How To Engage With The Blogosphere

You shouldn’t view other bloggers as a threat or competition—in reality, they are your friends. Blogging is about mutually beneficial relationships.The best way to engage with other bloggers is on their blogs. You need to spend your time to read their posts, leave comments, and write posts that link back to them. Here is a good strategy for becoming a more connected blogger:
- Research the blogs in your market niche.
- Take time to discover the key players.
- Analyze their content and try to figure out what their readers like.
- Come up with a list of bloggers you intend to target for relationship-building. Start small, just five would be enough to get you going.
- Expand your list as time goes by.
- Begin leaving comments at your target blogs. Try to make them as relevant as possible. You have to genuinely engage with the issues they raise.
- Write posts on your own blog that expand on the topics raised by those on your target list. Link back to their posts.
- Continue doing this regularly; soon some of the bloggers you are targeting will notice you. They will begin to comment on your blog and write posts about the issues you are raising.
- Keep expanding your list of target blogs and keep working on this strategy for building new relationships.
- Good job! You have started to build your blogging business!
Do you have any other strategy for engagement with the blogosphere? Have your say, and please share them with me and my readers.









If it wasn’t for my blogger friends like you I would still be trying to figure out how to get subscriber or how to get someone to leave a comment. Without visiting other blogs we’re kind of left in the dark.
