Day 21 – The Importance of Building Relationships With Other Bloggers

Other bloggers work just as hard on the same goal and chances are that even if the two of you are in the same niche, you have somewhat different audiences. If you can build a relationship with a fellow blogger, you can each grow your reach and get in front of each other’s audience.
You Can Grow Faster Together

Your lists will grow faster, your social media reach will grow faster, and your search engine rankings may improve as you support and help each other. Together you can grow your blogs much faster.

Help them out by pointing them to other great blogs in your niche – and if you have a relationship with those bloggers, they will return the favor.
