Blog Self Promotion
I'm in the process of trying to promote my blog a bit more around the internet. Some of my friends read the things I write, but why should they be the only ones to suffer!
I'm already a member of Technorati and registered my other more specialised blogs there too. But this was done ages ago and doesn't appear to be helping much.
I guess I need to get listed on more directories, and become a hit with google, so I've just setup a page on wikablog, here as a start.
A wiki is interesting, it's a website where anyone can edit the pages, or even create brand new pages. It's quite easy once you understand it, but is not for the fainthearted. This might be a barrier to the site becoming really well populated.
You might have heard of Wikipedia, the online free encyclopedia. This is a wiki, with millions of pages I expect, but apart from this wikis really haven't made it very far into the general web consciousness.
Everyone you sign up with obviously wants you to put a link back to their site. I hope to try and avoid filling my blog realestate with too many adverts though, as this page from Tim Worstall (where I found the Wikablog site, so thanks for that) is looking a bit on the busy side.
As I think of more ways to publicise myself, I'll try and add them in here.
