Hi!
Though I’ve been into IM and especially blogging since 2009, I must say your post was quite informative for newbies
There was a minor typo – (244×7) in the last paragraph.
Very clear and useful for new online marketers! In my opinion installing a self-hosted business Wordpress blog is the best solution for the beginners. Good content and quality back links are the key for a successful IM.
