Blogging effectively can and must be attained through many different avenues. If you want to get the word out about whatever the subject you choose, I feel you must first focus on that subject. Then you use avenues such as  pay-per-click search engines, traffic exchanges, submit to directories, use classified ads regularly, Syndication, and use Quikonnex channel if possible,. Blogging effectively can be a lot of work, but it will be very rewarding to see the final results when you get your blog on the first page of google with YOUR keywords. This is when you know your blogging system is working.

Focus

You must choose your subject and focus on it. Then you figure out as many keywords as possible(at least a hundred or so) and use them to write articles on your blog. Note: If you choose more than one subject, then create more than one blog and link them still keeping your focus on the first subject or you will be diluting you traffic by dividing your focus.

Using pay-per-click Search Engines

Using pay-per-click search engines is very useful in "getting the  word out" but can be very expensive using major search engines such as MSN, Google or even Yahoo. However, there are smaller search engines that charge only pennies per click. Frogsearch is one such engine that is highly effective when used properly. Don't even think about using this method if you are not prepared to write at least a hundred 250 character listings using your chosen 100 keywords. You must use your keyword to create a "catchy headline" and write your listing using your keyword to create and attracting your viewer to your page or blog. Using this method is very inexpensive as you only get charged for the actual click. As a first time user Joe Sansoucie(owner of Frogsearch) will match you from $20 to $100.00 on your deposit and believe me $20 goes a long way using this method.

Traffic Exchanges Bring Results

Traffic exchanges bring phenomenal results when used properly. To use a traffic exchange properly, never put a primary business page out there and always use splash or lead capture pages to get your traffic to your site/blog. It is very rare that someone will sign up for anything anywhere they have to pay for before "taking a test drive".  Many traffic exchanges have systems to help you generate traffic, leads and prospects. some of these very effective system are 10kHits4uNow with it's 10kHits4uSolutions package, MoneyWave, and Home-Income-Team(HIT). These are Free to sign up and have a lot to offer. Check them all out and use the ones you think fit your purpose best. All of these have great Downline Builders.

Submit to Directories

There is not much to say about submitting your blog/site to directories except that you should be prepared with listings such as you used with the pay-per-click search engines. You will need "catchy headlines and listings anywhere from 40 to 250 characters long. Be sure to use your most effective keywords in both. You can go  to Frogsearch and enter "blog directories" to find places to submit your listings. Some of the most effective ones I used will get you started:  Feedburner.RELMAX, Free Advertising Blog, Technorati, and linkscout. Some of these even have affiliate programs to increase your internet presence.

Classified Ads

Submitting to classified ads is very similar to submitting to directories except that when you go to Frogsearch to find sites you enter" submit classified ads".

Syndication

Syndication is put simply just linking RSS(Really Simple Syndication) readers from other blogs/sites so that their site links back to yours and vice versa to create more traffic for both parties.

Using Quikonnex to Advertise

Quikonnex is a non-email communication system which you can join FREE. However, Quikonnex has another feature referred to as a Quikonnex Channel which requires a rather inexpensive upgrade. You can create your Quikonnex Channel and submit an article(using your best keywords) of at two to three or more pages(a page is generally considered around 250 words) daily. This Channel concept is highly recognized by major search engines and draws traffic very effectively while increasing your search engine ranking. Once you sign up for Quikonnex free add my channel "Wayne Owens Internet Network Marketing" to your bookmarks on the sidebar and send me a QMTP message. My username is "wayne".
