Today you should:

1) Start using Social Poster to bookmark your blog/s. (you’ll need to sign up for a number of social bookmarking sites)

2) Submit an article for each of your sites to Ezine Articles

Today’s lesson is how to build a free blog using Tumblr.

Basically:

• sign up
• create the blog, with a name based on your keyword,
• create an article that tells a story, once again based on your keyword,
• and include your affiliate links in your article.

Or, instead of Tumblr, try one of these:

• Squidoo
• Hubpages
• Netscape
• MySpace
• YouTube
• EHow
• USFreeAds
• Zimbio
• Blogger
• WordPress

Oh yes – write three articles on each of your keywords again, today.

Starting to look at how to get traffic:

• You want your site to be indexed in Google, because 50% of search traffic goes through Google.
• Black hat strategies do not provide real value to the searcher – better to use white hat strategies.
• A new web site has no reputation or trust, so a new ‘money site’ will not be attractive to Google

To start getting traffic to a new web site you need association with:

1) a site that is liked by Google, has user generated content, tagging, and will link to you (sounds like a Web 2.0 site to me!) – postnote: looks like its Tumblr – see TDC Day 16

Wow! theres a new free WordTracker tool based on the Thirty Day Challenge Techniques. And did I say, its free? Have a look at the new WordTracker GTrends

Ok, back to the new tasks:

Today, research & write three new articles for the umbrella keywords

Then start to research affiliate programs for your two niches. – check out Clickbank, Amazon, and other affiliate networks.

• You’ve found your niche markets
• You’ve done all the keyword research
• You’ve narrowed the markets down to two
• You’ve researched those markets

Now its time to make use of that research, and write three short articles for the ‘umbrella keyword’ you selected for each of your two niches.

Use your RSS feeds from blogs, Google news, etc. Read them in Bloglines

Clip interesting paragraphs in Google notebook, then export them to Google docs to turn them into an article.
