I’m one of the several hundred contributors. They’ve taken more than 100 posts from this blog and reprinted them. The exposure is terrific, and my posts there sometimes generate more comments than the identical ones you see here.
Things You Need to Know:
- They keep links intact, but edit out promotional copy. For example, if one of my posts includes five tips that I’ll be sharing during an upcoming webinar, and I link to the registration page, they’ll usually remove the registration link. 😥
- Their customer service is phenomenal. The few times I’ve emailed them using the Contact button at the bottom of the page, they’ve replied. And once or twice, I needed content within the posts changed, and they did it quickly. You hardly see that kind of customer care anymore.
- The Business2Community blog has won a whole bunch of awards and is on some prestigious lists. Check out the badges at the bottom of the page.
- If your blog is accepted, make sure to complete your profile and upload your image. Those images that look like pawns on a chess board, substitutes for bloggers who never submitted their photos, looks dorky.
- Contributors can use this nifty badge on their blogs or websites.

Hi Joan
First off, thanks for being a part of Business2Community. Second, thanks for recommending us to your audience. In regards to the first bullet, let’s talk about that when you get a chance. As long as the offer (webcast/whitepaper/etc) is relevant and mentioned at the bottom of the post, I would like to see those included for you.
Brian
See what I mean about great customer service? Brian, thanks so much for responding. Your site is PERFECT for other Publicity Hounds and I’m betting you’ll get a lot of response from this blog post, which is also mentioned in today’s ezine. I’ll touch base with you shortly.
Great – and yes we have had several requests today from individuals that mentioned your post. Thanks again for spreading the word.
Brian, I’d be surprised if you didn’t get even more applications. Many of my readers are probably on vacation this week end they’ll be playing catch-up next week.
Joan —
Thanks for this blog post. Based on your recommendation, I’ve just sent an email per the instructions on the Business 2 Community site. (Brian, you may see the email from me.)
And of course I tweeted the post to share with others.
