Good post and idea of a monthly 20 blogs to watch. My blog deals with independent filmmaking, directing and screenwriting. Hope this works ’cause I could always use the readership.

Thanks for the post. I was searching for some blog promotion tips for my Philadelphia Eagles Blog and ended up here. I couldn’t agree with you more. The best way to build up a good blog is to make the blog interesting and useful with content(who would of guessed). Anyhow thanks. I’m gonna go think of something new to write about.

Hmm interesting.
my blog is just basically a collection of my thoughts, which can be pretty random….. lots of ranting and raving (which is entertaining to read, or so i hear), some stuff about metal, and any other thoughts i might have
im hoping this adds to my (very) meagre readership

I have a great new blog that features okara, a little-known soy by-product that could solve the obesity problem that plagues most first-world countries.

I have written 8 or 10 great articles on the subject, a couple that are extremely funny according to the few who have read them).

The one I like the best is a Dr. Seuss style poem that starts:
Oh, what you can do with okara

You can whip up some pancakes,
that’s what you can do.
You can stew up some soup,
or soup up some stew.

It goes on from there.

The point is that the more I write, the deeper they all get buried before anyone has a chance to see them.

So how do keep your blog fresh for repeat visitors, and still have your great articles where new visitors can see them?

As the founder of GlobalTruth.org, I encounter historical film of overwhelmingly significance today, and I have spend a lot of time regularly adding content to the relatively new site. Additionally, on my personal video blog at Michael.WoodsBlog.us, I follow and discus issues related to world peace and war, politics and economics, human and social rights, foreign policy and the New World Order. See the best independent documentaries, Democracy Now and Noam Chomsky Videos, and other issues of Global Truth.

The concept is simple. Write well, write about contemporary topics, and write FOR others. No one wants to read about subjects that are “all about you”. They go out to the internet looking for knowledge and help. What goes around comes around.

I think the important thing is to also be novel in your approach to certain things. Very often one tends to write about something popular and wonders why the hell is no one reading it. Well of course no one is reading it because there are five hundred other sites that say the exact same thing. It is one thing to write often, and write well, but the key is to bring something new to the table and frankly, most bloggers are still in the ‘write about my latest jewellery acquisition” stage. Not that there is anything inherently wrong with it, but who on earth would want to read it?

Promotion is difficult unless you want to pony up some cash. I use friends and every other means possible, so please try to check out the blog. Tell your friends, tell your family, tell your neighbors. It gets good reviews from those who read it, so hopefully the groundswell will increase.

I try to promote my site. It’s been online since June 1999, so I do get a fair amount of traffic because of it’s age but like you said, I post at least 3-4 times per week and my content is pretty robust, so as the saying goes, if you post it, they will come and now that I commented here, maybe a few more will

Oddly Zen is my blog, a thought experiment that started in 1994 and has really grown recently as I update it more regularly and use it more for expression than a collection of copy-paste-comment stuff from the ‘net. I have been writing a lot more — poetry, life, etc. Check it out. Thanks.

Our Project Simplify blog has lots of good writing and useful content. We post regularly, and try to make every post useful for folks looking to simplify and be more organized in their business and personal lives. Also, I think the blog is pleasing to the eye, and a good example of a customized, integrated WordPress blog. (We have PHPList, Gallery, and Microshop integrated, among other things.)

If you are still considering sites for a bit of free promotion, we would love a link. I’ve added a link to Weblog Tools Collection on our Links page.
