Everything else you wanted to know about Active Rain Blogging and were afraid to ask...I called Art and Karen Kruschka this weekend to ask a few more questions about a comment Art had made while on the blogging panel at the D.C. Rain Camp.
Everything else you wanted to know about Active Rain Blogging and were afraid to ask... My question was as simple as where do you find the words that you want to have for long tail searches. More questions were as simple as how do you acquire the recreation, transportation, schools, churches, shopping information...i.e. which websites do you utilize?
Art made a comment that they had blogged about maybe 50 communities and basically owned them on Google after all these years of doing hyper local posts. This was the one thing at Rain Camp that stopped me in my tracks. So, inquiring minds had to know and I stopped what I was doing this weekend and called and asked. Bless their hearts, they had written several posts to answer my questions but of course I kept having more questions.
This is so simple. It had gone over my head. Google ad words. Yep, check out Google ad words. I looked up a Dummies book for my Kindle on Google ad words, too. Then the research is simple. Drive around. Go ten minutes. Drill the seller. Use a map book. Use the county website. In the beginning you will spend hours doing these hyper local posts then it becomes one hour. Yep, one hour. They just wrote a few more posts outlining their system. I forgot to mention, I had sent them a referral many moons ago but had never met them until camp. Glad I finally did. So what is my mission? One a week. That's fifty during my second full year of blogging which starts July 11. Nifty fifty!
