Peter, Tom,

The awards have been advertised this year on mefi, many of the nominees sites have put links directly to them on their own sites as a means to drum up support for people to vote for them, not to mention the fact that this is the THIRD year that keks has run the awards.

In both your cases, i would suggest that your own site’s exposure and content would benefit from being more active in the blogging community, seeing what else is out there, seeing what works and applying it to your own blogs. By participating in the community, you will become a part of it and won’t “miss out” on significant events such as these awards again.

Hiya!

Ive been blogging for a year and a half now, and have never been too savvy with getting my blog ‘out there’…. Can I pop mine into the blog awards? If anything, to see if I can increase my readership from 5 people a day to 10. Mwah!

Whats the best way to get your blog noticed? Loads seem to be way younger than mine but with huge audiences? Help a tech challenged gay lord from QLD

Cheers

As with a lot of these awards they only work if you happen across the website that’s running them. My blog is almost a year old and it was only by chance I came across your blog and found nominations had already closed. I suggest that maybe in the future you adverstise your awards a bit better so more new blogs have a chance too not just the few who are in the know.
