Cheatin Fridays | How to Cheat On Your Blog Posts Today

Okay, today is cheating Fridays.

I have renamed it.

You will comply.

I’m going to talk about a bunch of random things marginally related to traffic because I can’t sleep, mostly due to soreness, and partly due to the fact that I’m not satisfied with the translated copy of the videos I have uploaded. So I’m firing up Camtasia, and doing them over.

No, Dr. Mani, I am not going to end up back in the hospital. Promise.

Anyhoo, the first topic of the day is how you, too, can totally cheat on your blog posts, by which I mean, you can get total credit for doing a great service to the blogging community and also incorporate said service into a post. You’ll be a hero, a scholar and a lady/gentleman. It will totally change your whole entire life and is absolutely free of charge. It will make you attract women and/or men from every corner of the globe and make you sixty-seven point three Kajillion dollars.

By now, you’re experiencing the suspense and build up. I learned that in sales letter school. I’m supposed to distract you with smoke and mirrors by saying I’ll come back to what the secret is later after I tell you something else first. That will whip you into a frenzy, yes, just like it’s doing right now. Then you’ll become really, REALLY excited with the present news, while simultanously experiencing the most delicious anticipation for the news I was going to tell you before! Hype is a religion!

At this point, I supply you with the answer to the big question and you experience such relief that you would buy what I’m selling. Only with your great luck, in this next limited sentence only, I’m going to tell you the secret for free! That secret is that you can publicize the SNCR/Marketwire blogger survey!

Act now and you will save an entire blog post by announcing it to all of your friends. Save even more brain cells for destruction during Friday night drinking when you just leave your link to my post, telling your readers only that they must, MUST read this because it is hilarious.

Sincerely,

PS- I laughed at this too, then I realized as I was writing it that it worked on me. Which is even funnier, that I actually have to play games with myself sometimes to justify spending my own money on something I desire or require in life.
