If you have a brick and mortar business, what need do I have for a Blog?

A blog is a great way to show off your knowledge and expertise in your industry, stand out among your competitors, and it helps you attract unique visitors by providing valuable information they're searching for online. And how we show our online presence is through content marketing.

2) Create content

The best way that I have seen to quickly grow in the online world and with the least amount of time consumption to increase your online visibility is to create content. Now, if you're anything like me, writing may not be your strongest suit.

Here's my pro-tip for writing, hire someone through tools like Fivrr and Upwork or use Jasper to help you fill in the gaps of your writing. Many businesses only focus on using social media. I'm hoping to switch your focus to creating quality content and social media as a way to spread the word about it.

In today's world, content doesn't have to be written, it can just as easily be video. The next questions you may have is "What am I going to share?"

When deciding what you're going to share, yes you want to make sure you've done your keyword research, you are search engine optimized, and you are sharing relevant content. The truth of any content is helping people.

I imagine you started your business to help people. So start answering questions that your customers, visitors, or users are asking! Your content doesn't have to be lengthy to be relevant, it just has help your customers feel heard.

But what if you don't have any customers yet?

This is where keyword research comes in. Google, UberSuggest, AnswerThePublic.com or TubeBuddy (for those using YouTube). These tools are easy to use and provide a lot of great insight into what people are looking for on search engines.

3) How to Optimize for visibility

Or how do you rank up for search engine results?

Here's my strategy that has helped me double my online visibility with very little effort.

1. Choose a topic

2. Record a video for YouTube

3. Transcribe video for a blog post

4. Use SEO sites like SurferSEO to optimize

5. Share to Pinterest and all my social media accounts
   

When you're first starting out, the main trick to being visible online is to share and share over and over again. Because honestly people are busy, they may see your article, video or post, but it wasn't right for them right then. So wait a few months and then re-share the same information with a tweak.

So those are my tips. If you found them helpful and you want more like this, go ahead and make sure you hit that like button. More likes I get, the more I know that this is the type of content that you're looking for.

Conclusion

By following the steps above, you can quickly and easily increase your online visibility, attract new customers, and grow your business. Creating a beautiful website, writing quality content, and optimizing for search engines are all great ways to make sure you're seen online. And don't forget to share your content on social media and with your email list to help amplify your reach. With a little effort, you can see big results from growing your online presence.

P.S. Wondering how to use Jasper or SurferSEO for creating your quality content? Here is how I've used it.

I love to speak. I love to be able to teach and get on video because I get a lot more animated. Get me in writing and it just feels like I'm flat. So Jasper helps me really bring in the emotion, bring in the engagement with my audience. So if you ever struggle with how to write and really engage with your audience through video, definitely check out Jasper.

Jasper is an AI writing tool and it is by far the best thing that I've come across since I started blogging because I am a struggling writer. I'm not very creative.

The other tool that use to get more traffic is SurferSEO that helps you rank for specific keywords and it works right along side Jasper, but can also be used separately. Before I started using SurferSEO, I wasn't ranking on Google at all and wasn't getting any Google traffic.

The only traffic that I got was from Pinterest, but then I started expand my online visibility. By using the strategy that outlined, I've created a trifecta of online visibility through YouTube, Pinterest and Google. (Which you can learn all about actually in my Profitable Pinterest Academy.

Well my friends that is a rap, I hope to be seeing your online visibility grow for you business!
