Agreed. You need to spread your ‘wings’ if you want to fly. I have a facebook group, a linked in profile, a twitter profile & my images are hosted via Flickr.
From there I try to comment on my daily blogs that I follow and post in lots of newsgroups. I also leave business cards wherever I go. When I see a fishbowl at a restaurant, I place my card against the front so everyone can see my card.
A little Guerilla Marketing doesn’t hurt either!!

i just click on one of your maxblogpress advertisement posted here because they are so attractive !! If you have time, please visit my blog as well : http://www.spshop.biz
I have good advertisement as well. Hope it is great enough to attract you read it.
While outposts and frontiers are great ways to get new visitors to your site, some people spend more time than is necessary at thier “outpost” and neglect their “home”. I find myself in danger of this at times while trying to establish a good social network but still create great content for my blog…its a constant struggle, and then throw into the mix family and work life…too many balls in the air!:)
Does anyone else have this problem?
