Why Real Estate Blogs are not as effective as you think

So many investors are told to get more exposure, write a Real Estate Blog.  At one time, these were effective but why are they not as effective as in the pass. If you go to Google and type "Real Estate Blog" you get a return of "About 262,000,000 results (0.35 seconds)". So if you understand how Google works, unless your page end up on page 1 

or 2, no one will find your page. How can you get to page 1 or 2, you have to use popular

keyword and people have to click your link to reflect that you have a popular webpage. This 

creates a higher page rank. So based on the amount of blogs out there, it would take you a 

long time before you'll get to page 1 or 2. You can also pay to get on page 1 or 2 but it cost. 

Can your blog be popular on Biggerpockets? Yes because Biggerpockets is a popular website. 

The Biggerpockets blog is #2 on page 1 called "Top 35 Real Estate Blogs". 

So if you're going to spend time writing a Real Estate blog the best place, should be to write it on 

Biggerpockets.

@Scott 

I totally agree, I'm not saying don't blog but where you blog. An independent blog has a less chance of being discovered verses writing the blog on Biggerpockets or any popular site.
