1)Wordpress Plugins – You need to have the right plugins that make it possible for you to keep your traffic comming back. Having the right site layout with the right plugins is crutial to obtaining this.  Think of installing the wordpress plugins as building the foundation for a large skyscraper.  After you’re done, you still have a long ways to go, but if you screw up the foundation, your whole building is going down!

2) Monotize Your Site For Traffic, Not Income – although many of the top earners have monotized their sites for income, they succeed because they work hard, and they hire others to work hard.  But even so, they have already layed the foundation for repeat traffic anyways.

 3)Build Backlinks – If you want to maintain search engine results, you’re going to have to build links directing people to your site.  And if the search engine changes it’s algortihm, you should still be collecting traffic from these links. One great place to put backlinks is internet message boards aka “forums”.  There are several other resources to build backlinks. Trackbacks is a great way to appear on prominant blogs

 4)Set Up RSS Feed Subscription Buttons - This is mostly part of your plugins, but you should have buttons that people can use to open up and save your RSS feed into an RSS reader.

 5)Set Up Social Bookmarking Buttons – This is an absolute must. people need to be able to get your content out in front of everyone else regardless of whether you do or not. You should be using some sort of wordpress plugin that does the job for you. This is crutial in turning your visitors into people who will in a sense, recruit others to your website.

6)Set Up An Autoresponder. -2/3rds of your autoresponder is providing content to your readers, letting them know about everything that’s going on in your blog, and telling them the information that they want.  The other 1/3rd is where you will reccomend a product.  However, so you don’t scare them away before they have a chance to learn to like your writing style, you want to start out more like 80% being valueable content.

7)Establish Your Network Of Trackbacks And People Who Request Them And Accept Them- Basically you want to trackback several people, develop your blog, expand into as many different blogs and audience as you can, and start getting trackback requests with every post you make.

8)Add Blog Community Widgets Like Mybloglog, And Blogrush.  These will help your traffic convert into more traffic.  It will also widen your influence and increase your “network”

9) Add Social Network “AddMe buttons” – This allows people to get to know you on a more personal level, and communicate with you in a more interractive way.  Your links to social communities should also be setup in a way that allows you to get traffic to your blog, and to your other social communities.

10)Add Interactivity – I’m not even sure if “interactivity” is a word, but if not, it is now, I could simply goto wikipedia and invent it… Anyways, your blog should be interactive as possible.  Add videos, and allow users to add video comments. Add audio, add a podcast if you want to take the time to do that.  Add links to posts that you’ve made in forums.  don’t restrict your users ability to interract to just your blog.  They will appreciate it, and they will return again and again.  The amount of returning visitors and repeat traffic you gain will make up for the ones you lose.

11)Start Doing Occasional Reviews For Various Products.  This will be where some of your affiliate income comes from, this and your autoresponderare basically your only sources right now, that and your autoresponder.  Grow first, earn later.

12)Free Report – Give away a free report for people that sign up.  Make sure your link is on every page, and people can click on the ebook link to access your site. Now give people the rights to giveaway or sell that report.

13) Refer People To Traffic Exchanges – your referral links will gain you advertising crdits.  The traffic is low quality, but the people that see your site are all interested in  getting more traffic. Give them a chance to download a free report on how to get more traffic, and reccomend that they check out your list of traffic exchanges.

14)Use The “Get Google Free” Ads Method… more on this later

15)Start Guestblogging, And Invite Others To Do The Same – Allow people to guestblog anytime they would like.  Let them know that if they get out of hand and spam your customers, you will block them and take away their ability to post.  Start to guestblog on popular blogs and share those blog networks.  Now you can promote your blog post on someone else’s blog, and reap the rewards, and your guest poster will want to do the same, which will also help you. 

16)Hire A Ghost Writer – This ghostwriter will eventually replace you completely allowing you to move on, but you should hire him before you actually do.  You might hre a few before you decide on which one you like, and you might even let multiple ghostwriters write for you.

17) Set Up RSS Feeds On Your Blog - these will act as content generators.  They will be promoting other people, but the constant content creation will usually be worth it, and keep your visitors comming to your site.

18) Hire An Editor – This person will edit the posts made by the ghostwriter, and submit them.  He will also be responsible for linking your posts to other posts.

19)Hire A Website Manager – This person will watch all of your traffic stats and clickthroughs and will make sure everyone else is doing their jobs. He will also find new people if the people who have done it in the past quit or need to be fired.

20)Hire a Team of Marketers and Affiliates.  This one is optional.  You could very well go through the process of creating another product and building your network of affiliates, but that’s only if you find this niche that you’re working in to be exceptionally profitable.  

21) Next blog! Since you don’t know what niche is the most profitable, I think it’s better to use whatever monthly income you have remaining, except for a little bit leftover on the side to automate your blog and move on to the next one.  Your revenue should actually go up after doing that, but the important thing is that it’s automated. After creating several of these automated blogs, you will be able to figure out which niche is the most profitable, and if it’s a niche that will maintain it’s popularity rather than being a dying trend, you can spend all of your time adding products and reccomendations and backend offers.

If  you learn how to follow these steps, you will be on your way to having an awesome automated business.
