Family Corruption In The Big Easy - Day 3

Who Gets The Attention?

When I was deciding on where to blog, I checked out typepad.com and wordpress.com. I had previously blogged with blogger.com. I only recently noticed how they promote their sites.

Typepad will tell you why you should blog with them. One of their strategies i s to profile popular bloggers. For example, Seth Godin is profiled.

Wordpress does the same thing. Recently I noticed that Blogger follows the same strategy by listing blogs of note. When I noticed that unitedhollywood.blogspot.com was listed as a blog of note, after just beginning the blog, I said, oh I see; I know your strategy. Lesson learned: Popular and good can be two different concepts.

We can all take a lesson from this when promoting our novels; follow your heart and your passion. Let the promoters follow theirs.
