This 7 Reasons To Start a Blog
Whatever online business you have, including affiliate marketing,
you must start a blog for the long-term viability of your business.
Some of the reasons to start a blog are:
1. It is the easiest way to set up a website. There are plenty of
free themes you can use for a nice looking site.
2. Search engines love blogs because they are looking for fresh
content everyday. If you work at adding new content on a
consistent basis Google and other search engines will reward
you with free traffic.
3. You can sell products, including affiliate products, on your
blog. Start by placing a banner for your favorite affiliate
program on the sidebar. Then add text link ads for more
products you sell in the content of the blog articles themselves.
4. You can earn money from AdSense, those Google text ads
that you see in many sites.
5. Blogs are a great way to interact with your visitors. You can
find lots of information and their need from your visitors'
comments on the blog. You can keep in-touch with them using
emails if they subscribe to your mailing list.
6. You can network with other bloggers in your niche and
share ideas
   
7. When you send traffic to an affiliate product site directly,
that traffic is lost to you forever. But if you send the same
traffic to your blog, you can retain a percentage of the traffic
who will become repeat visitors to your site.
