How to Use Your Blog to Promote Your Services



Monetizing your blog the right way doesn't always mean that you should be running ads on it; selling your own services on your blog is also a good way to make money. In this article we are going to look at the ways you can properly promote your own services in your blogs so that your readers will actually hire you.


Consider case studies as a great way to showcase your talents and experience with the readers of your blog. Most bloggers will never do this but it is one of the most effective ways you can use to highlight the services you have to offer. There are two attractive options available to you: you can ask a satisfied client for permission to use him or her as a case study or offer your services free of charge to someone else in exchange for being used as a case study. Once this study is published, people will be lining up to do business with you. Many potential clients view the case study as complete and total proof of the services you offer. The end result is that clients will trust you to provide the services they need better after they've seen the case study. If you are feeling like there is no end to what can be learned in internet marketing, then that is partially true. If you are wondering about the possibilities available using mobile media million in your web business, then you should be excited because there are quite a few. Most of the time, you will have already heard at least something about the method under discussion, but you know there is more to the story.

New online marketers can sometimes get lost in the process of discovery and spend a bit too much time buried in books.

Yes, if this applies to you, then you just have to make the decision that you will put the books down and then make a plan and execute it.

It is fine to read an ebook and then work to execute whatever the ebook was about, and in fact make it a habit to never read two in a row without taking some kind of meaningful action.


Don't defeat your purposes of promoting yourself by allowing advertisements that promote others on your blog. Don't invite potential customers to take their business somewhere else by including AdSense ads on your blog. Try placing your own advertisements in those primo ad spots on your page instead and watch the business roll on in. These ads can be placed in the side bar on your blog, below your posts, and just above comments as well.


It's important to remember that not all of your readers are looking to buy what you're selling but if you keep your content geared towards them as well they may know people who are and you're the first person who will come to mind for them. In fact, most blog readers never do buy anything but that doesn't mean they aren't valuable.


But every reader is valuable whether he or she is buying something from you or not. These readers help you raise your profile in the industry and some of them could be bloggers that link back to you and send you additional traffic. The more people your audience reaches out to, the more people your audience will reach.


It's more important to make sure there is a demand, among your readers, for the service you offer than to just offer any old service on your blog. It's only possible to leverage your blog in order to promote your own services when you're providing exceptional content to your audience. Your posts need to promote what your selling and your content needs to be educational, informative, entertaining, and relevant to your audience. What's holding you up? Nothing good is going to happen until you take action.
