DESCRIPTION
Classify your cross-linking strategy. People first finds your content because someone else links to you, but they find the rest of your content because you link to yourself. This presentation suggests classifying cross-linking strategies as nebulas, asteroids, solar systems, black holes, or constellations.TRANSCRIPT

Now...
... your content was on your website.
• Maybe you had a list there of stories published elsewhere.
• Maybe you created a photo gallery, by hand or with software you installed.
Once...

That’s a lot of arms for a starfish.

Different content for different circles
Comment by Rachel Happe on March 25, 2008 @ 5:03 pm
Hmmmm…the very idea of FriendFeed makes me nervous - it assumes that I want to share everything with everyone…and maybe I’m old fashioned but I just don’t. I don’t want to share my wedding pictures on Flickr with business associates and most of my friends are not all that interested in my LinkedIn connections. I share different content with different circles for a reason - mostly because of what the different circles really care about. Community is contextual. Not that I am anti-FriendFeed but unless I can filter, I am actually not interested in aggregating.

Darren Rowse’s“other blog”
“But what about my other blog Digital Photography School?
“DPS is a blog that I don’t really associate my name with very much. Like I mentioned above I mention myself on my About page and use it in passing on weekly newsletter emails but my approach on this blog is much less about aligning my name with it and letting content speak for itself. It is a step up from anonymous blogging - but it’s much much less than I do here on ProBlogger. ”
