Business / 6 Amazing Steps To Create Your Own Brand by HotnaijaMarket(m): 1:05am On Jul 12, 2017
Everyone loves to have a Brandedname for their business, blog and so on. Not everyone know what it take to achieve all this; building your own brand, growing it and becoming a successful branded owner of the products or services you are branding. Through this post we know what it takes to build a brand from scratch, growing the brand and being successful.

What Exactly Is a “Brand”?
When talking about brand, many people have their own perspective about it. A brand isn’t just a recognizable name and logo that distinguishes you in a crowded market.
Your brand is how people perceive you wherever they interact with your business—both the impressions you can control and the ones you can't. We each have a name, a face, a style, a way of communicating, different impressions we make on different people, and what they say about us when we’re not in the room.

Note: Brand isn’t only referred to product & services, it also include a blog or site base on a particular niche.
You can't build a brand without being consistent and maintaining that consistency as you extend your brand to every part of your business. Branded businesses have names, products, logos, colors, fonts, a language, and reputations to manage that make up who they are and affect how they’re perceived. But it all starts with establishing what that consistency is going to look like and the feeling you want it to evoke.

Steps/Method I use/follow As a Par – Time Blogger

For Writing Posts: I really love using my phone, though I have a PC (Personal Computer). I work 11 – 12 hours a day. There is always a truth, no matter the work you do, there is always a spare time left to rest, break time and time when you will not be occupied. No one can work non – stop, no matter what office you occupy/position you can’t work for the whole week without having spare time for yourself.

Webmasters / Five (5) Powerful Ways Scammers Can Affect Your Blog & Business Name by HotnaijaMarket(m): 1:43pm On Jun 17, 2017
After the many years of planning to choosing a branded name, growing your business and making your brand visible world - wide. Despite the nights of hard work you find out that all your sweat has been tempered with. There are a number of ways that trolls and scammers can harm your brand online, from attempting to divert traffic to slandering your reputation to actually stealing your sales and many others.
I run a brand online and I know that you will want to know some ways thereby Trolls and Scammers can harm your brand online. There are 5 powerful ways they can bring trouble and problem to your online Brand and that is through:

SEO Manipulation
SEO manipulation is considered a Black Hat SEO practice. Your brand’s name, logo or slogan may be inserted in another site’s header, meta tags or hidden within the HTML code. As a result, may actually end up ranking higher for a particular keyword than you do!

Traffic Diversion Schemes
Traffic diversion schemes is another way by which fraudsters, scammers and troll may be targeting you. Using your brand name as a ranked keyword makes search engines throw up results to websites that are not linked to your brand in any way. For example, someone can start a new website or blog called ‘BloggersGists’ with an extra ‘S’ and use it to do business. When a customer looks for BloggersGist to buy their products or services, this result could pop up.
However, the customer doesn’t know this or may not notice the difference, and may click on the first result they see, be led to a site that sells fake goods/services, or worse, steals their personal information.

Also, since other people are using your brand name in their marketing effort, it dilutes the control you have on those keywords, thus giving you less than optimal returns on your marketing investment.


Using Slogan (Cybersquatting and Typosquatting)
A fraudulent site may choose to use the name or slogan of your brand spelled incorrectly (thus avoiding trademark issues) and still end up being ranked higher than it should be.

Likewise, someone may ‘squat’ on a domain name that should ideally belong to you. For example, you may have registered the .com and .org domains for your business but not the .uk or the .ca. In such cases, someone else may purchase it first and ask you to pay a certain amount to own the domain. To protect yourself, you can scoop up these variations of your domain before that happens.
In one high profile case, fashion designer Tory Burch LLC won a $164 million lawsuit and shut down 41 cybersquatters with domains like toryburchoutletshop.com.

Business / How To Do SMS Marketing And Get Result by HotnaijaMarket(m): 9:09am On Jun 15, 2017
My research recently on this method of marketing, to some seems to be of low use lately. Though, so many people like me, are always anxious whenever our phone makes a sound, as that of an SMS or alert what so ever it may be, majority will like to know what message has been sent to them, so they read it at all means.
Still yet, people see this method as a low method to market your business, blog, and company stuff as a whole. It’s very easy to get a large number of individuals to get your message in just one click which is through SMS Marketing.
How can you achieve this?

Your primary aim of sending this SMS is strictly for increasing your customer’s rate, traffic or visitors to your blog or business site and more advertiser/clients to your company, business site or blog. When doing this, you really need to be:
Prepared: This is to settle all mind of doubt, you think of the positive and the negative side that your idea(s) will arouse but even at that have this mindset that someone out there is very much eager and interested in what you offer.


Make budget: Get all necessary finances ready before clicking the button of SMS marketing.
Believe: have a mind that what you are venturing into will have lots of benefit and it will achieve your main aim, just don’t rely on the negative side of what your SMS marketing will result to. People have different ideologies, way of thinking and understanding. So you never can tell what that SMS can bring back as a reward.

Make time: After sending the SMS, you are bound to hear few comments from the SMS you have sent. Be 85% open and sincere. Add your blog link or phone number attached to it. Sending SMS without a link (maybe to your blog or personal phone number) is like sending a blind SMS because you will lose the reward.


Note: It will be unwise to send SMS marketing to people you don’t really understand.
To a good percentage it good to know to some 55% percent whom your SMS marketing will reach? Like me I have about three sets of phone numbers I send SMS marketing to, I know what to send to them at a particular time and day. I don’t expect to send Blogging tips to a company contacts because I will just be doomed out for the day and that will result to loss on my part.

Webmasters / Use Interest Arousing Introduction When Blogging? by HotnaijaMarket(m): 11:31am On May 25, 2017
What do you need to do?
In your opening sentence, say something pertinent that will get the attention of your audience and that will directly contribute to achieving your objective.

Why is it important?
Your introduction may determine whether some people will listen and how attentive they will be. The introduction is a crucial part of any talk. If you really arouse the interest of your audience, they will be more inclined to listen intently to what follow. In the blogging , if your introduction fails to arouse interest, your audience will not comment or share your post, some will leave or think otherwise about your blog.

When preparing a post, you need to have in mind the following objectives:

Point 1: Getting the attention of your audience
Point 2: Clearly identifying your subject/topics
Point 3: Show reasons why the topic is important to your audience.

In some instances, these objectives maybe attained at ones or separately. But first, let us discuss how you can get attention from your audience.

They may be concern about work issue, family issue, and other anxiety of life. The challenge facing you as a bloggers is to capture and hold the attention the audience (reader) and they are more than one way you can do that.

This lesson is not a school, for a matter of fact I don’t know everything but with the little I know, I don’t want it to die with me.
Coming to know blogging is one thing, maintaining blog for a long time isn’t moi-moi, everyone wants to blog. There are some basic “things that bloggers need to know before blogging” like having ideas on how to type, read, write, think/comprehend etc but I have never seen post saying that you need to know basic Html codes before blogging. Why is that? Is it that HTML code is not really needed because blogger, wordpress and other platform had made blogging/site creation easier with lesser stress and no coding experience?



For one thing I know is that you cannot deny the fact that most or every design and behavior you want to work on your blog, is done with HTML code, then I really no that HTML is still needed, what about you?

Well, I shall be revealing some basic HTML code that you might already know, some don’t know how to place or use them. There are some basic important signs that HTML code work with, all you get it here.

Webmasters / Why Choose A Branded Name For Your Blog Or Online Business? by HotnaijaMarket(m): 10:03am On May 15, 2017
Like to be honest, we will trek together through this wonderful topic. For one thing I know is that you create a blog to make money or if you are just trying to create a blog, you are doing it to make some cash from it.
If the above is what you have in your heart then do not jump one sentence from this topic. Mind you, you might have come across something like this online, am not here to teach or lecture you but to share some piece of idea because we all have one business we have started or just about to start.
This guide is not only left to online businesses or blog but also include physical/offline business. The reason people buy Business name is to be known for what it entails or do.

Let focus more on choosing branded name for your blog, what I meant by branded name is your domain name. Does your domain name or business name tell the kind of niche or product/services you run or tell what your blog can offer or what others can gain from it? It very unfortunate that many do not consider this combined question but I tell you it plays a part. Consider names (branded names) like Jobberman, Ngjob, Gr8jobng etc. are all branded to what they offer and that is job, for about 75% Nigerian knows Naij is a News site, Bloggersgist, Loudtips, Zealmat Blog are tech/How tos Blogs. So, when you are in search of JOB, NEWS, TECH online you know where to jump to, and this site you can easily know what the site offers.

From this I will show you how to choose a domain name and also I will mention some of the popular hosting companies online that you can buy your domain and maybe to your blog when using wordpress platform. They also give free domain name registration.



Choose your blog domain (www.YourBlog.com) (www.bloggersgist.com)
Before you go any further, you need to choose a domain name.
Your domain name is important because:
It’s your “first impression” to website visitors
It affects SEO
It defines your brand
With that in mind, you should put some careful thought into your domain name.
Brandable over generic. A branded domain name is unique and stands out from the competition/competitors, while just choosing any domain name is usually stuffed maybe people might forget your domain name.

Keep it concise. According to research from Gaebler.com, a magazine for entrepreneurs, the top-5 websites have approximately 6 or 7 characters in their domain name.

Business / Do You Lie To Grow Your Blog And Business by HotnaijaMarket(m): 7:45pm On May 09, 2017
For some reasons I wrote this post to help and clear some bad way to blog. Am revealing some mistakes, lies and maybe untrue words or sentence said. Sometimes then, I fell prey to it or I did it to others.


Do not fool yourself by saying it is business wise or business strategy for it is not it is called lies, it spoils your profile and it will back fire someday if you are not careful. This words “what you sow is what your reap” and “when you start with lie you have to continue with lie but when nemesis will catch up with you, it will be a mountainous ruin on your blog or business.






Something’s Bloggers lie about

I know of a blogger that lied and I found out just after two days of studying what he does (I do not want to mention name nor spoil anyone’s profile). What did he lie about?

1. Traffic: At that time I was starting up with a new blog from scratch, I run the blog for three (3) weeks and I was make at least three hundred (300) daily readers, I publish average of five (5) post per day. I wanted to beat my target of one thousand (1000) visitors per day without paid traffic.

To cut story short, I got involved with this guy, who showed a recent prove of having over four hundred thousand (400, 000), I was like wow. This guy is making it, so I offered to help him with some graphic design for placing a banner on is blog for two (2) weeks. He agreed and after the stuff was done with I gave him my banner and link to place on his blog as my pay for the design I made for him.

Webmasters / When Do You Think Is The Time To Blog? by HotnaijaMarket(m): 7:35pm On May 07, 2017
Hmm, this article made me laugh when and after I was done with it. Why?

I remembered back then in my school times, whenever we are approaching exam period my teacher will encourage every students to take up a tasks to prepare in order to have good grades. My Teachers said “Night Reading” is the best because Night is cool so when you read at Night your brain is cool and relaxed but how true is it? Well, for us it’s some 75% true when you read and study at night.

So, can the same be said about blogging? Is “night” the best time to blog?

When is the best time to blog? If I am asked I would say ‘anytime and every time’. You may wonder why I said so, okay I get it maybe some of you will be expecting I say in the ‘morning, afternoon, evening or may be night as my teacher and other teacher would say.
Every one of us has our own way of thinking and I really respect that, but the truth is I think otherwise. Why? Examine this: it’s in form of a question any way.

When is the best time for you to breathe? Options

(a) Morning
(b) Afternoon
(c) evening/night
(d) every time


I know what everyone will choose because no one wants to die and breathing is very important every time, very important breathing is so also your information and engagement on your blog could mean life to others. So that how it is very important when you call yourself a “blogger”.

There isn’t a particular time to blog, anytime, anywhere and anyhow you can blog but the most important things in blogging is providing real, practicable and original information to audience that what counts, it stand out as a result.


In conclusion, make a difference in what you do i.e. make a difference on how you blog, how you write, how you post and publish. Do not copy and post, it will spoil your blog in many and different ways.
