Around The Web Today…
I have decide to do an all out today…
Well, not really! But I still wanted to share some of the interesting posts around the web that might be of help to you or of some benefit! God knows nobody is capable of accessing all the great content and by sharing some on this pages I hope to point out some.
In no particular order:
- Blogging Contest, designed to help on blogger to revitalize her blog is organized by Max from Viliat blog, who is frequent commenter on this blog. I’m one of the happy sponsors with Expert WordPress product.
- John Reese announced Death of Blogrush. This one was a long coming and even though it was created with best intentions – it didn’t play out quite as well as we all hoped. You need to remove the widget if it still still on your blog!
- Jack Humphrey ranks Transcription Services in his blog post. And if you are using podcast perhaps this post will be a great opportunity for you to find one that will help you rank better in search engines. As far latest rumor has it – Google still can’t pick up the keywords from audio!
- Tim Nash is one of the best sources of info when it comes to Stumble Upon social network, just check out his Stumbleupon Algorithm post? And in his latest post StumbleUpon gets a change of Clothes he shares some info on what to expect next.
- Brian Clark, one of my favorite copywriters for the blogs shares some insights in his post The Four “P” Approach: A Persuasive Writing Structure That Works. Great information for those of us who never had proper English education! Not that ist is something to be proud off but rather being mindful and learn!
- Terry Dean a true Internet Marketing guru and superb coach, who I haven’t had a priveldge to meet yet shares insights on the latest buzz – Forced Continuity. We have seen it time and time again and I personally hate the concept even though I understand it makes other people money. read what coach Terry has to say on it.
This rounds up the collection of posts I think you should read!

Good call on the CopyBlogger — that is one of the blogs I read regularly, along with yours.
I never used blog rushon any of my blogs. I thought it was an ok thing but I had the feeling that it wasn’t going to last.

Max,
thanks. Also one note: I have changed commenting guidelines on this blog – please in the future don’t use keywords in Name. I delete other people’s comments in that format and will have to stop making exception for you.
I appreciate you being a frequent commenter but need to enforce the ruls.
Thanks in advance for understanding!
Alex
Wait – blog rush was still around ’till now?

found that blogrush post interesting. i wonder if any other services (such as maybe entrecard) will follow. i hope not.

Good to hear that BlogRush has finally folded. I also saw this one coming from long time. I removed their widget early this year and I regret asking my friends to join it as they will not fully trust me next time, I tell them that a new exciting online service has been introduced.One thing that I hated most in the whole BlogRush issue is that its referral system was bound to benefit high profile bloggers only and I lamented about this on my blog.
Clements last blog post..Nationalcallingcards Softphone Configuration made easy!
Clement,
I don’t think you should feel bad about referring. I did too and I fell good about it. When it launched it had a big hopes since John Reese was behind it and good promise. Idea was solid but as it happens sometimes – it failed. Just move on with the next thing. In 2.0 web it is hard to predict what will work and what will fail and recommending something that you personally feel good about at the time is normal because early adopter get rewarded.
Just think about it this way – if BlogRush was as successful as it was promised – your friends would be greatfull to you!
Alex

Thanks for the reference to the StumbleUpon mathematics. I had made a small effort to play with StumbleUpon, and never really understood how it worked. The “new clothes” post is interesting as well, I’m particularly interested in the “How Similar are You” widget. That’s a concept that would work on of my websites that has a lot of interaction between users.

Some of those posts from the other blogs are very interesting. I don’t have time to read all of them, but I will definitely give a few a chance.Justin@Airsoft Rifless last blog post..Happy Halloween!

Maxs last blog post..Contest – Help Missy to Revitalize G34 Media Blog and Win Cool Prizes
No worries Max,
I kind of figured
Thank for understanding
Copyblogger is a great blog. It always amazes me just how the blogging community has exploded over the last few years, who would have thought that wordpress would be so popular!

Good riddance to blogrush
Of course, I’m one of those folks that they turned down, so you could say I’m just bitter. I just didn’t like the arbitrary judgement. “Not enough original content”, but no mention of why 200+ pages of it wasn’t enough.
