Creating a successful blog isn’t just about well-written content. The best bloggers today create online courses, have in-depth lead pages, great photography and graphics, and focus on a niche market.

What’s the #1 tip Ana shares in this episode? Work on your SEO ranking for every. single. post. It’s a slow, yet surefire way to increase your web traffic and gain the type of followers that truly matter for your brand and blog.

Sales is simply the transfer of enthusiasm from one person to another. Pre-selling your projects is one way to share that enthusiasm and passion, without making it feel forced! Pre-selling creates an organic type of buy that is already out there – you just have to capture it.

You can integrate pre-selling techniques into your existing online content. Create online courses and “name drop” your new project or product in the material. Post about the upcoming project on social media, without any type of “ask” attached. Essentially, you need to rethink the traditional launch sequence and make talking about your passion projects as natural as possible. You’ll see the engagement rates for your new project skyrocket if you’re gradually building up to the release. To hear more details on the pre-selling technique and how Ana used this very method in her own blog company, don’t miss this episode.
