Now I've broken a world record, I need to work out what to achieve next. Admittedly I didn't do much, and in fact was probably the worst coconut basher there, seeing as I got some defective nuts that were cracked and different sizes to one another. Fnarr etc.
I've been skulking around this evening looking at other peoples blogs and am wondering just how difficult it is to become an internet phenomenon. One guy's blog that I went to had about 20 different feeds coming into his site from various blog search engines and so on. Surely it can't be that difficult to create yourself as the next big thing? A few comments here, a few links there... I suppose that necessitates having a clue how the internet works - Craig, it's over to you.

why would anyone who doesnt know you be interested in what you have to say?
ReplyDeleteyou need an angle. once you have got that then making the links to the angle are pretty easy. think "I'm Dave Gorman"
The technology bit of reciprocal links, submissions to digg and del.icio.us, rss feeds, page ranking etc is pretty simple and in general its a one time set up, with the addition of new technology as and when it comes along.
Its having something to say, that people want to hear and that keep wanting to hear, that is the tricky part. It's a bit like selling a script or something too, you have to keep submitting blog posts to aggregation sites and even if they are ignored keep at it, if the content is good then the theory runs that people will discover it eventually...
gosh, that's a very comprehensive and somewhat serious response. thanks!
ReplyDeleteps - the point is kind of to become the next big thing through canny marketing rather than interesting content. The kind of thing Murray might be proud of.
ReplyDeletesorry.
