This article is superbly useful as I have just started my blog 2months ago. I have been trying to switch it into a business but have been unsuccessful.

Do you have any suggestions for a blog business which is focusing on bringing up children? I am hoping to write on my children’s growth and at the same time give advice on bringing up children. How to turn that into a business?

Writing a blog is never too different from publishing a magazine. You just need to be sure that you are providing quality content and presenting them in a manner that is Search Engine friendly. Now while posting an article on your blog, the single most important thing is to see that you are giving it the right title.

This is a very good and useful article for me. Having had various business blogs started and then fizzle out over a short period I realize that I am approaching it wrong. This post will certainly help in future. Thanks.

This is such a useful but daunting list! It seems to suggest that a modern business person needs to be a sort of jack-of-all-trades: a compelling writer, a graphic designer, a planner, an editor, and a PR person.
But what if you’re lacking in these areas? Would you suggest outsourcing some of the work? What areas—if any—are most useful to spend money on in terms of launching a business blog? The artistic/attention-getting work, or the promoting? And how exactly do you “market [your blog] religiously”? I’ve heard of ‘word of mouth’ publicity and online promoting sources such as TravelHQR.com. Do you have other suggestions?

Sorry for bombarding you with questions.

For me there are two main types of business blog – each with different purposes.

The one that gets written about (by far) the most is the revenue earning blog. These blogs survive on traffic and clicks – earning money either from ads, affilliate revenues, or products they sell themselves.

The other type that gets almost ignored in most write-ups is the blog that exists to give credibility to a business. It’s uses mainly by people who sell their services (consultants for example). Teh blog is not selling anything in its own right, but the posts on the blog demonstrate that the writer is an expert in his field – and hence increase the chances that they will be hired to perform their services in that field.
