even if you or anyone else would have im sure i wont get less people signing up because some1 has the same blog as i do. it is 95% about how and where you promote it.

You could try facebook, create a page and try and get people to 'like' it, give youtube a go as this seems to work quite well for some.

One thing I will advise you not to try is the use of websites like getref (there are a few). They don't work and are just a waste of time and money.

Other than the above visit the 'How To Get Greens' section of the forum and see if you can come up with something that suits you from other peoples ideas/suggestions in there.

Good luck.

Sorry haven't got a chance to get on lately and didn't reply, but az87aris couldn't have put it better

Thanks for sharing how you promote your site. Will give them a go, maybe even take the plunge and sell my soul to twitter lol.

If i remember it right...it has never been good idea to just copy/paste from other blogs, articles or wherever..if you are doing SEO and trying to get high on Google.
If someone copy your text and you are high on Google you can lose your high position.
I had few copy/paste cases already and i don't like that!

My honest suggestion and opinion is that everyone should write content on his own. Just be yourself and friendly. Use other people blogs as inspiration and NOT as free source of images and content.

If I was running a website I wouldn't say that but considering it's a blog I'm not trying to get it high on google that's why I don't mind people copying it but on the other hand you are absolutely right, best way to go os to write something of your own.

Some websites have blogs
Some websites don't have blogs
Some websites are blogs

My point was that I don't have a registered domain to call it a website

I have a lot to learn??
Blog is just a "name" for a website. Anything on the internet that you see are websites. Different type of websites though..but websites!

Don't tell me that i need to learn more when it's actually the other way around!
Blog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A website is not a blog but a website can contain a blog.
A blog CAN be a website, depending on how it is configured.

A blog is not a "name" for a website, it's a name given to a "style" of web page. WebLog.

Would you call FreebieJeebies a blog ?

No argument from me :P
Apologies

Eddiy · 26-08-11, 04:53 PM

Nothing to apologize for

I was just joking, it's actual kinda intertaining lol

sadaharu · 26-08-11, 08:04 PM

hehe...i think that you should really Google it a little bit more about what websites really are and how they works.

style of web page? seriously? web page?

"...A weblog, sometimes written as web log or Weblog(Blog) , is a Web site that consists of a series of entries arranged in reverse chronological order, often updated on frequently with new information about particular topics. The information can be written by the site owner, gleaned from other Web sites or other sources, or contributed by users..."

You just aren't getting what mistake you made are you.

See the problem here ?

Blog = Website (or at least a form of website)
Website does not = Blog

End of.
