I woke up sick this morning. I feel fine, but I was targeted by The Indie Virus, which as the creator of this virus, Chris Pearson, states, is “The Virus You Want to Catch”.

It seems everyone is playing with all kinds of traffic techniques lately and The Indie Virus is another I’ve decided to go along with. Here are the instructions:

Participating in The Indie Virus is easy. All you’ve got to do is link to lesser known blogs from within a post (or two, or eleventeen), but you have to make sure that the anchor text of your link is The Indie Virus. This is critical, because in order to track the experiment, I’ll be searching for the phrase “The indie Virus” on common engines like Technorati, Google, and Yahoo! Oh, and also, make sure that you link directly to a post WITH A TRACKBACK and not to the site itself - it speaks louder!

I’m sending the virus to Cesar Gonzalez’s blog, Flee The Cube (Indie Virus Sent) because I like that he’s writing about entrepreneurship and appears to have the same perspective as I do (plus I’m returning some link love). I suspect many of my readers will like his work.

I’m also infecting my friend Erik Vossman with the Indie Virus, who’s blog is Can You Become Good at Everything? (Indie Virus Sent) . I’ve enjoyed Erik’s writing for a while because he does absolutely massive articles, some as big as mine! His best work is his rolling commentaries on the state of Internet business topics like monetization and blogging (etc.), all topics that are interesting to me and you will probably like as well.

Check out these good blogs and if you feel like it, post links to some other blogs you enjoy and spread The Indie Virus. Hopefully Erik and Cesar will pass on the virus too.
