Blog Action Day: Bloggers Unite for the Environment

Saturday, 8 September, 2007
By Simon Leufstedt

On October 15th over 4,000 blogs and websites with an audience of over 3,400,000 people will be talking about our environment. Some of these sites and blogs will also be donating their day earnings to an environmental charity.

On October 15th, bloggers around the web will unite to put a single important issue on everyone’s mind – the environment. Every blogger will post about the environment in their own way and relating to their own topic. Our aim is to get everyone talking towards a better future.

Some of the top notch blogs that will participate are SEOMoz, Lifehacker, ProBlogger, ZenHabits, Copyblogger and many more.

This is a great idea and initiative – Green Blog has already registered our blog to participate and we really hope you will too. But, why stop at only talking and discussing the environment on one day? Why not go the whole way with your blog or website? Wouldn’t it be great if an majority of the participating blogs and sites moved to a green web host on or around October 15th? That would truly make an impact on people and especially web host companies.

So if you are going to participate in the Blog Action Day, don’t just talk about the environment – help save it by choosing a green web host.

The concept of search engine optimization was initially introduced by the advertising agencies, in order to take over the website marketing arena online. Later it evolved into the presence concept of internet network marketing. Later, there were more idea developments in the marketing plan. One of the first few packages was that of adsense marketing. Later methods like pay per click and inclusion came along.
