5 Days Of Blog Promotion Using SeededBuzz

Day 1

What is a Seed?
Planting is a Seed is you telling other bloggers about your blog post and inviting them to continue the conversation on their blog and link back to you.

The better the Seed conversation and the more extendable / debatable it is, the more other bloggers will Buzz about it on their blogs and link to you. That's why suggesting ideas on how a Seed conversation could be developed is a good idea.

What is Buzz?
Buzz happens when you or another blogger picks up on, writes about and links to a Seed and submits it on the same page as the Seed itself.

Like with Seeds, Buzz submissions can also tell the community about how they have managed to carry on the Seed conversation by submitting their Buzz on the site.

Like with Seeds, member will click through to your blog to read the full version of the post, so submitting Buzz is a great way to get free traffic as well as links.

Buzzing is also how you can earn more than you monthly quota of Seed credits.
