The cool thing about that is that you are getting your content out in front of their viewers." Jennifer Salter "We live in an image-based society." Jennifer Salter "I think you have to ask yourself a couple of questions before you decide if you are going to host a link party. It's a lot of work. It's not something you just decide to do and if you want it to truly grow, you're going to have to put the time and effort behind it. And you also have to ask yourself, 'why are you doing it?'" Taylor Bradford "If you are dropping your own links, you are hoping that you will potentially have more eye balls on your posts." Taylor Bradford "You always want to be asking yourself, 'Is this beneficial to my ideal reader?' 'Is this answering their questions?' 'Is this providing them value?' Because those are the people, your readers, are the people that are continuing to come back to your website." Taylor Bradford RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED *Links below may contain Affiliate Links.
