As a blogger or an internet marketer, you already know that there are no shortcuts to providing rich and unique content on your blog to your visitors – on a regular basis. ‘Content Rules’ in the blogging world and no blogger can ever deny that. But don’t be under the impression that your content must always be in the form of articles or written words! Content can be presented in any form – podcasts, video, slide shows, webinars, seminars, ezines, infomercials, an editorial in a newspaper or magazines and so on. If you can use your creativity, you will be surprised to find hundreds of interesting ways to present your content.

So if you are looking forward to maximizing your profits with blogging or Internet Marketing, you must be flexible enough and present your content in different formats for your audience to assimilate.

In this post I am going to discuss 4 easy yet powerful re-purposing techniques that you can use.

1. Converting Your Posts Into Audio Podcasts

Some of your blog visitors might be lazy and won’t like to read each and every word in it and might like to hear it out instead. So if you can provide them a podcast version of your post or a downloadable MP3 file or some other audio formats, you attract more visitors to your blog, who would find it much easier to take in your content – on their iPod while they are jogging, while they are driving or from any audio device at their convenience.

By presenting your content in different formats, you become more versatile and dynamic as an online entrepreneur, which ultimately enhances your ability to cater to a wider group of audience thus bringing in more money for you!

Another popular way to make your MP3s viral on the web is by recording an interview with an eminent internet marketer or blogger in your niche and publishing it as a podcast on your blog – with a download option.

Balabolka is a free tool that you can use to convert any text into different audio formats.

If you are using a WordPress blog then you can use Audio Player plugin to convert your MP3 files into a MP3 player.

Or you can incorporate the below code in your website to embed a MP3 player
