It’s About THEM Finding YOU

May 7, 2009 · Comments Off

 Summary of the Undressed Network of Blogs

 Real Estate Agents, Mortgage Professional OR any Business 

IT’S ABOUT FINDING YOU!

Through the internet, Blogs have the greatest power to CONNECT you to the most people possible that can become your CLIENTS, CUSTOMERS and advocates. Grow your reputation along with name recognition of your company.  It gives you a platform to educate and show others what you do, through stories, examples and pictures. It is about the POWER of our NETWORK, which has much more power than any individual blog or website. It is about people FINDING YOU.

Being found on the internet is something you can pay a lot of money for.

Blog has come from the word “Web Log”. It is shorter and easier to say. Blogs are now a BIG DEAL. A Blog is like a website, but it is very easy to change and add information, pictures, AND EVERYTHING you post on it will be there for people to find out about your business FOREVER. You just keep adding to it.  The last post is at the top, in reverse chronological order.  You are in control. Blogs are very “Google friendly” making it more likely that you will reach your desired audience.

Our network of blogs gives you an even better chance of rising to the top of Google if someone searches for your type of business in your neighborhood. We know what to do!  

We teach what to do, what not to do and how to do it.

 A true story from one of our bloggers: “ so I told him about the Undressed Blog idea for his company. He was arguing with me that there was no way he could get on the first page with a blog when they pay thousands to Google to be put there. Well, I wrote an article on my blog about his business, and within 20 minutes he was on the first page for several searches and sometimes twice AND above his paid ad! He was ticked but, he wants an Undressed blog and to advertise on my blog!”

 NeighborhoodsUndressed.com (a dba of CiUn – Consumer Information Undressed Network) Undressed, as in, Expose Your Business to the World! Absolutely G rated!

We have 3 different levels of blogs:  Blowout Blogs, Power Blogs, Extreme Blogs. Different prices, different features but all are TODAY’S way of advertising. 

Check out some of our Undressed Blogs: www.IssaquahUndressed.com; www.IssaquahHighlandsUndressed.com; www.IssaquahGrangeUndressed.com;  www.GigHarborUndressed.com; www.BurienUndressed.com; www.KenmooreUndressed.com; www.NewcastleUndressed.com; www.EdmondsUndressed.com; www.SouthSoundUndressed.com; www.PuyallupUndressed.com  …………It goes on and on. These are just a few.

In addition to promoting your own business, we provide ways for our bloggers to make money in other ways. The Extreme Blog could be a full time job and income if one desired to make it so. For information on all our blogs Call Larry Cragun  206-618-3724.

To be effective in getting readers to return often and to be considered their friend in the computer, you must provide something of value to them. What do people want to read about? Interesting things! If you just use your blog to do a sales job, they will stop coming to your site. Visit some of the other undressed sites to see which ones do this effectively. Those that give the most get the most in return. They won’t come back to be blasted with a pitch. Blog are a soft sell and one reason they are popular.

Name Your Blog

May 5, 2009 · Comments Off

WHAT’S IN A NAME? 

The answer is A LOT. 

Reminder:  in The Undressed Network, it and the content must be G Rated

 To capitalize on internet marketing you need to choose the name of your blog wisely. Remember Google can be your best friend.  There are many cities, towns and neighborhoods in our Undressed Network. That being said if you choose SanDiegoUndressed.com you are competing with 147 million other selections as Google searches. If you pick a more local name such as Oceanside, CA that has only 1.6 million to compete against. If you choose a smaller or even more specific name the search will be even easier to come to the top of searches even in a network.  If you are a Realtor you should focus on the area you are active in (or want to be active in) and choose a name that people might search for.

What if you are not a Realtor but want to market a business?  You could still target an area such as Issaquah Insurance Undressed rather than Insurance Undressed.  Or you could use Earthquake Insurance Undressed, there are not many companies handling that so your chances of being found increase. (Only good if you sell Earthquake insurance, that is)!

One our bloggers focuses on Childrens Charities Undressed and helps promote their fund raising and public awareness of the different charities.  She is not selling anything but helping others that need the services her blog undresses. Does she get links, you bet.

Consider these tips when choosing your name. Also, note that anything can be “undressed.”

Keywords are also important, that topic will be addressed in another article.

Training and Coaching

Training is ongoing, changing and updated often. New methods and ways will be tested, tried and implemented. Below are the main methods we use currently.

  • Training Website/ Blog
  • Online Webinars
  • Written Training Manual you can print off
  • Email Blasts with updated important info
  • Power Point Presentations
  • Examples of successful Undressed sites you can visit and learn from
  • Assignment to assistants/sponsors you can call if you can’t figure it out with the above.

We have been helping our bloggers for almost 3 years now. We have learned that different folks learn in different ways.

Some love our online training and tell us that is all they need. This sounds good, but we know tricks and helps that will make every blogger more effective.  We pass these along regularly. Success stories are helpful.

We have what we call super users that care about the network and offer their insights. They help with online training.

The success of each of the bloggers in the Undressed Network helps to build success for everyone else.
