I finally got around to launching a blog. It's up and running, but I have done nothing else.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do now as far as...
...registering with blog resources
...getting it listed it important places
...adding important features to the blog itself
...other marketing advice.
thanks.

once we get a blog up, what do we put on it? What do we do with it....
it's no different then walking into a room of people... either start or jump into the conversation.
whats the thing that you want to talk about?
What would go in a blog that you might not put on your website?
what makes a blog different than what you would put on a standard (ecommerce) website?
Your blog should be conversation about something which you are a subject matter expert on.
So for example... if you're ecommerce site sells UPS Battery Backup devices you would essentially be blogging about those devices at a conversation level. Most people know they need a UPS right but do they really know how much power their HDTV pulls and why that could be an important part of their decision making process when selecting a UPS for their HDTV.
I myself have gone to all blogs am testing to see if it will work. However I use a WordPress blog sort of on steriods which is a CMS system.
I actually am combining it all together will let you know if it works
