BlogLight.ning - The New Social Network Just for Bloggers!

bloglight.ningI have previously written about how people are your greatest resource. BlogLight.ning (pronounced Blog-Lightning) is the new social network which I can see becoming the No.1 place for bloggers to meet.

BlogLight.ning Is More than Just a FaceBook for Bloggers

By now almost all of us have a facebook profile, but what if we actually want to use that for ‘real’ world friends and not blogging contacts?

BlogLight.ning offers the solution (this isn’t sponsored, I created BlogLight.ning). BlogLight.ning has all the usual features of a social networking site where you can send PMs and add bloggers as friends as well as a forum where are you allowed to use live links from day 1.

Because BlogLight.ning is just for bloggers, you can expect questions and threads about blogging to be answered quickly and with expertise.

Still Not Convinced?

If you still think you can get by without joining BlogLight.ning then there is one last trick up BlogLight.ning’s electrically charged sleeve, and that is the ability to create your very own BlogLight.ning.com blog.

But I already have a Blog? That’s the Whole Point… isn’t it?

You would be right there, however, on your free BlogLight.ning blog it is perfectly acceptable to offer a snippet of your original blog post; a teaser just to get us interested and then you can drop a link to the full article!

This gives you free traffic and links! All the latest blog posts and forum threads are featured on the front page so you will get lots of attention, ensuring it will be worth your while.

Signing up is free of course. I hope you like it and don’t forget to tell other bloggers about it. We could all do with a slice of the communally baked pie.

Summary

Ultimately, BlogLight.ning is about networking, communicating and meeting other bloggers. The fact that you actually get some free promotion out of the process is a by-product.

BlogLight.ning is growing fast.

Start building your network of blogging contacts now.

Thanks for commenting on my blog, Matt.
Your implementation of the Bloglight.Ning network is a stroke of pure genius. I’m kicking myself for not having already thought of it. This network has real potential. Let’s get the word out. Also, I have a suggestion: Let’s think about starting a forum for bloggers. Let’s use Invision Power Boards, SMF or vBulletin. You could call it the BlogLight.ning Forum for Bloggers, by Bloggers.
Join the Conversation!!

This is a terrific blog, Matt! You have some really great articles here, which is why I ahve just subscribed to this blog.

I’ll be back!
Ready….Set….BLOG !!!!!!!!

Thanks for the encouragement Mark!
I have plans to get a ‘real’ forum to replace the rather simple one at BlogLight.ning once it’s got going with more members. You can get BlogLight.ning badges to display on your blog if you want to help build the network.
