I stopped looking for the magic and silver bullet methods a while ago. I've learned that simplicity really is the best when it comes to invoking the desired action. And that quality is certainly does trump quantity.
In regards the the simplicity principle: All of my squeeze pages are very simple and plan; some would consider them old school and outdated. However, they convert extremely well. Usually at 50%. So, yes, I totally agree that simplicity out preforms all the "bells and whistles" and flashing lights.
Concerning Danny's guest posting campaign, I'm definitely in agreeance with it.
In my first five months after I relaunched my blog last year, I published 3 guest posts. These were all *unsolicited* guest posts from 3 top bloggers in my niche, Including Ana Hoffman of Traffic Generation Cafe. And they were a result of the solid business building principles, principles that tie right into Cobert Barr's Epic Shit.
I focused on writing insanely valuable content, content that you would expect people to pay for and I gave it all away for free on my blog. In efforts to promote my content, I did A LOT of networking and reaching out to other bloggers' in my niche, including becoming an active participant their community by leaving a high amount of quality comments on their blog posts.
This resulted in the those top bloggers engaging with me, noticing my content and asking me to guest post for them.
So I can attest that these principals that you speak of do indeed work for all bloggers in any niche.
Again, this is a really fantastic post, Gary; thanks for taking the time to write it up and share it with us.
I'll be sure to share it with my social circle.
I look forward to connecting with you more soon.
