Asking for Alltop

23 Aug
2008

Well, I made the cut with all the cool kids in the blogging world. I'm now listed in the modern church section at alltop.com.

Featured in Alltop

I won't lie to you, I flat out used a Biblical principle and the power of Twitter to get in. "How's that?" you say. I just flat out direct messaged Guy Kawasaki and asked "What are the chances of getting my blog listed on church.alltop.com?"

Ask and you shall receive. It's a lesson for us all. If you don't take the initiative, you might get left behind. Take the risk and ask for something you want. If you don't have it, and you don't get it via asking, you haven't lost anything.

Thanks to Guy Kawasaki for the honor.

@brent(inWorship):

Yeah, after reading the FAQ where it all but spells it out that one of the ways to get in is to just ask, I went for it. Sometimes reading the instructions pays off.

Congrats to you too.

@Tyler:

I've seen maybe about a 5% jump in hits this week. I am at the bottom of the page, so I'm sure the peeps up at the top get more mileage out of it.

The real question is whether or not my content draws return visitors or RSS subs.

My view, (nearly) any linkage is good linkage.
