Blog marketing is a rich, wide-open world that offers more opportunity to drive targeted traffic than any other format for online publishing. With a blog you can take advantage of traffic sources unavailable to people who still try to market their sites with no blog presence.
Therefore, you can out compete those in your niche who are far behind the times. Web 2.0 style sites offer myriad opportunities to market your blog from Digg-type sites where you post about your latest content, to blog-only communities such as MyBlogLog, SpicyPage, and Technorati.
I outline several hundred methods for marketing your blog in the Authority Black Book. But I have also found some other places that you should check out in a week or two when you are done reading the Black Book. (There’s more than enough in there to keep you busy for months!)
