I would say, there would be a pro and cons...as the answer.

Advantages for integrating would be;

1) Cheaper and easier: If you are buying your own domain, to have both SFI and
TripleClicks together will be a better option. It will be cheaper and easier to
establish and promote your products and Company in one website. It will benefits
your customers too, where finding out all the facts about SFI and TripleClicks, done
at the same site.

2) Search Engines Optimization: Google will optimize those rich contents blogs/website.
By having both, mean you have the advantage of writing more contents and products
info. Current trend of customers, would prefer to browse a website and would expect
a related blog(s) written in the same site(s).

The slight disadvantages of having separate website/blogs could be, time you have to spend in writing your contents, adding and updating them. Customers will expect a correct, precise, and latest info., about the company or products you are promoting. Its not an easy tasks to maintain and update two separate websites.

To conclude (in general): For most companies, having their blog fully integrated into their main websites is the best option i.e. for your visitors, for your SEO and for your leadership positioning. But, there are some special cases where having a separate blog is your right choice.

A good question.

Two seperate blogs would be better than one, but do you have the time to keep two blogs running. A blog can take up a lot of time when it comes to writing articles on a regular basis. If you are going to be writing articles for two blogs then you are going to have to have the time to write or the money to pay others to write articles for you.

Some of the advantages of having two blogs running are you would be able to link them to one another. You would also have two web addresses to capture leads. With two blogs running different articles you would have a wider audience.

There is of course no reason why you could not promote all of your SFI interests on one blog. I would think this is how the majority of those with their own blog do things.

I hope this helps. I wish you every success in your SFI business

I write blogs every day. I will on occassion write one about SFI, and on occassion write one about TripleClicks, and yes, sometimes both.

For the most part I try to find something that is informative or interesting and just place a banner or link in the blog. If the content lends itself I will include more. For example:

I did a blog that had a golf joke. Within that blog I also placed an ad from TripleClicks about a subscription to a golf magazine, with the link to it.

Be creative and find a way to tie your blog to something offered by SFI/TripleClicks.

Good Luck!

Hi Chidinma,
As yet I don't have a blog, but am in the process of starting one. I've registered a name and started my first article, but not yet posted it. I have been considering this very question myself. What I have decided to do after a great deal of thinking and reading ASK SC answers to previous blog questions is to establish 2 blogs and perhaps even more down the track.

One will be a subject unrelated to SFI, but a passion of mine - motherhood and homeschooling. The other will be about SFI and TripleClicks together.
I'm hoping that my first blog will suggest to full-time mums that they can supplement their family's income by starting an online business and the benefits to their children of being involved in a family business. It will have banners for SFI and TripleClicks and possibly some paid ads by some mums who run other home based businesses as well. There will be links from home based business articles to my other SFI/TC blog.

I'm planning to research TripleClicks for products which may be useful to mums and children and promote these incidentally in my mums' blog and hopefully turn some of them into PRMs and maybe get them buying the natural cleaning products and such like.

Those are my ideas which I am currently working on, so I hope no-one reading my answer will jump in and grab my niche!

I hope my answer is some help to you.

A single blog can accommodate both SFI and TripleClicks. Since they are both interrelated, it would make writing about them in one blog much easier. It would also be more convenient to your readers who are the main ones you should take into consideration.

Even though you may have time to concentrate on two blogs, it would be less time consuming to share information about both SFI and TripleClicks in one blog. Promoting your business would necessitate your adding banners and other forms of advertisement to your blog. These can sometimes be a bit tricky so time management would be important. Be organized and make it attractive.

Make it a habit to update your site regularly and try to see the content from different angles. Always keep in mind which customer you would like to attract. Be honest in all that you write and remember to give credit to those whom you wish to quote.

Help your readers to understand why you are rocking with the best online business in current times.

Hi Chidinma,

If you are a prolific writer, and you have plenty of fresh and interesting ideas to share with your readers, you should definitely have two separate blogs. You'll be able to direct each blog to a specific audience and recruit the exact people you need from each site.

However, if you are pressed for time or struggle to find at least one interesting topic to write about each week, I would suggest you confine yourself to doing a single blog about both SFI and TripleClicks.

Focus your efforts on making this blog as interesting and as entertaining as possible in order to attract as many potential customers and new affiliates as you can.

I hope this helps

Hi Chidinma!

This is quite an interesting question.
There are some points peaking pro and contra separate blogs.

Contra more blogs:
* very high time input necessary for regular updates on ALL of your blogs
* articles that connect SFI and Tripleclicks are hard to place because posting it on both sides would be a negative double post (for those reading both blogs)
* traffic needs to be directed to more sites/links
* some visitors may be confused by having more than one site for the same topic

Pro more blogs:
* better clarity and comprehensity possible for specific content (content is easier to arrange neatly)
* visitors can find and navigate to their specific interests faster
* mostly only topic interested traffic with higher chance for selling and opt-ins
* more place for more content, more news, more info

In general, it doesn't really matter if you have one or two blogs - as long as you have a good and slightly flexible strategy and enough time on your hands.

For example, I'd take a strategy like this one:
First go with a general website that links with banners to SFI and has one section guiding to one SFI/TC mixed blog. Those two will be the mainweapon for a little time while feedback is being gathered. If the traffic to that blogs gets too huge, it suffers informations overload and there's feedback asking for a separate blog, get a new blog and divide the content.
For connecting articles, only post on the SFI one linking to the other blog indirectly (for more information) - while also trying to link to TC directly (difficulty in there: do NOT overload your articles with links, readers won't like it.)

Hope this helps with your decision and happy blogging!

In my own opinion, one blog site is OK for both SFI and TripleClicks.
We all know that TripleClick is our store as SFI is our business, so its no point dividing them and treating them separate. What we market on SFI is TripleClick product. Therefore it is sensible to do both together on one blog.
If you have different blog for each, you will have to refer people who vist the first to the other blog. Like, people who visit them separately will never have full understanding of what you are telling them until they visit the other. So, to prevent this so called stress, you'd better do them on a blog.

The best thing is to make 2 separate blogs, for sure.

One blog should be for building your own team of affiliates, finding people to register via your SFI ID#, where they could see what are the benefits of joining the SFI program and where they could decide if they want to join.

Other blog should be about TripleClicks products. Here you ARE NOT trying to find people who will work for SFI, here you ARE trying to find people who will shop online for your and your ECAs products (later on some of them might be interested into joining the SFI program, but that is not the subject here). So, on this other blog, you should post products from your own shop and from your ECAs for people to see what you are offering.

I would not suggest making a single blog for both SFI and TripleClicks.

Definitely one.

When you have a blog you will be writing posts often, as often as every day. You can easily run out of topics to write about.

-By combining the two, you will have access to more topics to write about.
You can write about all aspects of SFI and TripleClicks, the games,Wave3, Pricebenders, the forum, a2a, etc.

-It will cost you more money and more time to keep two blogs and you may not see the return on your investment.

-You will spend less time monetizing and optimizing if you have one blog.

-If you use two blogs, you will be dividing your traffic between the two blogs leaving you short of visitors to both.

-It will be easier for visitors to see the connection between TripleClicks and SFI when there is one blog.

Make your blog into a Marketplace so visitors can connect merchants and shoppers online.

Place your banners on prominent places on your blog. Organize the banners so they are attractive to your visitors.

If you cannot utilize banners, use the text ads to advertise your gateways in the sidebar.

Then start sending traffic to it.
Hope this helps!
