This is Christopher Stigson, a blogger who has spent hundreds of hours trying to figure out the blogging game. I think I’ve finnally cracked part of the code and I’m sharing this with you today. The point of this article is to run a test and at the same time share some knowledge about internet marketing blogs.

It’s no lie that blogs are a very profitable way of running an online business. You probably need to do a couple of things differently in order to fully have all the benefits that comes with owning a blog. Internet marketing strategies for promoting and using special tricks to increase search engine rankings is not unusual around here.

What I’ve found is that creating a traffic pulling blog is more than just about getting search engine rankings. You need more… See… Blogs are so easily syndicated using RSS and tools such as RSS submit to get your website spread like wildfire in just one go. This is no news… This isn’t any news either, but you want to “deep link” your blog posts and have strictly defined anchor texts.

If you are in the middle of starting an internet marketin related blog which sole purpose is to write about internet marketing you probably want to “sub-niche it”. This means you choose a specific topic within “internet marketing”. This can be affiliate marketing, article marketing, eBay marketing, Traffic generation and more.


Finding your niche within the niche is the key to success. When you have found your “internet marketing niche” it’s not hard to start finding products, keywords and articles to finally make money. Targeting “make money online”, “how to make money” or “marketing” isn’t your best bet here… Go to keyword research tools, spend some time and figure out what keywords you can use to rank #1 more easily.

Simple example could be “traffic generation”. That’s our “IM sub-niche”. Great. Let’s go do some keyword research before we get carried away. Let’s say we type in “traffic” and it spits out “increase search engine traffic” as a viable keyword. Then head over to Google and type it in. Now head over to Yahoo and use “link:http://www.yourcompetition.com” to see the backlink count for your competition. If it’s below 1,000, go for it! There’s our sub-niche-long-tail-keyword. Yippie, let’s get going!

Register a domain called “http://www.increase-search-engine-traffic.com” or something like that. If you want a short catchy domain name, go for that, but try having “traffic” in your domain name… seriously, this will help a lot.

Now you write relevant content about “increase search engine traffic” in your blog. Simple? Yes, but you also need about 10-20 keywords more to start writing articles just like this one. When you have done that, post them on various article directories online and see traffic, rankings and profits pouring in!
