Wednesday Blog Watch: Metatastic!

by Sheryl Sisk

In the Wednesday Blog Watch, I’m going to select the three to five best posts about blogging from other blogs across the Internet in the past week. I’m doing this for two reasons:

  • To help readers improve their blogging by giving them the very best advice available
  • To demonstrate two key blog traffic improvement tips simultaneously - one: send your readers away, paradoxically, if you want them to come back to stay, and two: blog readers love lists!

    • So, without further ado, here’s last week’s best of the blogs Blog Watch - it’s metatastic!

    Michael Martine, who recently announced his entry into the blog consulting business, offers up some wholesome goodness fresh from the blog garden with “How to Manage Your Blog For the Long Term - Think Like A Gardener.”

    At The Blog Herald, Valeria Maltoni asks us “What Is Your Blog’s Best Pick-Up Line?” This post contains great advice for thinking about your blog branding.

    At Copyblogger, Brian Clark offers us “How To Write Remarkably Creative Content.” Great advice for keeping your blog content fresh and uniquely yours.

    That’s it for this edition!
