Online Sales Success

A really cool recent find I’d like to mention is MyBlogLog. You can find it in my sidebar on the right. How it works is that you sign up for the service(free) and list your blog(s) and post a picture or avatar of yourself. Then you drop the code snippet into your sidebar. When visitors who are members visit your blog their picture is added to the display. As new visitor get added, older ones fall off.

Now for the first time one can see the faces of your visitors not some anonymous entry in your web analytics program. I don’t know about you, but that moves the friendliness of the blogosphere up a giant notch.

Seeing the picture of my visitors really makes me curious. I just have to click. That takes me to their MyBlogLog page where I can see their blog site(s) and visit them. If I like what I see then I can join their community. Nothing like getting the approval of your fellow bloggers.

In a few weeks I have discovered many excellent bloggers that I would never have know otherwise. That is the breakthrough feature of MyblogLog. It make it so easy to met your virtual neighbor.

And that is what blogging is all about; creating community.

MyBlogLog is now a part of Yahoo.

Cord Silverstein has written an excellent primer on getting the most out of MyBlogLog, entitled MyBlogLog 101

Let me know of your experience with MyBlogLog.
