Have you jumped on the blog memes bandwagon yet? A blog meme is a viral game where you generate links and interesting conversations through asking others to participate. A meme might help you in a few ways including:
- Generating traffic
- Generating backlinks to your site
- Enticing new blog members
- Making online friends
A popular meme that has been coasting through cyberspace for ages is the four things meme. It might say to name 4 jobs you’ve done in your life, 4 cities you’ve lived in, 4 places you’ve had a holiday and 4 indulgences you couldn’t live without. At the end, you’d pass the meme onto four people by identifying their blogs and suggest they link back to you in their post. If you start a meme, there’s a good chance that everyone who participates will link back to your post. It can be great fun in a viral way and if you find other memes and hop onto them by self-nomination and linking back to the original post, you can make new friends.
The Meme Payoff
The backlinks will be present, you’ll probably get new visitors and you might even get permanent subscribers or people to buy whatever you’re selling online.
A meme might seem like a time waster if you get invited to participate in too many but participating some selective ones could be helpful in terms of pleasing your subscribers who are kind enough to link to you and comment on your blog.
Have a most outstanding day.
