WHY NOT WEDNESDAY - How To Be A Guest Blogger On CacheCrazy.Com

TeamBlueBall

We have this whole little network of friends and family, they are all such super people. Sometimes we may not "touch base" for months and other times, we're firing off emails, comments and blogs posts so fiery, you would think it's the fourth of July. Why, we're just too busy for Facebook or tweets. One question that I often ask or drop the idea in conversation is, "would you like to do a guest blog post at CacheCrazy.Com? " and I often get mixed responses anywhere from, "I would love to" to no acknowledgement which means to me, "NO".

Now mind you, these are awesome folks who do all kinds of fun things and have such great stories to tell. So, I wonder, WHY NOT? I would think of it as an opportunity to share my adventures and that would be so cool. But still, nothing. Then I noticed that most of the folks who declined don't have a blog or ever had one OR/AND they don't want one. That's cool. But maybe they decline because they are not sure how to do one? Now, there I can help.

It's easier than ever to be a guest blogger on CacheCrazy.Com. All you really need is a great story and a few pictures. That's it! We'll do all the rest. Just email us the text typed right into the email or in a word program document and attache the pictures, done. Easy enough, right? What we'll do is layout the post so it looks really cool and add your pics. Then we'll set it up in the schedule for publish. We always let folks know when their post will publish so they can tell all their family and friends to watch for it and then on that day at 12:01 AM, they're published! We usually publish guest blogs on the weekends (Sat and Sun) but have on occasion posted on a Monday or during the week if that's OK with the author. After the post has been up through it's time period, we add the author's name and link to their post in the sidebar under Guest Blog Attributes. That's where it stays forever for others to view or for you to link to in the future. I also have been know to do a little sidebar graphic with a link to the authors post to be placed on any HTML foremat such as Blogger, Facebook, etc.

The biggest question I always get is, "what should I write about?" If you have followed CacheCrazy.Com for any period of time you know that we have such a large topic base. Everything from Zip Lining to Bow Camp to boating, family fun, events, locations and yes, geocaching too. Hiking, photography, fishing and you name it, it fits here at CacheCrazy if it relates to a lifestyle of having fun in the great outdoors. If you just get started you'd be surprised what will come to you. Go nuts, have fun, send pictures and enjoy seeing your work on one of today's hottest blogs, CacheCrazy.Com

BE A PART OF IT......

AND THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR GUEST AUTHORS!

Thee Seekers said...: I would love to do a guest blog. I love Geocaching and tell everyone that I see about it. I even have Geocaching personal checks...haha. My son did his senior project on Geocaching and received 100%, everyone I speak to loves the idea so I am glad to share in hopes that they will take up the new hobby as I did. It is addictive though I tell them, you'll want more and more and more. I love this website and think that the articles are great, so personable. Not the usual dictatorship articles that you read, they have a personality on their own, great job!; Sun Jul 08, 09:06:00 PM
