Multichannel Blogsite
Hosted Weblog Creation Service By WebSiteOptimization.com
Weblog Defined
A weblog or “blog” uses XML news syndication to automatically distribute your newsfeeds to sites around the Internet. Weblog authors post headlines, decks, and stories about their favorite topics, displayed in reverse chronological order. Weblogs make publishing your news and information easy.
Not surprisingly, weblogs are quite popular, with over 70,000 blogs created every day. In fact, Technorati is now tracking over 20 million weblogs, with the total number of weblogs doubling every 5 months. This trend has been going on for at least three years. If you don’t have a weblog for your business, you are undoubtedly falling behind your competitors. Wikipedia definition of Blogsite
Unlike traditional weblogging tools, MySmartChannels-powered blogsites integrate multiple weblogs for your company, as well as syndicated guest weblogs, and other information sources that increase your search rankings for hundreds, even thousands of relevant search key-phrases. Blogsites also provide an array of content aggregation services designed to provide a simple and effective way to create and maintain a formidable Internet presence. In short, a blogsite is much more than just a blog.
Blogsites are an ideal way to generate natural links the search engines favor, and take advantage of the long tail by generating a continuous stream of quality content that is automatically indexed and linked through RSS XML feeds.
