Admirable Business Bloggers and Blogs

It's been a tough month for posting to our blog due to the overwhelming success of our new Business Blog Directory. We're receiving about 50 link requests a day from business bloggers around the globe. What strikes me especially hard is the amount of talented bloggers whom have a deep passion about their industry.

Lets face it, updating and maintaining a good blog is hard work. With so many free blogging resources out there, anyone can start a blog for next to nothing and get out to the blogosphere. However, bloggers that can engage their audience and offer valuable resources throughout the web that others frequently read is truly remarkable.

Just today, we approved over 20 blogs from categories ranging from Internet marketing (that's a given, since they know the value of the link:) to relationship management.

My absolute favorite submission to date has to be the blogger who owns a soda distribution company who writes about Mountain Dew. Got to admire someone who's passionate about writing about that green stuff!

I want to send a couple of special thanks some of the talented online marketing bloggers who posted or linked to the new directory:

Rich Brooks at Business Blog Consulting
Lee Odden at Top Rank Results
Michael Bloch at Taming the Beast (Thanks for the feedback Michael!)
Mike Sansone at ConverStations
Steve Rubel at Micro Persuasion
And others that showed their support that i didnt list here!

So far the editorializing has gone smoothly. However, we can see that this is already presenting itself as a fulltime job. But regardless, the project is worth the effort!

We're going to be adding several new features within the next two weeks, so stay tuned. BTW- if you haven?t submitted yet and have a business blog don?t forget to send in your requests. We look forward to receiving them!

This will seem silly, but I did not realize it was you guys when I posted that link or submitted our blog!

At any rate, I wanted to let you know that I think you're doing a very nice job with the directory. The functionality and your speed with the editorial process is really impressive.
