Using Free Techniques When Promoting Products

[mjb13815]

Hello everyone, I am using free methods to promote products. Right now I am focused on about 3 products at this point and would like to use all the free techniques I learned and apply them for each product. I just don't want to sound redundant but then again maybe it doesn't matter. I will make 1 blog at blogger 1 blog at wordpress, a lens, and about 10+ articles. I will do this for each product I promote. I'm just afraid that I will sound too redundant especially with the 2 blogs and lens. I have created links to go to my website and to the other blogs/lens. But one of the blogs I don't create any backlinks because at that point I think It will just be saying the same information over again and I don't want to take visitors to another blog/lens where they are just getting the same information. But the other sites link back to one another but the one blog just links to the review site and product site. But then again visitor tend to skim over a lot of things so maybe it doesn't matter too much. The 1 blog and lens that link back to each other are fine but I don't want to link the other blog to those ones. Now I'm probably repeating myself I apologize for that haha.

Any input about how i'm doing this will be greatly appreciated. I will probably post this to other forums as well just to get more feedback.

Thank you everyone,

Matt

Each site should have diffferent information that you are offering your visitors. Break your information up. Make one a review, the other FAQ's etc. This way your targeting all aspects of what a potential customer maybe looking for. :)

Looks good, Matt :)

So what your saying is to use all these tools (blogger, wordpress, squidoo, etc) to promote a single product but divide the information up for each tool I use?

Hi mjb13815,

Your blogger blog looks great by the way! I think that the site flow has to make sense. In essence you are pre-selling a product with the idea that the companies pitch page will make the hard sale for you. It is good to have everything on one topic linked together if it is not redundant information.( this does wonders for backlinks) I usually want to have someone hit the sales page in two or less pages. (Example: Article then blog then pitch page.) However if they really want to get more information on a specific aspect of that topic, they can find it but it is not the main focus of the page. For example, I have a site selling a twitter product but I also want to make it useful for those that are already using Twitter and just want more information on certain topics like " twitter following rules" or "websites that make twitter easier to use" So I have a blog dedicated to those types of topics and send an RSS feed to my main landing page. If they want that info they can view my blog. It just depends what the goals of your page are. Your main focus should be to pre-sell them and then let the company pitch page do the work.

Hope this mumbo jumbo helps!

Hey thank you TSF. Your advice is very helpful and yes it does make sense except for RSS feed. I don't know what that means.

Here is a great site that explains RSS further:)

So this means that whenever there is an RSS feed we should ?connect? it? Read the link and looked at the diagram...does not compute!
I thought RSS feeds were basically a way to "ping" your new info but on a continuous basis? Are RSS feeds important enough to go back and re-do or just add from now on?

If you have time to go back and do it you can. Otherwise just start adding it to your list of to-do's :)

Hi TSF

Yeah I dont understand this RSS Feed thing either. I just can't get my mind around it for some reason. Guess when I hear the word feed it means i have to go and "feed the dogs!!"

Can I ask you a big favour - wont you please go to my blog and have a look and see if I have set the RSS feed up properly.

Thanks :)

Let me know your thoughts :)

Ok let me see if I understand this right ... back to 7th grade

If I have an RSS feed on my blog and someone clicks on it they can then choose where they want to get access (like their google home page) to this blog quickly without having to look up the blog ever again.

Have I got it right?

Actually another question.... does bookmarking apply the same principle but this time its to their sites like facebook etc.?
