One of the things I’ve been considering for a while is having an official comment policy.
It’s not because I feel I need one, per se – the community here is one of the best on the web.

Shape Your Newsletter
As part of the “relaunch” of this blog – for relaunch, read “redesign” and “shiny new things” – I’ll be starting a newsletter soon.

Why You’ll Never See Ads on DannyBrown.me

It doesn’t have to be that way though. Here’s the six step process I use for blogger outreach, that gives me astronomically higher success than most outreaches that PR firms will run for you.
