Feature Your Feed For Free

with 47 comments

“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!

  2. 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!

  3. 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!

    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!

  43. 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!
