Today I found myself having a conversation with a friend about “About Generating Traffic to Your Zazzle Stores” when it dawned on me how great it would be if we had a list of all the places we could go to advertise our stores. Now naturally this would mean having people first willing to allocate space on their blogs/websites to allow their fellow Zazzler’s this opportunity in the first place. Then it would require those who agree to do this to have the time to commit to such a project, and thirdly having the no how of how to go about it.
Now I have been offering this service for some time now. I opened my blog on Thursday 25th February 2010 and to this date have written 298 posts. Only 64 of these posts are my own products. This might seem rather strange to spend so much time advertising other peoples products, however all I am really donating is a little of my time. But what have I gained as a result. I have gained so many new friendships in fact my closest friend on line is a Zazzle store owner. It has also opened my eyes to the type of products that sell through zazzle. Now by products I really mean designs. It’s created many back links to my Zazzle stores and also my website and blog. These are all essential things in getting traffic to your stores. But I have also had many people write wonderful articles about me and my blog see have also been kind enough to promote my Zazzle store in return. So as you can see I have gained a lot out of this. The other thing as you all know as Zazzle store owners is that you stand the opportunity to gain financial benefits if you are lucky enough for someone to click through from your blog and purchase something from one of the stores you have advertised on your blog/website.
Having said that yes it is a bonus if you are to generate a financial gain but your sole purpose for doing this should really be to help generate traffic to your store, through helping your Zazzle community and in turn hopefully they will help you.
So I would like to start up a group that is willing to promote other Zazzler’s on their blogs, and have their products promoted on others blogs in return. I intend to call this programme of mine”Sketchart26onlinemotto – Zazzle bloggers”.
I have set up a forum on my latest blog called “Sketchart26onlinemotto” and the forum is called “Sketchart26onlinemotto – Zazzle bloggers”. On this forum you will see a forum called “Submit Product for Blogging”. Here is where you will be able to submit your product that you wish to have blogged for you. I will then send this out to everyone that has joined our group for them to blog for you. When you receive this email from me you will need to blog the information on your blogs just as people will blog yours when it comes through their emails also.
There is also another forum called “Blogging Ideas” This is where you can all contribute ideas to what might be useful to blog and what you might be happy to place on your blogs for others.
There is also another section called “Introduce yourself here” which requires an introduction and your blog address that you intend to add others products to.
To sign up simply go to “Sketchart26onlinemotto – Zazzle Blogger”, Scroll down and fill in the “Sketchart26onlinemotto – Zazzle Blogger” form and you’re on your way.
