Many bloggers make a “link love” post once a week or so - where they share links to good articles they’ve read.A  They may add your blog post to that list if your post is good.

It hardly takes 5 minutes to shoot off 3 emails after you make a new post.A  And it could lead to a few 100 people stumbling across your blog!

Action Summary:

  • A As you read various blogs, make your own list of the blogs that make “link love” posts.
  • Then every time you make a new post, select 2 to 3 bloggers from that list and send them a short 2 line email.

If you liked this post, buy me a beer. (Suggested: $3 a beer or $7.5 for a pitcher)

    Ankesh - that is a nice tip.

    Although I would caution people to not abuse it. It isn’t good to send that email to the same place too much, otherwise you’ll potentially ruin a good source of traffic.

    A second note of caution is to make sure you are providing something that truly would be relevant to their readership. The more connected your content is to their readers the more your chances increase to making their ‘link love’ posts.

    Just a few pennies from my pocket.

    That is an excellent idea as long as you don’t get too spammy about it. You might want to mention the person’s blog so they know you actually read it.

    Perfect idea :) . However, my blog received comments without doing nothing but writing content. Later people found me through Google and posted their thoughts on my articles ;) .

    Anyway, I am about to start a new blog soon so that I will use “invitation” technique for sure.
