by Missy Ward

Content Marketing 101: A Beginner's Guide to Blogging for Business In my opinion, blogging is one of the most valuable marketing tools available to businesses.

Hubspot's previous analysis of 1,500 Hubspot customers (small businesses) found that companies with a blog attracted 55 percent more visitors to their websites than those that did not. The ones that blogged also had 434 percent more pages indexed in search engines.

In addition, according to their Marketing Benchmarks from 7,000 HubSpot's customers, businesses with websites greater than 400 pages, get 6x more leads than those with 51-100 pages.

Although their information is somewhat dated, I'd surmise that the numbers could only be greater at this point.

Your blog will only be as effective as its functionality, appearance and quality of content. Move in the right direction using these content marketing tips.

Practice Your A-B-C’s: “Always Be Cooperative” at Affiliate Summit…

by Missy Ward

They say affiliate marketing is all about relationships. So, whether you’re attending Affiliate Summit West 2015 in Las Vegas (or any other event, for that matter), you’ll want to make the most of networking while you’re there.

Networking, however, is a rather overlooked art form. All too often – particularly those of us that work on the sales and marketing end of things – we can approach people too aggressively with unreasonably high expectations.

So how do you avoid those pitfalls?

A-B-C "ALWAYS BE COOPERATIVE" MISSY-WARD-AFFILIATE-MARKETING

I’ve spent nearly two decades building relationships through conferences, and I’ve never once done it by marching up to someone with an extended hand to shake, armed with a business card.

I’ve done it by approaching people, getting to know them, and trying to determine how I can best help them – rather than trying to see how they can help me.

My more organic approach has led to my contacts list being full of smart folks that I often partner with. So how do I do it? Read more “Practice Your A-B-C's: “Always Be Cooperative” at Affiliate Summit West 2015″ →
