How To Quickly Propel Your Blog (and your Business) Beyond the Competition
Manage episode 207740140 series 1125987
This week, Stacey Soleil and I had the pleasure of interviewing Mike Stelzner, Founder of Social Media Examiner and author of the new book: “Launch: How To Quickly Propel Your Business Beyond the Competition.”
Now for those of you that don’t know, Social Media Examiner is ranked as one of the world’s Top 100 business blogs on both Technorati and AdAge — a position they landed just two weeks after launch — and to date, they have amassed over 80,000 email subscribers in as little as 18 months. Needless to say, that’s pretty impressive…
Join us as we discuss:
- How Mike started Social Media Examiner back in 2009 with a couple of guest bloggers and wielding a camera at Blogworld Expo,
- Their process for receiving and vetting guest blog posts,
- How and why Social Media Examiner remains a commercial free zone (no advertisements on the site),
- How they monetize Social Media Examiner with live events, and
- Mike shares is favorite #hashtag
