I have another one called &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221; running on our client-focused real estate weblogs.<\/p>\n<p>That last sentence is important: I maintain one Scenius blog for &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221;, but I can echo it wherever I want it to appear. And it comes in like a blog, not like a feed or a widget, with full control over the appearance and with all the links behaving as expected.<\/p>\n<p>Why is that important? Because I now have a reliable source of keyword-rich dynamic content that I can share with other Phoenix-area weblogs. Other Phoenix real estate webloggers are free to use it, but I&#8217;m much more interested in hanging around the sidebars of weblogs run by my clients or future clients.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221; Scenius blog is composed of content that will be interesting to readers of any weblog in the Phoenix area. It&#8217;s a regularly-updated supply of new content for any weblog that hosts it.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221; Scenius blog is rich in keywords that will cause the blogs that host it to score well with search engines. I&#8217;m giving my neighbors content and also boosting their SEO.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221; Scenius blog consists of highly dynamic content. There are new posts every day, and old posts scroll off the bottom every day. What this means is that search engines will see new unique content on every page they spider, every <em>time<\/em> they spider, if those pages are echoing my Scenius blog.<\/p>\n<p>And the &#8220;Phoenix Area Headlines&#8221; Scenius blog links back to BloodhoundRealty.com.

Your readers win, you win, I win &#8212; everybody wins.<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Switched-On Marketing&#8221; Scenius blog does the same sorts of jobs for real estate and marketing weblogs: I give you interesting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/5967\/making-the-scenius-scene-im-prepared-to-share-an-entirely-new-style-of-blogging-with-you-but-you-have-to-hold-up-your-end\/#more-5967\" class=\"more-link\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wrote last week about the Scenius blogs we&#8217;ve been playing with.
