As someone who does public relations for companies, I’m sure you carefully pick your bloggers for the pitch. Bloggers have to weed out the crap and PR pros need to find the right people for the job. The job of someone who does blogger outreach can be difficult. We both have difficult jobs. That’s just fine.

Along with Twitter , Digg , Reddit , and other social media websites , Google’s blog search can even bring in some great traffic to your blog. And it’s a great source of links: many bloggers use it to find other blog posts to link to when they’re doing their research for a blog post. Del.icio.us. Stumbleupon.com.

There is the odd exception of a blogger who springs onto the scene from nowhere and gains a large following, but for most people, that simply doesn’t happen. If you aren’t going to get some random growth spurt from a big blogger or an article hitting the Digg homepage, carve out the results for yourself.

Feedburner If you’re a blogger and you’re not using Feedburner, I first of all want to know where you’ve been, and secondly need to say that you have been missing out. For example, I use Gmail for my email, but I login with an @viperchill.com address and have even replaced the Gmail logo with my own.

For example, you might not know that I helped one newspaper go from a limited social media presence to helping them hit the Digg homepage over 40 times. More than any other social site on the web, with Digg you have to participate in all aspects of the site. Digg, however, is really hard to “game.&#

Those exact images (some of which I made myself) were saved by a blogger and added to their own sidebar without even changing the file-name to make it less obvious. The point I am making with this though – and the point that most bloggers miss – is that these things are not what make me successful. It’s not a lie.

John Cow is obviously a play on John Chow who may be the most well known blogger about making serious money online. For example, in the past year, I bought hosting from a 13 year old, bought a website from a 15 year old, and bought a couple of domains from a 17 year old. JohnTP.com is run by a 24 year old with a passion for websites.

For example, I’m currently writing this on a Sunday and plan to schedule it for Thursday. There are bloggers who have made a lot of money in less time than that and people who have taken a lot longer, but if you’re willing to work hard, I think a year is a great time-frame in which you can build a successful and profitable blog.

Set-up a Contact Page – Most bloggers want their audience to be able to get in touch with them so if you’re the same, you definitely need to set this up. I also nofollow links to pages that don’t need my link juice such as About or Contact and even things like my RSS feed. I would add some security measures.

As a webmaster / blogger, your goal is probably to grow your website as much as possible. When there’s over 20 links to sites like Gmail, Facebook, Digg and Twitter, it’s hard not to be distracted. For example, if someone purchased Cloud Living and wrote a negative review, I want to know about it.

I like to use an analogy with having a boyfriend or girlfriend to explain this example. He uses an example where he asks readers to think about their income levels over the last few years and notice that there will be highs and lows, but you’ve probably returned to a similar wealth level time and time again. That’s it.
