I’m a Blogging Rock Star Now

by Nick Johnson

Well, not really but it’s cool to think that as a stroke of my own ego.

lemme tell you why I’m a Blogging Rock Star, and don’t make me look stupid by showing me up, let me have my moment you ‘better blogging bully’. Recently as everything on this site is considering it’s a baby still I made a post titled: Bloggers to Watch in 2010 which of course you see was the result of something Darren Rowse of Problogger set up.

I thought I did a decent post and apparently so did other people whether by default or some other unknown factor. I started getting what seemed like a million ‘pingbacks’ out of nowhere from problogger and all these other sites and I was thinking WTF! How am I getting all these spam pingbacks and I was all pissed because it was taking up my precious time approving all the pingbacks, I was thinking I was getting spammed because of Darren somehow.

Little do I know (duh!!) that………..wait for it

wait for it…………

wait for it…………

Ok, I’ll tell ya. I made HIS list and I was linked to from his site. Apparently in ‘bloggers’ world this is a great thing to have such a great site link back to you for ‘linkjuice’ which of course, I don’t really care about all that because I’m not here to be a professional blogger, I just use this a medium to connect with you guys while I do what I do. So without further adoo-doo, check this out:

47 Lists of Bloggers to Watch in 2010

Check #44 that is yours truly my friends

So, now I can quit bitchin and whining about NOT making any lists like I did here: Top 5 Blogs: Up and Coming Investors which apparently, you have to bribe to get listed. I was however put on another list (but I think it was out of sympathy because he added me several times) titled: Time Out Tuesday and Blog List so that was totally cool.

Problem now is I think I’m a Blogging Rock Star just because I made a few lists. So in typical ‘me’ fashion, I recorded a great video of me singing I did last night at the local Honky Tonk just for you:

Ugh… this is starting to hurt:)

Nick… I can only hope you don't have to totally rebuild your house as you expand the door frames to get your ever expanding head through the doors.

Keep you the great job!

Lol those guys were actually at Guitars in Joplin the one time I went there! You made the list 3 times because you are that darn good! You and Shae are the direct reasons I stepped my blog game up!

well thank you sir. That makes me all warm inside

What a stud

Sweet new site logo. I really like it. Who designed it for you?

Nick Johnson January 28, 2010 at 7:44 pm

dunno, someone on 99designs.com Shae fronted the dough and I got to choose the winner

chris guthrie January 28, 2010 at 9:12 pm

Ok, I remember the 99esigns.com thing, but had thought it was going to be for the new book's logo, not for the site here. Anyhow, I really like it.

Shae January 28, 2010 at 9:54 pm

LOL! Hilarious. Congratulations Nick for the mention — and yes, I must say that the logo is pretty hot.

Justin Schnettler January 29, 2010 at 3:20 am

Nice work and nice logo. 6 months and your blogging rock star. Not to shabby.

Nick Johnson January 29, 2010 at 3:22 am

thanks Justin! It's just how I roll. In true 'me' fashion, I didn't even pay for the logo @ShaeBynes offered it up without being asked so who was I to refuse her graciously offered gift :)

Nick Johnson January 31, 2010 at 5:41 am
