Bloggers are very generous people.
Bloggers help other bloggers, business people, and website owners (often the same people wear all three hats) all of the time. Offering advice, services, and tons of links, bloggers are simply very giving people.
If you are seeking ways to reach out and give something back to the blogging community, perhaps an idea might be to make an unexpected gift to a blogger. The unsuspecting blog owner might be a new blogger, a long time read of yours, or even a blog selected entirely at random.
Some blog gift giving ideas might include:
* A link from your blogroll.
* A link from a post on your blog, describing another blogger's link (similar to what bloggers do every day) on a topic entirely out of your regular blogging beat.
* A review of another person's blog, written and posted on your blog.
* A guest blog post written for someone else's blog.
* Purchasing a product through another blogger's affiliate links.
* A surprise e-card.
* An e-mail complimenting another blogger on an especially interesting and informative posting.
* An offer to redesign a blog page for free.
* An offer of an SEO service free of charge.
* Offering to interview another blogger, either in a written post or as a podcast.
* Providing advice to another blogger who requests it, no strings attached.
* These are only a few ideas that could be used to share goodwill around the blogosphere, around the internet, and even around the entire world.
* Give someone a gift of yourself, expecting nothing in return.
Who knows, you might receive the greatest gift of all...
A new friend.
