Horror Blips - An Invaluable Tool For Bloggers

Hey guys, it's Johnny from Freddy In Space. I made a post on my blog sometime last year about Horror Blips and I wanted to repost it on here for anyone who hasn't been introduced to the site and what it does yet. While some bloggers don't like the 'vote up' aspect of it, I find Horror Blips to be a very valuable tool in the horror blogger's toolbelt.

HORROR BLIPS

Horror Blips is not only an invaluable resource to all horror bloggers out there but it's also just as invaluable a resource to anyone who loves the horror genre. It's basically like Digg or StumbleUpon, except that it's tailored exclusively to all things horror. Horror bloggers register their blogs with the site and each new post they make is then immediately added to the Horror Blips homepage where other users can vote up or vote down those posts based on whether they like them or not. If people like your shit, it stays at the top of the page. If your shit stays at the top of the page, you get more hits. It's that simple. But whether you're a horror blogger or not, Horror Blips is THE place to go for all the latest horror movie news and all the latest horror blog posts from around the blogosphere. Thanks to the site, I never miss a beat or a single interesting blog post.

Maybe at some point Carl or myself will post a list of links to all of our Horror Blips accounts so we can all connect on there!

Tools for Bloggers: SwagBucks

SwagBucks is an excellent online resource to help you earn free online cash that can be turned into gift cards or other great prizes. Essentially, SwagBucks serves as a standard search engine, which can be accessed through their homepage or through an installed toolbar for your internet browser. As you randomly search using the SwagBucks search engine throughout the day, you will be awarded with online cash redeemable at the website for an array of awesome items, particularly Amazon gift cards in a variety of denominations. SwagBucks can also be earned through referrals, newsletter promotions, and special events on the SwagBucks Facebook and Blogger pages. This is a great way to help reduce your monthly spending for very little effort. In a given month, I generally earn $5-$10 in Amazon cash just for using SwagBucks as my preferred search engine. That's 1-2 FREE DVDs a month!

Be sure to check out their site at the link below, and feel free to use my referral code to receive 5 FREE SwagBucks just for joining:
