Theres a great new feature in Digg that gives you the ability to automatically post entries from your blogs RSS feed into the syste.
Simply log in as usual. Go to your account settings and click on IMPORT FEED in the left hand menu. You then have to authenticate your feed by posting a new entry containing a comment and voila.
Ive recently been introduced to Eight Fold Logic Linker, a new online service that plans to match content publishers with receptive content authors.
The premise is this. You have good content and the ability to generate more content for specific markets so you set up your profile outlining your websites and topic of focus. Publishers can log in and enter their respective criteria. Both parties then get introduced to each other and communication can begin to fulfill publishers content requirements.
The system seems pretty comprehensive (if a little laborious) but my biggest issue is the lack of subscribers (the reason for this post).
If you’re looking for new content or are keen to get your content out there then give the Eight Fold Logic Linker a try.
How many SEO copywriters does it take to change a lightbulb, light bulb, bulb, lamp, light, eco-bulb, bulbs, fluorescent tubes?
lolz
Some of my {foo}.wordpress.com sites have been deleted for apparently being ‘advertising’ – an issue im not happy about as i purposefully made them not commercial and topical with links out to independent non-affiliated sites and resources and despite my appeals to this effect I’ve been told they wont be reactivated.
So from today onwards I’m moving everything to Blogspot.com which is a bit more friendly (and as a Google product has inherited Domain Authority). This task has been made much easier through the use of this online tool which takes an exported site from wordpress.com and converts it for use on blogspot.
Happy Days!
If you’re heavily into SEO and link building then you should be into content aggregation and Guest Posting is a great way of not only getting your content out there but also a way of building your brand (and the brand of your clients). If you don’t know what guest posting is then its simply the act of having an article posted on a 3rd party website.
There are pleanty of guides to how to effectively guest post out there and key to this is tailoring what you have to say around what the target blogs community wants to read so I’d even go so far as to say you’d be better of writing completely unique content for this purpose.
Theres a new resource in town created (I think) by the world famous Anne Smarty and this is myblogguest.com. It’s basically a forum of publishers and SEO’s/writers who are looking for their opposite party within the guest post relationship.
The main reason for this post is to encourage UK bloggers and SEO’s to get involved as at the moment its mainly USA focused and the good ol’ UK needs to represent!
If you want a guest post from me then look me up on there.
njoy.
With so many new features, im gonna spend some serious time going through the new version of WordPress which was launched today!
Like McDonalds…I’m Lovin’ It.
Ok, so my re-created blog has been live for around 2 weeks now after the deletion of the original site and I have to say that since I moved to WordPress I’ve never encountered so much spam. I’m running at over 100 spam messages in just a few days… starting with an influx from day 1. It seems that spammers out there are targeting the Hello World post trying to get around sites without Askimet running… If you’re running WordPress and have a significant spam issue then I suggest choosing another platform as, like I said, WordPress is a Spam Magnet!
topseo.org has featured my article on how to get more than 1000 baclkinks listed from Yahoo Site Explorer (I’ll post a link once I’ve reinstated the page). The post was placed at position #47 and is amongst such names as Dave Naylor, Marketing Pilgrim, CopyBlogger, SEOMoz, Matt Cutts, Shoe Money, Grey Wolf and Bruce Clay… great company indeed :)

(edited to preserve inbound link juice:)
It’s really great when people you don’t know can see the value in what you’re doing and today was such a day. I received a nice little email about my Glastonbury post where I mentioned buying walking boots in place of wellies. It said something along the lines of…
“shame you’ve already bought some walking boots as I’d have given you a pair in exchange for a link”
As a died in the wool Yorkshire man, I couldn’t resist a freebie so I quickly emailed Adam from Fitness Footwear and opened expressed my interest.
It seems that Adam is using product bribes as a way of increasing his serps for the term ‘walking boots’ (amongst others), approaching blog owners like me and offering a sly bribe of some free equipment in exchange for some juicy links.
Needless to say, this post is the result (let’s throw in another reference for walking boots just for good measure lol) however it begs the question…
“Why don’t other product suppliers offer goods in exchange for marketing assistance?”
In my previous life, as owner of a small web studio, I’m no stranger to blagging some freebies from the occasional customer. yet in the realm of online marketing with millions of casual bloggers creating masses of content on a daily basis, such an approach could yield massive results. Sure, you have to cherry pick the brightest and best of blog owners, the articles need to be well written and come from authoritive sources, and you’re offer has to be tempting enough for a bite, but this is no different from ‘obtaining links’ for cash.
Where it does have the advantage is that its a more personal relationship and instead of a couple of pounds spent buying some dodgy links from an Indian blog network, you could get bigger and better product placement reviews from a more Google friendly sources.
Adam also mentions that It’s also worth mentioning that bloggers have been so impressed with Fitness Footwear that they’ve bought products from us, essentially making our money back on the freebies that were sent out in the first place.
So if you’re a marketer working for a product based company consider throwing some freebies at worthwhile bloggers… you never know, it could be the trust/authority/juice you need to top the rankings.
I’ll post a picture of my new walking boots when they turn up next week shoe money stylee :)
…and thanks for the bribe Adam.
