Previously, I have written about what on a blog puts me off as a visitor and keeps me from subscribing to it. Today, I am going to disclose what makes me subscribe to a blog and how you can learn from my perspective as a reader to improve your own blog.
I have started writing for Blogging Tips and my first post about 5 Essential Time Saving Tips For Bloggers went live on Tuseday. It’s exciting to write for a blog other than my own. And yes, It’s a paid writing job.
As always, here are some great worth-linkinng-to articles from around the blogosphere.

After running my free backlink offer for two days, I have ended up with a total of 28 links. It was a great response (despite the site being down for 10 hours instantly after the offer) and I learned a thing or two from it that I’ll utilize in my future offerings.
Thanks to those who submitted their links, and a special thanks to following people for spreading the word:
Those who benefited from this offer, and those who missed, keep your fingers crossed, because a similar offer is coming very soon, which will be even better and everyone will be able to benefit from it. Subscribe to my RSS to be notified when I give away more free backlinks.

So you wanna build a lots of links for your blog huh?
That’s easy. You only need to look at what work for others and steal their techniques. Obviously, some methods only work for a select few, because of the way they do it, and because of the fact that you can’t do it. I am talking about the so-called A-list bloggers who have done all the hard work of building strong reputation for their blogs, and now even if they do so much as belch, it prompts many people to link to them for doing such valiant feat.
Of course it takes time, hard work, dedication, and a bit of social media luck to reach that level, but here we are talking about quick and dirty ways to build loads of links to your blog, aimed at getting you better search engine rankings, improved Technorati rank, and most importantly creating brand awareness for your blog.
