see what they are doing with their blogs and check out their ranking

why is their blog so successful

If you have a business and want it to show up locally for people, add your address to your website and your social media accounts. Google will use that and start listing your business near the top (if you are still using proper SEO strategies). If you want to really boost your ranking potential, get yourself listed on sites that rate companies, such as Angie’s List. The more people that give you good stars or complimentary reviews, the higher your local business will rank.

Do Your Research: How many times have we gone over this throughout the book? Doing your research is the key to having a successful blog. You must make sure that there is a market for what you are trying to bring to the table. If the market is already saturated, time to rethink what it is you are trying to do with your blog. Don’t be afraid of digging deeper and coming up with a more narrowed version of your original niche idea.

Research your competitors. See what they are doing with their blogs and check out their ranking. What are they selling? Why is their blog so successful? Don’t be afraid to use some of the strategies they are using either.
