Creating Slideshow :

If you feel that the above point is not for you, then I think this is best for you. You can easily create a slideshow with you article. Use tools like Microsoft PowerPoint. If you have version 2007 or above then you can even convert them to video. You can also use free services like slideshare to create amazing online presentations. You can also embed slideshare presentations to wordpress blogs or websites.

How to create an attractive slideshow.

  • Use attractive images and banners.
  • Use your heading and subheading as different parts of show.
  • Try to list you notes in points ( bullets or numbering ).
  • Add good background music.

Build Backlinks From Authority Websites

Their may be many articles which you might have created just for your first day readers ( visitors who saw your post on the first day ). I mean the topic came into your mind and you wanted to write it down and you did so. But then you hardly received 100 plus visitors to that post. And then your hard work received no more comments and visitors ever. But certain times such articles comes into popularity.

For Example : I created a post on ” Megaupload Is Now Closed “. When I created that post it hardly received 10 to 20 visitors on first day, but then from fifth day when world came to know about it, my post received more than 700+ visitors per day for the next six days. But as the time changes I had to remove that post due to Panda penalty fear. ( My article length was less than 350 words ).

Repurpose Blog Posts To Outrank Your Competitors

Want any proof : Then just Google for ” Standard Theme Review “. I am sure I will stand on first page. I am outranking others with the article crafted on 19th of august.

Why its easy to rank higher with old contents. Below are the three simple reasons

  • It might already have good quality back-links.
  • It has been shared lot of time on social sites. Google consider Social signal.
  • Its been already indexed by search engines.

How to dominate :
