Forming strategic alliances with other successful bloggers is a smart business move. Plus, it can be very rewarding and fufilling.

What I'd like to do in the paragraphs below is share 7 simple things you can do to connect with other bloggers. They are listed in no particular order.

# 1 Form a Mastermind Team

One of the best things you can do is form your own mastermind team with 2-5 other bloggers. I have my own mastermind team where I connect with several other bloggers and we share ideas about certain topics. It's very beneficial to everyone.

# 2 Contribute Frequently to their Blog

Visit their blog a few times each week and leave thoughtful comments. They will notice. At some point, they will reciprocate or reach out to you. And even if they don't, at least you sent them positive energy.

# 3 Link to their Posts

Link to some of their popular posts. Quote what they say in some of your posts and provide a link back to their website. They will be notified via a pingback or trackback. As a result, they will more than likely come check you out.

# 4 Send The Something in the Mail

If the blogger has a mailing address on their website, send them something in the mail. It could be a handwritten note, a gift, etc. This personal touch is the smartest thing you can do.

# 5 Cite them as a Source

Cite their articles when you do research online and put their link in the reference section of your article.

# 6 Share Their Links on Social Media

When you find an article or piece of content you really enjoy, share it on your social media channels or to your email list.

# 7 Have a Servant Attitude

Focus on giving, not getting. This is the single biggest mistake people make. If everything is about you, the other blogger will not be interested in you. However, if you make it all about them, they will become interested in you (just like dating).

Final Thoughts

There you have it folks. These are 7 simple ways to connect with other bloggers. Having even 2-3 blogger friends you can connect with and share ideas with is very powerful. That's one of the reasons the Wealthy Affiliate community here is so awesome.

Aw, this is soo good...We are now at a time in Internet History, where the word "Blogger" or Social Media Manager means something. 15 years ago, people did not know anything about it....

Now we can network til the cows come home! Only to the ones in our field or exploratory field....

Thanks for sharing this. I really enjoyed reading it...
