Some Good Blogs Round The Blogosphere

Friday, September 21st, 2007

Being a blogger, reading others’ blogs is as important as writing your own blog is. This is not only to get updated information and to keep in touch with blogosphere, but also post best on your own blog. I myself when reading other blogs do not consider the content only, but the presentation, writing style, writer/reader interaction, design, new features etc as well. And this makes me discover a new thing every time I visit a new blog.

Now a days I’m much in Internet Marketing, researching and analyzing, and off course googling some SEO and Internet marketing blogs. I’ve learnt a lot from these blogs, like DOs and DONTs, strategies and techniques etc. besides that, what I’ve come up with is to develop a different writing style. Being a writer, I’ve always been in quest of polishing my skills, but while being in Internet Marketing, you need something more.

I’ve been reading many Internet marketing blogs for some days, but those, which gimmicked my attention most, were Virtual Marketing Blog and Jim Boykins’ Internet Marketing Blog. The former one is best in explaining point to point, while the later is one I’m in love with the writing style. Recently I’ve a read of SEOs are from Mars Domineers are from Uranus on the later mentioned blog. It’s something worth reading.

Not forcing but just informing visitors/readers here, that if they are looking for some reliable information that is written in structured English and can be easily understood, have a read of some posts on the above mentioned blogs. I’ll keep on writing about some other good blogs as soon as I find them.

Manual Review of Millions of Blogs: The Quality Demand At Blogosphere

Friday, September 21st, 2007

They probably heard the thought in mind that I discussed a day earlier about the quality maintenance at Blog Rush instantly, and I (actually) along with many other bloggers (probably) who joined the network have got an email from Blog Rush stating the quality control matter.

According to the mail within five days of launch the network is bumped with about 40 million blog headlines including post titles and the links to full posts and every morning is bringing a load heavier than the one at day before. And in the scenario where true bloggers are on the way to be an effective part of the network, some cheaters are abusing the system by running scripts to auto load the widget etc.

Encountering this sort of some other problems, Blog Rush team has decided to have a QUALITY check on the system by implementing a MANUAL REVIEW process whereby each and every entry will be manually reviewed by the Blog Rush team and all the fraudulent will be removed. That’s in fact a very good step but the thing made me more confused is the manual review of millions of blogs.

Let’s see how Blog Rush team makes this but it’ll really be a hard time at their end!

Rushing The Blogosphere!

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

I just happened to read about Blog Rush a few days back on DP, I think. Didn’t understand much, how it works but signed up to peep inside. Later it was Blog Rush everywhere, DP, v7n and Bloggeries Blog Forum. After “Blogging to Fame” it was second blogosphere activity I found getting so much popularity with maximum velocity.

Up till now almost thousand of bloggers would have blogged about it, so nothing much to say what it is and how does it work. In a nutshell a blog syndication network rewarding users with quality traffic and exposure, the only thing you’ve to do is to place a Blog Rush wideget on your blog.

The thing I want to have word on is not the potential of this service but the future of quality. It’s been observed, it got so much popular in a short span of week, and of course getting such popularity peak in a limited time will boost the service as well. The thing to care about is will it be able to maintain quality blogs.

Well, I’ll probably get this answer after sometime, and till then hope to enjoy some more readership if I happened to have!
