First of all, choose the ones that people want so that you will get some action on a post and deliver results.
However, do not overpopulate any page with links, nothing turns readers away quicker than having to navigate links all over the page.
Finally don't be shy about changing your affiliate associations if they are not working. They need to build on a monthly basis to generate the flow of traffic and income you need.
5 reasons why blogs are still relevant in 2023 and a database is important
Build a database
You may say “Yes I know I have to collect leads along the way” However this has gotten more important than ever. With a good lead base, you can adopt email marketing, newsletters and SMS to multiply your income. Blogs are an ideal location to find interested buyers that you can target for months ahead. This will turn interested spectators into happy customers that will come back for purchase after purchase.
The value is in the list.
Build it and they will come.
Build your website around purchase completion
Blogs are not meant to be a selling mechanism. They are there to answer questions and provide solutions and move buyers to a platform with a checkout. Your Webpage.
You can improve website traffic by up to 60% with active blogs doing what they do best. Taking interested readers on a journey to a buying frenzy.
By the time they reach your website they are home and hosed, all full of new information and itching to make a commitment.
When marketing is done properly
Michal Cheney markets a system that provides a product, a squeeze page, some customers and a constant flow of email addresses.
This is really a passive income operation that is all set up for you and does all the work that you don't want to be bothered with.
Interestingly the whole point is to get email addresses and then have a marketing channel that sends emails every day for a month and a half.
If they haven't bought by then at least they will be brain-dead.
Like me, you can get into this unique system and enjoy the income flow while you do your own work.
It is the best side hustle that you can have because they do all the heavy lifting for you and guarantee
to make you money, in fact, the target is a glorious $10,000 a month income which would please any small operator.
It does not stop there it builds to the next levels but only when you are comfortable and want to take those next steps
If you have a blog and send customers to this you will blow them away with excitement and line your pockets with good currency.
The Millionaire does it for you.
