Blog Of The Day – Day 11
August 10th, 2009
OK, things are getting tense now as we move towards the finishing line of the Blog Of The Day Awards.
Today’s winner is one that has upped his game significantly during the course of Alex Jeffreys’ traffic competition.
A few weeks ago, he felt that his blog wasn’t cutting the mustard, so he made some changes. It looks quite different from Heidi’s (yesterday’s winner) but it works for me … as always, no one answer is “right”.
And he wins today’s award not only because of that, but also because he has recently been finding and focussing on corners of the internet marketing landscape that are potentially extremely useful and/or profitable, and then passing the good word along. His recent video about trendrr.com is a great example of this.
His latest post has a series of “how-to” documentary videos that look over his shoulder during the construction of his first Squidoo “lens”. I have toyed with Squidoo in the past, but it’s something that I’ve neglected a little recently, so it was interesting to watch these and see how things have changed recently. What I like about this is that it’s “warts and all” … in other words, you are genuinely getting the same raw experience that he had, even when things don’t quite seem to go the way he expects !
He’s also got a fascinating product lined up for a launch in October. The Science of the Sale hooks in to his own personal knowledge of the psychology of selling. He’s really moving ahead on several fronts and this makes his blog a site to watch.
So for all-round improvement and for massive future potential, today’s Blog Of The Day Award goes to Alan “The Schwa” Harris for alanharrisonline.com.
Congratulations Alan, your Blog Of The Day badge is on the way !

Hi Rog,
Great idea with the daily awards. I’m sure you are already starting to see a lift in traffic as everyone keeps up to date. Give them something to come back for. Inspired.
See you in the AJ forum.
