With the popularity of twitter, Facebook and other Social Networking sites, I often get asked, “Is Blogging dead?’
And of course, the answer is always: “No”
BUT … it is experiencing what we all experience in today’s fast paced world … change.
The biggest change, and one that brings a unique opportunity to you, is the drop off of the “Amateur Blogger”. The guy who blogged about his dog, or the woman who blogged about her yoga class are all turning to sites like Twitter and Facebook.
And really, don’t we all want the people who mainly want to socialize, share links, and post pictures of their cat using social networks instead of blogging? Well, that’s exactly what’s happening.
And what does that mean to us?
Less clutter on the internet.
Lots more room in all Niches for interesting “full bodied” content.
Lots of OPPORTUNITY for those who REALLY know how to blog successfully.
Those of us with strong online businesses continue to blog, and smartly use social networking sites to promote our content while adding value in those venues. We’re actually finding it easier to attract lots of quality traffic in highly profitable niches.
Whether you’re trying to build an online business, market your stuff, or promote a cause, those who seek maximum influence know that creating valuable longer content on their blogs is the way to go.
Like many others, I’ve been quietly doing this behind the scenes for years, and it’s been very profitable.
But, it isn’t enough just to start blogging. You have to have a plan … a system that will build a strong business that can grow … and build itself of complete autopilot.
Whatever system you choose must be something that runs constantly, because, over time, the traffic from your blog posts gradually dies away, so you need to be constantly replacing that traffic with new traffic … and the thought of doing that all manually is enough to drive anyone up the wall.
Using an autopilot blogging system is a fast way to build a blog-based business that can attract huge amounts of niche traffic, quickly and easily.
