My ma.gnolia bookmarks for March 16th through March 17th
These are my links for March 16th through March 17th:
- WordPress - From Install to Pimped Out - WordPress - From Install to Pimped Out… the title says it all. Very well written and enjoyable article.
- How to Get Your Blog to 100,000 Visitors and Beyond, Step 13; Participate in Carnivals - Another one about blog carnivals - today’s post is sponsored by blog carnivals! The advice here differs slightly from other articles I’ve posted, but as part of a traffic building campaign, it has obvious merit.
- Link Building via Hosting Blog Carnivals - Another useful summary post about blog carnivals by Loren Baker of Search Engine Journal.
- How To Get Great Inbound Links and Connections Too - Ben Yoskovitz gives a good introduction to blog carnivals as a source of links. Again, though, he emphasizes that blogging is about connections and not just inbound links. Blog carnivals are an excellent way of connecting to other bloggers in your space.
- Five Questions (and Answers) About Blog Carnivals - Some very good information about link building via Blog Carnivals in the form of a question and answer session.
- Marketing Your Site on Yahoo Answers - Loren Baker elaborates on Matt McGee’s posts about marketing your site on Yahoo! Answers. Some useful pointers about getting on the service, helping others and promoting your site.
- Why I Love Yahoo! Answers - Matt on using Yahoo! Answers as a source of potential traffic. I should point out an obvious trend toward ethical use of social websites - Matt participates and drops a link when it’s helpful. Besides, links are nofollowed anyway, so there’s only the benefit of whatever eyeballs are looking at your answer - no Google-juice
