Comluv And FamousBloggers Ultimate Contest Sponsors

Below is a list of some of the great sponsors and writers of the contest that I am writing this post about. At the majority of these sites that belong to the sponsors yo can find very unique and well written techniques for publishers like ourselves. The many that take on blogging as either a hobby or way to earn residual income have come to greet these contests with a warm eye or a cold shoulder. This contest for me looks like it will be one of the hugest ever seen on the web.

Sure, I tried my hand at a small contest and got a dribble of feedback but nothing on the scale of what is brewing here for this one. I'm jst glad to find like minded individuals of which i can share my thoughts and opinions with. But my own post, Streamlining And Tweeting For Your Comments, will hopefully bring me some much needed exposure and traffic on my first go around.

What I find truly fascinating in this bunch of people is the down to Earth way they write their posts and techniques for some of the advanced types of tools used for blogging.

Take a look around and comment and visit on some of the sponsor's blogs to get an idea for what I'm talking about. Yo won't be left wanting at all.

Pop the bubble and leave a few comments

Many of you that may come by or drop by the site from traffic sources like Adgitize and linkrefferal may really feel the need to bounce as soon as you hit the door. In a way that may seem kind of like the thing to do to get your "required" visits in for the day. But would yo do this to a friend's home or a person that drops by your house for a "visit". Do you get perplexed by the occasional "I just stopped in to say, Hi! and then bye"? Well, sometimes I get a bit miffed about seeing a higher than 55% bounce rate.

Rude, isn't it. Well here at my site, I appreciate your visits and any time I see an email saying that someone left a valid comment, my eyes light up. First off, your comment tells me that you find fascination with something that either I posted here or tweeted about.

So to encourage comments, I've gone the extra steps of adding a more streamlined IntenseDebate comments box below. And with a bit of a headache from the previous weekend, I was able to add a fully functioning tweet box just above the IntenseDebate box. The good thing about these tools is that I will give them a go around of a month or so to see if they will encourage site visitors to leave a comment and maybe spark some interaction.

Keep in mind that the IntenseDebate box is a plugin and the tweetbox is built on an API kit that I received from twitter developers. So, as long as your tweet falls within the 140 character limit it will instantly hit your feed stream. I'd appreciate a comment or two as to what your ideas are on the full tweet box and whether this is something you would add to your own blog or website. And of course a scaled back plugin for IntenseDebate means that all of those sharing and rss doodads that many won't se at all. Giving you the reader a cleaner experience was the sole intent for me scaling it back from all of the flare that yo can have associated with its functionality.

If you see anything here that peaks your interest, by all means, use the contact form p top and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Or better yet, why not use my GoogleVoice number and leave me a snarky voicemail - 727-753-9704
