I started blogging on July 17, 2007. My mentality is so out of the traditional blogging mentality that it is just plain scary. One of the things that I noticed immediately was how self centered bitches bloggers usually are.
Let’s start with how it is everybody’s fault why things happen to them. Example, with the Google issue it is not that as a blogger I did not follow the rules of the game no this is not it, the problem is Google is trying to run my business and they are just plain evil. I am sorry, an idiot only thinks like this.
let’s start by looking at this from another perspective. As a black hatter I would buy 50 domains I would built a certain type of site that auto generates itself, I would promote it using techniques that are not approved by Google and in a few days I would be making from one dollar to three dollars per site do the math. Now a week goes by and when I wake up all my domains where de-indexed. Now since I am a fully absorb self centered bitch and take no responsibility for my actions I will curse the evil Google, what bastards they are trying to run my business.
Now, do not come and say they are not the same thing, spamming is spamming and yes selling and buying PR through links is fucking spamming. Do not try to say it is not.
Now in my BH days I would just take a deep breath and since I am responsible for my actions I would just go buy another 50 domains and start again. This is why I got tired of that and started blogging. I wanted to go the legit route.
Now let’s look at a pattern I have been able to see at Blogging Zoom. The bloggers that are having the greatest success have been those that have networked, promoted other peoples worked, Zoomed other bloggers submissions and have been totally unselfish.
Now let’s look at those that have not had great success. Again here comes the self centered bitch mentality. They submit there post, of course they do not take the time to write an original intro they just do the lazy way and copy paste from there own blog, now he just gave himself and BZ a duplicate content penalty on his submission. Then he does this again 10 more times finishes and moves on to his next task. Comes back 3 days later makes a bitching comment on how he has not gotten Zooms and leaves again. The end of the month comes along he writes a review on how the traffic was not that great and BZ sucks.
People I see the stats I know what submissions have had hundreds of unique hits a day and which are not and it never fails. The complainer is an absorbed self centered bitch. They want people to Zoom there post but of course they do not Zoom anybodies work, they want to benefit from the organic traffic but of course they are to lazy to write and original submission.
Of course not all bloggers are self centered bitches, but the whole reason of this post is if you are in this boat start taking responsibility. If you do not accept responsibility in your life you can not improve your situation because it will always be some one else’s fault.
Change your habits and improve, go get what you want do not wait for others to do the work for you and you will have success.

Another of your "no holds barred" post that should be a wake-up call to those who fall into this "B" category. I've seen a lot of them on BZ. Just wonder have they ever wondered about their choice of posts for BZ. It's just like they are just dumped there to pollute. Not every post that one writes should be submitted to BZ unless it's truly informative, of substantial quality for people to read, and I can accept something that's humorous. Like you say, the whinners are just pathetic.
Bloggers need to start reacting to the way things are better. I feel that one of the reasons Bloggers behave the way they do is because of the bullshit some of these so called A-list bloggers have been feeding the community. I hope with this platform I have an opportunity to start showing bloggers who is who.
I don't get how anyone can post anywhere and then just expect the traffic to come. Blogging is a community effort, you gotta give a little to get a little. BZ offers a quick and easy way to see and zoom lots of posts, it you take the time to post to BZ why not spend some time a help out the community.
I've only been blogging a little over 2 mos, but posting, commenting and zooming have had the biggest impact on my traffic.
Scotty it goes back do not expect from other what you are not willing to give yourself. It has been so amazing to see in the past 45 days since the beginning of BZ to see sites grow immensely in no time with the exposure from BZ. But if you take a quick look at there stats you see the huge difference from the guy who has not grown. Every time I have been asked how is it I got a brand new Blog to have 20k unique hits a day in 4 months first answer is always the same. Work hard, work hard and hard work. Networking and becoming friends with others is so huge. But peeps do not want to take the time they want everything the easy way.
"Google is EVUL!" annoys the hell out me. When I first ventured into this area of the blogosphere the same people that are crying foul were the ones that were bragging about their precious PR. Um, duh? Google giveth the PR and Google taketh it away.
Also, I think I've become a BZ snob in a way (though the last week has been hectic and I haven't had time to do much of anything in the way of blogging). I look at a Zoomers profile to see if they've zoomed more than they've submitted. ESPECIALLY if I see 5 or 6 of their own posts in the upcoming page. If they only zoom what they submit then I can't help them out.
I do need to submit more though. I've been slacking.
As always right on the money Lizzie. Now please do take some time to submit your post I adore your writing you always seem to bring a smile to my face. Same thing with Grizz he has this gift of making me laugh.
Rather generalising there arent we?
True that those people exists. In fact, I also wrote a post on those types of people but apparently decided to delete it as it was to vulgar
Anyway, not all bloggers are like so (IE. grizz) and not all of these are kinds of people are bloggers which im sure you know so im guessing the title was just a pulling factor thingy :p
Its my first time stumbling upon this blog and its rather a good read kudos
Though I can see that you're rather pro BZ and anti Entre lol. Looking forward to your feeds
Welcome and hope you can find some actual info that helps you.
