How To Promote Your Content on YouTube
If you signed up for a YouTube account but you haven’t figured out what to do with it, here’s your answer – start promoting your content! I know, I know…you have a list of excuses for why you didn’t make a video yet, but I’m prepared to address each one of your fears so you can get started with promoting your blog, your website and even your ebooks on YouTube!
Excuses For Not Using YouTube
I don’t look good on camera
I don’t have a webcam (use my affiliate link to get the webcam I use)
I don’t know how to make a video
I don’t speak English clearly
My Response To Your Excuses
You don’t need to get in front of the camera (see #2)
You don’t need a webcam you can use free screen capture software like Screenr or Screencast-o-matic
You can watch my Screenr tutorial and all you need to do is push the record button
You can use a website like XtraNormal they say “if you can type you can make movies” and they do all the talking for you

Build Links with YouTube
Now that all your excuses are out of the way, let’s get started (if you have more excuses, leave a comment and I’ll add it to the list along with my response). Here’s a great example from one of my favorite YouTube superstars SoldierKnowsBest.

Mark (that’s his real name) has links to his affiliate products and his smart phone apps, not to mention over 66,000 views in just under one week! Let’s look at another example. Have you ever checked out DeStorm? He’s the man on YouTube!

DeStorm has links to his products and his Facebook page too and if you were impressed with 66,000 views in a week, what do you have to say about 195,000 views in a week? Notice that he also used a cool annotation feature in the top right hand side of the video to link to another YouTube video he wants you to watch. I like how he added some other call-outs for his social networks like Twitter and Facebook.
I’m not trying to convince you that you can become a YouTube star like DeStorm or SoldierKnowsBest, I just want to you see how you should use YouTube to promote your blog, your business and yes even your products by adding links to your descriptions. Don’t worry about dofollow or nofollow, just be sure to add links in your description. Don’t get carried away, but at least link to your blog, Twitter and Facebook.

How to Attract More Guest Bloggers on Your Blog

First of all, lets talk about why we need guest bloggers? As a blog owner, we need to produce high quality contents in the form of posts on daily basis to make sure our blog is moving in the right direction. Sometimes it becomes really difficult to generate targeted posts due to the busy lifestyle we all are living or we are short of blog post ideas. Guest blogging can fix this problem to a great extent. To solve the problem of publishing relevant contents on regular basis, you should incorporate a guest blogging system on your blog.

Guest Blogging is Beneficial for Both Owners and Guest Bloggers.

 

Guest Blogging is a Win-Win situation for both the blog owners and guest bloggers. As a blog owner, you are able to publish targeted and high quality content on your blog in the form of guest posts. While as a guest blogger, you are rewarded for your work in the form of quality backlinks, referral traffic and branding for your website. But now the question that arises is how to attract guest bloggers of our niche to write guest posts on our blog. If you are looking to get answers for this question or similar questions, I’m going to help you with this guest post:

1. Create Submit Guest Post Page

First thing you should do is create a page to inform your blog readers about guest blogging opportunities on your blog. You can name this page Submit Guest Post, or Write For Us, or Contribute Guest Post etc. In this page, you should mention the benefits of guest blogging and your guidelines for guest bloggers with contact details. Once you have created this page, you should add it in the header navigation section on your blog so that it grabs the attention of most of your blog readers.

2. Get in Touch with Other Guest Bloggers in Your Niche

Next thing you could do is begin making a list of blog owners in your niche and invite them for guest blogging on your blog. When you invite others bloggers, most of them will be interested in writing for your blog in case your blog has already got some popularity and they are aware about guest blogging concept. Apart from this, you should browse other blogs in your industry that accept guest posts. You should generate a list of guest bloggers who are contributing guest posts on those blogs and invite them for guest blogging on your blog.

3. Contact Blog Owners That Are Accepting Guest Posts

Ideally blog owners who are accepting guest posts on their blogs are familiar with doing guest posts themselves and would be interested in contributing a guest post on top blogs in their niche’s for better presence on the search engines front. Here is the ultimate list of 100 plus blogs accepting guest posts on their blogs. You should invite the blog owners of these blogs to write a guest post on your blog.

4. MyBlogGuest Community

MyBlogGuest is a guest blogging community website started by Ann Smarty, a well known blogger and social media activist. This blogging community has a discussion forum that one can use to invite guest bloggers to post on their blogs. So what you should do is create an account on this website and start a thread of your own to inform guest bloggers about the type of posts you want on your blog. Once you are signed in, you will see lots of similar active threads you can even reply in case you are not interested in creating a separate thread or you can use both the options.

5. Social Media Websites

I would recommend you start using Facebook, Twitter and Google+ and other popular social media websites to find guest bloggers for your blog. It would not be a difficult task in case you have huge follower base on these websites. You should make tweets about the same on Twitter and status updates on Facebook. I was able to bring in some popular guest bloggers to my blog through these websites when I tried this method in the past.

Do you have any other killer idea that can help us attract lots of guest bloggers on our blog, please share in the comments section below? You are invited to share your opinion in case you are not agreeing with any of the tips mentioned above for finding guest bloggers for our niche specific blogs.

Boosting SEO Via Articles

Boosting Your SEO VIA Articles
If you post articles to blogs, and you use WordPress, it’s quite easy to find where those articles have been posted by enabling Trackbacks. Trackbacks are found in your Comments section. Trackback show the URL of where your article was posted by connecting your keyword anchor-text to your website.
Wherever your article is posted on another WP blog, you can go to that blog and then post a comment and social bookmark it as well. This boosts linkjuice of the page where your links are.
Typically, what post 1 or 2 comments on that blog. On the page where my article was posted, I’ll make a comment on the article but the URL I promote is not directly to my site. Instead I’ll promote another URL, like perhaps a video I’ve posted in Youtube, or another article posted on another blog, site or article directory.
Posting Comments – What Links to Boost
In addition to the comment on the page where my article is posted I will look for another article on the site and post a comment on that page that does link back to Netwoozy.
This process can take about 30 minutes a day depending on how fast you work and how many blogs you want to visit for this purpose.
Article SEO – Using Social Bookmarking
If the blog has any type of social networking buttons, I’ll use those as well. I will click on TweetMe, FB Like button, and other social bookmarking buttons in order to help boost the page on that site where my article is sitting.
Outsourcing – How to Leverage Your SEO Efforts
You can also pay someone to do this for you. I would highly recommend you train the person to do this work exactly as you want it to be done. A lot of VA blog posters have poor grammar, bad spelling, and are lazy. So, you’ll need to follow up on their work to be sure you’ve hired the right person for the job.

What You’ll Get for Twelve Buckds

Every article submitted to this UniqueArticleWizard submission service usually gets submitted to about 100 to 400 article blogs, directories and websites. The more popular your niche, the more article directories and blogs there are out there wanting your articles.

UniqueArticleWizard Submission Service – How to Submit Your Articles

In order to get your article submitted to UAW you will need to have 3 versions of your article. Each article needs to have a minimum of 6 paragraphs and should be between 400 to 500 words.
You can include 1 URL Keyword Anchor Text in each article. The linked keyword can be included in each version as long as it’s within the same paragraph.  You can also include an image or a video.
Images: If you want an image or video included the image should be about 150 x 150 or somewhere in that area for size. You can email me the image as an attachment as long as we have prearranged it.
Video: Your video needs to be posted on Youtube.  You will need to include the original formatting of the Youtube embed code for me to use it.
What I recommend regarding adding your link, video and images.
I would recommend that you only include your link in two versions and you include the image and video in just one version. The reason for this is so that when the articles are spun together there will be many different versions.
Some versions will include a link, some wont. Some versions will have a video and an image but not a link, others will have the video and a link but no image. The idea here is that it is random and they look slightly different from each other.
You can get your UniqueArticleWizard Submission Service for one article for just $12.00. Many people charge $20.00 to $30.00 per article for this service. So, this is a deal.
