Basically what I will write after this is coming from my own experience. Which mean, I’ve tested it before.
But I can’t guarantee it will work for all.

Here is the 2 methods :
1. Viral Contest
2. Home Affiliate Program

Viral Contest

This has work for me for a long time.
I will list down, some type of contest that I did before
1. Comment Contest
2. Review Contest
3. Copy Quote contest
4. Twitter contest

There are a lot of type of contests out there that you can try.
But, here are the things that you must make sure to have in your contest to make it viral.
1. Easy to do, the easiest the better. Among four of the contest above, I have a lot of participants join the contest on the point #3 and #4. Since the rule was easy, ie, copy n paste

2. Include this important rules : “You must tell about this contest inside your blog to participate”. For contest #3 and #4, it is not necessary since, they just to copy and paste your quote which in the first place, you already insert the contest’s url

3. Prize. The bigger the price the better. From my experience, prize like gadgets, hosting, domain etc, has bigger impact than offering cash

4. short period. 30 days is the maximum unless your prize worth more than $1000

There once, I made a contest that the winner counted by their points.
Here was the rules :
1. Subscriber to my feedburner : 20 points
2. Follow me on twitter : 20 points
3. Write review about the contest : 30 points
4. Each comment on my blog : 1 point per comment

You can try that too. About the prizing, I offered prize up to 10th best points. At the end of the contest, I found that, only a few contestants were consistent

Home Affiliate Program

1. Its mean, you sell a product using subdomain, etc; productname.mydomain.com

Then, you offer affiliate for that product. When affiliates, start promoting your product, indirectly, they also promote your blog.

I rather suggest you sell digital product. So that, when the product sold, customer will go to your blog, to download the product.

TIP : I find out, to make your customer being repeated customer :
1. Ask them to subscribe to ‘customer support center’ newsletter before they can download their product (not recommended, but it work)

2. Offer them, to subscribe to ‘customer support center’ newsletter, inside the download page (recommended)

To make it viral, set a follow up email, that tell your customer about your affiliate program.
With this, your affiliate will be from
-your existing affiliate
-your customer

The more people promote your product, the more your blog will go through.

2. Start Pay Per Lead program using your blog

Same as above, but instead of selling some product, now you offer FREE product.
I found myself so successful with this method

PS : this method will work for a blog with good content. Otherwise, people come to your blog, then find that, your blog isn’t interesting, and they’ll get away

PPS : I use this method, to promote my unknow blog, to successful blog. With above methods, I have 1000++ feedburner subscriber in less than 1 year blogging, almost 10k subscriber into my newsletter and have made thousands of cash since then.

I hope this method, will work for your blog too.

Thanks

So many book. I went from section to another section. Looking for interesting book. Actually, I didn’t look for any book. It was just my new hobby to visit any nearby bookstore.

When I was at bookstore, what I looked, was not the book’s  title only. I also looking for its cover design and how the presentation being made. It gave me new idea on how do I blog.

A second before I went out from the bookstore, ideas triggered. I was looking for one specific book. I wen from category to another category and, bump…the idea came in.

It happen when I suddenly got the answer for one of the question emailed to me.

"Where to get the blog’s idea ?"

One of the answer is, BOOKSTORE. Yes it is. If you don’t have idea on what o blog. Why don’t you go to the nearby bookstore?

How its work? If you really don’t have the idea, why don’t you use categories as your niche. I mean, most of the bookstore out there, categorize the books into their categories. As example, War & History. You can write a blog talking about history, war or even both of it.

What to write?

Don’t worry. Write about the book you found on that categories. You can write the summaries or even a preview on what is written on the book.

Get the idea?

Nah, I hope your  "What to blog" problem will be solve with this idea.

PS : Inspiring Business Quotes

 Sparkling Blog Writing

What Types of Writing to Use 

• •Information about the company.  Including contact information, FAQs about your company, company or product manuals and other information makes it easy for readers to find what they need about you – which encourages readers to refer to your blog each time they need to know about your company.

• •Job opportunities and company culture. Listing job openings and information about philanthropic causes your company is involved in as well as information about the atmosphere of your company is useful for job hunters.  It is also an easy way to get more readers interested in you company.

• •Comments about the company and personal comments from workers. Personal comments are what really set blogs apart from other types of online writing.  Personal comments from company leaders and employees let readers know what your company is really like.  It can also improve sales, as customers are likely to develop brand loyalty if they see your company as a “face” or voice rather than just an impersonal logo.

• •Value-added content for readers. Providing useful and handy information is one of the best ways to get readers to your site – and to get readers interested in your product.  Offer screensavers with your company logo, contests, tips, and useful articles, and you are more likely to get a regular group of readers.

Adding Style to Your Blog Writing

STYLE

• • Keep it short. Like other types of online writing, blogging tends to rely on short paragraphs and small pages with links rather than big blocks of text.  Also, using the active voice (“We have opened a new division” rather than “A new division has been opened”) is also good for developing a nicer style.

• •Let your logo do the talking. Rather than trying to promote the company constantly in your text, try making your text keyword-rich and value-added content rather than too “salesy.”  Instead, have your company logo clearly displayed on the page and mention the company as a workplace.  Your readers will still know about your company, but without feeling as though they are reading an ad.

• •Stay enthusiastic.  Write about what you care about and write with genuine passion.  Writing dry copy just because you feel a blog is a useful marketing tool will not get you more readers or more customers.

There are several ways to make your blog one of the “hot” blogs online.  Traditionally, those companies that have the largest star-power have had the most popular blogs, since everyone loves to read about celebrity or success.  However, a great many smaller companies and individuals are developing large followings on the web. You can, too, with this simple lesson.

Keep it Rich

Steps to take:

• •Keep keyword content high with plenty of keywords.  As you write your blog entries, do try to use not only keywords having to do with your topic, but also synonyms for your keywords.  This will help your readers find you more easily on the Internet.  For example, if you offer discount fashions, use a variety of keywords, including “discount fashions,” “cheap designer wear,” “discount clothing” and others.

• •Provide quality, often-updated content.

• •Specialize.  The best way to make use of the search engine optimisation of blogs is to narrow your focus.  Rather than developing a hodgepodge of ideas and themes, write with one theme in mind.  It will help ensure that people looking for information on your topic will always find you through a search engine.

Join the Community

• •Add the address for your blog to email signatures and include mention in any ezine or email newsletter you have to let readers know about your blog.

• •Mention your blog on appropriate forums.  For example, if your company offers resume writing services, consider writing about your blog in job-hunt forums.  

• •Allow for readers’ commentary on your blog.  Many online blog publishing programs already allow this.  If your readers can post their comments and read the comments of other readers, they are more likely to return to your blog regularly, and so keep your company name in mind.

• •Make your blog searchable through your interests. Many blog programs allow you to create a user profile, which allows readers to search for you and your blog by interest topic and locations, in many cases.  Do not overlook this simple way to draw readers.  Simply fill out your profile, taking care to use many “interests” to attract more readers and browsers.

The profitability of PPC advertising depends on the general traffic levels of the website and, most importantly, on the click-through rate (CTR) and cost per click (CPC).

The CTR depends on the design of the website. Ads placed above the fold or blended with content, for instance, tend to get higher CTRs.

The CPC, on the other hand, depends on the nice of the website. Cancer, real estate and college education are examples of profitable niches (clicks worth a couple of dollars are not rare), while tech-related topics tend to receive a smaller CPC (sometimes as low as a couple of cents per click).

The source of the traffic can also affect the overall CTR rate.
Organic traffic (the one that comes from search engines) tends to perform well because these visitors were already looking for something, and they tend to click on ads more often.
Social media traffic, on the other hand, presents terribly low CTRs because these visitors are tech savvy and they just ignore ads.

List of popular CPC advertising networks:

 

·Google Adsense

· Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN)

· BidVertiser

· Chitika

· Clicksor

· Adbrite

Here are some common answers :
1. Release tension
2. Want to share ideas
3. Create brand awareness
4. Brand your name
5. Make money
6. Make money
7. Make money
