Blogtipping April 2007: 22 Tippers, MANY Tippees

iHeartBlogTipping150x35-white.gif

Please mark your calendar to go blogtipping with me on Tuesday, May 1, 2007 - the anniversary of the first Blogtipping Day!

Blogtipping Definition: Blogtipping is where you publish a blog post in which you link to three unsuspecting blogs and offer three compliments and one helpful tip to each blogger.  (Or adapt those numbers to your own preferences; the principle of selflessness is what matters most here.)  Blogtipping is a refreshing and useful surprise that can start a blogger's month with a huge smile!  (Plus you get an appreciative link from me if you do it.)

The first calendar day of each month is a new Blogtipping Day.  Who will you sneak up behind and tip next time? :)

It just dawned on me that I'll need to do two tippers now that I have two blogs. Ok. I can do that.


I like your idea of Tipping the Tippers. When I first saw your post, I thought I got Tipped and was looking for the "room for improvement" line. (Any suggestions welcome!)

Thanks for passing the whole blogtipping thing forward. I didn't realize May 1 was the BlogTippingBirthday! I'll make sure to make my "May Day" Blogtipping post a good one!

Thanks,

Hi Easton!
Being my very first time 'blogtipping' was absolutely wonderful!

Interestingly, I was only hoping to "spread the link love", and venture into the blogosphere a bit further than I have in the past...I had no idea I would gain so greatly from this meme.

Here's a short-list:
- I just gained wonderful and rewarding relationships (as I did surprise my unsuspected 3),
- I drove traffic to my blog,
- I got referral visitors from my blogtippees,
- I got tips back from my blogtippees,
- I got a link from you :-)
- Oh...one of my blogtippees got a link from you too :-) and
- much, much more!

I'll definitely be doing this every month.

I even marked it on my calendar on the last week of the month, to prepare for my 'blogtip' so I don't miss the date like I did last month.

Happy Early Blogtipping Anniversary Easton!

Hello Easton:

Thank you for the link and the random selection. I see I'm in good company with Matt at Techno//Marketer, who I just met recently face to face and many others.

I'm really excited about this blog tipping thing - and am definitely going to give it a try - I was wondering how I get on the list of tippees and tippers? I'd like to participate as both over at my blog. So if anyone would like to give me a tip or be a tippee let me know - my name is Patrick and my blog is There's a Blog in my Soup! -> http://www.theresabloginmysoup.com
