Blog Creation and/or Blog Maintenance

Blog Creation

If you have a business, then you need a Blog!

• Establish yourself as an expert in your field, and build credibility
• Build trust by showing that there are real people behind your websites and your advertisements
• Get business-building traffic from the Internet search engines by writing about your craft or your trade
• Be perceived as being in touch with your audience by utilizing communication channels that are rapidly becoming common place for anyone who uses the Internet
  
  

The wonderful thing about blogging is that you don't have to know much about technology to utilize your blog once it is up and running. If you can type, then you can blog!

I can set up your blog for you using WordPress - the most popular and easy to use blogging software available. Set up from start to finish is only $125, everything included.

I am a professional blogger myself, and I have set up many of my own blogs, as well as sites for other bloggers. You can see samples of my work at the URL's below:

Get Fit with Barbie
Fit Forever Now
Heather's Fitness Spot
Freedom Fitness

Fitness Articles

My services include creating your blog from start to finish, and all you have to do is write whatever you want to write on the blog once it is finished. The WordPress software does all of the work, and you don't have to do anything but put your message out there in whatever words, pictures, and/or videos that suit you best. For $125 I will:

• Install the WordPress template of your choice on your blog and modify it as needed to attain your personal or business goals. I can also create a custom theme specifically for your site
• Install the latest version of the WordPress software so that you have the most stable and technically up to date version, which means no technical headaches for you.
• Install all necessary or desired "plug-ins" that will enhance the look or functionality of the blog so that your readers can easily navigate the site and search for information.
• Set up any advertisements or other media in the text or the sidebar of your site so that you can drive your visitors to view anything that you want them to view.
• After the site is set up, I will make any initial revisions or tweaks once you have had a chance to look at it and put up a few blogs posts so you can get a feel for how it all works.
  
  

If you already have a website or blog that has content that will need to be transferred to your new/updated site, there will be an additional charge to cover the amount of time it takes to transfer that content. Those rates are:

• $50 for the first 10 pages of content
• $20 for every 5 pages more than the initial 10

Custom Blog Theme Creation

If you do not want to take the time to find a WordPress template that you like, or you want to have a custom design made specifically for your site, I can create a theme that will be 100% original for your blog.

• I will get some basic information from you as far as colors that you like, any specific pictures/graphics that want to use, etc., and I will then create a custom theme for you around the parameters that you give me.
• The price for custom blog theme creation is a one-time fee of only $47, in addition to the $125 blog set up fee.
• I can also create a custom theme for you and just deliver to you if you want to set up your own WordPress blog, and the price for the custom theme will still only be $47.

Blog Maintenance

If you see the value in having a blog, but don't have the time or the desire to maintain the site yourself, then I can manage your site for you for a nominal monthly fee.

The more content that you put up on your blog, and the more that content is "search engine friendly," the more visitors your blog will get, and the faster your business will grow!

I have been blogging for many years now, and I know the fastest, easiest, most effective ways to put up new blog content (in text, picture, or video format), and I know how to optimize that content so that it is found by the search engines. It isn't difficult, but it is something that should be done frequently, even if the rest of your schedule is very busy.

For your Monthly Maintenance fee I will:

• Add blog posts to your site based on content that you either send me or tell me where to find, including product/industry-specific content.
• Make advertising and/or content changes to the site overall, or to individual blog posts.
• Search engine optimize every blog post to be found for whatever keyword combination(s) that you want your site or that particular blog post to be found for.
• Put whatever pictures, videos, or other media that you want into every blog post.
• If your content is about health, fitness, nutrition, self-improvement, personal development, or subjects, I will also submit each individual blog post on your site to the social networking websites Stumbleupon, Digg, and Twitter.

Blog Monthly Maintenance fees:

• Up to 3 blog posts and 3 advertising/content changes per week: $57 per month
• Up to 4 blog posts and 4 advertising/content changes per week: $77 per month
• Up to 5 blog posts and 5 advertising/content changes per week: $97 per month

Domain Name Management and Website Hosting (optional)

If you would like me to manage the on-going renewals for your domain name (the actual name of your website, such as fitnessdestinations.com) and also your website hosting (the actual space where your website lives), then I would be more than happy to do that as well, for a very nominal fee.

For only $10 per month, I will:

• Pay for the hosting of your website each month.
• Pay for the annual domain renewal for your website name.
• Keep your website updated with the latest, most secure version of WordPress.
• Keep your version of WordPress updated with the latest version of the plug-ins that power the website.

To get your blogging project started, or to discuss me maintaining your blog for you, just give me a call or send me an email and we'll work out the details. I'm looking forward to helping you grow your business!
