Start A Business Blog – Results After 60 Days
If you are thinking of starting a business blog, or if you are a small business owner looking for a cost-effective way to create a web presence for your business, then check out some of the previous posts on this blog, which explains why setting up a blog using our step-by-step business blog video tutorials may be a smarter strategy for growing your business online than spending money on web site development.
In the video below, we look at the results we have achieved 60 days after setting up this business blog on a brand new domain name, simply by following the same instructions we provide to small business owners in our “how to start a business blog” tutorials.
The video above shows that, with only 16 posts made to this blog since we registered the domain name “selfpublishweb.com” 60 days ago, the number of pages indexed in Google as well as the number of visitors to this site has increased by over 400% since we made our previous video, documenting the growth of this blog.
Search Google for terms like “blogs”, “blogging”, “business blog”, “business blogging”, etc … and you’ll find tens of millions of competing pages. As stated in the video, gaining any kind of search engine traffic in a market as competitive as this one for a site that is barely 60 days old and that was set up on a brand new domain, therefore, is quite a challenge. Nonetheless, as the video shows, we are steadily increasing our exposure in the search engines, and attracting visitors to our blog, using the exact same methods and strategies we share with our customers in our videos and training emails.
Something that I didn’t mention in the video, is that 51 days after launching this site, we made our first online sale. In fact, we have made a few more sales since then. As we have not started promoting this site in any way other than by following the same basic strategy we recommend to all of our clients – set up your business blog as per our instructions, then simply write about your business and post content regularly to your blog – all sales have come purely from doing simple things that anyone can learn how to do, and which don’t require any technical web skills.
The video shows what you can expect to happen to your own business blog after 60 days, simply by writing and posting just a little more than a dozen articles or posts to your site. The system we show you how to set up in our tutorials automatically goes to work for you when you do this.
In case you are thinking that a whole lot of work is required to start growing your business online using a business blog, consider this: 16 articles in 60 days is equal to posting one article every 3 to 4 days. So, let’s do the maths … by getting a blog set up in a couple of hours and then committing to writing a couple of paragraphs about your business once or twice a week, you can start driving new customers and making new sales in 60 days or less. This represents a commitment in total hours spent of about … one day!
I know many small business owners who, after 60 days of endless discussions with web developers and web designers, are still waiting for their web sites to be finished. Sites, by the way, which often end up costing them several thousand dollars and offer way less than a blog in terms of functionality, automation and ease of use. With a blog, we can show you how you can be forging ahead of your competitors, establishing your presence online and driving new visitors and potential customers for your products and services in as little as a few hours from now. And all of this can be achieved for less than $100.
