There Are Business Blogs For That Purpose
Written by maychaell on 12:09 PMMany industries have blogging networks, and these networks use the same social networking strategies as regular blog systems. This means small businesses have a place to go in order to get referrals, communicate with customers and post informational or advertorial pieces. Posting Advertisements online in the form of a social networking blog entry is counter-productive to basic blog etiquette.
One of the reasons that small business owners post advertisements in free-blog social networks is because they do not understand how to get their message out in an online venue or how to promote their message to get results. Believe it or not even seasoned business bloggers make errors in the way they go about their blogging.
It is for this reason that I believe someone ought to create a Free-eBook to help folks who run small businesses survive and thrive on a industry specific blogging networks. Below is the sample table of contents that someone ought to use to do just that. Such an eBook will those who own a small business and are considering blogging for business:
