Blogging for Network Marketers step 3 – What to Say
In the first two steps of this series, I walked you through selecting your “virtual address.” In the last post we talked about the blogging infrastructure and I introduced you to both free and
paid options for your blog. Today I want to tackle the issue of content.
Content is critical to the success of your blog and its effectiveness in your marketing efforts. This is a place where you will need to utilize the Costanza principle of marketing. The
natural inclination is to make your blog a rehashing …
Blogging for Network Marketers Step 2 – Developing the Infrastructure

So you’ve chosen your new domain name; for the purpose of this teaching we’ll assume that you are going to use yourname.com as the domain. You now need to set up the structure that your readers will

So you’ve decided it is time to claim your piece of virtual real estate, from where you will coordinate all of your online marketing efforts. Now it is time to choose your location. In
cyberspace, your street address is your domain.

xyzrep.blogspot.com. There are basically two routes you should be taking with your domain:

Repeat yourself
Repetition…it is one of the single most critical elements in marketing.
Studies suggest that the average person must be exposed to a message no less than 7 times before they are ready to take some type of action on that message. For you, the marketer, this means that
