Blogs To Watch

Remember to add them to Bloglines using the feed button in the address bar!

Getting Traffic

Overview

Now that we've done the research and chosen a niche or two, it's time to get down to work and start producing some content.

Training

You may need to login to the Thirty Day Challenge site to see the training or have it automatically download into iTunes.

Actions

Remember to watch the training videos and/or listen to the training podcasts first before diving in with these actions!

  1. Each day, continue to explore your Bloglines feeds and other sources for interesting facts and notes about your chosen topics.
  2. Each day, and for each chosen topic, use your notes to write 3 short pieces of content (articles). Remember to keep it light and include your Umbrella Phrase in:
    • the title/headline of the article
    • the first sentence of the article
  3. For each topic, find one affiliate product that you can use to test whether your market will actually click on recommended product links and buy anything.
  4. Choose a site to host your content.
  5. Post a couple of articles on your chosen site and include a link to your chosen affiliate site.
  6. Use Social Poster to bookmark your content page on a number of social bookmarking sites.
  7. Ask your team members to bookmark your content page (if they like it) 'when they get a chance' over the next few days. It is vitally important that no more than 5 or 6 team members do this and not all at the same time. It must be a natural process.
  8. Periodically, check Google to see how your content page is ranking for the quoted "Umbrella Phrase" you have targetted. Use the SEO tool to obtain the rank position.
  9. Add some more content to a different Web 2.0 site to start building your network and spreading your content. You don't want all your eggs in one basket. Look what happened with Tumblr (and Squidoo a few months earlier).
