#MondayMashup 2015 Volume 13

On this week’s #MondayMashup, we’ll be showcasing some blog tips, some design freebies, some link building no-nos, and a warning from Google.

I had a few people submit some possible articles for consideration, and after reviewing them, I couldn’t accept them. One had a tactic that one social network bans, like-gating. Another was really poorly written. I spend a good amount of time reading every week, so I’m really picky about what goes into the #MondayMashup roundup. Don’t get mad if your article isn’t accepted, learn, and improve.

I have to say, I’ve been on a roll with blogging. It’s not been every day, but I’ve made some improvement. It’s just in time for National Novel Writing Month too.
