Welcome to the Watcher's Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the 'sphere, and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council.Then we vote on the best two posts, with the results appearing on Friday.
Council News:
This week, AskMarion, The Optimistic Conservative, Maggie's Notebook and The Pirate's Cove took advantage of my generous offer of link whorage and earned honorable mention status with some excellent articles.
You can, too! Want to see your work appear on the Watcher’s Council homepage in our weekly contest listing? Didn’t get nominated by a Council member? No worries.
To bring something of yours to my attention, simply head over to Joshuapundit and post the title and a link to the piece you want considered along with an e-mail address (which won't be published) in the comments section no later than Monday 6PM PST. Then return the favor by creating a post on your site linking to the Watcher’s Council contest for the week when it comes out on Wednesday morning.
Simple, no?
It's a great way of exposing your best work to Watcher’s Council readers and Council members. while grabbing the increased traffic and notoriety. And it's all good right?
