rssHugger.com is a new site that brings bloggers and readers together with “a unique easy-to-use way to promote their blogs by sending them traffic, building backlinks for search engine optimization, as well as attracting new rss subscribers if the content is interesting to the reader.”
What is impressive is the link building strategy rssHugger implements, and how well it is working. To add your blog for free to rssHugger, all you have to do is blog about the site (like so). With hundreds of blogs on the system, the number of backlinks are growing like weeds.
The person behind rssHugger is Collin LaHay who has a fantastic internet marketing blog at MixedMarketArts.com.
How many reviews of the same site ie RSSHugger, can we stand as simply a ticket to get your blog listed?…or pay $20? At some point the marginal value of the additional review is so low it’s not worth it. I mean, I want to be a part of any engaged community but I feel like Collin is saying “write about me and you can play on my team” is that so everyone will write about him? How about “write about one of our sites member blogs and you can become a member too” That will encourage review and opinion about everyone…not just his own blog/site.
