Some of you may know all of this but I wanted to put all the basics in one place. It’s simple things like this that have really helped me get my brand out there and rise to hundreds of feed subscribers in new niches very quickly.
Sometimes one forgets or takes for granted the basics of self-promotion. When I made the comment of basic self promotion, I totally forgot about the basic steps you outline that I just automatically do. No real thought is given to it other than planning out my route. It’s an automatic instinct to do them.For those who haven’t developed and/or managed a score of sites, though, this might not be common sense and it is definitely worthwhile for them to read this information. Very useful post. It was a good reminder of what I often take for granted.
Very useful post. It was a good reminder of what I often take for granted.Thanks, that was mainly the aim, I’m going to be doing a mini-series over at SEOptimise :)
Great basic article, these are all things I do on some level for myself, but as I learn and develop stratgies for clients, I tend to get wrapped up in some of the higher impact items, and forget these basic steps.
great post, you’ve laid it out nicely
@dswiese Great basic article, these are all things I do on some level for myself, but as I learn and develop stratgies for clients, I tend to get wrapped up in some of the higher impact items, and forget these basic steps.I’m so glad people could see that side of things as that is exactly how I wanted this to come across :)
i like everything you suggest for blogs but i think this article should be "5 Simple, Effective Tactics to Promote a New Blog" instead of "website". Most of these tactics - mybloglog, gravatar, blog commenting - won’t really work for most traditional websites.
Excellent article. One of the things I didn’t think about was the branding aspect of using the same avatar on all of the different networks. Thanks!
