OVBlogger: Blogging and SEO

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Had a call last night with Nancy Hults. She grilled me about blogging, and I told her tons of great stuff.

I love to do calls because I can interact with people. We don’t often get to do that. We sit in our offices (actually, mine is a corner of my bedroom, which is pretty big, but still… I digress.) and we type away or code away or video away or whatever. And NOBODY is there to connect with.

Anyway, I spilled my guts–again. If you enjoyed the call I did with Erik Stafford last month, this one may be even better. I encourage you to go and listen to the replay:

You won’t regret listening. If you’re interested in ways to make your blog better, in ways to make it profitable, and ways to make it search engine friendly, grab a pen and some paper and dial in.

And enjoy!

There’s a pretty cool offer at the end of the call, too. Worth $100 to you. So… check it out.

If you’re an affiliate marketer or if you have your own product to sell, teleseminars are great!  They help build your list and make you more money than if you just send plain emails.

Why?

Because they “showcase” the product, the product owner, or you. People tend to trust people they know, rather than just words on a page. Right? I mean, I do much better with sales of my product (Blogging4Boomers.com) when I do a teleseminar. People automatically see that I know my stuff, and they feel comfortable asking me questions that I can summon quick and easy answers for. And they get to know me better. I LOVE teleseminars.

You should, too.

They’re very easy to set up with a great tool called “InstantTeleseminar.Com.” I just tell the software when I want to have the teleseminar, add some customized options, and BOOM! It’s ready to go. The best feature is that people can listen on the Web as well as on the telephone, which saves big charges for people in Asia and Europe. Skype is pretty awesome, but some folks don’t like to tie up their phone. That’s cool with InstantTeleseminar

Anyway, if you want to get people interested in a product, there’s no better way to do it than by having a teleseminar. Well… except live on-stage, maybe. But in lieu of that, teleseminars are awesome.

Well… all good plans and such…

Tonight was to be my big call with Stephen Pierce… the one I’ve been looking forward to for months. But, fate intervened.

Something important came up.

The woman I work with in his office decided to have a baby. Well, the baby decided to be born, which is great! All my best goes out to her and her child.

However, the call tonight has to be postponed until another time.

Bummer.

But a big yay on the baby front!

I’ll keep you posted on the new date and time.

Wow! Had one of the best calls on blogging in the series last night. People who are hardcore bloggers know who he is, but new people and people who have only started learning about the blogosphere probably haven’t heard the name “Ted Demopolous,” though he’s a long-time Netizen and well-respected consultant. He’s also written a couple of books on blogging, which is how I came to contact and meet him.

Anyway…

Ted was my special guest last night on the Blogging4Boomers.com teleseminar series and he gave an incredible amount of information to my members. He talked about positioning, writing content, social interaction and a whole lot more.

One thing that I found most interesting, and what not many people who blog for business remember is that you shouldn’t be selling from your blog. The way Ted put it, “I don’t make money from my blog. I make money because of my blog.” The idea being that when you write great content, people see you as the expert and they follow you and buy your products. But your blog can also get you offers — for consulting, for joint venturing, and so on. People “know” you by the way you write.

Very cool. And very true.

If you want to get in on the replay of Ted’s call, just go to Blogging4Boomers.com and sign up for the series. There is a replay page, but only for list members. Ted also gave a pretty sweet bonus.

I’ll be putting the call up this weekend. Sign up now so you’ll be able to check it out.
