We have been optimizing our websites (we have a TON of them) for nearly 13 years and have made every mistake in the book. I LOVE SEO and study it all the time. I find it fascinating how to changes almost weekly. We have an SEO person that we work with that has really helped, but for whatever reason, I LOVE SEO and get a kick out of learning and engaging it on the websites when I can.

How do your optimize your blogs for MLM RECRUITING?

In a home business, it is important to make money blogging that is totally STOKED, TWEAKED, and OPTIMIZED for recruiting the right people from your blog.

What is REQUIRED for Optimizing a Home business blog For Recruiting? Well, we do not have time to get into that as it would take WEEKS to complete that conversation, but we can get you started if you are not “hip to the facts” as they say. This is where conversion rate optimisation agency can improve your entire ecommerce business. Much of the research that goes into CRO has to do with who your customer is and testing is a big part of making sure your store is effective and helps you get to know exactly who you’re dealing with and what they prefer. If you’re about to start some CRO initiatives within your company, CRO experts recommend you start with some conversion research in order to understand how visitors are interacting with your online store and what type of friction is causing bottlenecks within your sales funnel.  I’ve done this research myself on a client’s website and I must say, I was surprised of the type of data we gathered.  You tend to  learn more about who you customers are and their challenges.

FIRST OFF….What is the purpose of optimizing blogs for recruiting from search engine traffic?

A lot of  home business bloggers overlook the importance of optimizing their blogs for recruiting from traffic from search engines. The actual point of home based business blogging is usually to create EXPOSURE, VISIBILITY, AWARENESS, and to GAIN READERS. These are the “potential prospects” that you can engage about your home based business in the future. Or, you can engage them directly with a recruiting post on your blog. Either way, it works.

You want people to “feel” your blog, not just look at it. They need to “sense” that this blog is powerful and CAN HELP THEM. You want to have others read your home business trainings, thoughts, opinions, tips, offers, and marketing ideas on various issues concerning your home business. This includes Success with a home business, WHY they need a home business, New ideas for your prospect to gain from, introduce to them the current possibiltiies for their life in your niche industry, and in many cases just what is on your mind about life.

Some home business bloggers who blog for recruiting reasons, their main goal is to create more SEO traffic. Nothing wrong with that! Both of these home business blogging needs demand  the blog be totally optimized for recruiting and SEO for search engines.

Unless you have been living under a rock, (smile) you know it is called SEO or search engine optimization. This marketing process is the same that your message normally goes through with a business or personal home business site –only it is a blog (much like a journal)  that your work at home message and your mlm network marketing efforts are now attempting to optimize. A blog is a website-sort of.

We take it a step FURTHER. We call it “Search Engine Optimization for Recruiting.” This is what you TRULY want, as you can optimize a blog for searches, but it MUST BE OPTIMIZED for recruiting your readers and prospects as well.

The whole process of optimization for recruiting  and SEO is critical to bring in new home based business prospects and traffic to your home business blog. You need to present your work at home message you are promoting to that traffic coming  in from major search engines such as google, bing, and yahoo.com. This makes it easy for users or readers to search and find your blog so you can then expose your message to them and to start the recruiting process. If your success message and business want to gain a growing group of loyal readers as well as potential customers, than you must optimize your blog for recruiting and search engines the same way your work at home message and home business would on a personal or business HTML website.

Blog SEO Optimization for Recruiting is the key to a successful online home business web blog and the traffic your work at home message and home business need. Without the optimizing your blog for SEO and recruiting for search engines, your blog will never be seen or read.

Lets be REAL…What is the purpose of a content rich, AMAZING looking, Easily Navigated, idea soaked,  hooked up powered up jamming down blog with no one to read it and thus- no one to recruit?
