I feel there are so many angles from which I could make a review of Andrew Hansen’s blogging software Firepow.

I thought I might focus here on one particular element of the program which I consider to be particularly intregal to the success of a blogger, namely, the ability to drive traffic to their blog. If you have ever had your own website or blog for making money, you understand that it isn’t just a sort of “if you build it they will come” scenario. Even a great blog doesn’t guarantee traffic and a major part of a bloggers focus has to be spreading the word about their blog in a variety of ways in order to continually increase traffic and profits.

In may case, however, I am more worried about how the program makes bringing in more money and traffic for users an easier process. Anyway, that said – I thought I’d make a brief mention of some such features of the program in order to open your eyes to the ways this program might be as much a benefit to you as I predict it will be for me.

When you start a new blog, you want enough search engine spider juice to your site  to have it able to rank well for long tail uncompetitive keywords, purely by on page optimization, within a few days of being created.

For example, as soon as your site is created, you can click a button to have your RSS feed submitted to a bunch of RSS directories. You will receive invaluable back links, along with some immediate, excellent spider activity. Not to mention the ping from your post.
