22 Ways to Create Compelling Content

21 February 2012 By Alan Straton

Here is MY challenge to YOU; “Come out from hiding in that faceless, gormless mass of noughts and ones that you call Facebook (and that I call group sex for amoebas) and start your own web site.”

Then join me and the few, oh we very few, in showing the world that Port Elizabeth is not only a great place but also houses some incredibly gifted and talented people who know how to have fun.

Send me your stuff and, so long as it is loosely based around Port Elizabeth and/or the promotion of our fair city, then I will showcase it for you right here on little old MyPE – I can only promise you fame, though – the fortune you will have to make yourself!

Pick up the phone if you want some help – fair warning I am the rudest bugger when answering. MyPE contact details.

Here are some ideas to kickstart you into action:

Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.

    The posting of this article was not only a way to share good content but also a way to see if MyPE could play with the big dogs. I ‘carefully’ chose the headline to be the same as what most lazy bloggers would choose – i.e. the same title as the release by Copyblogger – so that I could gauge the performance of MyPE against many other sites in the search engine results.

    I was most pleased to see that when searching on Google this morning and using the search term “22 Ways to Create Compelling Content” that MyPE was number 2 on the list – right under the original web site: http://www.CopyBlogger.com.

    See the attached image for proof positive.
