Blog Training - Free Time And Automate Your Marketing Efforts

Establishing your blog as an authority in your niche can be a challenging prospect. This is particularly so if you are just starting out. The more authority you have the more people like Google will admire you. Bear in mind that Google ranks the pages and posts in your blog and not really your overall blog.

This is big news. Because this means that every blog post or page you write should expand your blogs authority status. So make sure it does. How?

Listed below are a couple of methods you can use now and incorporate into your blog training.

The first is one of the easiest ways to commence building your authority. It is to build incoming links through commenting. If you apply a plugin called CommentLuv on your blog you will be able to leave comments on allied niche blogs that also have CommentLuv installed.

How do you find a blog with this plugin. A piece of cake. Go to Google search engine, and conduct a search utilizing your keyword and exact operators.

If I was searching for blogs in the 'Panic Attacks' niche I would explore for

panic attacks & "title="CommentLuv Enabled""

rather

"Enable CommentLuv" + panic attacks

You should be able to retrieve lots of results for blogs in the panic attacks niche that have CommentLuv installed. In theory you would make at least 10 comments per blog post or page you write. If you make this a habit you will soon start to establish your links and, hence, your authority status.

The second tactic that you could apply in your blog training and that will also save you hours and hours of blog promotion work is automating your social network notifications. Social networks give you an opportunity to broadcast your posts to the planet. Submitting your notifications one by one is not actually feasible in the long term. Attempt this and I assure you that sooner rather than later you will give up.

Anyway, here are your step-by-step instructions:

1. Get a no cost account at http://ping.fm
2. Add Social Networks utilizing Options provided (this is the time consuming bit)
3. Generate account on those networks that you are not a affiliate of yet, and attach them to the social network list for Posting
4. Install a new plugin PingPressFM using "Add New" option and activate it
5. Get API Key from ping.fm and append it to the Options of your plugin using Settings -> PingPressFM
6. Click on "Triggers" and set check for "Trigger Active" for each posting trigger you need to use.
7. Click "Update Options"

Bingo! That's all there is to it. Every moment you post or create a page on your blog the plugin will give out a notification to ping.fm utilizing the triggers you have enabled on your blog which, in turn, will make automated posts to each social network you have added to your list.

This automated system works a treat and, once set up, will grow your reputation without thinking about it.

Every blogger should search ways to automate the important functions of a blog without compromising on the caliber of the actual posts. Incorporating these simple tactics into your blog education will reap rewards in the long run and, best of all will allow you to concentrate on your content.
