Happy Belated Birthday to TechZi

I got tagged by Derrick over at Business Blogging Tips. So here it is. Thanks for the tag!

Last week at TechZi, they celebrated a big 1st Birthday with a SEO-fest. Sort of a Meme - they said, “Social interaction. Community. Communication. Consideration. And what did I tell you? It paid off, and is still doing to the day. Except I feel it’s now pretty safe to add yet another item to that list. Collaboration.

This isn’t complicated stuff. It’s a link train. I link to you, you link to people, they link to more people, those people link to their friends who link to their friends who link to their… Yeah. It’s viral. And in commemoration of TechZi’s first birthday, alongside the nifty competition we’re running, you can take part in our free link train! Here’s the deal

Geek Train - All aboard!

1 - Write a short paragraph at the beginning of your post and linkback to the blog(s) that put you on the list in the paragraph. You MUST do this. No-one plans on getting slapped for duplicate content any time soon, do they?

2 - Next, copy the list of originals below COMPLETELY and add it to your own blog. If you’d like a different keyword for your blog then change it, when you do your post, and it should pass to most blogs with that keyword, provided the train keeps on spreading.

3 - Take the adds from the blog that added you and place them in the “Originals” list.

4 - Add at least three new favourite blogs of yours to keep the train going, e-mail the blog owners (or comment on one of their posts) and insist that they post.
