I read the whole thing through thinking "this doesn't sound like Dustin." I not sure I understand the custom of guest blog entries.
Why doesn't Mr. X publish this on his own blog? It's a decent article -- why not build up his own blog's reputation? Is he trying to reach a wider audience by pulpit-hopping? I was more inclined to click on the link because I saw the domain name and usually like Dustin's blog entries, so is Dustin leveraging his brand or just diluting it?
- symptic 17y agoDustin was the cause of Mr. X losing his job, so I have a hunch he feels like he needs to give the man whatever help he can. And the point of the guest post is to leverage Dustin's reader base to build attention to his name. His blog gets barely 1/50 the traffic Dustin does, I'll guarantee it. Now it's probably closer to 1/20. Sounds good to me.
