"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.
