It takes a lot more time in the beginning and then it takes on a life of it's own - kind of like a baby.

Automating some of your efforts can be extremely helpful. You can always outsource some of your efforts such as the article writing and the link creation. Outsourcing is really not as difficult as most people think. As a blog owner, I feel that your time is really best spent coming up with new ideas for your blog and thinking of more ways to promote your blog rather than getting too focused on repetitive tasks.

I know you are a great guest-blogger. I wanted to do it as well but had some questions around where to start. Do you normally ask permission before sending them the guest post? Or do you just send the post and ask them publish it if they like? I see advantages and on both and wasn't sure which will work out better. Your insight on this would be greatly appreciated.
