Hi folks,
I just got Michaels e-mail regarding the new RSS feed product and I have a quick tip that will get you started with a Blog and RSS feed.
This is so simple and so effective I think everyone should be doing it.
The best part about this strategy is that it is 100% free and can be done in 4 simple steps...
I call it “The Ultimate Backdoor Method of Getting Highly Targeted Search Engine Traffic”
Here’s what I did (in a nutshell)
Step 1 - I downloaded this easy to install FREE BLOG software http://www.wordpress.org
Step 2 - I installed it on my website. It took about 10 minutes with the instructions provided.
Step 3 - I published a few articles (some my own and a few of them from other people)
Step 4 - I registered my RSS Feed with a few search engines and BLOG directories.
Now, I kinda forgot about my RSS feed for a while and just focused on writting a couple of articles every week.
And then it happened…
Not even a month goes by and all of a sudden I’m getting a TON of traffic AND sales to my various products.
Guess where the traffic is originating from?
You guessed it! My RSS feed and Weblog (which was free to download and install)
This story is 100% factual and if I can do this with my internet marketing related products, I can’t wait to see how well it goes with some of the less competative niche products!
Better capitalize on this trend quickly!
I have published a few articles on some of the more advanced strategies of marketing with RSS and Blogs on my website.
Also, I'm sure the book Michael mentioned in his e-mail has a lot of *neat* tips. I haven't read it yet, but it appears to have the same kind of information I read in Joe Vitale & Laura Childs "Stampede Secret"
Here's the link in case you didn't get it:
I recommend getting your Blog going right away, even if you decide to wait on the book. I assure you once you get started with your blog, you will see just how easy, fun and profitable it can be and you will EAT UP all the information you can find!
I have published some more tips on some more "advanced" strategies on my site, but I recommend getting the basics down first. Just follow the 4 easy steps above. Should just take a few minutes.
Happy Blogging ;-)
Tim
P.S. When you get your blog up you will probably want to change the look and feel. You can do that by changing the CSS file. If you don't know anything about CSS files, no worries... here is a great site with some free templates:
