Some Thoughts On A Blogging Alliance

I've been thinking about blogging alliances ever since I read Darren Rowse's great article on Problogger.net  If you have not read it then you should. I think the way the group Darren wrote about is going about it the right way. I would like to be in one if it could be done in a similar fashion because it will be a benefit to all involved if done correctly. I'm still new to all of this and trying to learn as much as I can and I'm not alone out here because I see posts all over the blogosphere from new bloggers asking similar questions. We are all out here trying to fly solo and there is no problem with that if you are a seasoned pro, which I'm not! My idea would be to join up with other new bloggers and help each other out with advice and ideas. If any of those veteran bloggers want to join as sort of a mentor, that would be great as well! One thing I want to make clear is that everything will be for free and there would be no fee, or anything people have to buy in order to join up. Those are some of my thoughts, I would love to hear what you are thinking. Let me know if you have any ideas of your own, I look forward to hearing from you! My email is Beltwayboy7@gmail.com

Blogging Alliances

I have just finished reading a very good post on Problogger.net about several bloggers getting together and forming an alliance. That is the online worlds version of a street gang, they are working together and promoting each others blogs and the group as a whole. I have been around the blogosphere for under a year, but I had already noticed how certain blogs appeared to work with each other. They do a good job of not being to obvious at what they are doing, but if you hang around then you will start to notice little things about how certain blogs seem almost clickish in how they talk and promote each other. There is nothing wrong with what they are doing, in fact it's good business and more bloggers need to get together and form their own alliances. If done correctly it would benefit the whole group and help each blog and blogger to grow and profit from it. I will come right out and say that I'm all ears if someone has any ideas on an alliance!
