How a Blog is Integral to Your Online Network Marketing Efforts…

Whether you are a beginning network marketer just formulating ways to drive traffic your way, or an established Internet marketer trying to increase your traffic flow, a blog should be at the very center of your marketing efforts.

If you’re anything like I was at first, you’re asking yourself, “What exactly is a blog?” I had a basic idea of what one was, but I couldn’t discern what it was that set a blog apart from a website. Now that I know, I’ve found that the answer was quite obvious all along. It is content.

A blog (the term originated from a combination of the words ‘web’ and ‘log’) uses content and dialogue to drive traffic to your website or lead capture page. It does not have to have flashy design or sophisticated layout, like a website does. Blogs are about words.

This means two really good things for your business. First, a blog is easier to set up than a website, because it is simpler. Secondly, the search engines love them.

Because the articles and dialogues on a blog usually center around a general topic, like network marketing, or health and wellness, they are by nature keyword rich. The result is that blogs have an automatic way of drawing the search engine’s attention, and thus, attracting prospects.

Another thing the search engines love about blogs is that they are perpetually changing. Where websites remain static for given periods of time, Blogs are frequently updated as new developments occur or new thoughts are posted.

That may sound like a lot of work, but it really doesn’t have to be. Do you send follow-up emails to your leads list, or encouraging messages to your sales team? Post them on your blog. Since you are using your content to attract your target market, the people who come to your blog are bound to find the information useful too. New findings and tips are great things to add to your blog too. They go back to that principle of giving a real value before you expect to get anything from your prospects.

These prospects are likely to desire more value you from you, and won’t hesitate to give you their information when the blog brings them to your lead capture page. Why? Because your authoritative content, your documented experience, and your freely given help have pre-sold them on you.

A blog works for your business even when you are in bed or away from your office. It can build your prospects list continuously while you are developing other important aspects of your business.

A blog can also be used to monetize your prospecting, particularly if you are involved in affiliate programs you can promote, such as the Renegade Network Marketer system. Renegade University can show you, click-by-click, how to set up your blog ‘from scratch’, with affiliate commissions available for referring others.

Wondering how you can begin to see tangible results in Internet Network marketing?

A good lead capture page is an online network marketer’s best friend.

All of your articles, press releases, you tube videos and MySpace pages should lead to this one page, which needs several components to be effective.

1. Attention Grabbing Headline. Use words that trigger emotions, such as pain or fear.
You need to paint a strong mental picture and do it quickly, before the prospect hits the back button.

2. Strong Offer. It’s just the way things are on the Internet. You will need to have a quality ‘freebie’ to offer your visitor, in exchange for their name and email address.
Pay attention to all of the freebies that receive in your email box. If they are quality, and related to your web site’s content, save some of them in a file for later use.

3. Video or audio. It’s been proven over and over again. Audio and video personalizes your page…which usually means higher opt-in rates. Set it to ‘auto play’ when the visitor arrives, in order to get maximum results.

4. Benefits, benefits. Use some bullet points to highlight the benefits of your product, opportunity or service. Tell just enough to arouse curiosity. Your actual sales page should have all of the details.

MLM lead capture pages are the oxygen of successful online network marketers. (otherwise known as Renegade Network Marketers on this blog)

You probably know by now that the web sites provided by your company do a terrible job of converting visitors to sales. Not only do these sites provide information overload to a visitor, there is usually no thought given to capturing the email contact information of visitors. So…visitor comes…visitor clicks around…visitor gets confused by the huge amount of information…visitor leaves…and you have forever LOST that visitor.

The simplest thing to implement, right now is a lead capture page. Don’t ever, ever send prospects or web site traffic to your company replicated page again! I have seen estimates claiming that nearly 50,000 people search for business opportunities on the internet each and every day. You want to carve out your piece of that huge number of seekers and direct them to your personalized, custom page.

So where do you start? Whether you are new to the industry or not, you will want to begin immediately to learn the skills of internet network marketing. Still my favorite foundational program (online university, actually) for this step is Renegade University. Here you will learn, one by one, all of the components of your online marketing arsenal:

articles
press releases
MySpace and Youtube
Social bookmarking
Blogging
Email marketing
Ezine advertising

Next, you need a good lead capture page. If you don’t know how to build your own capture page, that’s not a problem. You can easily hire someone to build one or two pages. (and you will be surprised that it no longer costs an arm and a leg)

Three resources for hiring freelancers:

Elance
Guru
Shelancers

Or, you can choose an online marketing system that wraps around your business opportunity (in place of the company replicated web site). Just make sure that the system you choose has the option for customizing a lead capture page, with audio, photos and video.

Easiest and turnkey…purchase a service that has assorted capture pages already done, waiting for you to choose your favorite and start sending leads.

My top recommendation for quality and value is EZ Lead Capture. Several plans to fit every budget. This provider not only provides MLM lead capture pages, they also have designs for many other online business needs.
