The Secret of Networking With Bloggers

by Josh Garcia on August 18, 2010

Networking with bloggers

Have you ever wonder what it would take to network with the true players in your niche?

If I ask you right now, “What influential individual would you like to network with right now?” I know some of you within a split second you’ll be able to give me a name.

By now you should know who are the influential people that own blogs within your niche.

I want you to know that you can connect with them and build a relationship. There is POWER behind this folks!

The only reason why I can say this, I’m going to be working on a product with an A-List well known blogger. When you are able to network, you never know what kind of joint venture will be created.

Here is another question, “When you see a powerhouse list created from an influential individual, Do you just read and move on? or Do you save it and study it?”

Do understand that by developing relationship with other bloggers it will take your blog and business to another level.

Therefore, you should put a schedule in place for networking. I know most of you put a schedule together to create your blog post, video marketing, or article marketing.

Now, it is time to move yourself to another level.

Here is another powerhouse post that I’m going to share with you:

The Ultimate Guide To Networking With Bloggers

Here is a list of everything you need to be a successful networker. Remember, bloggers are all people, just like you. With that said, this is not just a guide for networking with bloggers, but with people as a whole…

The key is to make sure you make it fun and not stressful. Networking is fun when you are meeting and interacting with people.

Some of you are right now saying there is no way I could do this. I will say, “Go face your challenge and network with an influential individual!”

Great share Josh! It was an awesome read. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.

One quick note is that every person of influence that you network with, gets you closer to someone of more influence. That means that these relationships can have a much larger impact than you can see at first.

BTW, congratulations on your JV with the other blogger!

Thanks again for sharing this.

That was an exceptional post you shared there Josh.

I’m a big fan of networking with other influencial bloggers. Not only does build a relationship, but it also allows us to grow and also become influencial.

As John Maxwell says, “Leadership is being influencial.”

Have a good day,

Hey Josh,

Good stuff on the JV, look forward to hearing how it goes.

It does get tough trying to schedule time to visit all my networking friends blogs. But I try to visit because the relationships we make are so important.

Thanks for the list, it was very informative.

Have a great day,
Tommy D.

Hi Tommy,

It’s amazing the relationship that is being created. It’s hard to visit everyone’s blog and try to run a business as well. I wish I could visit everyone’s stuff.

Michael B Wilbraham August 18, 2010 at 1:15 pm

WOW Josh, where do you get this stuff?

Very interesting indeed & I certainly got to thinking about how influential people have & still are shaping my life, not only in my network marketing but in other aspects as well.

The very tribe we are all members of has influential bloggers who contribute to my growth every time I get onto their (your!) blog to read a post.

It is really amazing!
Stay inspired…

Excellent post Josh, thanks for sharing.

As you mentioned networking should be enjoyable. Mingling with like-minded people is fun, and the fact that both parties can make money by exchanging profitable ideas isn’t a bad deal either :)

Never lose sight of the fact that networking with the Big Dawgs is a powerful form of leveraging. Tap into the valuable knowledge base of an expert and reach a new network as you provided valuable comments on their blog.

Hi Josh

it does take some time and organisation to get your networking going smoothly. I agree that it should not become a chore and it is important to be genuine and sincere when commenting. We are not doing it just to rack up the backlinks.

Hey Josh

I am about click the link in this post, but I wanted to answer your question first.

As you know I have been away from blogging for awhile (I’m now back btw). During my time away I connected with a person who has and is helping me grow my business.

He is well known in the industry as a master in his field. His knowledge in what he does is second to none. In one conversation with him and the realization of what is possible was made very evident.

Networking with top leaders in your field is the quickest way to grow.

Congrats on the guest post on Ty’s blog. Awesome buddy

Great post, Josh! I am going to go check out the link that you gave from the ProBlogger, he is a great resource! I just finished his blogging challenge and I really grew a lot as a blogger through that month.

Connecting with other bloggers is so important! In my blogging schedule I am sure to put that in each week because it is so important and so valuable!

At first it was certainly intimidating to post on the blog of some of the big guys but as with everything else in this business pushing through fears brings great results. I’m really grateful for the networking that I have been able to establish!
