3 Ways to Repurpose Your Blog Posts and Get the Most Out of Your Writing
You spend a lot of time crafting your blog posts. Let me show you how you can reuse all this wonderful content and use it to get more exposure and more traffic to your blog in three simple steps. Let’s get started.
One – Expand Your Posts Into Articles
Go through your posts from a month or two ago and pick a few that you could easily expand into articles that are between 300 – 400 words long. Use your blog post as an idea generator, then write the actual article based on the information you’ve already compiled for your original post. Submit this article to some of the bigger article directories like Ezinearticles.com, Goarticles.com, Buzzle.com and ArticleBase.com. Include an author resource box that invites readers to visit your blog.
Two – Turn Related Posts Into A Small Report
Go through your archives and find 5 to 7 posts you have written that are topically related. Copy and paste them into a word document, add a title page, a table of content and a short introduction. Convert the word document into a pdf and you have a nice little special report that you can sell or give away. I like to create these reports and then offer them as a freebie for people to join my list.
Three – Turn Your Blog Posts into Autoresponder Messages
Speaking of lists, you can also recycle your blog posts as autoresponder messages. Let’s say you have written a blog post with 5 tips on building a bigger list. Take the intro and each of the five tips and you have a 6 day email mini-course ready to load into your autoresponder. Just add a quick intro to each tip, make an offer for a recommended resource or point them to other pages on your blog that explain each point further.
Another easy way to generate messages for your list without any more work on your part is to use the aweber blog broadcast feature. Anytime you write a new post, it becomes part of an autogenerated newsletter that goes out to your list every day or every week. It’s a great way to keep bringing your readers back to your blog over and over again.
