Blogging is Critical to Your Online Success

Speaking of hurrying, a blog post properly optimized can be one of the
quickest ways to jump the queue online. For example, a couple of months ago,
I wrote a blog post entitled "Get Your Best Customers to Toot Your Horn."
The post extolled the virtues of employing video testimonials in order to
boost credibility, as well as turning your best customers into your best
salespeople. After posting this article on blogger, as well as reprinting it
on linktoexpert.com, I googled the title the next day and found that both
the original blog, and the repost appeared at the top of page 1. Not bad for
a half hour's work.

Creating and disseminating compelling blogs is one of the easiest ways to
wind up on page one. Why? Because Google is gaga for mixed media,
particularly when they own the conduit. By posting your blogs on Blogger,
which Google owns and posting your videos on YouTube, which Google owns, not
only will you improve your content worthiness, but you will also feed the
800lb gorilla in the room that owns and operates the most successful and
profitable search engine on the planet.
