BJ Penn promotes STRIKEFORCE: Fedor vs. Werdum on UFC website

That’s not really the case, but it will seem that way to the average UFC fan.
The UFC has a widget on their homepage that displays the latest tweets from UFC fighters. If you look closely, you will see a tweet from BJ Penn that links to a photo gallery promoting this weekend’s Strikeforce card:
MMA NEWS “Image Gallery: Strikeforce Fedor vs. Werdum Media Workout” on BJPENN.COM: http://ning.it/bmzDe0
Here is how this happens. BJ Penn has a blog on his website, bjpenn.com . His blog contains a lot of press releases, and some of those press releases come from the UFC’s competition. I am sure BJ could care less about a STRIKEFORCE press release, but will have them posted in an effort to get more MMA related content on his website. This type of content will drive more traffic and create a higher page rank in search engines. In order to get more attention to his blog, BJ Penn links his blog RSS feed to his twitter account. What does that mean? Every time he creates a blog post, his twitter account will automatically be updated with a link to the blog and all 46,956 (as of 6/24/2010) of his followers have direct access to the blog URL.
Because the UFC promotes UFC fighter twitter accounts on their homepage, BJ Penn’s tweets will appear on UFC.com , and, inadvertently, the UFC and BJ Penn help promote this weekends STRIKEFORCE card.
Gotta love the world of social media!

I’m the owner of a forum called http://www.my8thgen.com and would love to talk to you about a partnership to create more blogs for my site.
Didn’t I read this EXACT SAME ARTICLE at another website yesterday? You know plagiarizing is a serious crime.
very cool web site. Afflicted me with a much better clues about the particular economic crisis. Gives thanks friend
This is my first visit and just wanted to stop by to say hello!.
Used to do it, lost 24 lbs, currently a size 4 and loving it, I actually do not repent it at all, I have strength right now to sort out and maintain the weight off, I was administered by a doctor, the only real adjustments I experienced were favorable, nearly a year later I still appear and feel superb and my health has never been better.

Fantastic blog site, lover! BJ Penn promotes STRIKEFORCE: Fedor vs. Werdum on UFC website | Inside the Octagon is basically one thing. I am establishing mine before long i will really backup aspects of your own house, legally obviously :)
I wish more people would write sites like this that are actually helpful to read. With all the fluff floating around on the web, it is refreshing to read a site like yours instead.
