The buzz may have gone cold but the PR5 link to your site won't :)

You read him back in the day, any reason you don't anymore?

 

I think some of the things he wrote about started to feel spammy to me.  And there's so much good info out there to read anyway, I had to cut back.

Money Reasons and mbhunter,

Thank You, Thank You!  Laugh

 

Jackie,

Great point, thanks for cheering me up! Smile

You're right.  So filled with info and links, I totally missed my own guest post! Yell  There is a lot of good info out there.  A little overwhelming at times.

Hey Buck!

 

good job on getting featured ;-)

 

However, you made 2 majors mistakes:

- you didn't include a link toward one of your article in this post (something catchy) so readers would click on it to read more

- you didn't include a RSS link to your site in your author bio

 

get this example:

http://seekingalpha.com/articl…..t-for-2011

 

this post was originally post on The Dividend Guy Blog (one of my blog). I got tons of referral from seeking alpha during 3 days (1617 visits from seeking alpha). Which pages where they visiting?

a) my homepage

b) the original article that was published on DGB

c) the list of best REITs ETF for 2011 (a link that I have mention in the post that was publish on seekingalpha).

 

bingo, the right answer is C!

FP, I've been following your posts with a lot of interest lately and have to say, your nuggets of wisdom are one of the best I've come across (for those who are listening).  

 

Looking forward to more of your posts!  (Sorry Buck for hijacking this thread, but I'm sure you'll admit, this is fantastic advice!)

TFB,

 

Thanks!  Laugh  Terrific advice.  I should have prepared a bit more…  Live and learn.  After my blog swap with Evan, I noticed his RSS and Twitter links, but didn't think to add mine into my guest post.  Doh! Yell  To be honest, I was half expecting John Chow to ignore my guest post request.  Silly me. 

Awesome tip about including a linkback.  Thanks for sharing.  I guess I was being too conservative.  Half of me was thinking too many self promotional links to my site would get rejected…  A great experience overall and even better lessons learned.  Cool

 

MC,

 

Hijack away!  The more the merrier. Laugh

just include one goog link within the post. more than that (plus your author bio link and rss) will be considered as spammy
