5 Reasons Why Blogging is the
New Online Marketing Tool
By Adriane Jolly on September 8th, 2013
Blogging started in late 90s. In the past, blogging was a way
to comment on existing webpage–an opportunity for visitors
and readers–the audience, to react or give an opinion on that
webpage. What started as a one-sentence commentary on a
webpage has evolved into pages of personal opinions on just
about anything and everything under the sun. As blogging
evolves, marketing has tapped into the blog’s potential.
Here are 5 reasons why you should
use blogging for Online Marketing:
1. Blogging is simple. The simplest way to get your
information on the internet. You just need to know how to
read and type, or at least click a mouse. It’s like having a virtual
piece of paper and you just write your ideas, experiences, new
products, and hope that the truth behind your articles comes
out and entice your reader to also try your product. If you own
a computer and an Internet connection (who doesn’t?) then
you can blog and market to your audience.
2. Blogging is authentic. Today advertising saturate our lives,
we question the credibility of promoters’ claims. In relation
to blogging, real people share their real-life experiences,
untouched by paid advertising. Reading product review blog
posts is like talking to people about their first-hand experience.
You definitely want to purchase a tried and tested product.
3. Blogging is free. Because blogging is yet to be proven as
a mainstream online advertising media, most sites see it as
something to augment current marketing tools and thus offer
it for free. Any opportunity for free online marketing is
definitely a plus, especially for business start ups. Needless to
say, monetized blog pages can generate more income for your
growing business.
4. Blogging builds credibility. As you get more and more into
writing your experiences on a particular product or industry,
your audience or readers come to realize that they can trust
and depend on your posts for their information needs. That is

how you become an become an expert in that area. As a result,
more readers visit your blog or website and more bloggers
link to your blogs (backlinks are always a good thing). As
companies and professional organizations notice the growth of
your readership base, they may soon get in touch with you for
advertising on your blog page, or make you an affiliate, which
pays for every referral generated from your blog site.
5. Blogging builds your market. Unless you are a Hollywood
star, chances are, only your Mom reads your posts. Mom has
a lot of friends, so she lets her friends know how interesting
your blog site is. But you need not depend on Mom to increase
your readership base. Look into the following ways to build
your market through blogging:
• Using your e-mail. Today, blogging is overcoming the
e-mail’s popularity in quickly and effectively reaching
and expanding a market. In this age of speed and quick
access, logging in and downloading e-mail is simply
taking longer than clicking into a blog site. Let them
explore your site by using a short e-mail message as
teaser to your blog site. If your e-mail is on an entirely
different subject, use your e-mail signature to give a link
to the site.
• Using subscription. An easy way to get your readers
e-mail is to give them an opportunity to subscribe to
your blogsite. Keep some exclusive information for your
subscribers to entice readers to subscribe and give their
e-mail address. Just be responsible in using their e-mail
address, as the last thing you want is a comment on your
blog that you are a spammer.
• Understanding your audience. Conduct a simple
survey for your readers to understand their profile and
advertising preferences. Ask consumers to give you
feedback on a post, an ad link, or a trial that you
shared. In this way, it is like interviewing your readers
without the commitment and intrusion of a face-to-face
interview.
• Joining a blog network. A network of blogs maybe
a collection of blog sites that share the same
industry, interest, readership base, payment mode, etc.
Consumers find credibility and convenience in clicking
one link to several real bloggers about a single subject.
Clearly, more bloggers are better than one.
• Using RSS. RSS is the fastest growing technology on the
Internet today. As such, having RSS feeds to your blog
is definitely another means of generating awareness for
your readership base. Having a variety of feeds can add
interest to your blog site.
Give your business a boost by using
blogging as an Online marketing tool.

How to use Attraction
Marketing to Attract Ideal
Customers to Your Business

Attraction Marketing: How to
Attract Ideal Customers to Your
Business
Attraction marketing is simply the act of making your target
audience notice you, and then become interested in what you
have to offer. The idea is to offer valuable information that will
make potential buyers go like “wow” I need to get closer to this
person (you) to find out more about their products or services.
And in the process you’ll convert them into buyers.
It’s as simple as that. But mind you, there’s more to this
marketing technique than what you just read. It involves
taking some specific steps, and that is what you’ll learn in this
article.
Identify Your Prospects
Recognizing your potential customers can be the easiest way
to avoid marketing drudgery. The mistake most network
marketing newbies make is that they want to sell to the general
public. This is one of the leading causes of frustration in
network marketing. By the time you realize that not everybody
is ideal for your offer, you might have gone through a lot of
rejections. This is where attraction marketing comes in.
To attract ideal customers, it’s crucial that you identify them
first, and find out what their problems are. This will help you
tailor your communication and marketing strategy to their
needs, and allow you to build rapport with them. It will also
make prospects feel that you understand their desires, and
they’ll see you as the right solution to their problem.
Visit online forums for your niche, and pay attention to what
people are discussing. Take the time to explore the categories

that you deem relevant to your offers, and you’ll be able to
learn about the problems your potential clients are facing.
Another helpful approach for implementingattraction
marketing is to visit social media outlets such as Facebook
and Twitter. Search for your target audience with appropriate
keywords that describes your offer. You’d be surprised about
the number of potential customers on these platforms. Once
you get them, take the time to join their groups, and take
active part in any discussion that’s taking place within various
groups.
Don’t be tempted to mention your offers in the process of
discussion. Just provide valuable insights about any topic
that’s being discussed. The value of your insight will motivate
members of the group to find out more about you. And that’s
when they’ll begin to get attracted to you, and see you as an
expert in your niche.

Business

Marketing to Attract Ideal Customers to Your Business.
In part 1, we discussed how to identify your prospect. In this
post we are going to discuss providing value and piquing
interest.
Provide Value and Pique their Interest
When it comes to seeking information for their needs, people
are very wary about who to believe. This makes it difficult to
gain the attention and trust of people. But offering value first
by giving out free and helpful information will make potential
clients listen, and develop interest in you.
After you identify your target audience, and discover the places
that they frequent most, it’s essential that you make yourself
known to them. A smart way to do that is by offering valuable
information. Information that they can use to make their life
or business better. And in the process, you’ll subtly introduce
your product or service as a tool for making positive change in
their lives. And that is attraction marketing.
“Give everyone more in use value than you take from
him in cash value. Then you are adding to the life of
the world by every business transaction“. Wallace D.

Attraction marketing can help reduce the frustrations and
rejection that most newbie network marketers go through.
The idea is as simple as identifying your target audience,
discovering their problem, and offering help by providing
value for them first, and intelligently introducing your offer as
the right solution for them.
