Blogging like a PRO

Blogging is not for everyone… it’s for those who are willing to connect, share and engage! If done well, a blog should help you establish yourself as a thought leader in your field and easily gather your crowd ;) Cherie and I had the pleasure of sharing the stage with the fabulous women behind the renowned “Breakfast Blogging Club” last week at Phyllis Garland’s Women Entrepreneurs of the Bay Area. A wealth of information was shared on different subjects that included recommended tools to setup a blog, plugins to syndicate (or push) content out to social networks, tips on how to promote and expand your visibility, techniques on how to do a video blog not just to look good in front of the camera but also to engage your audience, etc. etc.

Here is just a handful of Gather Your Crowd’s tips shared that afternoon:

Make Search Engines take you seriously

  • Buy your domain for more than a year
  • Add Terms of Use and Privacy Policy to your blog
  • Pay attention to keyword density. Think like your customers!

Brand Engagement

  • Project the values of your company in your writing style
  • Filter topics through your Mission Statement or Mantra
  • Be Consistent to attract and retain a loyal following
  • Leverage the power of color psychology

We also had the pleasure of interviewing Beth and Cheryl co-founders of the Breakfast Blogging Club, who generously shared their 6 top tips for blogging.

Aaaw! thank you Jen! I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities in the near future to share our passions! I'm definitely looking forward to learning more about how I may rearrange my home furniture to look and feel right ;)
