I was over reading my friends blog yesterday when I seen an article he wrote and dedicated to our social community blog engage. After reading the article I realized how much our community really supports one another and from experience in the blogosphere this is truly a rare siting. Building relationships online and gaining new readers is never easy. The market is very competitive and definitely not forgiving.

You know as well as I do blogging is exhausting and at times extremely overwhelming. We have committed ourselves to complete strangers and daily we are obligated to fulfill a promise of unique contest and interesting articles. Similar to you I also offer my readers a promise. When you come to blogengage we have a promise to your our visitors and loyal members. We promise to have new blog articles daily, we promise to provide a spam free environment to the best of our ability and we promise to create the best online social networking community for bloggers on the web.

We offer a unique environment to find bloggers within the same niche as yours. We offer the opportunity to promote your blog articles to new readers. Blog Engage is a true social web 2.0 environment that only helps improve your blog as oppose to other no follow networks.

Have you ever seen the rush affect that blogengage can provide? It’s an amazing feeling when you see a popular article get 15 or 20 comments on it all coming from blogengage. I know many of our members have felt the affect before and continue to as our community grows larger.

I get many e-mails and private messages in the forums asking me how to get more votes and how to get their story to the front page. I must admit it’s really easy but you have to follow a few simple guidelines to be successful here at blogengage. Perhaps this is a good spot to compile the list.

Introduce yourself - I think a great way to start your blogengage community profile is to write a blog article introducing yourself to our community and then submitting it.  Tell the community about yourself and why you have joined blogengage. Tell us about your blog, your goals and perhaps some of your favorite blogs you currently read.

The point I wanted to make in today’s article is about you, our members. I want you to know that I know our community would be nothing without you and I respect you as members and friends. I didn’t build this network to make money I built it to help other bloggers. Don’t get me wrong making money has been fun but I did not start blogengage for this reason. I’ve grown very fond of our community and enjoy socially interacting with all of you.

Be sure to add me as a friend, bbrian017 and if interested you can join my social group.
