How would you like to take your blog from a Technorati rank 650,000 + to under 12,000 even if your blog is brand new? I know it might sounds like a rather incredible but this is exactly what I was able to accomplish when I have launched original Reciprocal Review Carousel.

In under 1 month my Technorati Authority jumped from 14 to over 300 and rank went through the roof. Why would you care? Because you have a chance to do same. Marco Righter just pinged me and offered to take part in re-birth of Viral Reciprocal Review, he adopted from my original concept.

Get the traffic and the link love

The recommendation carousel will bring like-minded bloggers together and provide real value to their respective communities. The whole web2.0-thing is about communities sharing their knowledge and what is common.

Why this will work

• It provides value through personal recommendations
• Links to your blog with linktext of your choice
• Backlinks come from within a dedicated content about your blog
• Rotating content will prevent it from penalties from search engines
• It is viral - more participants means greater effect

How it works

Simply follow these few steps to make this one working for you:

• Create a new post on your blog and start it with a few words about how you came into this carousel.
• Copy and paste the entire text between the red lines
• Check if all links are working after copy and paste
• Remove the very last recommendation from the list
• Add a recommendation of a blog you love to the top of the list with at least 2-3 sentences about why you love to read this blog and add a little note, that you recommend this together with a link to your blog. Here is an example:
