Not long ago I figured that blogging is an effective way to promote websites, almost all the blogs on which I chose to work were based on wordpress, as far as we know that wordpress is ideal for almost all kinds of blogging needs, people even use it as CMS, together with Open Source License make the WordPress the fastest growing blogging platform ever.

Lately I figured that I should build my own blogs and promote them, then I can use established and fully owned blogs to advertise other websites, of course this is not a new idea, all kinds of blog networks are out there for the exact purpose, but those are not my own sites and I don’t have control, not to mention I can’t just post to them, probably I will have to pay quite dearly to have my sites promoted.

Its a tedious job to maintain more than a few blogs, if you’re not using your blogs as spamming device, to put real content on your site won’t be an easy job, remember real value is always difficult to achieve. I’ve seen quite a few real world examples, look at this one, Feng Shui Expert, the domain name is pretty good, the content on the site is not bad, though its not a theme focused blog, there are all kinds of posts on the site. One more example, The Basics of Steel Chain, this one has main theme, the content on the this site has a theme, quite a few keywords rank well for this site. Its easy to show more similar sites, but you should already see the point. Last but not least, some of your blogs should not be very serious ones, let them get some content occasionally, such as this blog, get domains, doing this right you will have a natural blogging networks.

When you already have a few interesting blogs, you can try to build a few more, then use the established blogs to promote the new ones, this way you get your little blog network rolling. It sounds pretty simple, but the real stuff will be more complicated, there’s one thing you do have to keep in your mind is that don’t ruin your hard work just because you want to cut a few corners.
