Asking For The Sale On A Blog

Posted by OpenSourceMarketer On November - 30 - 2008

Here is a tasteful example of placing an offer ad just above the comments area of your blog.

Take note that the reader must see the offer if they want to click the link to leave a comment. Also notice that the offer block is clean and eye catching. There is very little visual noise here which makes it clear what is expected. Asking for the sale just after the post and just before the comments is a good practice on blogs because, this is exactly the point where a reader is making a decision about what to do next.
