Can sheepy bloggers be shepherds?
Traditionally, we think of shepherds as the leaders of sheep. But at some point in time, the shepherds themselves have been sheep, and continue to be. It’s the same with bloggers. While some are fortunate to be leaders in their niches, fact is, they continue to read other blogs to find new ideas and ways to enhance their style, look, and content. They’re looking for the next best thing to follow.
You don’t have to have a large herd of sheep to be a shepherd. Once a lamb bleats for you, you’ve found a calling. Take for example a new blogger, Hafiz Dhanani, who is just 14 years old, and just started a brand new blog – Make Money Blogging. Plus, already he’s had a guest post the John Cow blog about how to increase your blog profile and make more money!
Not every newbie can score such a hit, and the fact is that by writing that post, he is increasing awareness about his new blog, and piquing people’s interest.
By getting John Cow’s endorsement via the guest post opportunity, Hafiz has now secured a level of shepherd status, and surely he’ll be planting more posts on his blog so that he can increase his number of readers. Simultaneously, Hafiz will also be reading other people’s blogs to get his own nuggets of information. At the time of me writing this post, he only has one post on his blog, but I will surely be returning to see what else he has to say.

I get a fair amount of visits at least according to the stats but its just so hard to get those visits to turn into comments. I think its sort of the market though, I find west indians dont like to comment, they love to lurk.
