There are many ways to promote your home business online. The Internet has become a great source of information for all and certain tasks need to be added to your repertoire in order to stay ahead of the game.
Guest blogging or article writing is one, and it is a great way to promote your direct sales business.
One of the best ways to grab the attention of an interested party is to become an expert. Write about what you know – your business. If readers see your articles and recognize your knowledge, they will be more likely to pay attention to your writing.
Articles can be posted on a variety of websites. You can place articles on your home party plan site, your own blog LinkedIn or other niche blogs that accept guest bloggers.
The DSWA publishes guest blog posts from our Coach School graduates.
Another good way to draw attention to your business and give your blog or website more authority is to submit your articles to article directories. They will serve as resources for anyone looking for content. By placing a link to your direct sales site or personal blog in each article, you will give readers a direct link to you, so that they can navigate from the article to your website. This link back brings traffic and also attention to your site in the eyes of the search engines. Articles are a great way to share useful information to others who are searching for it.
What should you write about?
The ideas are endless. What might others want to know about the direct sales industry or your expertise or product niche?
Articles could include important tips readers can implement, answers to frequently asked questions, and specific information about your particular products, opportunity or business. Basically you should write about anything that brings value to the reader.
When written correctly and disseminated to the appropriate places, articles can be a very useful and powerful promotional tool. They provide you the opportunity to share your knowledge while giving readers something to think about and somewhere to go to learn more.
