Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Computer with Internet access
  • Community in which to blog in
  • Website
  1. Step 1

    Join a couple of Internet communities that offer blogging. Make sure that you stay within your niche.

  2. Step 2

    Introduce yourself within these communities and make a presence without mentioning your website initially. You want to build a reputation within these communities by making daily appearances and by showing your expertise on the product.

  3. Step 3
     

    Introduce your website only after establishing your reputation. By this time you will have begun the very important customer relationship and these people will be glad to visit your website.

  4. Step 4

    Offer something on your website that is of value on your website to get your customers to return. Afterall, one time sales will not make you successful but ongoing customer relationships will.

Tips & Warnings
  • Do not barge into your communities and appear as a salesperson because you will turn people off right way.
