I Want To Make Us Both Famous

I'm interested in you. I'm curious about who you are and what makes you tick. I want to meet each and every of you and nuzzle your internecks. I like the sound of my own voice. I like to start my sentences with I.

Lately, I've become a bit frustrated about a couple of things. I've posted what I think is some pretty damn good content fairly regularly on this site for a couple of years now. But my readership has stayed nearly level since it peaked in the first few weeks since the site launched. Try as I might, I've not been able to extend the reach of my voice.

Fine. If people aren't interested in what I have to say then maybe, like me, they're interested in what you have to say.

This week I hope to record the first of what I hope is a whole truckload of "Blogger Love On Wednesday" interviews. But I can't do it without you. I have some ideas about a couple of you I'd like to chat with but I know there are many, many of you with interesting stories to tell and terrific sites to promote.

So, if you are interested in being a guest on BLOW, contact me right away. You don't need to be one of the name-brand bloggers sitting at the big kids' table of the internet. Or you can be. Either way. And there's nothing to be nervous or embarrassed about. If you want to tell your story then you're perfect for the show. Come be one of the podcasteratti. I promise to be gentle on you, my delicate flowers.

Plus, you might get some kind of badge or something. I know how you crazy kids love the badges.

The first interview will be posted one week from today on, coincidentally on Wednesday. That's in roughly seven days so, umm... we better get to work.

I don't think you'd like me.

I doubt that. And based on who I have lined up so far, you'll be in good company.

Same thing goes for the rest of you.

I'll play

I'm not famous or an A, B or even C list blogger..but I have a blog, does that count..I must say the people that read my blog are super cool.. Like Witchypoo and Ree from Hotfessional..and even Bossy left a comment once.. and I had a contest and you played.. So yeah.. just let me know what you want me to do and I'll do it :-)

The only advice I can give

is to comment on a long list of other blogs. You're right that writing good content on your own blog is crucial, but you have to advertise it to build an audience.

Hit me up anytime

BLOW sounds like a lovely idea. I'm just going to hang around and keep reading, ok?

I think, somehow, I'd end up getting Dooced since I call my boss Sybil. I don't want to be famous, but I sure hope you are if you want to be.

Several have commented and emailed with interest in participating. I promise I want to interview all of you. I haven't forgotten about you. I'll be emailing very, very soon.

Hmph.

I seem to have the same problem...I'm not retaining new readers :(

Thanks

What a great idea... I am new to blogging and I have only written a few, so it will be fun to hear what other people have to say about it.

Who knows what it is that keeps people coming back for more. Free cupcakes?

p.s. thanks for taking a look at my blog and leaving my first EVER comment from someone I don't know in real life!
