Re: Google Reader

Jessica,

How about that call tonight.  That really challenged me.  I have been moderately successful, but tonight's call got me disgusted with my moderation.

Thanks for your question.

It would be a blessing to everyone on acblogroll.blogspot.com if you added each blog on acblogroll.blogspot.com to a new "reader" once a week.  Am I doing that faithfully?  Not yet.  Is it busy work?  Sure.  If we want to bless each other in this way though, here's how:
1. first week, subscribe to every one's blog with google reader
2. next week, subscribe with my.yahoo.com
3. next week, subscribe with another "reader"
...

But, if we all just made sure that we were subscribed to all of the blogs on acblogroll.blogspot.com all of the time and opened our reader of choice at least once a day, then the reader will go out and read those blogs for us and thus drive up their popularity.  If we all were doing this and writing at least one article a day like what you learned from the call tonight that you want to apply in your business or other things, but if we were consistent about it.  It will go a long way to our natural search results.

But, the number one best thing you can do for your business is hand out a card at the gas station or grocery store or at lunch... and say "we will be filling two positons in 10 days and you seem like you'd be perfect, will you commit to going through the 3 simple steps because we are going to fill those positions in those 10 days?

Be blessed,

Hey Eric:
 
I wanted to ask about Google Reader. Do we need to post to each person's blog or new entry each week? I think that is what you said...and the reason behind that is because it circluates our links?? I wanted to make sure.
 
Thanks!
