We’ve decided it’s time for a mid-summer contest. Nothing complicated–we just want to hear your Lijit story. To reward your efforts, the best storyteller will win a Kindle and ALL submissions will get a super-comfy Lijit t-shirt.
What should you write about? Absolutely anything having to do with Lijit.
Your contest entry could be about how you found out about Lijit…
“I landed in Nashville for the BlissDom09 conference. It had been a REALLY long flight day for me. The last leg of my trip was out of Denver, and I picked up my luggage and searched for the hotel’s shuttle van…
We talked a bit and I learned that she was representing Lijit, one of the sponsors for the event! (Sorry, I didn’t have the sponsors memorized.) Her name was Tara and I was feeling lucky to have met her like that, one on one, ridin’ in the van…”
–From Carissa at GoodNCrazy
Or simply what you like best about our service…
“This isn’t even the coolest part of Lijit, though, IMHO. Instead, in my mind, the most interesting feature is the “Research” feature. After you’ve searched for a specific term or after you reach TOCWOC through a search engine, the Lijit widget shows a Research area which gives you other possible posts or pages from TOCWOC and from the entire Civil War blogosphere!”
–From Brett at TOCWOC
Of course, you could be like Louis Gray and write a post that explains our service better than we do…
“Google’s goal in life is to find the one right answer that is true for everyone. Search for iPhone, and you should get the same answer I do at the top of the results, blanketed by potentially relevant ads from the company’s partners. Lijit’s goal in life is to find the one answer that is most accurate, depending on where you are searching. Search for iPhone on my blog, and you will find the most relevant responses that come from my blog and my content from around the Web, including Flickr, Twitter, Delicious, YouTube and other social sites. Search for iPhone on Steven Hodson’s blog (also using Lijit), and you should get a different set of responses based on his activity.”
–From the blog of Louis Gray
Then, like Louis, you can turn your babies into little Lijit evangelists as well…
(But that’s not necessary to win the contest.)
To enter the contest:
- Simply post your Lijit story on your blog.
- Link back to us here.
- Leave a comment on this post with a link to your entry to insure we don’t miss your post.
You have thirty days and we will pick the winner with the help of everyone around our office. To answer potential questions, Lijit employees and their families are not eligible to win. (Lenora and Walter, I’m talking to you two!) Also, if you have posted something about Lijit in the past, feel free to republish your older post and we’ll consider it a valid entry.
In addition to the Kindle, you’ll also be featured on our blog, our homepage and receive our undying love & devotion.
Seems easy enough, right? Have fun and we look forward to seeing what you come up with!

There are four kinds of people that work here at Lijit*: those that race cars, those that run, those that bike, and those that do other things**. I’m of the opinion that bikers make up the second largest majority around the office, being slightly beaten out by the overall geek population. When I got word that there were a couple of self-proclaimed geeks that were riding their bicycles across the US to raise awareness about bike-commuting, I knew they had to be Lijit.
Meet Carlos and Joe, the two geeks behind Real Geeks Ride. They started their cross-country cycling adventure on May 20th and are chronicling their journey via blog, tweets and pictures. We’re honored that they’ve chosen to use Lijit on the official RGR blog but reading about their travels just wasn’t enough. After a few emails (and one phone call he took from the side of the road in Nebraska with big trucks whizzing by), Carlos was happy to answer a few questions for us.
How long have you been blogging and what made you start?
I have been in the blogging world on and off for the past few years. It tends to be event/travel oriented, rather than opinion or news based. I started blogging in high school but dropped it when interest was lost. I picked it up again when I traveled around the world with a ‘worldly singing and dancing group’ to keep my parents and friends up to date.
What has been the greatest thing you’ve received from blogging?
During this bike ride, blogging has given both Joe and I hundreds of people looking out for our safety and health. They ask about us and offer suggestions when we write about our health issues. Knowing that we have moms across the country expecting our safety is uplifting.
What has suprised you on your cross-country bike trip and why?
It is most surprising how different each state reacts to cyclists on the road. We are currently in Nebraska and receive a wave from every other car (not exaggerating). Our experience here is that people give ample room when passing, and are willing to help at any moment. This differs greatly from our experience in Iowa, where we were screamed at, almost hit a few times, and given the finger more times than waves.
What has been the biggest challenge you guys have encountered on your trip so far?
The biggest challenge has been keeping up with the blog. After biking 100+ miles and arriving at our destination at 8 pm, the last thing we want to do is edit photos and write about the past few hours. However, we gain so much push to do ‘work’ when people send us messages of inspiration. It has been the hundreds of messages we have received that allow us to overcome not wanting to post.
How has Lijit helped you to become a better blogger?
Lijit has allowed me to become a better blogger by making it easy to search for people doing similar things. The more I read within a certain field, the more it gives me the ability to see the different writing styles of that field.
If you’re interested, you can follow along with Carlos and Joe on their blog, on Twitter or through their Flickr pics.
Additionally, if you’re in the Denver/Boulder area, you’re invited to meet the guys this Friday, July 3rd, as they make a stop in Boulder. We’ll be meeting up at the Boulder Draft House, from 4-6 pm, to enjoy some happy hour beers with the guys. (Look for us in the back room!) Ride your bike, stop in, and let us show Carlos and Joe just how much we love our bikes around here.
*A very sweeping overgeneralization, of course.
**Other things include: rugby, hiking, parenting, photography, playing video games & tweeting.

I first met Jason when he had installed our widget on his blog…four times. We always appreciate enthusiasm like that, but one widget is normally enough. Turns out he was having problems with his advanced Typepad template and we grew to be close through many tech support emails. Imagine my surprise when, just a week after we had solved his problem, he sent me an email saying he was going to be in Boulder for business.
Since we have an “open-door” policy around Lijit, I told him to stop by…
and he did! We spoke for a half-hour and it reminded me, once again, just how spectacular it is to meet our publishers in person. Jason was incredibly energetic, full of questions, and loved the idea of Lijit. In my opinion, this makes him an ideal candidate for a Publisher Spotlight profile.
Jason is a productivity consultant and does a lot of work in helping people to be more efficient and effective in their work. Not to mention he’s an incredible triathlete and really nice guy. Let’s find out more about Jason’s thoughts on blogging…
How long have you been blogging and what made you start?
In early 2002, I had lunch with Robert Scoble in Seattle, Washington, and he suggested I “just get started.” In fact, his advice fit hand-in-hand with my own coaching philosophy…Get Started.
My current blog is titled “Your Best Just Got Better”, Jason Womack Blog, and has been “in action” since March of 2004.
What has been the greatest thing you’ve received from blogging?
As an executive coach and triathlete, I dedicate my life to performance, in both theory and action. To perform means: To carry out, bring about, accomplish or achieve. Blogging serves at least two purposes for me as a consultant and practitioner of this methodology:
1) Writing about what I learn about, my experiments and the results gives me the opportunity to slow down and reflect on the lessons I experience on an “almost” daily basis.
2) Recording those lessons in a blog gives me a reviewable “resource” to demonstrate my growth over time.
I am a “fortunate blogger” in that I have a few people who read what I write, and I’ve made more than one group of friends around the world because of the community we’ve been able to build via online, on phone, and in person meetings. Here’s an example: A group of us put together the “bloggers’ bike ride” several years ago. (You can read about it here.)
Of all the posts you’ve written, what has been your favorite and why?
Over the years, I don’t know if there is a “favorite” post, but I tend to spend most of my time contributing to two categories: Perform (at work) and Competing.
Both of these sections collect my thoughts and suggestions on the “time management” problem we all face: Too much to do (well) and not enough time to do it (at our best.) My job-really, my life-is to research practice and share the world’s best and most sustainable answers to questions like: “How can I be effective at work?”
With so many things available to distract us, can you share some of your tips for being the most effective while at work?
For some answers, visit the blog! One idea to get you started is: For the next 5 days, separate EVERYthing you get into one of two buckets/folders/stacks on your desk/in your email/within your notebook.
1) Action materials/action reminders: Everything that when you see it you think, “I have to DO something about that.”
2) Reference materials: ANYthing you see and think, “I might need this later on.”
How has Lijit helped you to become a better blog publisher?
I’m a Lijit fan and continue to talk about them in our seminars because:
1) They care. While working in Boulder, I was invited to “stop by”, and I got a tour of the office as well as a tutorial on how to best use their service.
2) They are there. Now, when I go to my blog I can search (and find) something I know I wrote about.
3) They are there (part II). While I’m on the phone with a client, I can ask THEM to go to the blog, do a search, and find what it is they’re looking for, or what I want them to see.
4) They get it. These days, its not just about capturing information; it’s about pulling the information BACK that is in there “somewhere.” This is a reason I recommend all bloggers at least “experiment” with Lijit.
As a blog publisher, knowing that Lijit is there by my side, I am really thinking through my blog posts, asking myself, “Would this come up in the way I would like it to if someone searched my blog for one of these terms?”
Thank you to the Lijit “family” for doing all you do to keep us moving forward.
You’re welcome, Jason. 
Thank you for your support. And if anyone out there needs help accomplishing more, be sure to check out Jason’s blog and follow him on Twitter for even more helpful information about how to make your best even better.

I just checked my TripIt account and so far I have been traveling for 25% of 2009. That means, having just started June, that I have been gone from Boulder for more than a solid month. (Well, not a solid month, more like a total of a month worth of days, but I bet you get it.)
Which also means I get a lot of time to read. Lately, I have been reading a book called The Know-It-All by AJ Jacobs. In the book, which is non-fiction, AJ reads the entire encyclopedia to become the smartest person in his family.
In many ways, I view Google, Yahoo!, and MSN (I mean BING!) similarly. They are out there attempting to catalog the worlds information so that when asked a question, they can provide you with THE one right answer.
Often, they do. But as time as passed and the information store has grown, context has been lost. When you do the search for “seal” what is returned? The animal? The singer?
Google hedges its bets by displaying images of both, but guesses the singer in the results…
There was a recent article in DM News that search queries of three words or less were down 3%, 5% and 1% respectively, but that searches of four to eight words had grown from 3% to 20%.
In short, searchers have learned that to get relevant results, you have to use more than three words.
My friend Kevin Lee of Did-It was quoted as saying:
“Longer queries are a sign of the searchers becoming more educated and savvy and essentially being trained by the fact that results for shorter queries tend to return less relevant results than longer searches.” (emphasis mine)
Frankly, while not surprising, that boggles my mind. Searchers have learned that the major search engines are inherently inefficient and ineffective at applying context to a search query. How is this progress?
That major search engines are relying on the searcher to provide the context via additional keywords in the query. How does that create a better search experience?
Which, of course, brings us to Lijit.
Across our network approximately 75% of the searches are three words or less. Why is that?
Because we allow the publisher to provide the context. Their readers, by going to a trusted source first, already believe that the results that are returned will be contextual to the query. Therefore, they don’t need to use multiple word queries to return relevant results.
How do we know that this is the case?
1) On average, we get a higher click through rate on organic results than people using Google Custom Search.
2) On average, we get a higher click through rate on ads than the industry standard for text ads.
So what is better for publishers?
The “one right answer” approach that the major search engines take, or the “every publisher has a right answer” approach that we take?
I suppose that is up to the searcher.
But, I can guarantee it will take less keywords in the query to find the answer on a Lijit publisher.

Part of my job is to check out the bloggers who sign up for Lijit every day. This is always one of the best times of my workday because I get to see such an interesting cross-section of what people are blogging about and how they go about conveying their passion to others. Of course, when I see a URL that pops out at me, I become even more intrigued. This was the case with PJ. His blog is called Real Men Drive Minivans and he’s a proud daddyblogger. (Hey, if real men can eat quiche and wear pink, I’m pretty sure they can drive minivans and use their kids as blog content…)
In addition to blogging about his son, PJ shares a Wordless Wednesday series and writes extensively about his adventures in the kitchen. I reached out to PJ and asked if he would be kind enough to answer some questions for this profile. Read on to find out what real men think of blogging…
How long have you been blogging and what made you start?
I’ve been blogging since January 2008 with an NFL football blog, but kind of dropped the ball on it shortly after my son was born a few months later. For a number of reasons, I didn’t attempt to revive that site, but rather launched my current blog, Real Men Drive Minivans, as a creative outlet while being a stay-at-home dad. Initially I wanted to get into blogging to learn more about web 2.0 and social networking, and now I’m using it as a way to learn new skills for an eventual return to the workforce.
What has been the greatest thing you’ve gotten from blogging?
I’d say the relationships I’ve managed to develop in a short period of time with some other dad and mom bloggers out there. As a new parent trying to find my way, there is a ton of information out there and some anecdotal evidence that the decisions we’ve made so far have been good for our son.
Of all the posts you’ve written, what has been your favorite and why?
Recently I’ve been participating in Fatherhood Fridays over at Dad Blogs where us daddy bloggers link up our individual blogs with posts relating to fatherhood every week. As part of my contributions I’ve been writing a series of posts examining whether or not fathers matter anymore. Aside from the generalizations made about stay-at-home dads, there are a lot of poor characterizations of fathers in the media. I’ve already posted two times in this (number to be determined) series and I have at least two others planned for upcoming Fatherhood Fridays. My first post “Don’t fathers matter?: Kneeling on concrete” that I published on March 20th is kind of what got my fire going to discuss this issue, so I would have to say that, at least for now, it is one of my favorite posts.
With all the media attention surrounding mommybloggers, what are your thoughts about the future of daddybloggers?
I think we’re still trying to find our voice. There are a lot of stereotypes being perpetuated about dads–that we’re dolts, we get lost in the supermarket, we don’t know the difference between a frying pan and a Santoku. The rhetoric is even worse for stay-at-home dads–we’re lazy, we’re unemployable, we’re destroying the family dynamic. While this may all make for a funny TV commercial, the dads I’ve met through blogging are highly focused on the very important role they play in their families. I really enjoy reading some of the mommybloggers as well and they deserve all the accolades they receive. My hope is that in time, we daddybloggers can take the momentum we are building to fight these stereotypes.
How has Lijit helped you to become a better blog publisher?
I’m still pretty new at this but I really like interpreting the stats and looking for trends. I spent nearly twelve years in the financial services industry, so I’m a bit of a numbers geek. My blog is still pretty new and I’m just now expanding my focus beyond the content to capturing my target audience.
Thanks for your time PJ and if you’re interested in searching for more of what PJ has to say, please use the Lijit search on his blog and follow him on Twitter.

JEM is the mastermind behind AdminChronicles and an expert in all things office/work-related. What better way to share her expertise than by starting a blog? On AdminChronicles, she provides advice on telephone etiquette, lists some interview don’ts, helps with how to handle criticism, and offers ways to master Outlook. (Who couldn’t use information like that?)
How long have you been blogging and what made you start?
AdminChronicles was on the “launchpad” for approximately a year prior to its official launch in July 2008.
I started AdminChronicles to share my knowledge. I have had a very diverse and progressive administrative career. As the Office Manager for a direct report to the chairman of a Fortune 500 company, I mastered the “unwritten” rules for providing support at that level–tools that were far beyond the traditional typing, filing or scheduling meetings. The science of providing support to a senior-level executive is much more nuanced than people would expect and I wanted to share my first-hand knowledge with my peers in the hopes that it would help them achieve career success.
What has been the greatest thing you’ve received from blogging?
The greatest thing that I have received from blogging is the relationships that I have established with other bloggers in my niche. The opportunity to avail myself of their expertise has been invaluable to me as the editor-in-chief of AdminChronicles as well as to me as a “working” member of the profession. In addition, blogging has allowed me to sharpen my communication skills (both written and verbal)–I’m confident that there’s a book in me somewhere!–and develop skills in the areas of web/blog design, marketing and social networking.
Of all the posts you’ve written, what has been your favorite and why?
My favorite post is a two-part series titled, What is a Board of Advisors and Why Every Smart Professional Should Have One. This post is my favorite because it is somewhat of a blue-print of my own career. My success is without a doubt owed to both my ability to partner with other administrative professionals as it is my own desire to succeed.
What online services or tools do you recommend to other admins and why?
One of the tools that I would most recommend to my peers is CEO Express, an internet interface for executives. The site filters and organizes the content executives need on the Internet while adding features to the site to make their lives even more streamlined and efficient.
My other favorite online tool is AdminSecret (where I am a featured writer). AdminSecret is one of the premiere social and career networking site for admins.
If I had to make just one major recommendation for my peers it would be to READ. Reading not only helps me to sharpen my writing skills, but it helps me to frame my thinking in a way that allows me to partner successfully with executives. On my nightstand this week is Cathi Black’s (the president of Hearst Magazines) book, Basic Black: The Essential Guide for Getting Ahead at Work. My other favorite book for admin professionals is written by Rosanne Badowski (the assistant to Jack Welch), Managing Up.
How has Lijit helped you to be a better blogger?
My association with Lijit has allowed me the opportunity to guide the progress of my blog by allowing me to understand my readers interests. Lijit serves as a “real-time” view of what is working and what isn’t working. It helps me to tailor my offerings to meet my communities needs.
A big thank-you to JEM for sharing her thoughts on blogging and what it takes to be successful doing it. If you want to dig deeper into her admin knowledge, be sure to visit her blog and use the Lijit search to find out even more.
April 15th is a day that can strike fear into the hearts of many Americans. To show our support, we’re happy to share what some of our publishers had to say about today…
–If you’ve forgotten what today is, refresh your memory and check out the blog Don’t Mess with Taxes. Besides having an awesome name, they have posted a very handy to-do list which should help anyone still confused about what they need to do today. (When you’re done with the list, watch the tax propaganda video they’ve posted featuring Donald Duck.)
–Wondering why we pay taxes? MOMocrats has a post up that explores that very question and comes up with some good answers.
–Taking part in a tea party today? One of our publishers has a post up explaining his view of the tea parties happening all over the country and why ordinary Americans should be upset with out current tax system.
–Wondering if tax reality lives up to the media hype? One publisher has a post citing research that shows how Americans perceive what is fair when it comes to paying taxes, while another publisher references the very same research in his post to show that Americans are happy with what they’re paying.
–Excited to be done paying your taxes? The Foundry blog has a friendly reminder that everyday is tax day and provides a list of the taxes that you pay throughout the year.
–Curious as to how we might fix some of our current tax problems? The folks at Angry Bear say that the solution might involve taxing soda pop.
–Looking for a little poetry to brighten your mood? Check out The Moderate Voice and the lovely ‘Tax Day’ poem that they’ve posted. And yes…it rhymes!
–If all else fails, may we suggest three of our publishers that are certain to help out on a day like today? Headache and Migraine News posts about the differences between a cluster and a real migraine, The Happiness Project is an entire blog devoted to posting ways of being happier, and if all else fails, head over to Drink of the Week to try one of the many tax-relieving beverages that he shares.
We wish you only the best on this (somewhat) stressful day and welcome any taxing comments you may have!

I first came into contact with Ronald Lewis when I sent an email to thank him for signing up for and installing a Lijit widget on his blog. This was back in early 2007, and means (if you do your math correctly) that Ronald was an early adopter back when we only had a handful. We appreciate his local support and the fact that Ronald always has wonderful things to say about our service. This post is long overdue and I’m happy to finally be able to sing his praises in proper blogging fashion.
From his professional bio, Ronald Lewis is a Denver-based author, technologist, speaker, blogger, activist, and entrepreneur. On his blog, he writes about how he landed a book deal, his suggestions for improving personal development, and how he’s managed to get so much press coverage. Recently featured by CNN and BusinessWeek for his future outlook on television and opinion of dating, he has advised individuals and businesses on everything from cloud computing to open source software.
From my own personal dealings with Ronald, he’s a super nice guy and just to prove it, brought his mom to the Front Range Blogger Meetup a few months ago. (How cute is that!)
How long have you been blogging and what made you start?
I’ve been blogging for more than thirteen years now (1995), well before the “automated blog” came along with WordPress and other blogging platforms. I was given a Unix shell account at Wayne State University, where I was forced to learn HTML to create my first homepage on the web.
After learning the basics of HTML, I posted random thoughts in chronological order, and so, my blog was officially born!
What has been the greatest thing you’ve gotten from blogging?
The greatest thing I’ve gotten from blogging is the ability to establish my voice and presence around the world. I am always in awe when I view my website’s stats to notice visitors from every corner of the globe. It’s inspiring to know that your thoughts, opinions, desires, and more can be instantly published and read by anyone. That’s powerful!
Of all the posts you’ve written, what has been your favorite and why?
Of all the posts I’ve written, my favorite at the moment is a story about XOShareholders.com, a website I co-launched in 2001 to launch a shareholder revolt against XO Communications. It was a successful grassroots campaign that netted the site some 2,300 shareholders owning 24 million shares in the company. It also landed me my first book deal.
Speaking of your first book deal, your book comes out this June. What is it about and how will you be using your blog to promote the book?
I do have a book coming out in June! It’s my first and I’m quite excited about it! Stick It To The Man is an unconventional how-to guide to leveling the playing field between consumers and the elite that often take everyday people for granted in business, government, and society.
I’m using my blog, Lijit, and other tools to cross-pollinate social networks, Amazon, etc. with timely information about the book, such as its release, events, tour, and more. The Lijit Wijit is especially helpful for visitors searching for information related to the book, because it easily mines disparate information into a single display. This is perfect for a new author like myself, because it prevents “flighty” Internet users from leaving the page to find what they’re looking for.
How has Lijit helped you to become a better blog publisher?
Lijit has helped me become a better blogger by exposing my content to a larger audience. This doesn’t mean you’ll receive a million hits in one day, but knowing there’s one more prominent property for readers to find your content is a compelling reason to use the network.
I appreciate Ronald taking the time to answer my questions and share his blogging experiences with us. Be sure to keep an eye on Ronald’s blog for more information about the arrival of his book. I’m so excited to say that I knew Ronald back when…
Maybe it’s because our logo is green or maybe it’s because we can appreciate a holiday designed to be celebrated with beer, but whatever the case, we’re happy to be spending this holiday with some of the best bloggers out there. Our publishers cover the spectrum when it comes to content and it’s always amazing to see what different people have to say about a day like today.
Some of our publishers like to see just how crafty they can get with green while other blogs celebrate the craft projects that may not be blessed with the luck of the Irish.
Of course, there are the blog publishers who share their favorite Irish jokes, their favorite pictures from Ireland or the real story behind St. Patrick’s Day.
And where would be on any holiday without appropriate food and drink? Whether it’s posting a traditional corned beef and cabbage recipe or something a little less traditional, like Irish Car Bomb cupcakes, your palate is sure to be pleased.
To wash down those delicacies, there is the ubiquitous green beer that comes out of the faucets in Ireland. While I may have just made that fact up, one of our publishers is making sure all of his readers know everything they should about beer and another one of our favorite blogs offers up a complete list of St. Patrick’s Day cocktails.
If you’re in the mood for dancing a jig or two, we have a publisher who created a special playlist just for today and another publisher who recommends the best places to enjoy traditional Irish music…in the Adirondacks.
Let’s not forget the important role that color plays in today’s celebration. If you’re into all things green, then our many publishers have you covered there as well.
We had one blogger share a fabulous Irish quote and taking a cue from her, we’d like to share a toast with all those Lijit publishers out there:
May the lilt of Irish laughter
lighten every load.
May the mist of Irish magic
shorten every road…
And may all your friends remember
all the favors you are owed!
If you’re Lijit and writing about leprechauns, shamrocks or other byproducts of Ireland today, leave us a comment and be sure to include a link to your post. Sláinte!

This post is courtesy of today’s birthday girl, Grace Boyle. Besides being an under-appreciated Gen Y blogger, she’s now 23 and most definitely appreciated around the Lijit office.
You never know what kind of shenanigans or *surprises* are going to come your way here at Lijit. One such surprise I received recently was from a loyal Lijit user, Andy Nulman. He is a fantastic, blogging entrepreneur from Montreal, but he is also an author and released his book Pow! Right Between The Eyes! Profiting From the Power of Surprise not long ago.
This is how Andy describes his book:
“Pow! is three things in one: the name of the world’s most entertaining business book, the sound your brain makes while reading it (akin to 1,000 lightbulbs over your head going off at the same time) and the difference between Holy Jeez! and Who cares? when it comes to your projects.”
Since he has many tricks up his sleeve, in January he offered 200 free copies (pre-release) of his book to anyone who requested via blog that they wanted it. Of course, I had to indulge, so on my personal blog, I sent a shout-out and a month later, I received his book.
Great idea for a book promotion, right? But wait…there’s more. I opened up the book and inside was a certificate to be the next literary giant, entitling me to the services of book agent Bill Gladstone, of Waterside Productions. Just a small sampling of Andy Nulman’s POW! Surprise tactic.
So, thank you Andy. Congratulations on your book release this month. All of us here at Lijit wish you the best of luck. You can follow Andy’s book release excitement on his blog and to check the book out yourself, it’s available at Barnes & Noble, Borders, 800 CEO Read, Books-A-Million, and Amazon.com.
