7 Out of 10 Blog In the Nude
November 23, 2009
Hello, fellow Group Members!
This will either infuriate you or amuse you – one hopes the latter.
It’s a frivolous little experiment with ten faux headlines to see which kind of outrageous title readers might be most likely to click on.
I need every advantage I can get.
Because starting Monday, I’m the Baby Boomer entrant, versus a couple of dozen SEO-savvy young ‘uns, in the Great Blog-Off contest at Community Marketing.
Here’s the link, if you haven’t read about it yet. (Link now disabled.)
Not only am I the Veteran – or Evil Cougar, depending on your viewpoint – in this bunch, I will probably be the contestant representing CONTENT, as opposed to quantitative formulae for blog optimization, or whatever the latest incomprehensible jargon is.
In fact, the blogs I will post will be very serious ones, indeed, elaborating upon the political and economic theme of Baby Boomers as modern history’s Angriest Generation, a phrase I’ve coined and hope will become a buzz-phrase on the Internet from this day forward.
But I will mix up my serious blogs with some frivolous ones harking back to my days as a heavy-volume tabloid writer – an era in my life I look back upon with much fondness and nostalgia.
Want to help me by making suggestions about my campaign for top-of-the-heap status in the Blog-Off?
I truly welcome your advice and any assistance you can give me.
If I’m elected, you may have a Cabinet post or any Ambassadorship of your choosing.
Leave a comment here, or write to me at (E-mail address given).
Warmest regards – or to you Kappas, Loyally,
Ellen Brandt
