someone recently asked me why I have so many seperate blogs, especially one’s related to internet marketing, when I could easily have one blog with seperate “Categories” instead.

It’s a good question, and I had to think a little while before answering.

The obvious downside is that I need to post to all of them on a regular basis which is time consuming.

It’s also necessaty for me to do SEO and marketing work to promote them all and get traffic, rather than just one, but that’s something which can be turned in to a “process” and outsourced, so it’s not a “biggy” imho.

Having one blog with multiple categories would also mean that blog would get higher traffic overall and a higher alexa rank, therefor it would also be likely to rank better in the SERP’s and potentially get more traffic as a result.

So to a degree I do regret the way I’ve set up my different blogs to cover different “topics” within the internet marketing “niche” and if I was starting fresh I would consider doing things differently.

I’m just claiming my blog on Technorati,

Technorati Profile

If you’re wondering why you should take the time to claim your blog on Technorati, it’s quite simple, you’ll get extra visitors to your site,which is always a good thing, and they’re likely to be pretty targeted visitors, people looking for exactly what you’re blog is about, so the best kind of visitors you can get!

It only takes a few minutes to do and you can add the Technorati widget to your sidebar which adds a whole bunch of extra keyword based tags to your blog.

There’s also the “social proof” aspect, as the widget can display your Technorati “Rank” and the higher it gets the more likley people are to see you as an expert in your field.

If you haven’t claimed yours yet, check out the video I made on BlogTactics to see how:

Why You Should Claim Your Blog On Technorati

the video’s not very long and it shows you how to go through the whole process, including how to add the widget to your sidebar, so go get it done already!
