Back to basics…

OK, I am back again today! I have been thinking about where to begin and how much detail to include for these early entries. I have decided that information can still be added at a later date so if I miss some thing out or spot some thing note worthy I will come back to it, or you can let me know if you want to add to it.

Because we are going to be selling or promoting some thing, I shall assume now then that you are planning to or already have some sort of web site or a blog that you have started recently?

Starting a web site might be OK for the technical people amongst us but for some it may seem quite daunting. First you will need to find a provider to host it and you will also need to think of a domain name (a name unique to you and your place on the Internet). The main point is that you need to establish a presence on the Internet so that the search engines such as Google and Bing can find you and so can people and hence any prospective customers when they conduct a search!

May be a web site isn’t for you at the moment and a Blog would be a better method of establishing a web presence:

You can start a blog for free on many sites including:

WordPress

Blogger

Typepad

Squidoo

These blog hosts offer enough help and support  for any one starting out in the World of blogging.

When you first begin writing your blog  you of course can see its published, no one else will know it’s there and as part of the move to promote your Internet presence you need to start submitting it to blog directories, Social Bookmarking sites and of course to search engines like Google and Bing. Here are some important places that you should visit and make sure you put your blog URL address in!

Technorati

Digg

Stumbleupon

Linkreferral

There are many other directories and sites that you can submit your details but the ones I have mentioned will enable searches on Google and Bing for instance, to come up with your website/blog details. Importantly you should make sure to use Digg and Stumbleupon regularly, making sure that you are including your blog posts and site updates. You should also submit other important web site and blogs to them and leave reviews and comments for them. More Reading.

Why all this important I shall come back to later, so keep reading my updates!
