Lately I have been falling into a wealth of discovering or being told about new websites that help bloggers. I am usually not one to blog back-to-back about websites, but hey… it is a useful site and could prove to be helpful. SeededBuzz.com is a site that allows people to submit their post and allow others to carry on the conversation on their own blog. Let me clarify – people who are dying to find out what you think about certain topics, but might not normally comment.
This allows a couple great things to happen.
1. You have a new quality article you can post.
2. The topic you wrote about includes a link to the original article, allowing people to either visit if they so choose and above all, a link back.
3. You have another good blog to visit regularly.
Topics that people can post under are: Automotive, Charity, Creative, Entertainment, Green, Living, Marketing, Money, Politics, Sport, Science, and Technology.
To use, all you have to do is post one of your articles for others to see and possible write articles in response on their own blogs. Also, you can choose someone else’s ‘seed’ topic and write your own response. It is really easy! I actually have already tried it out on one of the previous blog postings.
I believe this is a great idea. I know SeededBuzz would like to try offering packages in their product, BUT I also know they have been offering some beta accounts for free. I am not sure if those are still being accepted, but I have been given a code to give to anyone who wants to check it out. Just use the code ‘blondishnet’ when you sign up. 🙂
I think there are not enough sites with this in mind. Of course, over the past few years I have tried different things: banner ad exchanges, blog community link exchanges, and more. However, this one encourages more action, rather than just doing one thing and not having to do anything else.
Are there any other sites you know of similar to this? Does this sound like something you might want to try out?
