Editorial Staff · December 21, 2015 ·

While starting to write this post it got me thinking that I’ve not done anything different to promote my content online and decided to give Flipboard a crack.

I read my daily news and feeds from Flipboard and given the number of users on the platform if enough people subscribe to my magazine on blogging (All About Blogging) it can drive a great deal of traffic not just to my blog but the various blogs I have syndicated within the mag.

Flipboard acts like a content syndicating or aggregating tool that allows you to read various articles from various platforms. I have some top blogs added to the group and have decided to give it a 3 month run to see if it can really drive traffic to bloggers.

So if you run a blog that focuses on marketing, blogging, SEO, email marketing or social media send me a link and I will start adding content. To make it simpler if you have a Flipboard account leave your username in the comments section and I will add you as a contributor to the mag.
