This is Christopher Stigson, a blogger who has spent hundreds of hours trying to figure out the blogging game. I think I've finnally cracked part of the code and I'm sharing this with you today. The point of this article is to run a test and at the same time share some knowledge about internet marketing blogs.

It's no lie that blogs are a very profitable way of running an online business. You probably need to do a couple of things differently in order to fully have all the benefits that comes with owning a blog. Internet marketing strategies for promoting and using special tricks to increase search engine rankings is not unusual around here.

What I've found is that creating a traffic pulling blog is more than just about getting search engine rankings. You need more... See... Blogs are so easily syndicated using RSS and tools such as RSS submit to get your website spread like wildfire in just one go. This is no news... This isn't any news either, but you want to "deep link" your blog posts and have strictly defined anchor texts.

If you are in the middle of starting an internet marketin related blog which sole purpose is to write about internet marketing you probably want to "sub-niche it". This means you choose a specific topic within "internet marketing". This can be affiliate marketing, article marketing, eBay marketing, Traffic generation and more.

It's important to "niche within the internet marketing niche" if you want to dominate search engines. It's that simple to generate income, once it's set up. Don't make the mistake of targeting "make money", "make easy money" or "make money online" first time around or you'll be quite disappointed =). Instead use keyword research tools and gain massive leverage over your competition who is guessing what we search for.

Let's say we are in the sub-niche "traffic generation". After doing keyword research and finding your competition using "link:http://www.yourcompetition.com" in Yahoo for the top 10-20 results or using a research tool you'll need to record all the data and find a sub-niche-long-tail-keyword. Let's say it's "increase search engine traffic", which is a very legit word that I've researched before.

Register a domain called "http://www.increase-search-engine-traffic.com" or something like that. If you want a short catchy domain name, go for that, but try having "traffic" in your domain name... seriously, this will help a lot.

It's time to write content. Since we have a keyword, in this case "increase search engine traffic" all we have to do is write content about the subject and post to our new internet marketing blog. Simple and smart! You also want to collect some 15-50 keywords more and type content using these keywords. Start posting them to various article directories online and start to see profits. Recommended directories include ezinearticles and goarticles.
