Blogging Hot Seat - Submit Your Blog for A Quickie Blog Review

Want to sit on the blogging hot seat? I'm prepping for my business blogging presentation at the Niche Affiliate Marketing System event on Sunday. First I'm giving a presentation about blogging, then I'm conducting a one hour blogging hot seat where I will review 2-3 blogs (22 blogs were submitted for consideration by the participants!) and demonstrate how they can be improved and what makes an effective, optimized blog.

You'll be able to "watch" vicariously if you follow the #NAMS twitter stream 10 am - 1 pm ET.

Then I got an idea (actually it was inspired by a conversation with my colleague Rachna Jain) to offer Build a Better Blog readers a gift -- an opportunity to get a quickie blog review... I guarantee I can find 3-5 things on your blog that can be improved so you get better results.

Here's the deal.

If you would like to be considered for a quickie blogging hot seat review, post your blog URL in the comments section and tell me in 1-2 sentences why I should consider choosing your blog.

I can fit 2-3 blogs into my schedule.

I will do a 5-10 minute screencast video of the blog review.

One condition: You must agree to let me post the review on this blog and share it on video distribution sites so I can demonstrate for others how they can also improve their blogs. Without your permission to use the review in public, your blog will not be considered. I think think that's fair, don't you? After all, the investment for a one on one 75 minute blog review with me is $497 and I'm going to gift you real, usable feedback for free!

Plus, the blogs I review will get a lot more visibility which may give you a boost in traffic and the possibility of attracting new readers.

OK, wanna play? I will make my selection next week when I'm back in the office after my Atlanta trip. I'll notify the bloggers I select and confirm your agreement to let me share the blog review in public and then I'll schedule and let you know the next steps.

Submit your blog now!

Excellent opportunity. Would love your opinion on my blog;

Why You Should Review: I think you should review my blog because it's aim is to be read like a magazine which is unique to most blogs. It's designed not to be a hobby blog and is poised to become a media property.

Thank you for your consideration.

I've been blogging for just a short time and I'm wondering what direction to go in or if I'm going in too many directions. My blog is a little business and a little personal.

Denise:
Based on your session on SMMU, I changed my blog to make it more conversational. When you said that "blogging is the new way to market your business," being a marketer, it hit a nerve and gave me more passion to blog. Would value your review to help improve it further.
Thanks for your generous opportunity!

Hi Denise,
I would love to see how someone else in the industry, a seasoned veteran, views my blog. Would be great to get that feedback - I'm always looking for ways to improve on what I do.

You mention a "gift" for readers. We are affiliate marketers who show Facebook users how to share real gifts from Amazon. Our niche is to facilitate the sales of gifts to support birthdays, weddings, baby births and holidays using online party games.
We would invite your critical review...

The Zen Birdfeeder blog is approaching a 3rd Blogoversary and is a perfect candidate for critical review. I try to maintain a nice balance between marketing tool and personal blog but feels it weighs in heavy on the personal side. A review with a marketing eye will help the balance. Thanks for considering it.
