One of the mistakes that many home business owners make is using a free blog at Blogger or Word Press which is owned by Google or Word Press. Word Press is a fantastic blogging platform because of all of the plug-ins and automation they make possible for you. By hosting it yourself you never risk having it canceled for any reason and you can promote any home business opportunity you want on it. 2. In your blog articles always target keyword phrases. This allows you to create traffic for your home business around the keyword list that you build. The key to making this work for your home business opportunity is learning basic search engine optimization. 3. Do more blog articles by writing short articles. Many people think that blog articles have to be long in order to be successful. In reality if you target one main point and keep your blog articles at 200 and 300 words you can create more of them. This allows you to target more keyword phrases and ultimately derive more traffic from them. 4. Your blog posts should always be social bookmarked. This serves two purposes. People can find and read your articles if they're distributed throughout the marketplace. This means getting them in social networking sites such as Twitter and Face Book and social directories such as Propeller, Digg, Diigo, etc. Also these are great search engine bait and can create search engine traffic from the directories themselves. 5. Add to your short blog articles for article marketing. Most article directories want articles of 400 words or more. You can take every short blog article and add to it to make it unique and longer. Then turn around and submit it to a handful of the top article directories including EzineArticles and Idea Marketers. Be sure and include a link back to your website in your resource box and you will get more traffic for your home business. This proven home business marketing strategy works every time if you do it consistently. ------------------------------ Eddie W Gillespie writes about Internet marketing strategies for your home business as well as other related topics.
