Here are some useful blogging tips I managed to discover over the week. I would recommend you to take a look at them. I’m sure you will get some useful tips to help you in your blog.

• If you think that blogging is all about making your next post, think again. Blogging is more than just that, especially if you want your blog to become successful. Here’s a useful post from Karlo of PinoyBlogger.com where he shared his views on Blog Marketing as an integral part of Blogging.
• One of my favorite reads this week is a post from Garry Conn where he shared his Ultimate SEO Trick. I don’t like to spoil the thrill so go find out yourself.
• Kevin over at BuzzNetworker.com made an interesting article on the Psychology Behind Design. Find out why it’s not helpful to design something that is going to function in a different manner than what its learned function is.

I also would like to remind everyone of the two contest I’m currently running here at Blogging Mix.  I hope you spend some time to participate. The contests have some really interesting prizes. Good luck.

• Last Friday (Feb. 22, 2008) I’ve announced that I’m giving away four copies of FruitfulTime Task Manager, a useful software which will help you get organized. Check the contest post for more information.
• If you haven’t joined yet, I’m inviting you to join another contest I’m running which will end on March 30, 2008. I’m giving a 2-year hosting service + a new domain name + premium Wordpress theme to one lucky participant. This contest is ideal if your blog is still hosted at Blogger and you want to move to a more serious blogging platform… Wordpress.

That’s it for this Sunday’s Link Love. Next Sunday, I’ll be featuring posts related to making money online. If you have a post that shares legitimate tips on making money online, kindly drop their URL through the comment and I’d be glad to have them included in the next Sunday Link Love.
