Do We Need Blogger Newspapers For Promotion?
So how do you promote a blog? Here is a unique idea.
I really enjoy blogging — dispite my fight against it. I can see where blogging does have a lot of potential and room to grow in the future. I do see some fundamental issues though that really prevent blogging from helping ‘the little guy’. A few days into this misadventure I started thinking to myself… how does the average joe ever get any readers? Short of tons of promotion (which I am planning to do)… there isn’t any routine and systematical ways of getting new readers. So I was thinking… why not Blog Newspapers?
Imagine if you could submit your blog to news syndication…a blog newspaper.. and they would randomly display your blog title in a few spots on the site and test out user feedback. If your article gets good ranking, have it move up the charts for the next days ‘big’ newspaper publication. This way every article you read can get a small number of reads to determine quality, and the good articles, will float to the top and be included in categorized newsletters going out to tens of thousands, or eventually even millions of people. This would give you a reason to write because your writing for an audience kinda like a column instead of writing in the dark in the early days. Everyone that reads your article has a change to start following your blog, and when you do write a A++ piece… you could get exposure to a huge amount of people. It would also give you a reason to write everyday — to get into that days syndication and try to compete for the next days column space and ‘read for the stars’. Since I have web designers… and programmers… and a whole staff around me… I might just have to build the first Blog newspaper
