<p>I know I was going to announce the newest additions to our RSS Service at Blog Engage but instead I&#8217;ve decided to write about my <a href="http://www.famousbloggers.net/drive-consistent-free-traffic-blog.html">guest post at famous bloggers</a> and how I need your help to make me a winner.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve contemplated a few times to use the Blog Engage community to promote the article but decided it would be more competitive and fair if I used my own resources here on my personal blog.</p>
<p>The Blog engage Community would had been a great idea but I&#8217;m not sure if it would be considered fair for the rest of the contestants. I now many bloggers would had complained that I got to promote my article with an entire social media community and the contest was not fair.</p>
<p>The articles submitted to the contest have been great and are very competitive. I sat down last night and went through them to see what I was up against. I will be the first to admit this contest has some great articles that have been submitted.</p>
<p>I tired my best in this contest so I&#8217;m happy with my results. I&#8217;m sending this last request out to my online friends to help and support me. I send a big thanks out to anyone that has supported me to date and have tweeted and commented on the article.</p>
<p>If you have a moment please do comment and engage on my guest article,<br />
<a href="http://www.famousbloggers.net/drive-consistent-free-traffic-blog.html"><br />
How to Drive Consistent But Free Traffic To Your Blog</a> </p>
