The Secret Is Finally Out: BLOGAPALOOZA
December 21, 2008 by Lillie
You’ve probably seen those mysterious hints around the blogosphere of something big coming to Middle Zone Musings soon. And you’ve probably been wondering what in tarnation Robert is up to now!
The secret is out. You can read the complete announcement at BLOGAPALOOZA – What I Learned From 2008.
To participate, write a post with a bulleted list linking to your favorite post from each month you blogged in 2008 (12 posts if you blogged all year). Send it to Robert, and he’ll post it as a guest post on his blog. That means you’ll have twelve incoming links—which is great for SEO—plus you’ll introduce your blog and your favorite posts to lots of folks who haven’t discovered you yet.
The kick-off is today, and the Blogapalooza runs from January 5th through January 25th. Robert’s goal is 100 entries, and the sooner you get yours in, the sooner he’ll post it. You don’t want to miss out on this one! Head over Middle Zone Musings for all the details.
Thanks for the publicity, Lillie! This is gonna be fun!
Robert,
Hope you get the 100 entries you’re aiming for!
It’s a great idea, but do 12 incoming links from one post really matter any more than 1 from an SEO standpoint? In fact, is 12 too many?
John,
Confession time: I don’t know anything about SEO. I just repeated what I was told and have no reason to doubt it.
I participated in the group writing project because I enjoy Robert’s projects and it was an incentive for me to review what I’ve written in the past year.
My blog is purely for entertainment (my own!) so I’m not actively doing SEO. If the links are helpful, good. If not, I don’t care.
Yeah, after a long waiting, the secret is finally revealed, Lillie.
By the way, have you decided to take part in this new project?

Wilson,
Yes, I’ve already written my submission for this. I did it early to narrow down my choices for Simply the Best.
[...] authors, a delayed series, group writing projects, and several seasonal posts made this thank-you post very late, but no less sincere. 115 people [...]
This will be a great. I can’t wait to see what stuff shows up on those lists. its always fun to see what kind of posts show up on different kinds of blogs. thanks for the heads up.
Jenny,
If Robert meets his goal of 100 entries, we’ll have 1200 posts to read!
