I just learned something about blogging. You do not need many comments on your post.... and n o....you do not need to be featured on Activerain to get two of your blogs syndicated on Reuters. Here is the recap from my experience. I was invited to join Blogburst and if you read the other posts you'll understand what Blogburst is for. That is not what this post is about.
I wrote a post for Blog Action Day. It was original and it had some photos of the outside of my home. It was called Weston Florida homes go Green with Solar Pool Heating. I accidentally found it because I had not logged in there much. I noticed it was linked to Reuters and was showing it had over 50,000 views. Renee Burrows should check too. She had that little badge on her blog and I just wandered in like a little pup looking for a biscuit:) So I thank her for that!
The other day I wanted to track it and I noticed something else....Reuters syndicated my follow up post My Blog was picked up on Reuters as well. Am I just in a dream or did they really do it?.....I checked again and the link was still there. What is going on here? Did lightning strike twice?
Go check it out if you want to try to get your blog syndicated. I don't know about the rest...that's just too cool to me. Oh ...just an update to this I also Believe that adding your RSS and atom feeds to as many sites as you can also seem to help generate more traffic and exposure.
