My take on the whole blog thing. Working together works.
 

I've learned something in all of this. Blogging is a COMMUNITY thing. You have to let go of the conventional website stuff and learn how these things work. You post on your blog, trackback, let others trackback to you, hard link with various others, etc. and you see traffic.

If you're into a certain tight niche, i.e. Forkbeard with spankingblog.con or Myself with DominatrixBlog.com then your traffic become not only loyal but productive.

Thanks for teaching Me.

BTW: There are no SECRETS to blogging, except maybe that it requires effort on your part. Quit playing 007 and get with the program.


Anyone have a few good trackback URLs?

For those of us who aren't using Moveable Type, This tutorial just explained in plain english wtf a trackback is and how to do it.

Tala, I hope this thread has no response. I am not a blogger but I do have a few out there. If you are submitting galleries, start a blog on http://www.askjolene.com/ :)

I'm not submitting galleries. I'm just writing and posting a pic or two here and there.

wrong wrong wrong
theres no money in blogs

I think people need to start shutting up about this before it becomes too saturated.

I see no problem in blogging.

well, like anything else, if there is an interest in the content, the traffic will come, in not...not.

I don't understand what is up with all the blog talk on GFY all of a sudden. Blogs have been around for years and I've hardly seen any threads about blogs on GFY, but in the past week or two there have been blog threads on GFY every day.

WTF?

They will list it and if you can find it and post on your blog there :)

I completely agree that it's a community thing.
