Hi Ernst - great question, and one that I asked myself last year when I signed up with SFI. I've since written a couple of blog posts about different ways I've used my blog to promote SFI, so I'll put a few quips from those below.
First, think of your blog as your "Ground Zero," the platform you'll use to reach out to other networking and social media sites. So once you write something about SFI and post it to your blog, add relevant photos that you can use on Pinterest.
Since you're using the blog to promote SFI, you can use images from SFI's marketing tools, images from products in TripleClicks or even create your own images. Then make sure each image links back to the appropriate section or product of SFI.
You can also take your blog post and create a video from it. Upload that video to YouTube and add the link back to your blog post in the video description, and embed the video into your blog post.
Once your blog post has some good images and a video, then you share that blog post to some high traffic social bookmarking sites.
The key thing to remember when you're starting a new blog and promoting your business at the same time is that you're looking to solve people's problems. Essentially, your blog is your tool to providing answers to people's questions and showing them products and services that will help to answer those questions.
And some of the best ways to find out what questions people are asking and the problems they need solved is to go to question and answer sites, like Yahoo! Answers and Answers.com
When you answer their questions, you can provide a link back to your blog that goes into more detail about how you and SFI can solve their problems, either by helping them learn how to make more money or showing them products from TripleClicks that will help them.
Then be sure to share your blog with your downline so they can duplicate what you do with their own blogs.
When you use blog this way, you're actually creating a fantastic tool to (1) solve people's problems; (2) promote SFI as the answer; (3) recruit new affiliates to your downline; (4) teach your downline how to do the same things you do.
I hope this helps!
