FRANKENSTEIN’S BLOGSTER: WE WANT YOU TO BE THE NEXT TOP FIGHT BLOGGER
Posted on | July 10, 2010 | 3 Comments
We want to create a new monster, Frankenstein’s Blogster, a blogging sensation with a head start on life in the fight industry media circles. We’ve made it this far with Fight News Unlimited, so we want to take another bright and hard-working blogger where he or she wants to go now. Why wait and get knocked around figuring things out and learning the hard way? It’s a big blogosphere, and we want to make sure you’re prepared to conquer all. We’ll provide the winner of our blog contest all the advice and support needed to run a successful and profitable fight news blog, and we’ll give the winner advertising and search engine optimization help, too.
THE NEXT TOP FIGHT BLOGGER CONTEST:
The Fight News Unlimited Network, in association with FREEBLOGFACTORY.COM & MMARECRUITER.COM, is looking for a few good bloggers…
If you think you might want to interview prominent fighters and fight industry figures, and if you think it would be cool to get into all kinds of local fighting events for free, we can help you realize your own dream by giving you the secrets we learned the hard way to put our own sites on the map. Fight News Unlimited started with an idea really, and then a MySpace page with a huge blog, and it became a Web-site within a few months. The Fight News Unlimited Network Founder Rich Bergeron was a small town newspaper reporter who wrote a few magazine articles here and there and did some pieces online for a few boxing Web-sites before he started Fight News Unlimited. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE OLDEST SURVIVING RECORD OF FIGHT NEWS UNLIMITED AS IT USED TO APPEAR TO VIEWERS.
Since then, Bergeron has been breaking big stories and covering every angle of the combat sports with a popular weekly talk show and podcast page and spin-off sites like fightspaceonline.com and fightradio.info. We’ve outlasted lots of other companies since we started. Our original radio show was on nowlive.com, which doesn’t even exist anymore as of this writing. The domain’s blank and up for sale. Rich and his staff have interviewed some big names over the years like Oscar De La Hoya, Donald Trump, and Ken Shamrock (just to name a few).
Rich gets into all kinds of events now for free with at least one photographer. It’s a dream job that all started with a simple MySpace profile and led to a blog that is now ranked in the top million sites in all the world. Now Rich gets to go backstage at all the big events and interact with all kinds of combat sports celebrities. Check out Rich this past May with Bas Rutten:
You could be the next great American fight news blogger with Rich’s help and the additional assistance of WWW.MMARECRUITER.COM and all our main sponsors if you win our contest. All you have to do is jump in head first to the blogosphere and start from scratch. Even if you don’t win the contest, you might just create a Web-site you can retire off of if you work hard enough at it. So, first, what you have to do is sign up for a blog we can track and observe by clicking on the following link provided by our friends at www.freeblogfactory.com:
Pick your domain (A.K.A. URL, DOTCOM) wisely. Keep it short for best results, and think big. Some people make amazing income from just buying and selling domains without even having to develop them.
