Local Niche Site Support Group Forming

Vic at BloggerUnleashed is really advocating a local niche support group for us bloggers that are creating local niche sites.

The problem Vic outlined in his post Local Niche Bloggers Support Group is that he is battling some health issues, plus his family life, running numerous site, taking car of BloggingZoom and other things. He feels extremely strong about this, and so do I.

I have talked to Vic and he has asked me to take a leadership role in creating and monitoring a local niche support group.

So, here is what I propose.

I am creating a page on this site for local niche support. I am asking a few things from you in order to help.

Please use the contact form on this site and give me the following information:

1. Your URL
2. What anchor text you would like
3. Your BloggingZoom user name - you MUST have this!
4. A blurp (description) of your local niche site

That’s it!

I will verify that the page is a legit content page and once that is done, I will post it. I ask for each of your support in monitoring it also because if a site becomes “junk”, we don’t want it bringing down the rest of our sites.

Your next step should be to head over to BZ and add each of your fellow local niche marketers to your friends list. This way you can keep up with them and help support their submissions as well.

One important tip with Blogging Zoom. If you are away for a day or two and miss some of the posts from a particular user, did you know that you can go to their profile and click on their submitted posts? This will show you the submitted post for that user and also let you “Zoom” it right there. Great way to quickly zoom each others posts!

If you have any other information that you would like to see, please let me know, and I prefer that you leave that in the comments section so everyone knows what has been submitted.

Thanks for your help and support in this learning curve for me, and I hope to not disappoint you with this!

Plus, there are a few more surprised coming soon!

I am really looking forward to this page. I am so lame when it comes to setting up a site. This is going to help tons.

I have my site up but needs so much done to it and I sure could use some fresh eyes.

Vic has mentioned for me to get Skype but I have not as of yet done that. I am gone 12 hrs a day from home and there is only so much I can get done during the week. Having a support group is going to give me the opportunity to pop in when time is available.

Thanks for helping us all with our local niches.

Denise, you are welcome, and if you need help with Skype, let me know via the contact form and I can probably help you out and get you started via email.

Hi Elliott,

I just submitted my site in my eagerness to get it done and totally missed this post. I failed to mention a couple of things.
My BZ user name is = successwriter, the keyword I target with my blog is = Yeppoon Chronicle and the description is = “The Yeppoon Chronicle is dedicated to serve you with local news, information and events. Whether you are a local or a tourist you will find something of interest in the Yeppoon Chronicle.”

Hope this is ok and sorry about the mistake.

Is the support group up yet? I am anxious to see what others are doing.
