Really Quick Ways To Get Started On Being A Real Publisher

Posted on 27. May, 2010 by Ashwin in Authority Building

We always blog about little things in life, don’t we? We think about the easy ways and quick ways. However, did you realize there is a lot more to publishing than just blogging and selling others’ products to your readers? What does it really to be a real publisher – the kinds who would have a product to sell and the blog just does the superhuman work of getting more leads in? Stop being an affiliate now and think of being the real publisher. Here’s how you can do it:

Do your due diligence (Niche Research): I won’t be able to do a better job that Ed Dale of Thirty Day Challenge (First 3 Modules) when it comes to doing research about the niche you want to focus in. Pick a niche most people love to throw money on, pick a relatively smaller niche within that large niche (also called as micro-niche) and finally, do keyword research to get you the foothold you need to start.

Have a website and set it up: Needless to say, you will need a website to be set-up for selling your product. Of course, selling without a website is the famous war cry you heard when you wanted to be an affiliate. The game is played differently here; you got to have a website. Pick wordpress and take it easy. You don’t need an award-winning design, you just need a domain name and a wordpress backed website. Set-it up and have it custom designed if you have the resources – people, money, time?

Create a product: Head over to this little program on your computer that helps you to write things down. Openoffice, Microsoft word or even a Google Document and start typing away about the subject you initially did research on. Start with a Table of Contents (TOC) because it helps you give the document a flow and structure to it. Do research and write with flavour.

Market the hell out of it: Here’s the tough part. You will now have to hustle to bring in your new customers for the product. Assuming you started off well with the niche research, you should at least be content the target customers you are looking at do have the intention and the ability to buy. However, they still need to pampered and convinced. We covered plenty of blogs on Blogging Elements on how to market and there is a lot more information out there.
