Our first three SHOUT OUTS


This is it guys, i'll reveal my first three shout outs of the week, i hope to make a daily shout out's if time will permit. My first shout out goes to...drummers feverously drumming for...The brains behind SHOUT OUT, the genius insect himself, antman( deafening applause could be heard >_<). The inspiration behind this blog who have a noble purpose to give chance and exposure to those who have worked their butts off (pardon for the language) just to give quality information to their readers. Who would hopefully set a trend to fellow bloggers to give chance to each other in gaining exposure, don't be selfish now my friends, come to think of it, you won't stand a chance in this competitive world called blogosphere / web on your own. So we hope you'll follow our lead and help each other =).

Our second shout out goes to...drums rolinggggggggggggg, Eric, one of the founders of mybloglog.com, upon registering to mybloglog he would be your first contact / friend and would gladly help you navigate the systems user friendly interface. For those who don't know mybloglog.com, it is a community of bloggers that was developed by unknown geniuses(except for eric^^^, i hope you'll reveal your conspirators eric) that offer a cool features such as cool copy paste widgets where you can see in real time who's your recent readers in your blog or site for that matter. A widget for the top link in your site, you'll let your readers be aware of the most popular links in your site. A tracking script that lets mybloglog track your update. Mybloglog is an excellent bloggers community, i've tried other communities but nothing comes close to it and to tell you the truth almost 60% of my traffice comes from mybloglog community.

My third and surely not that last SHOUT OUT goes to...gurushabad my first community member in my other blog in mybloglog.com entitled a free and decent blog host, thank you for believing in me my friend, like garushabad i myself seek knowledge. In his blog you could find words of wisdom with regards to life and how to deal with it, i just hope you'll add an update to the blog >_<, coz im always checking that site for an additional words of wisdom hehehehe.

So there you have it my friends, our first three SHOUT OUTS of the week, please stay tuned for our weekly or perhaps if time will permit a daily shout out. Who knows, your blog / sites may end up here and be featured in this blog. Always remember, a link or referral from other sites will give you additional traffic and give a sense of satisfaction for your hard work.
KEEP ON BLOGGING MY FRIEND =)

"A legacy of the antman"

Hello dear readers, if you're wondering what this blog is all about then let me give you a little background. A friend of mine in MyBloglog community has recently released a blog entitled cre8Buzz, calling out to fellow bloggers to share useful information to each other and to give exposure to deserving bloggers in mybloglog community and the blogosphere, a great and noble idea coming from a genius. Certainly a good news to those who work hard to make a quality, unique and useful content but gain little or less exposure.

Are there other link and referral ideas out there?

Yes, there are a lot of link and referral idea's out there, some will ask you to write 5 things about yourself that people don't usually know about you, in exchange, your link will be included to their site. Im not saying that im against these or won't accept such links if given a chance, i believe that's its a great idea too because it creates a viral effect, a really good thing if you want additional traffic. Others will put your link to their site or blog that has relevance to their own content, again a really good idea, it will work both ways, additional traffic to the link and additional relevant content to the site that will put a link because it usually comes with a positive reviews about the link.

So what made SHOUT OUT different from other link and referral idea's?

Well, i could point out 2 things, first, it will give you additional relevant content if you choose to SHOUT OUT blogs or site that has relevance to your own content, don't forget to add review's or comment about the link you want to refer, what's the difference you ask? the difference between the previous idea and SHOUT OUT is that, usually(but not always) the links that people put in their sites are those who already gained a considerable amount of exposure or those that are on top searches of a search engine or have garnered a high alexa rankings, bad news for those who have made an excellent and useful resource but receives less or no exposure at all.

The idea of SHOUT OUT (i hope brother antman will agree with me) is to give exposure to those bloggers / authors who have made an excellent article for other users to utilize and hopefully learn from. Secondly, SHOUT OUT will employ a viral effect to your traffic but won't add irrelevant content to your site as 5 links would do, unique content? yes, nevertheless an irrelevant one, again i must point out that im not againts 5 links idea, i have great respect to whoever pioneered that strategy because only a genius could ever formulate such an idea.
