I don’t know why but when I write or just think about guest blogging not intentionally I compare it with some off-line things, activities, etc. Well, at least in many cases.

This time my choice was made for snowballs.
The idea is the following: It you take a cupped hand of snow it won’t go far from you nor will it reach one of your objects. Well, it might cover you with a snow dust though.

But if you make your snowball properly, it will have a lot more chances to reach the target.
And now how I associate it with guest blogging? The better your guest post is (the higher quality content it provides and the more thoroughly targeted you make it), the more chance you have to achieve your goals.

So, thank you all for throwing your ‘snowballs’ away with MyBlogGuest in December, 2011 and enjoy!
