For #VivaViernes Today: Comment on 5 Blogs

October 16, 2009 by Julito Varela

We here at v5 feel that we are grow and continue to explore how to stay supportive and active in social media, we must never forget that it all comes from helping others. It is so important that as your brand grows on social media, you NEVER forget how you got there. And how did we get there? By visiting several blogs and posting comments on them, besides posting content ourselves and tweeting and updating and just being insane. ¡Jajaja!

So in the spirit of Viva Viernes and LATISM = Latinos in Social Media, please take the following pledge:

“I pledge to comment on at least 5 blogs from #VivaViernes and #Latism members this weekend.”

So where do you start? How about this?

1. If you are a blogger and want to promote your blog, add it to the comments here and I will comment on the blog over the weekend.

2. Tweet your blog out to people on Twitter today for #VivaViernes and say: “Take the #VivaViernes and #Latism pledge to visit this blog and comment.”

3. You can also just start by commenting on these blogs:

The Blog of Louis Pagan
Sofrito for Your Soul
Being Latino
@Carongonza’s Blog
Raul Ramos’ Blog
Bronze Word’s Blog
Efrain Ortiz, Jr.

So make the pledge, and let’s get some great comments out there this weekend. ¡Que viva Viernes!

I will grab myself a glass of vinito tonight and do a little comment love. I also just added to the Tiki Tiki Blog a list of Latinas I met at Blogalicious in Atlanta. It is the headline today: http://www.tikitikiblog.com. Super cool, smart gente.
