Wordpress Blog Plugins Revamp

I have spent today revamping my blogs again with a few different plugins.

The first was the Buy Me a Beer plugin which you can find at the end of each post.

You can get that from the link below:
Wordpress Buy Me a Beer Plugin

Another was a ‘Top Commentator’ plugin which i hope to raise the amount of comments on my blog. I find these are quite low at the minute. So, lets see if this is enough incentive to get visitors to post their comments. Those with the most comments get their link on the main page of this blog. You can see that on the right hand sidebar of the main page.

Get the Top Commentators tool below:

I have also installed a Google sitemap function which should make it easier for the Big G to find my posts. The link for that plugin is here.

And one more - visitors can now rate each of my blog posts - as you can see at the bottom of this article. That plugin can be downloaded from the link below:
Wordpress Ratings Plugin

You will also notice a MyBlogLog box at the bottom of my sidebar. This is a great way to get some traffic coming to your blog. You can an account for free at the link below:
MyBlogLog

All these plugins are working well and should save you an hour or two of searching. I am always looking for ways to increase my blog traffic and improve visitor experience. These plugins have helped me get there.

If I find any more I’ll make sure to post them here.

Don’t forget to post your comments

How Can I Blog for Money?

Anyone can earn money online blogging - I am absolutely stunned that more are not doing so.

Either, they are not convinced that it will work in which case they are showing contempt prior to investigation OR would be internet marketers have an idea - given the amount of people blogging - that it may work and just don’t want to put the work in to do it.

What work is involved Well, if you can spend a few minutes everyday, writing a topical article - that is on the theme of your blog content - then you can make money from blogging.

I don’t know about other blog platforms but the one I use - Wordpress - from my experience is an all ine one marketing tool. I have installed some special Wordpress plugins that optimize my blog, which are free to download. Other than these plugins - Wordpress does the job. You can get my plugin package as a bonus by buying my BAB marketing report below:
Increase Your Blog Traffic by 1000s of Monthly Visitors.

If you blog in a niche market then you are going to find that you get greater results that if you are competing in a busy market with loads of competition.

I made a post yesterday for an obsure keyword phrase and today the post made page one of Google. Yes, blogging IS that powerful.

To create a powerful blog you need to add unique content on a regular basis. You can also add articles from other authors taken from article databases, like GoArticles, but these articles are not going to hold nearly as much weight with the major search engines as an article written by yourself.

Once you beging to add content, at least 3 times per week, you will start to see traffic to your blog. This NEVER fails. There are billions of search terms being accessed on Google daily. You cannot fail to get top rankings for these search terms by writing unique content.

There are OTHER, more powerful ways to multiply the traffic you will get exponentionally. You can get the details on that at the link below:

Once you start to see traffic coming to your blog then it is time to add some income streams. I could write an entire book on ways to create an income from your blog. Today I am going to list a few of the most common ways.

One way to make money from blogs is to get a Google Adsense account and add Google ads to your site. Google will then pay you each time someone clicks through on the ads from your site.

Another option is to join an affiliate program of a product or service related to your blog. So, for instance, if your blog was related to a breed of cat then you could join a pet store affiliate program and they will give you a % of every sale which originated on your blog.

Most affiliate programs also supply the banners, and other ad creative to add to your blog pages.

Amazon also run an affiliate program which allows you to add topical book offers to your blog.

Once you blog gets established you can also sell links and other ad space for a monthly or one off fee. There is also a new service called Reviewme which allows others to post on your blog for a set fee. Obviously, the more popular your blog is, the more you will get per post. I noticed that some bloggers are getting as much as $700 per post that they allow advertisers to make on their blogs. Now bad!

The options are numerous BUT the first thing you must do is take action. Without a blog you cannot make a cent. Without content, you are unlikely to make anything either.

Social Bookmarking as an Internet Marketing Tool

Social bookmarking is a magic way to grab some quick exposure for your site. It was only a matter of time before the majority of the internet marketing world caught on to this fact.

Sites like Myspace, Squidoo and Digg are now legitimate targets for those looking to drive some instant and long-term traffic to their sites and blogs.

Using social bookmarking to increase web traffic is a simple process. It is as straight-forward as signing up for multiple social networking accounts, with different companies, then posting your link to each account. This is especially powerful with blogs as you can let the bookmark community know each time you make a blog post.

Some people signup for accounts many times with the same company. This is a sure way to lose your account, unless of course you are posting quality content to each account, which is usually NOT the case.

The idea behind social bookmarking is to have an online place where you can store all your favorite links and also share them with others. So, quality is key! You do not want to be sharing crap or spam dressed up as content. If you give value to the SB sites then you will be rewarded with traffic.

There are usually functions on each bookmark site to allow it’s members to grade your content - pushing the most popular into more prominent positions within the network - and higher search positions. Obviously then, it pays to provide something that people are going to like.

I try to write informative articles on this blog so I see these as perfect content for each of the social bookmark sites that I am a member of.

Social Bookmark Tools

After each blog post I can submit my link to my bookmark accounts manually with online tools like Onlywire. If you have been reading my posts for a while you will know that I always go for the easier option. That usually means some sort of automated process - saving me a lot of time to pursue other strategies.

The only Social bookmarking tool I use is Auto Social Poster. This automates the entire process of bookmarking with each blog post I make. Click here to check out this script now. The automatic social bookmark software can be used with Wordpress blogs only. So if you use an alternative bloggin platform you may be stuck with manually submitting your posts using Onlywire.

Click Here to discover my explosive secret on how I put all this process together to drive 1000s of visitors to my blogs on a daily basis. You are losing money and a lot of traffic if you don’t check out this special report.

How to Increase Your Blog Traffic?

Publicizing your blog is of utmost importance - if it is ever going to be seen online at all.

Great, you have started your blog and have made efforts to add some amazing content that you think the whole Internet world should be reading. If it is never seen though, then your time has been wasted.

The magic thing about blogs - I can only comment on the Wordpress blog platform because that is what I use most - is that each time you make a post and hit the ‘publish’ button, your blog is automatically pinged across around 50 ping websites.

So, even if you do nothing other than make regular posts, eventually your blog is going to be picked up by Google and the other search engines. If the content is keyword targeted then you will start to see some traffic.

Like everything else though, there are BETTER and more effective ways to do things - including getting more web traffic to your blog.

Like all websites including blogs, the more quality incoming links you have coming to your blog the better your search engine ranking is going to be. That’s a fact! The easiest and most effective way I know to get a high number of good quality links coming to my blogs is through article marketing.

So if you are adept at writing articles or are willing to pay for someone to write them for you then get started immediately. The idea is to write an informative article related to your niche market and submit it to multiple article databases. The end of the article will contain your ‘author box’ which will contain a link or two back to your sites.

Instead of submitting to these databases manually which would takes me hours if not days I prefer to use an article submission service, which you can find out more about below:
Best Article Submission Service

This is a great way to get instant and long-term traffic to your blog.

One method I use has been sending 1000s of targeted visitors to my blogs over the past few months. This method also enables me to achieve top google rankings for many of the keyword phrases I choose to target. You can find more about my blog marketing method at the link below:
Blog Marketing Method

The above blogging strategy can be used on any blog platform, including Wordpress, Blogger, etc etc

Getting traffic to your blog will also depend on how well optimized your blog actually is. At the page above I have included a bonus which include all the best wordpress plugins PLUS detailed instructions - including screenshots - on how to install and use them.

The most important thing to remember when you want to increase the amount of visitors to your weblog is to be consistent in the content that you add. I would suggest to add new content to your blog at least 3 times per week - daily if possible.

I have also found it most rewarding to add UNIQUE content. It is possible to find articles on any topic from sites like Ezinearticles.com, which you can add to your blog.

Although this may be fine to do this occasionally - when your creative juices have dried up and you cannot create your own - I would caution against adding more than a few articles. It is my experience that these articles are added to many sites throughout the web and if Google find your blog is full of ‘duplicate content’ then your blog may be penalized - in terms of it’s overall search engine positioning.
