Speedlinking - 13 September 2007
There have been some great posts written in the last few days around the blogging about blogging space. Here are a few that caught my eye:
- Shoemoney answers a reader question - How to make money from a blog with $100 promotional budget. His response draws on some nifty Google Analytics analysis.
- Wishful Thinking shares 6 tips for Dealing with Feedback on your Creative Work which I think applies to bloggers who constantly put themselves into a position to be critiqued (something we all struggle with at one point or another).
- Yaro puts some great thought into his post - The 4 Ways of Building Traffic to a Blog and Why Most Bloggers Pick the Wrong Method.
- Wendy has taken her one blog and launched it into a whole Magazine of different blogs around the one topic in her new eMomsatHome Internet Home Business Magazine. A good strategy for blogs who have some traction already - to leverage it and launch others off the back of them.
update - just saw this one - someone’s making a blogging movie and want to know whether you’d want to see ProBlogger in it :-) I thought they’d get someone in like Brad Pitt to play my part….

Hey Problogger,
I just wrote a little post about you. There’s a running poll on my blog to see if your fans would like to select you to be part of the movie. The winner will have a chance to be featured in Blogging the Movie. You’re up against Dosh Dosh, John Chow and Shoemoney.

He said that we should try to get as many subscribers as we can, but that is something a new blog will have trouble with.
I think it should just focus on traffic and content first.

Yeah, WarriorBlog is right, new blog will be struggling to get even a 10 unique visitor per day. I experienced this really.
Anyway, thanks for sharing.

Why wouldn’t you be in a movie? You have one of the most influential blogs as far as I think.

Thanks Darren, that’s the kind of feedback it’s easy to deal with!
If you’re voted into the film will you do your own stunts?

Darren, I think the guy making the movie will travel to your location to film you for a few days.
What a great idea, huh! Pretty soon you’ll be accepting an award at the MTV Movie Awards.

Brad Pitt? Somehow I see you more as the Johnny Depp type. ;>)
Seriously, thanks for the great advice. Finding you a month ago gave me the courage to finally take the plunge.

Brad Pitt?? Hhmm that’s set the bank back. But yes Darren, I will be flying all over the world to meet other bloggers.
Are you interested in being filmed if you do win? The poll survey that ends on 12/31/07.
