Jay you put up a nice point.

Actually in my opinion, whatever we do, whether Blogging or writing content, we are in the business of marketing. It’s the lifeblood of any business.

Nice post. Well, I’m quite new in blogging, so I can’t say that I’m good with that. So, it took me some time to get into blogging market)) MMO – actually I tired of that) I think content makes the difference.

I'll say content is king. If you don't have a good content, what is the point to go back to your blog. Just like a resturant, good renovation and advertising attract a lot of customer to try your food. However, your cook cannot make good meal, you guest the result.

I believe you can have great content and have virutally no traffic. When I joined EC a month ago people where like "wow this is great." I just wrote my blog every single day and did no "marketing" so I've 6 months of stuff that a lot of quality material people had never seen. I also believe you can be a great marketer and NOT a great money maker. Maki has said that's not really his goal so let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say its by choice, but doshx2 is not a money blog. So Chow connects blog marketing to money Maki does not.

Great post and point! It's easy to see in a lot of networking cases that other's expect that because you're a blogger, you're also good at marketing. The honest reality is that most of us aren't (myself included). Perhaps one day I'll get it all figured out and hit the jack pot. In the meantime, I'm just trying to dig myself out of my corner.

Tamera – I think everything is a stepping stone, but if we could ALL be great marketers, then wouldn’t a lot of us be screwed?

David – That is very true. But I don’t like the fact that people keep preaching “content is king” like they do NOT do any promotion or marketing. Content is king, but they have to find you to begin with.

Grademoney – Honestly, I doubt any of us can learn blogging “completely” because everyone is their own person and everyone blogs in a different way. There is nothing set in stone when it comes to “how to blog” just simple suggestions. Internet marketing is a continually changing thing and all of us need to keep up with it.

Political – That is very true. I mean, I do the same thing and I started subscribing to more and more RSS Feeds simply for the content. A majority of the time I don’t go to there site unless I want to give my two cents.

Eric – I try to bring unique content but sometimes my content seems to be NOT as unique as I may think. I mean, I try to come up with new things but sometimes it’s just a coincidence that others are talking about the same subject in that week. But thanks… hopefully you come back!

Marketing is what helps people find your blog among the millions of others. Quality content is what keeps them from going back to those millions of other blogs. Good post!
