Your Best Post Published In An eBook: Here’s How
November 18th, 2007 by Adam

Best Business Blog PostsHere’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

Thanks for considering!

Interesting idea. I would definitely like to participate. The post I would like to include is a little write up on moving a free hosted blog on wordpress to your own domain. It should be included in the blogging section. The link is…

This is a tutorial on how to write, I think it should go under BLOGGING because it teaches folks how to write for a blog.

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.

This is a post on networking from a slightly different perspective. I think it should be included in the business section of the ebook.

Great idea! I only have material for the blogging section. I’m starting a company next year, so if you’ll do this again next year I’ll probably have some business related stuff.

For now, I have two options. Both posts created some buzz, they are:
How to use Google Reader to effectively track your Comment Marketing or
Results of the cross-blog series – it was a success! (featured today on “Who said that?” on this blog.

I’ll leave it up to you to pick what you like best, or what suits best in the book with the other articles.

I don’t know if this will qualify but it is certainly worth the inspiration for those who wants to become successful, whether in business or blogging. If I had to choose, I would say put it as an inspirational quote in business.

This post alone brought over 7500 pageviews in December this year alone.
