OFF Content: #DanceYourLife

The more years pass, the more I believe that Life is very rarely

A Luxury of horse riding 

When I am the one who pulls the strings of my World.

More often, it is like a Dance

Where I am Led

And Only THE WAY I dance 

Is where my Freedom Lies.

Business: 3 Key Difference Between B2B and B2C Content Marketing

Although you still sell to a person, there are some differences between marketing to businesses and marketing to individual customers. Both business-to-business (B2B) and end-customers buy to satisfy their needs; however, the specific needs and nature of the purchase process differ. The success of your content marketing strategy depends heavily on understanding these differences and using them in your favor.




This article explains how to build an effective digital content marketing strategy by highlighting the 3 key differences in selling to B2B and B2C.

Business: Co ma wspólnego tworzenie contentu z tworzeniem ubrań?

Pisanie tekstów na blog, stronę internetową czy platformy social media, czyli tworzenie tzw. contentu - jest zadziwiająco podobne do tworzenia ubrań. Z tą różnicą, że zamiast tkanin używamy słów. 

Ubieram osoby, marki i siebie w autorskie teksty, które, podobnie jak ubrania, są kluczowym elementem wizerunku, jaki przedstawiamy światu. Niewątpliwie, zarówno w życiu jak i w biznesie to, co mamy do powiedzenia, jest równie istotne, jak to, co w jaki sposób prezentujemy się naszemu odbiorcy. Piękny wizerunek marki, organizacji czy osoby, musi iść w parze z odpowiednio wystylizowanym i jakościowym przekazem słownym. Tylko wtedy powstaje spójny, wiarygodny i efektywny przekaz.

Business: The Top 3 Tools Every Blogger Should Use

'There is no love, there is just Google Analytics'. This was my first thought when I was asked to write a brief article on the Top 3 tools very blogger should use and once I started to study them thoroughly.  

Is it really so? Are social media only about numbers, traffic and blogging tools? No love? No authentic creativity and need for communicating and being connected? Well, fortunately, this is not true, at least not entirely true.

Both in real life and in social media a good combination of 'love' and 'common sense' seems to be what you need to succeed. Why is that? Let's stick to the social media and the blogging tools here! 

As a blogger, your job is not only to create a good quality content (the 'love' part), but also to make sure it will reach your target audience and, most importantly, that it will meet their needs. Much has been said on whether or not a great content is good enough for your website to be successful. The blog you are just reading has showed me...it is not. Content Might be the King, but it Has to Be Found and this is where blogging tools (the 'common sense' thing) play their part.

This is an article is to describe the 3 top tools I reckon as essential for creating a successful blog, be it a personal website or a business platform. Do you have to agree with me? No. And I bet you won't. Let me know about it! I am so curious to know what your blogging survival kit is. Leave me a comment and share your favourites!

The 3 top tools every blogger should use

1. Google Analytics. Let your love grow!

OK. This one is the most basic out of the basics. Even thought I believe it will never replace 'love', it can help your love for blogging to flourish. Why? Google Analytics reports track your website effectiveness by providing you with the essential information on your readers' behaviour. There are many benefits of using Web Analytics and it can all be summed up by a single word: data. Where your audience come from? What they look at? How long are they staying at your website? Are the traffic figures going up or down?

This sort of information are an ultimate must-have in any blogger's wardrobe. Why? Well, if you understand your audience needs and expectations, you have the key to design and improve your content strategy, and ultimately, your business. Imagine the otherwise, you have no feedback on your blogging efforts, and as such, no data to tailor your success or even worst, to react when something goes wrong. 

Have you ever heard the phrase:  'if you do not know where you are going, you'll end up somewhere else?' (thank you Yogi Berra!). Well, you will never hear it again with the Google Analytics tool. It is not perfect. Agreed. But it is for free. More demanding users can always turn towards more advanced Web Analytics Tool or even reach out for Internet monitoring options with an instant insight into all the mentions about their brands or products. 

2. Google AdWords Keyword Planner. Let people find you!

Keywords planner will help to make your blog more search engine friendly. Each search engine developed a formula for ranking websites. Keywords play a crucial role in all of them. All we want to do here is to make it easier for a search engine to understand what keyword your post should be ranked for. This will help your website to be placed among the returned results once that particular keyword is being searched. Simple? Very simply! And how do we to that?

Well, using the right words has never been an easy thing, both in real life and in the Internet. Keywords planner provides you with the list of keywords your potential customers might use to find you. The idea behind keyword research is pretty straightforward: to identify these keywords, or more precisely, to identify keywords with maximum traffic and less competition. For example, when you do an exact match search for: 'blogging tools' and 'top blogging tools' they will give you completely different results in terms of traffic. Just look here:
 

Now a moment of truth has come! I committed one of the worst bloggers' crimes. I haven't been optimizing my old posts for any Keywords! Ouch! But I will! Promise. Don't make the same blogging mistake. Let people find you, use the power of the Google keywords Planner tool! 

3. BuzzSumo. Stay inspired and stay connected.

OK. How do you find ideas for a new post? How do you know what is hot and what is not in the social media world? How to identify the 'red carpet' influences in your niche? Well BuzzSumo tool is here to help you out. It works like Google search engine by crawling and indexing blog posts and then presenting them sorted up according to the social shares count. The bigger social engagement, the higher the position on the list. All wrapped up in a very simple and user friendly visual form. Reorder your results by social network name and have fun! If you think in pictures as I do, you will love it!

Plus! Not only you can find the most-shared articles here and see who is sharing your content, this blogging tool also lets you search for the influences:

We all know how important it is to know the Big Names. Don't waste your time, get to know them!
Cons - BuzzSumo tool is not for free.

To the point.

You can save your love for social media and for your blog simply by use the blogging tools! These are my top tools, which one are yours? Please do share your discoveries and add to the fun! The comments section is yours!

Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness

'Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness' said A. Jodorowski.
I think people too!

Have you ever tried to approach an animal that has experienced a mistreatment from people?
They think all people all the same. They think all universe is NOT a friendly place (paraphrasing Mr Einstein). And so they can even attack you, hurt you, try to scare you off, only because they ARE AFRAID. This is a vicious circle of fear & unfriendliness. Can you see it??
If you do, good. You can break it!

People do exactly the same. I believe that FEAR is the main (if not the only) cause for people being unfriendly (let's use this general word). You may find people being rude, aggressive, mean. All this results from them being afraid! How do I know it? Well, it does happen to me too, when I am scared of something!

'Ultimate defence? Don't defend' said Byron Katie. Oh! what a truth!
Sounds ridiculous and stupid at first maybe, but if you try once, you will know.

Building higher walls and more powerful weapons will only lack you deeper in the vicious circle of fear & unfriendliness. Is your 'universe a friendly place' (Thank you again Mr Einstein for bringing this topic up!). Is it really?

2 weeks ago I decided to challenge myself to believe that my universe IS a friendly place (Thank you very much Ewa for being there for me and reminding me this!).

Two days ago, after a long long time of not having my own home, loosing a lot, having all the rights of this world to think that it is not a friendly planet, I was woken up by the birds in a most amazing home of mine ever! This is NOT a coincidence.

THIS UNIVERSE IS A FRIENDLY PLACE.

YOU are the Universe.

Even if you were born in a cage you definitely CAN FLY.

Is your universe a friendly place?
