Who Said That? Friday, August 17th 2007
If you are new to Create Business Growth, we close out each week with our Who Said That?, where we give some link love to other blogs and regular websites that we feel you may find interesting.
Let’s get started!
Analyze Your Blog’s Competition
ProBlogger makes some really great points here in the post Analyze Your Blog’s Competition. He suggests making a list of 10 blogs in your industry and analyzing them based on the key points he has listed here. The reason? You may find some things you’ll want to emulate, but more importantly, you may discover topics that your competition isn’t covering.
Am I A Freelance Pushover?
Just about everyone who starts their own business begins by being too wimpy with their customers. This is a frustrating and unprofitable time in any business that everyone should be inclined to get over as quickly as possible. Are you showing some of the signs Kristen Fischer points out in her post, Am I a Freelance Pushover?
How Much Should You Pay a Freelance Blogger?
What! You say why would I hire a freelance blogger? Many, many people do. Magazines hire writers don’t they? If you want to grow your blog beyond just yourself and into an entity, you may want to think about hiring some quality freelance bloggers who are knowledgeable in your area. Khalid from Invesp talks about the price of hiring a freelance blogger in the post How Much Should You Pay a Freelance Blogger? Invesp always seems to have high quality content-be sure to leave a high quality comment Khalid is running a contest where one commenter will win a book!
The Blog Olympics!
Jordan McCollum from Marketing Pilgrim has launched a new event on her personal blog the Blog Olympics! What I love most about the Blog Olympics events is that they provide a guideline for some really successful blogging. Try earning one the medals in Jordan’s Blog Olympics. Doing so will only add value to your blog and help you to grow as a blogger.
Five Reasons To Attend Blog World
Matt Blancarte gives us 5 compelling reasons to attend the Blog World conference in Las Vegas on November 8th and 9th this year. Who’s going!?! I’m definitely going to try to make it. It would be great to see some of you there!
An Inexpensive Way to Promote Your Blog Contests
Nate Whitehill gives a great overview of Contest Blogger and how you can use it to promote your contest. According to Nate, or $15, Contest Blogger will feature your contest in the sidebar for 30 days and also include a longer than normal review. Wow! I’ll definitely be checking that out. Thanks Nate!

Happy blogging and have a great weekend!
