Your Best Post Published In An eBook: Here’s How
Here’s an opportunity to have your very best blog post of 2007 featured in a comprehensive 200 page e-book designed to serve as the ultimate resource for online business bloggers (and generate a lot of links back to your site!)
We are challenging bloggers to find their Best Post of 2007 to be included in the e-book with all links in tact. We will then publicize the e-book on all of our sites and in all of our online communities.
Your name (or author’s name) , the name of your blog, and a link to your blog will be listed at the beginning and end of each story to drive readers and potential subscribers back to your site for more.
Your Post Should Fit into One of These Four Sections
- Marketing
- Business
- SEO
- Blogging
No doubt you had a post this year that really generated buzz in the Blogosphere and caused your subscription rates to jump. Now it’s time to blow off the dust of that power post and leverage it to:
- Drive traffic to your site
- Reach out to a new audience
- Increase RSS subscribers
- Generate lots of backlinks to your blog
We plan to release the e-book in January 2008. We encourage you to let other bloggers know about the project so please announce this on your blogs and networks to help us fill the pages of this powerful resource. The more you publicize the book the more reach your own post within the book will have.
How to Submit Your Post for Publication:
Add a comment here linking to your Power Post of 2007 and let us know which category you feel your post belongs in. Do this ASAP as we will closing the opportunity for submissions on December 24th 2007! Posts will appear in their respective sections of the book in the order in which we receive your submission, so find one today and comment with the link!
Kudos to Fred for this great idea!

Great idea. I would love to see my SEO article series in the book, or if just 1 entry can go in then I would suggest the 3rd part of the article describing how to use SEO to help your SERPs ranking:
http://www.erikkarey.com/ranking-in-the-serps-part-3-tips-techniques.html
Can’t wait to see what the ebook contains.

You guys always come out with innovative ideas. I believe the post I am submitting could be in either marketing, or blogging. It’s a list of over 120 bookmarking sitesw with PageRank. Here’s the link: http://arsenalmarketing.com/blog-marketing/social-bookmarking-list-over-120-sites-with-page-rank

I, like many other SEO enthusiasts, held the belief that it was beneficial to spread sites and/or links over different C-Class IPs – so I did a little research and found that that simply may not be true any more. Anyway, thought it would be a beneficial article for your book since so many internet marketers are now looking into the new SEO hosting deals being promoted out there based on this myth.
