Give Blog Directories A Try



Does Social Media scare you? Sometimes it scares me. When I think of all the time and energy it takes to maintain a couple blogs, two websites (one personal and one for my conference), email, facebook, and all the little things I do every day to stay informed about the writing biz, it can overwhelm me.

I know so many writers and professionals that do none or only one of the above. In reality, who is getting ahead faster? Not sure.

I do know that if Im going to tackle all these things, I need to be better at it. The world of blogging is a job by itself. I dont want to be consumed with it, but if I can get a little more proficient without too much more work, I'll do it.

In researching blogging I came across an article that reminded me of something I already knew about blogs - its a good idea to list your blog in blog directories. People actually do use those things to find blogs in their area of interest. Here are a list of a few you might want to try.

Blogged.com

I plan to add my blog to more directories in hopes of more exposure and increased traffic.
Have you tried any directories?

P.S. K.M. Weiland has a super promotion going on right now. Check it out here.
