Using Google’s Blog Search
Posted 9 October, 2007 in Google
One of the handiest tools at my disposal (and yours too) for finding affiliate sales and marketing resources is Google’s Blog Search:
This search method helps you to keep abreast of the latest happenings in your chosen field of interest, as often information appears on a blog before it appears on a website.
Some of the other blog engines, such as Technorati, also have a specialized search feed that allows you to have up-to-date info in your inbox at all times.
Using various tools such as these will definitely help both in researching and developing your marketing strategy for the affiliate products you sell.
