How to Make All Your WordPress Posts Appear on Your Website

Many businesses, brands, and organizations use WordPress to run their websites. If you’re reading this it means you’re probably interested in marketing products and services through online content, especially blogs. Perhaps you even run your own blog or website to share your expert knowledge. If so, congratulations! You’re in the right place.

While there’s certainly nothing wrong with using WordPress to build a website, you need to be mindful of a few things. First, not all the content you create with WordPress will appear on your site. The second, you need to make sure that all the content actually delivers on its promise to be useful or inspiring.

Everything You Post Will Appear In The Rough

The first issue you need to address is that not all the content you post on WordPress will appear in the exact form you intended. WordPress is a content management system, which means it allows you to post and manage content online. When you post a new piece of content to WordPress, the system will automatically break it down into small bites (or “chunks”) that are easy to share.

Because of this, all the content you post to WordPress is going to be in the form of “Blog posts,” “Quotes,” and “Stories.” To give you some idea of how this process works, here’s an example.

“Blog posts” are simply blog articles that you post to WordPress to have available for your visitors to read. When a reader clicks on a blog post on your site, they’ll be taken to WordPress, where they can continue reading the post (or clicking through to another post).

The key takeaway is that while all the content you post to WordPress will appear in the form you intended, this is not necessarily the case for your site’s visitors. If you want specific content to appear in a specific way on your site, you’ll need to use a different platform.

Use The Right WordPress Plugin To Monetise Your Content

You can use various free and paid-for tools to monetize your content on WordPress. For example, if you have a blog on the popular personal finance website Moneit.com, you can use their built-in WordPress plugin to generate revenue from the content you post.

The nice thing about this plugin is that it takes care of the complicated stuff (like earning you money from your content), so you can just focus on engaging with your audience and driving them to action.

WordPress also has a built-in affiliate program, which allows you to earn a commission from the products or services your audience interacts with while on your site. This could be a product that they arrive at through a blog post, or one of the site’s many affiliate marketing programs (like Amazon Associates, or Google Adsense).

Many affiliate marketers use WordPress to host their blogs because it’s so easy to set up, and it has all the necessary functions they need to get started. Should you choose to use this platform, make sure to set up your blog or website with a business login, so you can access all the required tools.

Build Your Audience On Social Media

If you want to grow your blog or website, you should consider investing in social media. With a little effort you can have an audience on multiple platforms, enabling you to have more impact over your target market.

You can use various social platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram to grow your audience. When you use these platforms, you’ll typically have the option of paying to promote a product or service. While this is a viable option if you’re looking to monetize your content, it’s not the most effective way to go about doing business online.

The more effective approach is to use the platforms to attract people who have an interest in your content. For example, if you’re writing about the hotel industry, you could start a conversation with an expert in the field by replying to a relevant tweet, or sharing an interesting article on LinkedIn.

As an alternative to promoting products and services directly on your site, you can use the platforms to their full extent by setting up a Twitter account with a hotel chain, for example, and using it to talk about the products and services of the hotel you’re representing.

Regularly Post On High-Traffic Blogs

To get the most out of your content, you should post regularly on high-traffic blogs. These are blogs that get a lot of traffic, and as a result, you stand a good chance of drawing a significant audience. Just remember, the more you post, the more you’ll gain.

There are various tactics you can use to get high-traffic blogs to notice your content, like building a following on social media, getting featured on other blogs, and guest blogging on high-traffic blogs.

When you’ve established yourself on a few high-traffic blogs, you can leverage this presence to pitch articles to major media platforms like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The LA Times. Should any of these publications choose to run your content, your online presence will be greatly enhanced.

Build A Brand New Blog From Scratch

If you’re looking to improve your blog’s SEO and want to take advantage of all the blog posts you’ve established on other platforms, you can create a new blog for your site from scratch. The nice thing about this option is that you can get all the traffic you can handle, as long as you’re prepared to spend the time to build a following.

To get started, simply log in to your WordPress dashboard and click on the “New blog” button. You’ll then be prompted to choose a niche for your blog. Once you’ve established your blog and started getting a following, you can use the built-in monetization tools to monetize your content.

Publish Guest Posts On Staging Blogs

Alternatively, you can publish guest posts on well-established blogs. Doing so can help you gain credibility with your target audience as a thought leader in your industry. Should a blog owner choose to feature your content, it’ll likely appear in the form of a guest post on their website. As a result, more people are likely to learn about your business, and possibly, become loyal customers or advocates.

This approach is more effective when compared to simply pitching articles to prominent media publications, as you’re not yet established enough to command a high opinion of yourself. In this case, you can use your guest posting as a trial balloon to gauge the interest of a target audience in your industry. Once you’ve established yourself as a thought leader, you can use this platform to position yourself as a go-to person for the industry.

Take Advantage Of The Free Blogger Platform

WordPress is the most popular content management system, so it makes sense that the vast majority of professional bloggers use this platform to establish and grow their business. However, if you’re looking to learn how to create an online business, with the intention to monetize your content, you don’t necessarily need to establish a blog on WordPress.com.

WordPress is a free blogging platform, which means you don’t need to pay to establish or maintain a blog on the service. It also means you don’t have to worry about hosting costs, as these are covered by the service. The downside is that, like all the other blogging platforms discussed thus far, WordPress isn’t really designed for heavy hitters like professional media brands and online stores. This is where the free Blogger platform steps in.

What’s great about Blogger is that it was specifically designed for just this purpose. In fact, the platform was built with monetization in mind, and with the inclusion of adsense, you don’t even have to think about monetizing your content. One of the main advantages of this approach is that you don’t need to establish a separate blog on the platform. Instead, you can use your existing WordPress blog to build out your presence on Blogger.

This may sound like a big advantage, but it can also be cumbersome to have two separate blogs. What’s more, you don’t want to do this if you’re only going to be publishing occasional articles for your own amusement. The key takeaway from this option is that you can use WordPress to build a brand and attract an audience, and when you’ve established yourself as a thought leader in your industry, you can use this platform to upload your content, build a following, and then use this to drive more business to your site.

The Final Takeaway

To summarize, creating a successful blog that ends up getting you rich and happy is certainly possible. The key is to make sure you have a clear objective in mind, and are prepared to put in the work.
