Find something news-worthy about your blog, and draft a press release around it. Aim your release at getting reporters interested in doing a follow up story - you need a ‘hook’ and an ‘angle’. When you’re done, distribute your press release to sites like PR Web which not only give you publicity but also a […]

While I was doing Dr. Mani’s blogathon, I got an inkling of just how powerful it can be to have multiple bloggers writing on a specific topic (or for a specific cause) at the same time. Since then an idea has been bubbling around the base of my skull and has started to surface into […]

Make a ‘newsy’ blog post; preferably something controversial or provocative and mention it on forums to bring a surge of blog visitors. Post a ‘curiosity’ message with a headline like “Have you read this news about __ ?” Refer to your post but do NOT give out all details, just hint about how important it […]

I posted about BlogRush over the weekend and wanted to share an update. I actually removed the widget from this blog earlier today for two reasons: 1) it was causing pages to load slowly and 2) the links contained in the widget are largely beyond my control. Both of these reasons are founded […]

I’ll continue to promote Dr. Mani’s good works, but this is the last ‘official’ post for my part of the blogathon.
It’s been a great experience and I hope it helped a little bit toward Dr. Mani’s goal of raising $50, 000 for the kids.
Here’s what I learned from this experience:
* When you are united around […]

RSS is a powerful technology that can help you build traffic and deepen your relationship with your prospects, but few Internet marketers understand it. If you are not using RSS in your marketing arsenal, the best place to start is by becoming a consumer. Set up an […]

A few days ago, I started using Twitterfeed to automatically post new Daily Marketing Ace blog posts to my Twitter timeline. It’s a great tool. Anything that allows me to ’set and forget’ is a big plus in my mind.
To use Twitterfeed all you need to do it open an account and set up your […]

Trackback is one of those things that is hard to get your brain around. But it’s really not that complicated.
By using trackack, you can comment on another blogger’s blog by posting to your own blog. After you post, your blog tool will ‘ping’ the other blog to let it know that someone has continued the […]

One thing that bloggers love is to have lots of comments on their posts. Or viewed from the flip side, one thing we hate is to post something and then have zero responses.
If you want to build readership for your own blog, start by helping other bloggers get what they want. Visit their site and […]

I’m surprised at how many participants in the Heart Kids Blogathon either have comments disabled or require registration before allowing people to post comments. This is crazy! One of the core defining features of a blog is comments. It allows people to interact with you and helps you build a dynamic community.
Blogs are way more […]
