Hi, I find it really hard to link to other blogs in my articles. Why? I never seem to find blogarticles, which cover exactly what I want to convey. I know it's a good thing to link with trackbacks (more backlinks) and I see that every successful blog have at least five outgoing links to other blogs in one article. So, where do you find the right blogarticles to link to? I assume you also look at blog popularity, pagerank, etc. Thx for some tips, Dantes
If the article is good, even though it may not be from a popular, high page rank blog, there is no reason why you shouldn't link to it. It is a resource for your readers, and if it will benefit them, then you should link to it. Try technorati for blogs similar to yours.
My own experience. My blogs reflect my life, work and experience. I start from something I liked or something I hated ... I don't look too much for topic elsewhere, since all I need to do is think about my own stuff
Technorati. Search the tags for what you want to search for. Other than that just friends and my rss feeds
I don't link to "blogs" much (in posts), because I don't read them for what I'm doing. Most of my main blog's link outs go to official sources (Yahoo, SEC, BLS, NYT, etc), because that's where I get my information. But, I'll link to anything that's of value to my readers. The blog itself doesn't have to be like mine (topic/etc). It just needs a good piece of info for the article I'm writing.
Google Blogsearch is handy. You can search for blogs updated with certain keywords in the last hour, day, week, all time, etc.
