Hey! I just came across a website that’s aimed at helping bloggers promote their sites with a very unique advertising. The site is called Blog’em UP.
All you need to do to begin advertising your website is to submit your blog to Blog’em up. List your url and a description of your site when you register your site.
You’re website will begin by being listed in the first big image area on the front page. You actually have to purchase this spot in order to advertise your blog, and you’ll need to submit your own images in sizes of 250 x 250 px or 125 x 125 px.
Right now they are only accepting English language websites.
Just to explain the process – The top image value is $10 USD, every time someone buys the top spot the value will decrease by $1 USD until it reaches the value of $1 USD. After that the value goes back to $10 and the cycle begins again.
When you purchase the $10 USD advertising spot you’ll be required to blog about the Blog’em up Website and the one other blog that’s listed on the Blog’em up site before your image will be displayed on the front page. Once you do that the top image value changes over to a $9 value. The person who purchase the $9 USD advertising spot must blog about the Blog’em up website and two other sites on the Blog’em before their image will be listed. This process continues in this manner alway the way through the cycle down to a $1USD advertising space.
Any image that reaches the bottom area will be shifted over to the showcase page and will stay there as long as the Blog’em up website exists.
By using this system you’ll not only end up increasing blog traffic to your site, you’ll also be promoting fellow bloggers and they in turn will promote you. This sounds like a fantastic way to increase traffic to your site.
Go visit the Blog’em Up website to see what it looks like. For $10 or less and a little bit of blogging I think this is a fantastic opportunity to promote your site and other peoples sites as well.
What a great idea!
