“The Secret to Attracting
Thousands of Loyal Customers and Ranking High in the Search Engines . . . With
or Without a Website!”
Man Diagnosed With Diabetes
Now Makes a Full-Time Living Writing About the Disease…On His Blog!
How You Can Attract More
Customers and Rank High in the Search Engines Through the Power of Blogging…
From the Desk of: Caroline Melberg,
Blogging Consultant
Dear Business Owner,
It sounds incredible, but it’s absolutely true.
After being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, Ken Savage decided to learn all
he could about the disease . . . and share that knowledge with other diabetics.
So he created a blog
and started sharing news about the disease and the various treatment options he
discovered. Later, he included advertising on the site to earn a little extra
money. Now he makes $40,000 a year—a respectable full-time income—just from
advertising on his blog!
And he isn’t the
only one . . .
Allison Nazarian, founder of a small copywriting and marketing firm, decided
to start a company blog to share marketing advice and news on the latest trends
in the industry.
Over time, Allison has increased the number of visitors to her Website from
100 per month before the blog, to over 150,000!
Before starting her blog, most of Allison’s business came through
word-of-mouth, while only 1% came through her Website. Now over
25% of her new business comes from her
Website, and she has increased sales 18% from
last year.
If they can do
it, so can you . . .
Every day, businesses large and small are
getting more customers and ranking higher
in the search engines with or without a Website . . . by blogging. And
the best part is you can too!
Unless you’ve been living in a cave for the last few years, you’ve probably
at least heard of blogging.
But if you think it’s just some Internet fad . . . or a self-indulgent
activity for wannabe writers with too much time on their hands, you’re wrong!
Blogging is the
next big thing in Internet marketing
According to the ad industry trade magazine
Ad Age, “there are roughly
15 million active blogs currently read by 57 million people”.
According to the blog search engine Technorati, the “blogosphere”, the part
of the Internet made up of blogs, doubles every
320 days! That means around 1.4 new blogs are created every second!
“…this is not a passing fad
that can be ignored.”
--Michael Gartenberg, Jupiter Research Analyst
Why You Need A
Business Blog
In other words, blogging is big business. And whether you’ve been on the
Internet for a while, or you don’t even have a Website yet, you need to have a
blog. Here’s just a few reasons why:
- Establish yourself as an expert.
Writing articles on your blog gives you expert status in the eyes of your
prospects.
- Announce new products and services, and
sell them right away. In the old days, you’d send out a direct mail
campaign, place expensive ads, and wait months for the checks to roll in. With
a blog, telling your customers about your latest offering—and then selling it
to them—takes only a few hours!
- Easier to set up than a Website!
You can have a blog up and running in as little as a few minutes.
- No technical expertise required.
Unlike a Website, you don’t need to know HTML or a bunch of fancy programming
languages. If you can type, you can blog.
And The #1 Reason
to Have a Business Blog…
All those reasons I mentioned above are important, but they’re not the most
important.
The biggest benefit to having your very own business blog is that it can . .
.
Make Google Fall In Love
With You!
Translation? Increased search engine ranking.
That’s right. Because each blog post adds new content to your Website, it
causes the search engines to update their records with your Website information
more often, giving you higher placement on the major search engines!
That way, you can rank on page one on Google
or any other search engine for the keywords you want to be known for!
You see, if you want to be found online, you
need to be on the first results
page in Google, preferably within the first 6 listings.
The further down the list your site appears, the less likely it will be that
someone will click over to it. And if you get beyond page 2 or 3 of the
listings, forget about it! Nobody’s going to know you exist.
But don’t worry. Ranking high on Google isn’t as hard as it sounds . . . and
I’m here to help you.

My Own Results…
When I started experimenting with my own blog, I discovered that the many
benefits of having a blog—becoming known as an expert, building a relationship
with your customers, and all the rest paled in
comparison to the benefits of using your blog to improve your search engine
ranking.
And through a lot of trial and error, I’ve discovered what works…and what
doesn’t!
For
example, thanks to blogging, for the keyword phrase “Minnesota Internet
Marketing”
we moved up from ranking #38 (where nobody would ever find us) to ranking #4 and
#6 on Page 1 in Google!
For the
keyword phrase “Small Business Marketing Minnesota” we went from ranking
somewhere after page 10
to ranking #1, #2, and #3 on Page 1 of Google.
We even beat out the United States
Government’s Small Business Association site—all because of the search
engine optimization techniques we put into place on our blogs!
But don’t just take my word for it!
Here’s what a few very happy clients had to say about my teaching:

So Easy, Even A “New-bie” Can Do
it!”
"Our blog has been a great tool for keeping our customers up-to-date on
what’s going on with PillowGram. We just launched in July of last year, so
we’ve had lots of new additions that we want to keep our customers updated
on, and posting to our blog is so much quicker than updating our website.
Our blog is so easy to use, I just enter the information like I would in a
Word document or an e-mail, click “publish” and it’s on the Internet,
available for everyone to see. I was worried that it would be too
complicated for me to figure out, but
Caroline’s instructions were
so clear and easy to follow, even a computer “new-bie” like me can do
it!”
Nancy Sundeen
Founder & President, PillowGram
www.pillowgram.biz
“We’re On Page One of Google!”
Since launching our blog in September of last year,
we have seen dramatic
results in terms of search engine optimization for our
primary keyword (Wayzata dentist). By following Caroline's blogging
advice, we’ve gone from hardly ranking at all, to ranking in
positions # 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 AND 10 on the first page of Google!”

“I’ve Already Launched My Blog!”
First let me tell you how much I got out of Biz Blogging Basics.
It completely exceeded
my expectations. I hope you know that you are not only
knowledgeable on the subject, but a good teacher. I have coached
trainers for years and done it myself. You have some very great
techniques that seem to come naturally. Your course is clear and down
to earth, making it easy for me to understand and implement. I’ve
already launched my new blog!

I now know exactly what to do to
launch my blog!”
“The material in BizBloggingBasics is succinct, well-organized, and
compelling. This course demystified technology for me, and gave me
achievable, step-by-step guidelines that will help me find new
customers, make my own service offerings more attractive, and
drive new revenue for
my company.”

“Our Blog Differentiates us from
our Competitors”
“We would never have
successfully launched our blog without Biz Blogging Basics. I
learned from this course how important links are for search engine
optimization, and was able to use our blog as a value-add for our
members, as every time they post to our blog, they create a new link
back to their own website. This helped us set our company apart from
our competitors.”

Biz Blogging Basics is the only system
that shows you how to rank high in the search engines. Without high
search engine ranking, the fanciest blog on the Internet won’t get your
business noticed.
Best of all – our simple, step-by-step instructions mean you don’t have
to be a computer genius to understand it. Forget trying to launch a blog
yourself through trial-and-error. Biz
Blogging Basics saves you time, money – and frustration!
OK, Caroline.
I’m Convinced.
So How Much Is This Gonna Cost Me?
I’m glad you asked! Now, keep in mind, this is the same
information that led The Wall Street Journal to interview me on blogging for
search engine optimization:
“Search engines rank
blogs with fresh content higher
than ones that are rarely updated, says Caroline
Melberg, president of Melberg Marketing Inc., an
online-marketing firm in Wayzata, Minn. So the higher a
blog is ranked, the greater the chances of consumers finding it, she says.”
Caroline Melberg
As quoted in:
“Blog it and They May
Come, The Wall Street Journal,
August, 2007
And it’s also the same information I
teach in my One-on-One Blogging Classes that I charge my clients $450 to
attend.
But I’m not going to do that to you. I’m even offering you a special deal
