What are some examples of viral blogs?
Seth Godin has one. (Remember that idea virus download?) He also talks about others that he’s seen. Business Week’s Blogspotting has a good eye for them too. But it’s not just about the big dogs.
On March 8th, Chris Pearson started the Indie Virus and thousands of quality blogs have been affected.
Paul Chaney’s Business Blog Consulting may have contracted this virus. Nancy P Redford’s Practical Marketing Tips could also have it, not to mention, Marshallk, Podblaze, Intent Blog, Jason Preston, Conversational Recruiting, Abundance Secrets, Just Ask Marc, Language Translation, Tim Bossie, Michel Fortin,, Sales Mindset, and Dan at Vitamin Maniac. I’m sure I’m forgetting at least a dozen people. It basically means that I’m mistaken about how popular your blog is so I thought you were already getting your due.
What’s the Indie Virus? I would tell you but I really want you to visit all the affected sites. Suffice it to say that it’s genius idea of viral blog marketing that you can participate in too.

Subscribers, I apologize if you’re getting notices twice. I forgot to disable updates while I was changing the site over to the new look and format. The feed is back to normal. Everything else should be redirected by early Saturday morning.

Ah, the viral blog. She is like a melody you can’t quite remember. You wouldn’t be able to hum it but you certainly know the song when you hear it. She’s a light breeze on a hot Vegas day. She brings you a smile like the one when you make what is normally a week’s profit in a day.
How do you know if your blog is, how do you say… virulent?
(I’ve got a whole french accent as I write this in my head. Scary.)
You know your blog is virulent when:
- Whatever marketing you do for it has an exponetial effect
- A growing percentage of your audience bookmarks your site
- Your first-time visitor traffic is sticking, and you get more and more new visitors each month
- If you try to leave your blog for a while, you start getting angry emails
- Your site is linked from hundreds of places that have little to do with your topic matter, and several that are directly related to you
- Your blog posts are commented and linked at other sites
A virus is something you get, but can’t help but share. Think about that while I cook up the next portion.
