The folks at ASSME (Mediaelites) took time out of their busy day to do a bit of blog bashing aimed at our site. Personally, I think it’s the coolest thing in the world. At the very least, it means we are blog-topic worthy. We’ve even gotten a surge of viewers from just that article alone. Definitely proves the “No press is bad press” adage.
In all honestly, I do see the point of their article. It points out how our site advertises on Craigslist (A LOT) to get viewers. In their minds we’re sorta like the squeegee guys of the blog world. And to that I say, you’re half right. It absolutely is our goal to nab viewers, but it’s not only for the blog. We’re hoping it would help the writers as well. Here’s our simple Huffington-esque formula…
People write stuff on our blog
+
They get a writing credit for their resume
+
companies see their work

So far (in the 4 months we've been around) NWM has been getting a steady stream of viewers that seem to like the content. How will that help writers like KC, Joshen, Jani, Barry, Tom, Eddie, Biz-Boy, Nameless Dad, Greg and others? Only time will tell.
BTW...Willy Loman? Really? We’re not that big yet, but thanks for the sentiment.
