This is a brilliant concept! Create a beautiful graphic image that tells your story in a compelling and influential manner and invite people to post it on their blogs with a back link to your blog or website. This is absolute genius! What I especially like is that this ADDS VALUE to readers because it’s an important subject/issue. That’s the key for this to work. It has to educate and inform people and reveal something new or at the very least in a new way, as this does with the graphic elements.

Today’s post was sent to me by Peter Wilson of OZ Cakes in Melbourne.
