Taking your winning team to the Super Bowl of blogging will require a bit of time and every day consistency, not by every member of your blog squad, but by one or two team players taking action everyday.
Identify your assembled group of bloggers, and assign days of the week to each person. A one on one defense could never begin to be effective on the Internet because of the sheer size of the opposing team. Each blogger on your team will create a "niche" blog to cover their zone and then spend an hour or two each week promoting their individual site.
Methods of advertising your site would be to use free ad sites, posting positive comments on others blog sites, submitting your site to a traffic exchange, linking your site on a link list with every other team member, and including your site url as a part of your signature file on forums and in your outgoing email.
Each member of your zone defense covers his zone by posting positive comments that add a contribution on the other members sites and then posts on other blogs on his topic outside the team using his signature file.
The team member then visits forum sites in his zone niche and makes new posts, comments, and answers others questions. Playing a zone requires less personal time because of the team. Many hands make lighter work is very relevant here.
Defining the "captain" early in the plan is a must. This is the hub blog site where everyone's blog is listed without fail, this is the site everyone will be attached to, then attach this site to heavy hitter sites. A heavy hitter site is one where many posts are made daily and many, many visitors come through. Being responsible for a certain area of the "playing field", your team will be counting on you.
Using zone defense in the Super Bowl of blogging reduces the amount of individual time spent on advertising one site. Work independently together and the ring will be yours.
