Crocs (Crox) Alcoa (AA) and Yahoo (Yhoo) 1 Tip to Build Your Blog

My friend at Derek Semmler has an interesting post about writing about Crocs (CROX) the sandal/shoe that is being worn by an ever growing number of people including myself. I have the open toe kind that look a bit more normal and I like them although lately I have been waring a flip-flop by Reef that I love.

What Derek found was that his post on Crocs made it on the finance page of Yahoo and Google. This turned into over 100 visitors and many of them made comments. Fantastic news I say! What a great way to market. Target companies that are publicly traded. Get on these finance paged which will turn to great viewers and commentors to your blog.

So if it is Crox or Alcoa (AA), possibly a bit of Yhoo, it may be worth a try.

    Thanks for the mention Jake! It was a surprise to me when I saw the number of people arriving from the finance pages. I just posted about Best Buy so we will see if it happens again. :)

    No you are just posting posts on your site about companies that are talked about on financial pages such as finance.yahoo.com.
    You do this in hopes that your post gets picked up and sends visitors your way.
