Syndicate Your Blog

JaneSawyer by JaneSawyer

Blog Marketing and Syndicating Your Blog

Blog syndicating is one of the most effective ways of blog marketing.

With blogging platforms becoming ever more powerful while remaining simple enough for anyone - even without technical knowledge - to use effectively, blogging has exploded. Everyone is a publisher. And everyone can find an audience interested in listening to what they have to say.

How to syndicate your blog?  What content can you syndicate?  Who will syndicate it from you?  Why?

On this lens, we will address all these issues and more.

If you find this useful, please tell a friend.  And leave your feedback on the Blog Marketing Guestbook below.

Blogs for Sale!

As 'out of the world' as it may seem, think about this idea - creating a blog from scratch, specifically with the aim of selling it after some time.

If you pick a good niche, load it with content, get links and traffic, even generate steady income, you could sell a blog for a good premium. There's a difference in your approach to building a blog with the express purpose of selling it versus planning to keep it for the long haul.

So make sure you know what your goal is before planning and building your blog.

Where Can Your Blog Content Get Syndicated?

When you post a new message on it, the content can automatically get:

- inserted into an email and mailed out to your opt-in list (the list management service to use for this is Aweber, and does this automatically)

- added to your RSS feed which is syndicated by multiple website owners

- 'fed' into your other static content-rich websites depending upon whether or not they contain pre-defined keyword phrases

By syndicating this content automatically in multiple ways, you get exposure far beyond the viewership of your own blog... and all syndicated content links back to the main blog homepage!

How Will Others Syndicate Your Blog Content?

The blog content syndication process is based on the XML feed that most blog software generates when you post to it. This feed can be converted back into HTML by programs like CARP and BlogBomb, making it possible to 'remotely' update websites with fresh content added to blogs.

When a user wishes to syndicate your content, he gets a snippet of code which is pasted into his website where it 'pulls' in fresh content from your blog - and updates it regularly. The news feeds which services like Google and Yahoo offer are examples of such content syndication.

If the content you create is unique, valuable, timely and of interest to many others, you might even be able to charge other websites for using it. This could be on a pay-per-use model, or a flat monthly fee.
