About Nate Whitehill

Hey everyone, my name is Nate Whitehill and I have been blogging and involved with social media since January of 2007. In August of 2007, I co-founded Unique Blog Designs (UBD). We launched our business with the redesign of John Chow and Jeremy Schoemaker (Shoemoney) - who are two of the top 100 bloggers in the world. My business partners, Matt and Josh, and I now operate UBD as a full-time blog design and marketing operation.

    Thanks for the link! I hope your readers get something out of it.

  2. Thanks for giving my article the mention Nate.

    Well I am off to Orlando! But before I left I had to check the workings of the blog community and I see your powerful post…thanks for the mention! I’m glad you found value in it!! Blog-on!

    That SEO checklist is a good reminder. Every blog owner should have ‘Google Loves Metadata’ written in big letters on their wall. GOOGLE LOVES METADATA. :)

  5. Nate, thanks for the link. My publishing friends are still laughing at me over that post. None of the presses I work with NOT ONE is taking blogs seriously. They have had a monopoly on words for so long they simply cannot imagine any scenario where they aren’t gatekeepers. (Although the Christian press Thomas Nelson seems to be blogging with some real intentionality over the last few months. I just don’t work with them.)

  6. Mark, you have to watch this video: EPIC 2014. Eventually, they WILL have no choice, but to take blogging seriously.

  7. Nate, it took me a bit to make it back around to this. What a fantastic use of flash! When it mentioned the new freelance editors, I about choked.

    And I loved the touch of naming the generic user “Winston Smith” ala 1984.

    Also, I wanted to publically state my remorse for being so fanatical in my last post. A lot of presses understand that blogs are important, they are just cautious in throwing a lot of money at something that has an uncertain return. No one wants to be first, I think.
