“a blog can not be successful without readers. A blog without readers is like a fish without water. Both are doomed and will soon die.”
- Garry Conn
I closely review my posts to see which ones do well and which ones don’t. Also I pay close attention to which contests, freebies and promotions I offer that hit off as well. Yesterday I offered up a huge 160×600 sidebar graphic for people to bid on. I didn’t get any bidders. 
But that’s ok… so now what I would like to do is try something different. I am now offering up some free sidebar space! I want to feature your site’s feed free for two days! Here is how it works:
Feature Your RSS Feed On My Sidebar For Free!
I am sharing the link love and power of linking to you. Even more I am doing it ten fold! Every other day, Garry Conn dot Com is going to feature a new blog site’s Ten Most Recent Posts and display them on the sidebar! This will be done using RSS syndication! What that means is as you post new content on your site, it will instantly be reflected on my site! WOW!!! What’s more… I am doing this for free! I want to show case your hard work, I want to help blast out your most recent posts out into the blogosphere, I want your blog to succeed!
How Do I Get My Feed Featured For Two Days?
Simple. Drop me a comment below with your request to be featured on my site. First come first serve. Comment quick because I know that there WILL BE A WAITING LIST for this offer! Again I am going to be featuring your site’s RSS feed within my sidebar for two days. After two days I will replace it with who ever is next in line! Enjoy! Have Fun! And I wish everyone blogging success!

I’d love to get my feed featured, thanks!
Hey welcome aboard. You are first. I have your RSS feed featured on my sidebar which will display a live view of your ten most recent posts!
Great News! I am using a widget that will allow not only the post title of your feed but also a portion of your actual post! This gives my readers a good size preview of your post.
Additionally, with this widget I have enough room two display two and maybe even three feeds at a time!
So if you want your 10 most recents posts featured on my home page and also every page within my entire site, drop me a comment. First come first serve!
I’d love to have 10 posts featured and all that, thanks!
I am sorry you had no bidders! I did add you to my favorites list so I can keep track of your posts better!
Ok, I’m in. Here’s the URL for my Get Paid To Write feed – http://feeds.feedburner.com/Getpaidtowrite

Thank you for your consideration… and great raffic for you!
Just think of the additonal traffic all of your commenters would enjoy if we simply linked to each other and subscribed to each others feeds! Hey, not a bad idea!
urm.. garry, where are you taking all those crazy ideas from? Feel free to checkout my feed at http://www.h4x3d.com/feed/
it will direct you to my feedburner feed. there are currently some 120 ish people subscribed, so it can’t be all wrong what I write :p
oh great, the link got eaten.
I damn this stupid wordpress bug. luckily I have already found someone to fix it. (trac.wordpress.org).
my feedburner feed is at http://feeds.feedburner.com/jez

You are welcome… and of course.. your site can stay until we get more requests.
Thanks Tam, nice site too… I have three kids 15, 9 and 1 so I am a big ham for other parenting blogs. Keep up the nice work. You have a pretty cool design too!
Tam,
I wasn’t sure… because you didn’t say, but were you wanting me to feature your feed on the sidebar?
Sharon, I am now displaying your 10 most recent posts on my sidebar… Congrats!
Hi Mick,
I have your feed scheduled for Thursday April 26th, 2007! Congrats! I look forward to displaying your most recent posts on my sidebar…
Who’s next! I have one more slot available for Thursday. After that then two slots open for Saturday April 28th. My goal is to book these slots weeks in advanced! If you free advertising, this is an opportunity I would totally jump on…
Hurry lock in on a slot before someone else does. Drop me a comment.
I have you added!
David,
You are locked in on Thursday’s last slot. I will feature your blog’s most recent posts for two days! Congrats!
Thursday Slots Are Boooked!
There are two slots available for Saturday, April, 28th 2007! Who is going to be the next lucky blogger to lock in on some free advertising?
Madhur, Congrats!!!
You are locked in for one of the slots on Saturday! I look forward to featuring your site!
Ok everyone… there is only one slot left for Saturday!
Who is next for some free advertising on Saturday?
Thank you! I am also working on a “Daddy’s Getaway” (not the blog, but a main site w/ forums) for all of the dads who have requested something similar to the main Mommy’s Getaway site. It should be up sometime at the end of next month!
If you still have spots open, I would love to take part in this. If that happens, I will make sure I feature you on my site as well. Linky love is good!
Hey Matt,
You are all set to be featured on Saturday! Congrats!!

Garry,
Thanks for the feature! Also, thanks for the mention about the IE malfunction. I think I need to get the XHTML validator plugin and make sure all my posts are compliant. It was working fine earlier so i suspect one of the posts breaking the theme..
Another thanks for the blogroll! Btw, what plugin are you using to get this threaded comments. It looks very cool!
Hey Garry.. I was just wondering if you are planning to run the feature feeds! Today was our turn.. thanks for offering it anyways!! I know you are overhauling the blog!
