Blogs will help you expand your content delivery to daily content updates, content updates by interest, content updates for different target audiences and so on. Help You Discover New Marketing Opportunities:Use them to increase the sales of your affiliates by providing the affiliate with blog feeds to better promote your products. New times bring new marketing opportunities, and blogs are the leaders in this area as well.Launch your own blog product feeds and digital catalogs (Amazon started publishing those not long ago) that bring your products directly to your recipient's desktops.

It's just like having a branded e-mail client that your customers and prospects are using every day ... but much cheaper.Find innovative ways of delivering your ads and direct marketing messages directly to your audiences, making sure they are actually read.Autoresponders are a great marketing tool, but are becoming ineffective because your prospects just don't want to give you their e-mail addresses. Blogs give you this very same power, but without the fear people have with e-mail.Publish your own "podcast", a special blog that carries audio. Perfect for your own audio "radio station" or for getting your voice to your readers, without having to worry about too large e-mail attachments. Podcasting got so big that not only every respected Internet marketers is using it, but also huge corporations like GM and others.Along those lines, you can also publish your own video show.Use blogs to market to your existing customers, affiliates, business partners and employees/team members.Use blogs to deliver latest posts and topics from your forums directly to your readers, to increase forum popularity and the quantity & quality of conversations.Get Your Content Published On Other Web Sites:Get your content easily published on other web sites to reach new audiences and use their traffic to increase your own sales, as well as achieve greater recognition as an expert in your field. Again, it's easy and has the potential of bringing your content to thousands and thousands of new prospects, who are ready to buy now.Help You Generate New Subscribers More Easily:Internet users are reluctant to subscribe to any more e-mail newsletters, but because blogs are so easy to control they don't have any problems with subscribing to new blog feeds that match their interests.
