Hey Bush! Thanks for participating. I added you to my list. And looks like you forgot to tag!

@Forest – Well since you asked – I’ll give you the full rundown. Excuse me if you already know some of this already. Memes are usually innocent looking ways to either connect with your readers or to get links back to your site or both. Grace over at neonscent.com started this one, and you can see that by the link in the middle of the tips labeled “blogging tip”. What she’s trying to do here is improve her site’s ranking for that keyword in search engines. It’s SEO 101, “…have links to your site with the keyword in the anchor text” Again, excuse me if you knew that already. (#):)

To answer the question you asked (#):), you tag people by just saying at the bottom of the post, “I’ve tagged Mr. XXX, Mrs. XXX, etc etc” And usually you have a link to their sites when you mention their name. The only problem with this is if they don’t see that you’ve tagged them, they may not ever get the message. I guess you could send them an e-mail, but not everyone likes participating in these things, so that may not be the best thing for you to do.

Does that make sense?

Sorry to be naive!

I’ve just posted on my site with my tip. How do I tag others? What do you mean?

Cheers,

Forest.
