Post edited 4:52 pm – February 4, 2012 by Kraig @ Young, Cheap Living
Hi Everyone,
On the 2 month anniversary of my blog's existence, I'm joining the Yakezie challenge. I'm Kraig. I'm 27 years old, single, a young professional in the internet marketing industry and I live in Minnesota. I grew up as a big spender and not until a couple of years ago, did I wake up. Well, I really woke up. I'm a personal finance geek today and I am so passionate that I had to start a blog. I was inspired by what was going on online in this niche and I'm excited to go forward from here. I want to do great things.
I'd love it if you all could get a chance to check out my blog, Young, Cheap Living at http://www.youngcheapliving.com. I look forward to meeting all of you and getting to know you! Also, if you have tips and/or advice on getting started as a member of the Yakezie challenge, I'd love to talk.
Thanks,
Kraig

Thanks everyone,
I could use some advice on how to promote others. Should I make a blogroll, a Yakezie challenger/member list and/or write posts about posts/blogs that I'm reading and like? Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Kraig

Hi Kraig! Welcome to the challenge! The two best moves I made for my blog were moving to WordPress and joining Yakezie.
To answer your question in a word–yes. Do all of those. Additionally, I suggest reading and commenting on other Yakezie blogs. Network as much as possible. When blog swaps, teams, etc. come up, participate. Join the StumbleUpon group that Ashley from Money Talks Coaching started. Offer to guest post on other sites (I always welcome Yakezie challengers and members to guest post on my site) and offer to host guest posts from others.
Yakezie is what you make of it. We're glad to have you!
