Where do you get most of your readers ? For my blog which is relatively new most readers come through Kottu. When I post, from Kottu alone I get around 100 hits , of course this depends on the topic ,for instance one of my posts No Jobs for SLIIT students got a lot of hits from Kottu, and once a Kottu reader reads my post and if he likes it he might send the link to someone else etc etc. The point I'm trying to make here is that blog aggregators are a great way to get some exposure for blogs, Especially true for new ones , So having your content shown on more than one doesn't hurt. So I was really happy to find another Sri Lankan blog aggregator 
.
SL Blogs is just like Kottu , But instead of a small portion of the post the whole post is shown. The drawback of this method is that only a few posts can be shown in the home page. So as the site grows with more and more blogs getting syndicated chances of your post being viewed by someone gets more and more less. The site owner just might fix this after reading this post . Currently there are 16 blogs syndicated , This will surely rise as the word spreads around. You have the join option in the home page and joining it is pretty simple. You also have the option of specifying the category of your blog , hopefully this will enable readers to find what they want easily. Actually this is something I think indi also should do at Kottu. But then again there doing this for free in there spare time , so you have to be understandable.
More the merrier I guess , Bloggers are becoming a powerful force now.
Hi, I was just wondering if you know why only the title and address of my posts appear on Kottu when I post, and not the first few sentences. I noticed this is the case with some other blogs as well on kottu. My posts used to have the first few sentences appearing and I got more hits as a result. About 6 months ago, they stopped appearing and now the hits I get off kottu are less.
Hey.. He he Thanks for the POST your in da race my pal wish you good luck.. 15th is the day..
Yep in no mean slBlogs competing with kottu or any other SL blog aggregation sites.. Well I think we can do some more things.. So all of these sites will help our blogosphere..
First of all the issue Ravana was talking about.. Kottu and my slBlogs both use this plugin called FEEDWORDPRESS plugin. We’ll It has a bug on sub domain RSS feeds.. Like your sub domain in wordpress domain. We’ll the same happened for blogger ATOM feeds which ultimately we found a work around. That means The feed given by blogger feeds had to be converted to RSS and burned in FEEDBURNER… We’ll it wasn’t a fix rather.. As the old saying more work arounds means more bugs to come.. he he..(I hate work arounds)
Anyhow I have been trying to customize the plugin and fix the issue.. Dam my final year project is in between and I really didn’t have enough time to get the thing done…We’ll see.. There more bugs on that plugin which has to be fixed soon..
Okidoky back to slBlogs, yea your correct rumbling.. I know the whole feed syndication means Quick disappear from home page.. We’ll I have a solution for it.. I’ll get it done soon.. But slBlogs theory will be to show full post.. Cos its a SEO technique I’m testing on..
So guys sorry for these few days cos I had hectic work 22hrs a day.. Did nothing on slBlogs dev… I know all you my friends are there so we can make slBlogs really worthy for the SL Bloggers.. Cheers..! Keep on Blogging !
By da way rumbling your theme has a problem with firefox.. can you see the top commentators box gone towards right… Fix it machang ..k Cya
yeah , I saw it guys , It happened after I changed the theme , I’m not that much into PHP , But I think its something to do with the style sheet , any help would be welcome.
Great post. Thanks for info.
That’s great. thanks for the news.
