Create compelling content

Use Google Alerts. Simply go to: Google.com/Alerts and type in any subject or topic that you're interested in. Google will send you news alerts when new topics come up about your niche, and then you can pass this information along to the readers of your blog.

When writing on your blog, think about your readers first. Educate them and entertain them. Your goal is to turn

a visitor into a repeat visitor.

Find PLR Content. You can go to Google.com and search for PLR (Private Label Rights) content concerning your niche. PLR are the rights assigned to content in which you are given the legal right to modify the content and claim it as your own. In other words, someone creates the content and gives you the right to take the content, make changes to it, and post it as your own. It's completely ethical and legal.

Use Social Bookmarking Sites. Go to sites like: Delicious.com, Digg.com, and StumbleUpon.com. Social bookmarking actually is the term that refers to users recommending which topics are most popular with them. Therefore, you can visit these sites and find out what's popular in your niche. Next, you can visit a few of these popular websites and get ideas for blog content.

These sites can also be used to generate traffic to your website. When you create a new blog post, submit it to Social Bookmarking sites.

Use Google.com. You can go to Google.com and type in any topic. Thousands or even millions of websites may come up. You can read a couple of articles on your topic of interest, and then write an article in your own words.

Seek out experts in your industry. Another way to find great content is to seek out people who have already positioned themselves as leaders and have valuable information to share. Go to these experts' websites. Opt-in to their email list, and soak it all up. Learn as much as possible.

Read Books. Find some books that are related to the topics on your blog. Read them, and I'm sure they will inspire you to write a blog post. You could even recommend these books to your blog readers. If you go to Amazon.com and at the bottom of their website, click on "Join Associates," you can become an Amazon Associate. That means that every time you recommend a book to someone and that person buys the book, you will receive a commission. So, you can provide valuable and helpful information to your blog readers and at the same time generate some extra income!

Always remember that the people who spread and share the best content are the ones that will be on top and make the most money with social networking.
