Not a problem. It’s probably one of the most underrated tool out there.

Ryan,

Thanks for the comment.

I would have to say to some level you need to care about what people think since these people are the ones coming to read your blog or promote it, but you do make a great point in that many times bloggers get so controlled by the people. Their blog becomes not their blog, but the people’s blog.

Derek,

There’a a science to blog promotion. Not too much, not too little. Don’t overdo but also don’t be afraid of annoying people. You’ll always annoy some person. You can’t please ‘em all!

I promote my blog aggressively because I believe in it as a content-rich portal. I used to fear what “people” might think but I could care less these days. People who worry about “people” don’t believe fully in themselves.

Hi Brandon,

Couldn’t agree with you more about “Word of mouth” being the best form of promotion ( for those with a non-internet social circle anyway). It’s probably almost neglected as a marketing tool by most website owners in my opinion. And it’s so simple really. As long as you’re spreading something with quality people will be really glad to hear about what you’re doing – and spread the word much further. Everyone’s happy too – which is nice!

Cheers

Will

P.S BlogEngage (please see link below) definitely my second favourite marketing method now – a fantastic site and community

I really enjoyed this post. I agree 100% with everything said. We have to use good common sense. Unfortunately many people forget basic notions of manners. It truly amazes me how some people spam and think that what they are doing is marketing – LOL.
All the best,
Eren

This really caught my eye. About a month ago I wrote a post about being annoying on Twitter. Seeing the same face pushing everyone out can get annoying very quickly. Of course I use a group to avoid over-twitters. Even if someone has interesting things to say, I want to see what others are saying as well.

Excellent post. Thank you.

You forgot ‘You shall not pay spambot services to promote your blog!’ I recently begun to get plenty of spam comments linking to not-as-bad-as-you-could-think websites.

I shall agree with all you said though, it’s true and it’s annoying to see/read. I always unfollow people who are only talking about how awesome they/their blog is.
