Comments on: Getting to Know the Linkerati: Building Relationships with Bloggers http://www.emonetized.com/52/building-relationships-with-bloggers Tue, 16 Nov 2010 05:08:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 By: Steven Bradley http://www.emonetized.com/52/building-relationships-with-bloggers/comment-page-1#comment-251 Steven Bradley Sat, 07 Jul 2007 08:37:56 +0000 http://www.emonetized.com/52/building-relationships-with-bloggers/#comment-251 Thanks Derek. I think people are coming to realize that for every link there's a person behind the link who can give you more than just the one. The idea of building relationships with people one step higher is probably talked about a lot as well. The idea actually came to me a few years ago in a completely different concept. I've worked a lot of different jobs before finally working for myself and I used to keep applying for essentially the same jobs with different companies, assuming it was the same job I was qualified for. Then it dawned on me the next time I applied for a new job I should apply for one that would have meant a promotion at the last job, since that's the one I was really qualified for. That's kind of how the 'one step up' approach sunk in with me. It's a different context, but fundamentally the same thing. Thanks Derek.

The concept of relationship building seems to have been brought up a lot lately, and it is a very strong concept. I like your ideas of building relationships with people who are one step higher than yourself and progressively building more "powerful' relationships as you gain authority over time. Good post.
