YourBlogTools in 2009

I don’t usually talk about myself or my blog, but since it’s the last day of year, I’m making an exception.

This has been a great 2009 at Yourblogtools. – both on and off the blog.
The story all began at the beginning of September when I decided to follow my passion and start a blog that focused on web solution tools.

I have had a wonderful time and I am ever so grateful to everyone who has become a part of this blog. This includes regular readers, those who leave comments and subscribers – thank you.
Hopefully, we’ll get to know each other much better in 2010.

If I could sum up 2009 in a word, it would be ‘discovery‘.

It has been a great year to discover many things in terms of blogging and internet marketing i.e discovering better ways to interact with others as a blogger, the world of internet marketing and the discovery of many new friends.

Coming up to four months of existence, I can confidently say I’m even more passionate about meeting the blogging needs of my readers. I still get butterflies just before hitting the publish button, and excitement when I you leave comments in response.

Successes

In the four months, I’m truly grateful for the success I have had on this blog. At the time of writing this post I have entered the 300,000 Alexa ranking group and Google Page Rank 2

Your Blogging Tool for 2010

In 2009, millions of new blogs were created, which means thousands of blog posts submitted on a daily basis.

The new year will be no different – and the numbers will increase as more gadgets are introduced to make social networking easier and easily accessible.

If you haven’t started thinking ahead of the new year – blog-wise – well now’s a good time to ask yourself, “Does my blog stand a chance among the others?”

You could make the answer to that question a very confident “Yes” by making one smart move that’ll ensure 2010 is a successful blog year – get stuck into latest, most talked about blogging resource – Beyond Blogging.

Viigo is Your Friend

It’s Christmas.
And chances are you are out and about, doing your last minute shopping and preparations.

But, in the midst of the festive chaos, your blog gets thrown down the bottom of the to-do list as hosting family members and shovelling snow off your driveway takes priority.

You’re not alone.
Thoughts of an abandoned blog have filled me with guilt.

But then I realised it doesn’t have to be such a painful thing to do.

As an avid mobile device (BlackBerry) user, responding to comments, and keeping up to date with my favourite blogs has been a doddle.

What’s made this even more natural to do, requiring less effort has been the RSS subscription service by Viigo. It’s made keeping on top of my blogging commitments a click and a scroll away – and at the most convenient of times.

[Review] Beyond Blogging

To continue my product review series,
I am looking at Beyond Blogging, a new book by Nathan Hangen and MikeCJ which is due to be launched in a few days.

I’ve read a draft copy of Beyond Blogging, and I have to say it’s a masterpiece.
It features some of the best and most successful bloggers in the game and how they operate their blogs as a business.

Nathan and Mike have also taken the lessons learnt from their profile bloggers to create a blueprint for any blogger wanting to achieve success.

Beyond Blogging provides an in-depth interviews and case studies with the likes of David Risley, Michael Dunlop, Gary Veynerchuk, Chris Garret, Chris Brogan John Chow, Darren Rowes and much more.

Learn From the Best

I truly believe one of the best ways to succeed in what you do is to learn from the best in your field. And in Beyond Blogging, there’s over a dozen A-List bloggers sharing inspiring experiences you’d want to apply immediately.

These guys have definitely gone Beyond Blogging in showing how to blog profitably.
