Join a Tribe And Get Your Blog Connected

Going Tribal is the newest 'in thing'.

If you own a blog you need to be reading this and then going out of your way to join a tribe.

What is a Tribe? Let's just read through the rest of this article to find out more and how belonging to a tribe can explode your online business and improve your creditability.

A tribe is a group of people connected to each other by their ideas and concepts who are all connected by one leader. Online 'tribes' are a way of connecting like-minded people who are able to share their ideas and posts from their websites or blogs. Other members of the 'tribe' will then leave a comment on the individual's post or blog, and share the content across the web, either via Facebook, twitter or other social bookmarking sites so in effect the post can be seen by many many more people that the original post owner could reach. By using a tribe in this way can promote your content and make it viral online in less time, and more effectively.

The old adage of 'word of mouth' leads to 'trust' and increased reputation, increased sales, being a member of a tribe in effect is similar by this marketing method, as you are being recommended by other members within the tribe to their social circle, against their integrity and social reputation.

The concept of a tribe is simple, you share your content with the rest of the tribe. They will leave a comment on your blog, from a marketing perspective this will push your ratings up with the search engines, the more valid comments creates more links which improves your blog ranking. It is also very important that everyone within the tribe all support each other by leaving comments and sharing each others blog contents helps to create a sense of community within the tribe. Similarly, each member of the tribe will support and work with other members to promote their content, posts and blogs across the many social media marketing elements available online today.

So the benefits of being a member of a tribe are that you have a captive audience who are willing to help promote each others blog posts across the internet using their extensive network of people who they have built up trust and respect with. Your posts have the ability to go viral without the use of automated software, but with real people. Facebook have a number of tribes, just search for the word 'tribes' and sign up and start sharing your posts and sharing the posts of others.

Re: Best Internet Marketing Strategy Re: Best Internet Marketing Strategy - Hi David, I agree about the Blogosphere. You have a smaller group that Blog, but do so on the premise that they think they should, but have never really considered the purpose of their Blog. Then I think there are a few SEO or Internet Marketing types that see Blogging as just another link building strategy. But the largest group of Bloggers, tend to be people who enjoy writing and discussing their topics of interest. Blogging is good for link building, but the true Blogger is a breed apart from the rest. They want to dialog, to debate, to have feedback and they are very willing to link to other worthwhile conversations that are relevant to their topic. I agree with you. These group of Bloggers obviously are passionate about their writing and together, they create huge conversation trails interactive and travel from Blog to Blog. But the evidence is clear with this group that loves what they write about. With comments enabled on a Blog and having a Blog tuned to a specific purpose you already have the evidence of original Social Media.
Re: Alexa Ranking Goals Re: Alexa Ranking Goals - That's great GT! What method did you use to put up the Entrepreneur Blog Network in your Wordpress Blog? We're always looking for the easiest methods to help bloggers who are not techies get involved.
EvanCarmichael.com suggestion EvanCarmichael.com suggestion - Maybe I missed it but I would like to suggest that a Blog be created to support the Forum. The idea is that in the blog you put in snippets of some of the biggest conversations with a 'read more' link to the forum itself. Setting up the Blog and clipping some conversations onto it wouldn't take very long.
Jen's Blog - Spam protection Jen's Blog - Spam protection - Jen, I like the Blog and just posted a comment to one of your articles. From my experience you need to implement some sort of SPAM capture tools. i use them on my Blog and it's been a life saver as I'm getting hit by spam atleast 5 times a day. I use Wordpress and they have plugins like Captcha and SPAM Karma installed.
Blog Marketing Anyone? Blog Marketing Anyone? - Hi Kevin I suppose you could use the same SEO principles on a Blog as you can for a website but the more content you have within your Blog, the better rankings/traffic you would receive. Would you have time to write a full length article with tips in it every day or second day to get the article count rolling over every week? I would also like to know if anyone has had any experiences with marketing blogs and the traffic they received.
